Episode 364: The Family Altar Audio Devotional – Day 330

Episode Summary:

But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: (1 Peter 2:9)

53 People come in and say, “Them people are crazy.” Sure they are; the wisdom of God is foolish to man, and the wisdom of man is foolish to God. They’re contrary, one to the other.

54 But a real Spirit-filled church, full of power of God, sitting together in Heavenly places, offering spiritual sacrifices, praises of God, the Holy Spirit moving among them, discerning sin and calling out the things that’s among them that’s wrong, straightened out and making it flat and level. Because why? Always in the Presence of God is that bloody Sacrifice.

55 Now remember, we went through it this morning. You wasn’t saved by the Blood, you’re kept saved by the Blood. But you were saved by grace, through faith, believing It. God knocked at your heart because He predestinated you. You looked up and believed it, accepted it. Now the Blood makes an atonement for your sins. Remember, I said, “God does not condemn a sinner for sinning.” He’s a sinner to begin with. He condemns a Christian for sinning. And then because He has condemned him, Christ took our condemnation. So there’s no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, that walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. And if you do anything wrong, it isn’t wilfully. You don’t sin wilfully. A man that sins wilfully, goes out and wilfully sins, never come into that Body yet. But a man that’s once in there, he’s dead, and his life is hid in God, through Christ, sealed by the Holy Ghost, and the devil can’t even find him, he’s so far back in there. He’ll have to come out of there before the devil can ever get him. “For you are dead!”

56 Tell a dead man he’s a hypocrite and see what happens. Kick him on the side and say, “you old hypocrite, you,” he’ll not say a word. And that’s right, he’ll just lay there.

57 And a man that’s dead in Christ, you can call him hypocrite, call him anything you want to, he’ll never rise up about it. If anything, he’ll slip off somewhere and pray for you. That’s right. But, oh, some of them’s very much alive. That’s what I think about, we’re supposed to bury dead people. Them that’s dead in Christ, we bury them in water. Sometimes we bury too many people that’s alive, too much malice and strife, and there’s too much in the church. But we can’t separate that, but God does. He knows His people. He knows His sheep. He knows every voice. He knows His children. He knows who He can call out, He knows who He’s predestinated. He knows who He’s given these things to, what He’s making Hisself known through. How He…God can put confidence in His children, on what to do, knowing that they will do exactly.
