Ep180 How To Have Gods Life Living In You Part 78
Renewed by the Word: Tony Alamo on Salvation, Spiritual Transformation, and Malachi’s Refiner’s Fire

Introducing Part 78 of How to Have God’s Life Living in You

In this recorded installment, identified as program number 180 and part 78 of How to Have God’s Life Living in You, Tony Alamo opens with prayer and introduces a message about refusing to be shaped by the world. He argues that Christians must instead be transformed into the likeness of Jesus Christ through renewal of the mind and continual submission to the Bible, which he identifies with Christ as the Word of God. From the beginning, he presents salvation, obedience, perseverance, heaven, and hell as the central concerns of the sermon.

Being Shaped by Christ Rather Than the World

Alamo uses the imagery of scrap metal, refining, and molding to describe spiritual transformation. In his teaching, a person begins as part of a corrupt worldly system but can be spiritually remade through repentance, receiving Christ, and allowing biblical teaching to govern daily life. He says believers must continue in God’s word throughout their lives rather than merely making an initial profession of faith. He repeatedly contrasts worldly ambitions, social approval, entertainment, possessions, and financial success with what he regards as the far more urgent question of where a person will spend eternity.

A Letter About Family Pressure and Separation from Worldly Influence

A substantial portion of the program concerns a letter from a young man in the church whose wife wanted to meet him at a McDonald’s while he was separated from regular ministry activity because of health problems. Alamo interprets the requested meeting as an attempt to draw the man away from the church and from his newly adopted religious commitments. He instructs the man to meet his wife only at church and uses the account to argue that newly converted believers must avoid influences that might lead them away from their faith. He also corrects another church member’s statement that the young man had already been made perfect, arguing instead that conversion begins a lifelong process of growth toward spiritual maturity.

Testimonial from Ghana and the Distribution of Religious Literature

Alamo then reads a letter from Accra, Ghana, in which a correspondent thanks him for a book titled The Messiah and for newsletters that reportedly encouraged Christian friends who had grown spiritually cold. The writer requests additional newsletters and Bibles for new converts. Alamo responds by discussing the ministry’s practice of sending literature in larger quantities to people and regions where there appears to be continued distribution and response. He presents the letter as evidence that his printed materials are helping revive religious commitment and support evangelism internationally.

Malachi, John the Baptist, and the Refiner’s Fire

The sermon then turns to Malachi chapter 3, which Alamo interprets as a prophecy concerning the messenger preparing the way for Christ. He identifies that messenger with John the Baptist and discusses Christ’s coming to His temple, which he understands both in relation to Jesus’ first coming and to believers becoming dwelling places for God. The central image is the refiner’s fire and fuller’s soap: Alamo says God purifies people from sin as silver and gold are refined, removing the remnants of their former lives so that they can offer themselves in righteousness. He connects this teaching with his repeated message that salvation requires repentance, purification, and continued obedience.

Warnings About False Teaching and a Closing Call to Salvation

Throughout the final portion, Alamo denounces beliefs and practices he views as contrary to Scripture, including alternative teachings about Jesus, religious devotion he considers improper, and sexual conduct he condemns through his interpretation of the Bible. These assertions are presented in forceful and sometimes inflammatory language as part of his theological message. He also connects current world conditions with biblical end-times prophecy and warns listeners that judgment is near. The program closes with a spoken prayer inviting listeners to receive Jesus Christ, be cleansed from sin, and begin the process of spiritual refinement, followed by information for obtaining a copy of program 180 and an invitation to listen to the next installment.

