Realizing, Father, that out into the world these tapes will go. Many microphones are stretched across this pulpit, which means that tapes are being made, turning back there, the Voice will be going into different lands across the world, around the world, twenty or thirty different nations will hear it. I pray for every person that hears this tape, that hasn't got that hope of Eternal Life, that hasn't got the baptism of the Holy Spirit, may It come to their hearts sweetly. Grant it, Lord.

And may I, if I never see them in this life, when I cross over into that land, may they run and grab me (and I grab them, and they, we holler, "Precious brother!" to one another), say, "I heard your tape on Ephesus, how that God predestinated us to Eternal Life, and it was on that tape that I received the Voice of God and was sealed away by the Holy Ghost into the Kingdom of God." Grant it, Father.

Heal all that's sick and afflicted. Get glory unto Thyself for we commit all this unto Thee in all efforts in the Name of Jesus, Thy Son. Amen.

That quote rings in our hearts as another reason these tapes are so important to the Bride of Christ. We count it a great honor to listen to the final sermon in the Adoption series with you today. Only eternity will tell of the impact that these recorded sermons are having on this dying world.

Here are a few highlights from today’s Message.

Ephesians 1:8-23

⁸ Wherein he hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence;

⁹ Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself:

¹⁰ That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him:

¹¹ In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:

¹² That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.

¹³ In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,

¹⁴ Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.

¹⁵ Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints,

¹⁶ Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;

¹⁷ That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:

¹⁸ The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,

¹⁹ And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power,

²⁰ Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,

²¹ Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come:

²² And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church,

²³ Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.

You don't know what you can do till you let Holy Spirit gets a hold of you.

---

Don't put off for tomorrow the things that you could do today. Tomorrow might not come for you.

---

But the purpose of this, is seeing your position in Christ, seeing that it's not something that you just stumbled into, or something that might have, you merited somewhere, but it's what God did for you Himself.

---

The church has got to be so perfectly like Christ, until Christ and the church can unite together, the same Spirit.

---

We got a ministry coming that's just exactly like the life of Christ. What does that ministry identify? The coming of the Lord..

---

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.

---

Waiting for the fullness of time, when the pyramid gets up to the top, when the full sons of God will be manifested, when the power of God will walk out (Hallelujah.) and will take every power that Satan's got away from him. Yes, sir, it belongs to him.

---

Oh, waiting for the manifestations of the sons of God (Hallelujah.), when God will make Hisself known, when they'll stop sickness, they'll stop cancer, they'll stop diseases.

---

"I preached It just exactly like Paul said It. I never divvied; I never took into any church creeds or anything else. I stayed the same."

And all of them screamed with one accord, "We know that. We're resting with assurance." Said, "You will present us to Him, and then we'll all go back to earth again to live forever." Oh, my.

---

THUS SAITH THE LORD, it'll take perfect love to put you in that place, for that's all there was there.

---

In the last days there's going to be two classes of people. One of them's going to have the Seal of God, the other one the mark of the beast.

---

After you have died, after you have passed into that land, that you're standing there with your loved ones, you are still filled with the Holy Ghost.

---

And He will speak someday, and the dead in Christ shall rise, and that body that I once lived in will resurrect into a glorified body; and I'll walk; and I'll talk; and I'll live; and I'll enjoy (Hallelujah) 

---

Well, maybe God brought you here to raise a family of children; out of that family of children may come another family of children, that'll be a preacher that'll send a million souls to Christ. You had to be here. You're here for a purpose.
