Once More

What have we got, the Pentecostal people today? Too many Rickys. That word, Elvis and Ricky, you never heard of that in other days. It’s a word, it’s the name for this day. It goes with this. It means something.
You say, “A name means nothing.” Then why did He change Abram’s name, to Abraham? Why did He change Saul’s name to Paul? Simon’s name to Peter? Why did He change His Own Name?
Why did He change Jacob to Israel? Not until he wrestled with the Lord, not until he overcome. And when Jesus overcome death, hell and the grave, the Bible said, “He had a new Name.” And when Jacob overcome.
And if the Church can overcome, she will stop saying, “I am Methodist, Baptist, and Presbyterian.” When she can overcome her creeds and the world that’s drawed her in there, she’ll come back to the Bride of Jesus Christ, Mrs. Jesus Christ. Amen.