Hello again this is real pastor Tony Alamo and tonight we're in part 78 of
how to have God's life living in you and we have some letters and testimonials
here and this is program number one eight oh if you like a copy that will tell you
at the end of the program and I when you order to specify whether you want to
tape or a CD right now let's go to the throne of the Lord and ask him to anoint
this service father Lord the last message you gave was that we're to not be molded
into the mold of the world and the world keeps attempting to mold us into its
likeness and image for instance there is a Wells Fargo company that stated that
they chased our people away and when we were bringing them the knowledge of how
to achieve eternal life and they stated that that we found on the Internet that
they're interested in becoming part of the new what's the old world thought rather
than to allow themselves to receive the truth and to allow others to see the truth
that they may be molded into the image and the likeness of your dear son the
Lord Jesus Christ you stated that we're able to be able to mold ourselves we
have to choose to do it into the image and the likeness of the Lord Jesus Christ
by the renewing of our mind by the renewing of our M I N D S our minds so as I
mentioned rather you get through me how that is accomplished and that's by
subjecting ourselves under your word because in other words under your son
your son the Lord Jesus Christ is the word of God so those who believe on the
word of God the Lord Jesus Christ the Lord Jesus Christ the word of God shall
be saved God so loved the world that he gave us only begotten son that who
so ever believeth in him the whole word of God shall be saved the Bible plainly
says in the book of Revelation and also in the first chapter of John the Jesus
Christ is the word of God so to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ is to believe
on the entire word of God no liar shall enter the kingdom of God no
fornicate or no adult or anyone who worships anyone other than the father
son of the Holy Spirit cannot enter into the kingdom heaven anyone
worshipping any other God or God does such as Mary cannot enter the kingdom of
heaven there's only one name give it among men where by they must be saved
and that's the name of the Lord Jesus Christ the word of God Mary is not the
word of God she didn't she wasn't the mother of God she was the mother of a man
this man who was God who became flesh he became a man so that he could have
genuine human blood to shed because there's no forgiveness of sin without
the shedding of blood and the blood must be perfect it must be the blood of the
man who came to the world with God in him who never committed the sin of his
life and who laid his life down for us that ourselves might be saved
the Lord today we know that we have to be molded into your image and likeness
and that the world is squeezing us into its own mold it's like a junkyard that
you see down here so far as the human beings are concerned and you want them
to die out to be crushed like scrap metal and junkyard and you want this
refined like gold and silver you want to smelt us so that we can be molded into
your likeness and the way this happens is that we're saved and then we begin
taking up the cross and following you and pouring you Jesus who are the entire
word of God into our mind so that our mind and the rest of us is shaped conformed
not to this world back to the scrap metal but to conform unto the likeness of Jesus
Christ the word of God so when we allow the word which is Christ to
enter us and to meditate on him the word Christ day and night and continue on
till we go our bodies die then we are already sitting with Christ in heavenly
places because our mind is strictly on the word God the word Jesus and we are
immediately taken into heaven what a beautiful thing thought I asked that
this message and the message mentioned in Malachi which talks of us being
melted down like in a smelter smeltering plant and made into your image I
pray that this message gets through to the world that those in the world that
are unsaved will be saved in the church will get back to you because I know that
many of them have fallen away from you the church the only truth in the world
is Jesus the living God and that truth is given to us in the form of the word
God Lord I ask these things in the name of Jesus and everyone says amen amen all
right face the Lord now is the first letter of comma testimonial there's a
young man in our church that you know when a person gets saved their relatives or
their wives that don't like the gospel always want to come down and have some
coffee so they can tell the people that it's so sick that they now believe in
Jesus Christ the word of God even after the spirit of God God the father the
son and the Holy Spirit have entered into you they want you to come and have
coffee downtown Hollywood so they can counsel you with the council of the
world and the Bible says that love not the world because everything that's in
the world is to lust the flesh lust the eyes of the private life so he says no
don't let anyone take you out of the church it's your job now that you're
a Christian to bring them into the church so that there's a possibility that
their souls might be saved amen and they're not smeltered yet there's still so
much just like the junk in the junkyard they have to be noted that we have to
die the old us has to die out and we have to allow Christ to enter into us and
abide in us and us and him because he's coming back the Bible says to take
charge of his temple and the Bible tells us for that temple is don't you not that
you are the temple of God the home of God where God wants to reside and take
your body your temple he hit his home it's not your template more once he lives
in you but he is he wants to guide you for the rest of your life so that your
soul might enter the kingdom of heaven now that your transform body will enter
into the kingdom as well now just as it's impossible to tell how
beautiful it is in the kingdom of heaven it's also impossible to tell how horrible
it is in the lake of fire a lot of creatures you know they don't preach this
they'd rather tell you smooth things and talk about you know how you can attain
an automobile here on this side of eternity or a home or something like that
but you're not gonna take any automobile you're not gonna take any home into the
God with you you're not going to take even one
thrippens one center one thrippens or one widows might into the kingdom of heaven
