Stature of a Perfect Man Jeff. IN 10-14-62 p.48-2 When a man possesses these kind of things, thentheHolyGhost comesuponhim. No matter, you might speak with tongues; you might impersonate any gift that God's got. You might do that, but until these virtues here go into www.phoenixtabernacle.org

Now, you maybefilled. Now, watch this evilspirit. When he goes out, he walks in dry places hunting a place to find rest. The Bible said www.phoenixtabernacle.org
he could not find it. So he says, "I will return back to where I come out of." He goes back to this person that he was once in, and he finds the house all swept, cleaned up, sanctified, all condemnation gone, oh, just a real happy believer. Butit'sempty, and he said, "Come www.phoenixtabernacle.org Oneness of Unity Waterloo IA V-2 N-7 Tues. 58-0128 (8-6) p.2

Then he returns again with seven other spirits. See? Now, if the good man of the house isn'tthere to war him off (that faith) when he www.phoenixtabernacle.org
returns...“I don't care how much I feel, what about it, I know I'm healed,” that shuts him out. Now, you may get real sick, because why? It's like an infection in your body. The growth dies, and then it rots. And the heart, every time it beats, it goes through and www.phoenixtabernacle.org