so those of you that have given your lives to and knocking yourselves out to
make a fortune and then when you die in the Bible tells that you don't know
what's going to happen with your money if you leave it to a son that isn't too
bright somebody else is going to get it and here all you did was knock yourself
out all your life to get that money and you can't even take anything with you
the Lord looks at the heaven in the earth and they flew your way and there's
nothing left there's not even a bush for you to hide behind your standing
naked and alone in front of the Almighty God at the Great White Throne and then
you start saying why didn't I seek eternity why didn't I pay any attention
to where I'm going to spend eternity I spent only a lot of years going to a
university so I learned how to do something and most of the people that I
know they've gone to universities and never amount to anything because there's
so many millions of them that have the same knowledge and there's too much
competition with the people that have that make all the same knowledge if
there's hundreds of millions of people that know about one thing of you know
that's not a very good thing I'd rather be a person that there's nobody else that
knows what I know but then when I found the Lord Jesus Christ and I began
knowing the Lord and his word this is something that hardly anybody knows in
detail actually we're the minority in this world a very small minority of
people that know the word of God enough to be able to make it into the kingdom
of heaven but then there's something that know quite a bit of the word of God but
they'll never make it in because they don't do what the Bible tells them today
and a lot of them hide what they know in their earth and vessel in the earth
and they don't want to tell people about Jesus because Jesus embarrasses
them so much just mention God father the son of the Holy Spirit would make them
eyeballs in their little clicks they might go out or to the equals club or
and have beers on Friday night or something and watch out our vision at
the bar with the boys or they might have another click where they all play poker
or something that's become something that's quite popular these days you know
we're they have this celebrity poker going on television and everything and
so you want to be like the world and so you you I want to go steady poker or you
go to ballroom dance class because that's happening today and you want to be one of
the in crowd you don't want to be outside looking in but what you know what if
your soul goes out to meet the Lord tonight and every soul whether they want
to or not it's going to stand before God if you're not born again of the
spirit you're going to stand before the judgment bar of God the great white
throne and you're going to be naked and alone it's not going to be a big crowd
there each one stands there individually naked before God himself or herself and
if you're not born again the spirit or the new Lord says that you go out now the
king of heaven the new Jerusalem is four square and the good of hell in its
measures it's like isolated there's no possible way that that kingdom heaven
can be increased or it can shrink but the Bible states that hell has been enlarged
without measure there's no measure to it because God has been larger because the
entire world is deceived and the entire world is going there well you're of the
world Tony you might say no I'm not the world just like Jesus said I am not of
this world most of us there in the body of Christ we live for another world
which is the kingdom of God the kingdom of heaven but anyone everyone that's
still in this world that will not refuse this to be smeltered down from the image
of this world and the likeness of this world the image of this world is the
image of the beast and the likeness of the beast the world is the beast because
Satan is the God the Bible says of this world the world system that is but the
Lord owns the earth and he's taken it back and he's casting everything of the
world into a fire and it's all going to burn and if you're part of that world
that's the Bible says you are you need to either repent or you need to burn
that's what it means when it says repent or perish and so you know we get after
41 and a half years I've seen so many young Christians come in and their
families come up and they hire police officers and try to get them out they
said there's such a radical change in this person yes there is because the
Spirit God enters into them Christ enters in with his father by the Spirit
and they become new creatures the Bible plenty states that but they accuse us
of hypnotizing them brainwashing them using who do and do do and all these weird
old things that the lost the people of the junkyard are saying that happened
to these pitiful creatures that have now received eternal life immortality from
the Lord imagine anybody being that stupid all the Bible says that the
people in the world are that stupid matter of fact the Bible says that they're
dead in their sins and trespasses and they're more than stupid the Bible says
that they don't know anything they say Bible says that they dead know nothing
and those of you that are deceived by Satan and they you desire to stay in the
world of the world you won't let God break that mold with his word which the
Bible says is like a fire and like a hammer that break it the rock that mold
the pieces in the book of Jeremiah well then you're just going to be part of
the beast and you know in the mark of the beast the mark of the beast is that
you're worldly now the mark of Christians is that you're godly and that you must
be a brainwasher a mind controller a person that who drinks people into having
a more to life and escaping hell that makes us the world thinks that we're
weird creatures because we're not desirous of being flooded over with
hundreds of millions of different pestilences that are occurring on the
earth today what do you mean hundreds and hundreds and millions of people
actually billions of them they've got all kinds of things that are happening to
them the birds are coming the birds flew the Bible talks that there's going to be
one fourth of the world population absolutely destroyed by pestilences and
there's like hundreds of millions of people that are infected with them and
it's not going to get any better it's going to get worse and worse the Bible
says we're living in perilous times because people are lovers of their own
selves they they want to live their own life they want to do but they like
that's what their flesh likes to do and you know they pretend to be godly
people they pretend to be little lambs just like the Antichrist the Popes in
false releases I'll try to pretend that they're godly that they're they're
serving God but their God is the devil and if you're God is the devil there's
no possible way that you'll ever be molded into the image and likeness of
Christ which you must be by allowing your mind to be transformed by your
willing willingness to let your mind receive the entire Bible the word of
God so that your mind is not the old junkyard but it's the renewal of your
mind in Christ so that your whole body will begin doing everything that the
Lord says that we must do in order to enter the kingdom here we must live a
godly life now the law is not done away with we still are not to worship any
other God but the Lord is an abomination for churches to have statues well the
Vatican makes up all kinds of excuses why they do that that's just out not
defined so why they worship Mary the Bible says it were not to worship
anyone God is the Spirit and we must worship him thou shall not worship Satan
or anything other than God that your worshiping becomes Satan to you
no there's nothing wrong with your maybe there's nothing wrong with your wife
your son or your daughter or your uncle or aunt or your old granddaddy or your
grandmother but if you're worshiping them then that becomes Satan because
thou shalt have no other gods before you okay and so if that seems a hard thing
for you to do you will not make it into the kingdom of God
so right now I'm here this letter here tells of this young man is in the church
and his wife wants him to come his wife that is not saved one seemed to come
down to a coffee shop and talk to him just for a brief moment and I said well
now the Bible tells us to not let anything take us out of the house of God
you need to say not even for a visit look you know you have your code of
ethics in the Lord God has his now who do you think is right God or you God or
the world now the world the Lord says love not the world don't serve them if
because everything is lusty other sons say boom it's going to go down
and check come on baby let the good times roll come on you know I'm not there
you know I like you you know I love you in you know and I want to make you happy
and so it's not good for young baby Christians to be young baby Christians
should invite her out to the church amen and then when they both get saved
when she gets saved to but then they'll be able to live together in harmony and
then they can let the things that the Lord says are okay in marriage that they
can let that happen so in essence what she was talking about in the first place
about letting the good times roll no they can then let in godly love in
marriage they can let the good times roll that way amen if they're serving
the Lord but anything other than serving the Lord is subdue that that makes
sense to your highly intelligent mind but the Lord never tells us that we have
highly intelligent mind the Bible says that the stupidity of the Lord is smarter
than all of man's wisdom put together you know anything that's stupid but the
Lord knows it you know nothing because you're dead if you are dead and many
Christians they they think they're Christians but because the fact that
they don't believe these things that they are Christians but the Bible says
you must believe on what the Bible says the Lord Jesus Christ and then you'll be
sick believe on the Lord Jesus Christ the Word of God and thou shall be safe so
if you doubt the things that the Bible is saying you may not say a friend amen
so at least one person here on earth is going to tell you the truth and that
would be me okay I mean even if I get cut into hundreds of millions of pieces
that would be me I'll tell you the truth now you just listen to what I'm saying
about the Bible and if you want to know the scriptures and verses on the Lord
has given me a different message this evening but I'll be glad to do that
because I know I know the Lord I know the word I know Jesus and I'm saved I'm
going to continue on in the word until I so that I will be saved those who
continue to the end shall be saved you mean Lord does that mean that we those
that don't continue to the end in your word in serving you will not be saved
that's right the Lord is God is love but he's also he also kills people and
he also allows people to go to hell because he gives you the right way to
go and he lets you know he knows that you can find the left way to go there's
hundreds of millions of ways to go to hell but only one way to enter heaven and
that's through Christ the Word the blood of Jesus the Spirit living in you
through you and your continuance in the word to the end all right now that's the
way it really is there's one believe some other way you can but when you
reach hell the lake of fire you're gonna wish that you would have listened to
the Bible you would have listened to me preaching the Bible or anybody else's
preaching it the way I preach it all right so let's go now I've already told
this woman wants to meet him read it real fast the whole thing go ahead regarding
my wife presently I've been pulled for a season from tracking with the crews by
by phone my wife called and was trying to get me to have coffee with her at the
McDonald's at Highland and Hollywood this happens almost everything
don't thought that the mother they came up with goons and baseball best this is
because my son is not really my son anymore he's acting different he's
acting holy he doesn't smoke pot anymore this is horrible he doesn't
fornicate anymore he doesn't steal and lie that he's not a homo-sationally more
my daughter's not a lesbian anymore this is offer we've got to give him out of
there and Ted Borne watching and sending through a deprogramming camp you that
think that way you're gonna be sorry that you did such a thing as that or even
thought such a thing as that because this life is very short it's
vapory it's like a little vapor that appears for a moment and it goes away
you've seen people smoke cigarettes I used to smoke them like a chimney and I'd
like blow the smoke ring and then whoa puffed it would be gone and that's what
the Bible says our life is like it's like a puffing vapor grassy like we're
like shadows that appear for a moment and then we're gone and so it's better to
do the works of the Lord on this side of eternity and live in bliss each
only then to live our own life the way we think we should instead of knowing
by reading the words God what we're supposed to do then winding up in the
lake of fire forever more you say well God is a good God yes he is but he
kills and he allows people to go to hell because his fury in is what the fire of
hell is because if you reject his plan of salvation he's prepared a place and
enlarged it that is a place of fury and that fury is he's so furious that you're
rejecting his son that actually died giving you a chance of escape to escape
the fires of hell in the lake of fire on eternity he allows you to be there
because the Lord also has fury he is angry he has anger against us that
thunder knows of him and his precious son and that turned their back on
salvation because God has said done everything for us here on earth to get us
into the kingdom of God and then if you don't he has the place where he pours
out his wrath and his fury you need to read the Bible instead of listening to
all the Haniox that you're listening to because the Bible is the word of God
and why do you think the people in this world want to put the word of God down
is because the fact that they want to live without people telling them that
they're going to go to hell they hate it that we say homosexuals are going to
hell but we're saying that so that they'll repent and that don't be able to
go to heaven but the Bible is not true they say all the signs of the coming of
the Lord are at hand the Bible tells of Russia and Red China and the Arabs
rising up against Israel that's happening right now he says the mark of the end of
his coming would be when the Jews have been restored to Israel Israel from all
over the world they go back and then happen in 47 or 48 and now we're
sitting here with earthquakes happening the world is just overflowing with
pestilence and there's terrorism, murder, drive-by shootings, all kinds of
vile corruption that causes the world to be in the exact state that it was at
the time that the Lord drowned everyone in the world with the exception of eight
people so I would pay greater ten now of course Satan is fighting born again
Christians when they first get saved and they don't have enough of the word of
God in them to be able to argue with their parents or their love whoever
comes to them that they've been around even their pals their old friends will
come in and say come on man you can't be that stupid come out here where there's
all kinds of life there's nothing in the world but death I'm preaching life and
life eternal and life more abundantly when you're here I'm not preaching death
these people that want to have coffee with you are preaching death to be to
stay in the junkyard instead of being molded into deity into a member of
deities body can I finish off with this for other I told her since I'm not with
the trackers due to health problems that I cannot guarantee I could see her at
McDonald's my wife said that she only wanted to see me for a short period of
time but that's all that she doesn't really love me anyway amen I don't want
you around me for you know anymore but I just want to talk you out of your soul
amen right there tells the story doesn't it I don't want to be around you man
actually I'm probably making it with several other guys and you know who needs
you right well who needs you that's what I tell her if that's all you want to do
see it for me few minutes well then I don't have the time and day for you okay
get lost you're already lost so you don't have to tell her okay there's what else
she only wanted to see me for a short period of time about 25 minutes at
McDonald's and then she would take the trip into in the church band for the 8
PM service I try no no just get her if she wants to go to the service letter
come up there because you're very sick of person I think he's very ill we're
presently sending him to doctors and to we're taking care of in every way that
there is that needs to be taken care of I think he needs her knee operation is
that the one that needs to hear any operation and they say he has to have it
right away so we've sent him over to the best doctor in Beverly Hills and he
told him that he has to have this operation real soon and it's gonna cost
$4,000 now ask your girlfriend or why for whatever this is if he wants to put
up the money for your operation or one of those do good is one of them
devils in the world we come up with four grand for his operation we buy him a
toothbrush we buy some sheets and pillowcases and also warm blankets and a pillow
pillow case on it you know I think feeding three times a day will you
teach him the Bible and teach him how to get into the kingdom of heaven no you
won't because you don't know the Bible probably never picked enough in your
life and if you did if you open that Bible and read it you'd be scared to
death okay I'm gonna finish I tried to explain to her that there was no
guarantee that I could meet her at McDonald's as there are church rules and
procedures nevertheless she kept pressing demanding that I meet her at
McDonald's well you have to meet her demands are the law of demands to learn
why she would have been her soul and so if you do what she says she won't have
any respect for God I've taken a lot of flack from a bunch of devils in this
world for and instructing people this way but you know to please your reality
unsafe relatives is not godliness or to please anybody in this world other than
the Lord if the Lord tells you know then you better go with God that's why it's
important to know Christ to know Christ you have to know the whole word of God
because the whole word of God is Christ okay now see if I'm wrong or right or
wrong by reading the word of God and then the as you and then there's a
person in the church his older Christian told him that you're a new creature now
and you've well we'll get you read that later all right
I never said I would see her at McDonald's nevertheless I could have been more
firm with my wife at one point she expressed being upset with me I'm
mistakenly said sorry I'm not perfect Dwayne a Christian older brother told
me Barry you may have made a few mistakes in your conversation with your wife but
in God's eyes through Christ Jesus you Barry have been made perfect okay no
that isn't you have not been made perfect yet you become a new creature in Christ
Jesus but the Lord tells us to strive for perfection all right the Bible
tells us and I gave you some other instructions what were they to tell him
that do you think that Christ the Christ that I know is formed in a person the
second they have accepted Christ well no a person that just accepts the Lord
Jesus Christ is not fully mature the Bible says that we need to study the
word of God not so that we can grow up into the fullness of the Statue of Christ
to pull maturity we're not perfect at that time we have we have salvation and
if we continue on learning the word of God and knowing Christ more and more we're
gonna love him more and more because he's good he's holy and he's true and then
that wasn't the main thing I want you do you have to strive for perfection yeah
what you do have to strive already mentioned that there was one other thing
I told you I know she has to get it off the tape we tape all these things so the
Bible tells us that we grow in Christ and so he's not he's not perfect so the
other person the person that was telling that you're perfect right now is wrong
because he did he would say imperfect things and would not have the full armor
of God now we've become saved and then Paul says now put on the full armor of
God that means the full word of God so that we'll be able to fight these kind
of creatures that come and get angry with us because we won't do we won't do
their bidding like when they snap their fingers we're not gonna run down there
and say oh yes we're Christians and we're gonna do everything that you say now
we're gonna do the opposite of what you say just like for instance the world is
saying that we should get all the Bibles out of school tear down all the crosses
get rid of and I defy the world with that because but really the cross I'm
carrying the cross and that's the kind of cross it's a spiritual matter not a
physical cross that somebody manufactured put up but I'm carrying the
cross and the cross is to rebuke the world for saying things like this and
here's the one that told him this is also a baby Christian so I'm just saying
this on tape so that the people in the church will know what to say to people
don't be going around telling you you baby Christians that you're perfect yet
and you people that are in the church that are not doing everything that the
Lord says to do don't be saying that you're perfect yet either but you may not
be sinning I'm sure that you're not sinning or committing a point of
case in the doggy you're not a lesbian or a homosexual anymore because the Lord
made you a new creature you were born you say you were born with these these
problems but the Lord says that's why you need to be born again with the Spirit
of God you were born of water but now you have to be born of spirit you need to
be resurrected from the dead life that you were living before and become a new
creature in Christ okay and then what my wife called the church again and I
stood firm this time and told her unequivocally that she could only meet
at the church take it or leave it well that's good but what the older this other
Christian has been around a little bit longer than him said was wrong okay now
there's any other letters yes the first ones from Acra Gana Africa okay thank you
for sending me your book entitled the Messiah plus ten newsletters the materials
have brought spiritual awareness and is New Zeal for God's work in my life I
gave some newsletters to my Christian friends who had grown cold in the faith
and when I visited them they all expressed joy as they have all revived in the
spirit and are doing well as a result of reading your newsletters these people are
hungry for your newsletters kindly send about 50 newsletters and some bibles for
the new converts who are in need of it badly I'm very thankful that you will
send them to me may the Almighty God continue to bless you thank you Donnie
from Acra Gana West Africa there's a lot of people that have been
ordering a piece of literature now for three and four and five and six and seven
and ten and twenty times those sort of people if they order like five ten thousand
twenty thousand pieces of literature we sent it to them but those of you that
have never ordered literature before or distributed and we see no reaction from
your area well then we're not going a few order ten thousand trash one might
send you a thousand or five hundred but when they're gone if you reorder again
that will maybe it will maybe give you a thousand to two thousand or three thousand
maybe four thousand whatever the Lord tells me and then it's those are gone and
there's a big revival in your area then we'll send it in twenty thousand fifty
thousand whatever you want because we know that you're actually on the job
amen okay then we only have time how much time do we have left here twenty minutes
total so that's all we've got stacks of letters but and they all say how happy
they are that they're saved and everything else but right now we're going to read
the third chapter of Melachi which I was going to do the other day start at the
beginning please behold I am going to send my messenger okay this is God
talking this is his face gonna send his messenger to make the way of the Lord
clear or straight he's gonna clear up in everybody's minds what the Bible
really says because there was so much false doctrine and it's the same thing
today the Lord says that there's we have to beware of false talking you see this
to Vinci thing these are false prophets so to say stuff like that this is be
where our false prophets are saying that Jesus would marry to Mary Magdalene and
you know hit the Lord's bride is those of us who accept him into us as his home
we are the bride of Christ so brother the Christ Christ does have a bride but it
certainly wasn't Mary Magdalene they never had any children all these people
are the false prophets that the Lord warned us about many times in the Bible
five times alone in the 24th chapter the book of Matthew read the 24th chapter
the book of Matthew because it tells of the different signs that would be
happening just before he comes back to earth and it's that they're all here now
the Bible's been preached around the world all over and everything is ready
for the Lord I believe he has his hands right on the doorknob in the kingdom
heaven to turn it and then that make his appearance in the sky there's just a
few things the two witnesses of God and that's about it and we are in the
tribulations it's going to get worse and worse by Francis there is all pieces
been taken from off the face of this earth that's already been fulfilled
you feel peaceful when you're driving your car down the road today no people
tell me that they're scared out of their wits people weren't this way fifty six
years ago I don't you know nobody even worried about stuff like that you're in
the United States then okay so let's start behold I will I am going to send my
messenger and he will clear the way before me yeah yeah he'll straighten out
what's a true word of God is and that the Messiah is coming and he's going to
be here very quickly in just a few hours and Christ did appear so this man the
messenger that the Lord was going to send was he lied John in the form of John
the Baptist when John the Baptist was in his mother Elizabeth Swoon the spirit of
Elijah entered into him and he leaped in his mother's womb and he was Elijah so
all these false prophets that are telling you that Elijah is coming us not Elijah
the reason Elijah had to come back the Bible states that God took Elijah up
into the kingdom of heaven and he didn't die and so therefore all is appointed
unto all men to die once they have to die just once and after this the judgment
so that means if you just want to die once that you're not going to come back
as another human being or another animal or bird or anything because then you'd
have to die again but supported unto man to once to die just one time and after
this the judgment you put in the hell or you're going to have immediately there's
no other judgment there's just the final judgment that comes after you die okay
and then then go ahead and the Lord whom you seek will suddenly come to his temple
okay the Lord who you seek is talked about Jesus God the the Bible promised
that God was going to come into the world in the flesh and so everybody was
waiting they were seeking the research in the scriptures to find out when this
advantage going to happen but they didn't study correctly they weren't even studying
their Bible just like the people in the world today and so they had no idea
exactly when it was going to be we know we know when it's going to be because the
Bible tells us that we're going to know we won't know the exact hour or the exact
times but he tells us that all these things these different events would
happen in the world wars rumors of wars earthquakes pestilence famines floods all
these horrible events that you see taking place on the earth today and they're
going to get as I keep saying as the Bible says worse and worse and so it's
time to repent now don't wait until this one of the plagues hits you or one of
your loved ones that you loved dearly and that you would you know I know a lot
of people that have lost a loved one and they were very astute business
men and women and they became winos after that they just couldn't just felt
no purpose to live anymore they just wanted to die one was Dean Martin he his
son died in the airplane crash mr. O'Nacis his son was killed in
the airplane fast he didn't want to live anymore he died soon after so did Dean
Martin and it's just that way we I have preached in Wyoming wino missions in
Los Angeles and other places in Tennessee and so on and the places filled with
people that were at one time somebody and they just gave up because they just
had no will to live any longer and so read that line again and the Lord whom
you seek will suddenly come to his temple so we are the temple of the Lord so
he's going to he says that he's going to come to his temple we are his home so
when Christ came in he was seeking souls Susie had a vision of the Lord he was
walking down in a sewer because this world is really a sewer a chunky
addressing room for eternity and she didn't see the at first she couldn't tell
what it was it was way it was likely like the the labyrinth in France and here is
this like she saw this light going back and forth back and forth coming nearer
and nearer to where she was and all of a sudden this she got the look at his
face and the lantern was shining on his face and she looked at him she said Lord
it was the Lord seeking for souls in the sewers and in the gutters of the world
and there's people in that are in churches today one of the pastures here
in this area dressed as a bum when morning and there was a old buildings
outside of the church and he pretended that he was an old bum and he was
leaning up against wall and all these people just bypass him and didn't invite
him to church didn't ask him if he was hungry didn't ask him if he had the
place to live or anything and they all got into the church and they were all
seated and then he walked down the aisle and got behind the pulpit and said I
was the one that you people every single one of you people walk by me you are not
Christians what are you doing here in church today and unless you're on the
streets or in the marketplace someplace searching for souls to save then you're
not anything in the eyes of the Lord you may think you stuff a big cheese you
got some money some position in life and that you've got a nice comfortable
apartment or house or whatever and the Lord is just looking at you narrowly and
wanting to know if you're ever going to be a Christian okay then keep going and
the messenger of the covenant in whom you delight behold he is coming says the
Lord of hosts yeah in other words the Father and he's saying you know which is
Christ and the one that can save your soul is coming you delight in this one
to knowing about salvation then go ahead but who can endure the day of his
coming well who can endure the day of his coming when he really comes and tells
you what it is that you have to do in order to be saved when he tells you that
you've got to get up your former life when he tells you that you've got to
deny yourself and yet you've got to take up the cross and follow me are you
going to be able to endure that are you really going to get yourself safe are
you going to really do what God says go ahead and who can stand when he appears
yeah and who's going to be able to stand he says follow me be like me are you
going to be able to stand like Jesus are you going to let his spirit leg and or
end you with the Father by the Spirit and are you going to like when you're
walking the church and all your glad rags are you going to go up to that
bum and say hey brother are you hungry yeah had you would you'd like to go to
church I bet you that pastor would have been very proud of somebody would have
done that to him right right and here was the pastor and the Bible said is in as
much as you did it to one of the least of mine that bum was Jesus he said you've
done it unto me okay so I mean you know people look down your nose at the
people I got my I cut my teeth down in the skid row and the mission field
because I had so much slang from the entertainment industry that Susie said
when I give my testimony things people wouldn't even know what I'm talking
about so I have to go there and she would I'd get up and give my test going
the why know she said didn't even know what you said but she said and she told
me the things that I was saying that was wrong and so I had to learn how to
speak to a clear to where people could understand the things that I was saying
and then she'd get up and bring the message in a whole bunch of souls had
come down to the altar and I'd get down and pray with them and then finally I
realized that she was she was saying about me was the actual truth I remember
when I was witnessing the Elvis Presley we're in his home over on Peruga Drive
525 Peruga Drive in Bel Air I was talking in such slang that he's got he
started laughing because I said you know when the spirit of God was coming down
in that office I thought that there's got to be some cat in this room you know
some dude in other words it's hypnotizing me or shutting my ears off and
doing how could he do that you know and he says cat cat and he grabs his stomach
and he started laughing so hard and he rolled off of his seat I thought oh my
god the fear of God came into me because I thought I had done something so wrong
and the Lord knew that I did it innocently but I never used that term
again for the rest of my life that was a long time ago when I was a baby
Christian I came then what for he is like a refiners fire who's going to be
able to stand or to abide in that day because he's like pure and see the whole
world right now it's telling everybody that you can sit and still get into the
kingdom of heaven you people cannot abide because she's pure and he says you've
got to be like me you've got to come and follow me take deny yourself and take
it to cross the far you got to stop lying you've got to you can't be lusty you
can't be a lesbell or homosexual this is the same God that looks at the heavens
in the earth and they flee when he looks at him because he's so pure the throne
the great white throne of God is pure it's white it's clean the Bible says we
can't get into heaven if we have one spot of sin one blemish one block of sin on
us so who's going to be able to abide when he comes all your searching for him
to come oh Jesus please come because you know we're so happy that you allow us
to fornicate the Lord didn't save you so you could continue sinning he said
he that sent us of the devil well but our pastor you better forget about that
pastor that guy's we're just one of the many false prophets that prophets that
the Lord talked about in the Bible just like this guy that wrote the Da Vinci
code I mean there's people that have checked that has nothing but a fable you
wouldn't catch me spending money to read that thing or spending the time to
read it it's just I know that the Lord said there's false prophets and so I
just received that I don't even listen to any of this garbage about Judas
was a good man and the Bible plane he says that he said devil you have to
receive the word you have to receive Jesus the word of God if you don't
receive the word of God as Jesus laid it down and the prophets laid it down
you can't be saved receive the Lord Jesus Christ well how can we have eternal
life believe on whom with the believe on him whom the Father has sent that's the
work of God amen well what do we do what is the work of God Lord he says believe
on the one that God has sent here the one that is like Fuller spoke like a
fire a smeltering plant okay keep going I read that line again for he is like
a refiners fire and refiners fire isn't that what I said he's like a
refinery that you get boiled down you've got to put the whole word of God you
have to put all of Christ in to your brain okay keep going and like Fuller
soap like Fuller soap Fuller soap is white it's like the whitest purest soap in
the world then what he will sit as a smelter and care a smeltering plant he
will sit as a smeltering plant like he takes all you the junk and his word
takes all the junk out of your spirit out of your soul he select a smeltering
plant right right okay and some people just want you to believe that they're
so holy and everything when they've already confessed that they were
weasels when they were out in the world and they're not okay then what so read
that last line Fuller soap and a smeltering plant he will sit as a smelter
and purifier of silver and he will purify the sons of Levi and refinance
what do you mean repurify us does that mean that you can still go and sit huh
he wants to smelter yet he wants you to go through fire so that you can be pure
like gold amen spiritually as gold and silver amen then what he will purify
the sons of Levi he's gonna purify you from sin okay and that's what the whole
Bible says he that sineth is of the devil I see that my read the finish that
sentence because I see my time is up and we find them like gold and silver so
that they may present to the Lord offerings and righteousness well what is
the offerings and righteousness in other words that's you you we have to offer
ourself we have to lay on the altar and be burnt ashes in other words our whole
old life is gone we are not to live according to that we're not to continue
doing any of the things that we did before were ashes and then out of those
ashes or rises a purified spirit that is like the Lord Jesus Christ that can
happen the first step though is you're not going to be perfect but you're going
to be purified right now when you ask the Lord Jesus Christ in your heart this
is making a difference how many sins you've committed before but the Lord says
go and sin no more with less the worst thing happened unto you okay so all you
have to do to be to start out and salvation is to say this prayer before
the Lord say it you mean it with all you with as much of your heart as you have
to the Lord say my Lord and my God have mercy upon my soul center I believe that
Jesus Christ is the son of the living God I believe that he died on the cross
and shed his precious blood for the forgiveness of all my sins and I believe
that the God that you as God raise yourself up from the dead by the power of
the Holy Spirit which you are I you know wash all my filthy sins away Lord take
them away I opened the door my heart I invite you into my heart Lord Jesus and
I just want you to just completely cleanse me purify me let me go through the
fire I want to go through the smeltering plant that you set up for me I want to
wind up like spiritual gold and purified silver Lord in Jesus name you won't
turn me away Lord your word says so you said that anyone that calls upon the
Lord shall be saved and I'm calling upon you Lord therefore I know you've heard
me and you know you've answered me and I know I'm saved and I thank you Lord
Jesus for saving my soul and I'll just raise your hands and praise the Lord and
