Question

What does the existence of a counterfeit prove?

Answer

The devil has just got a…The devil has a pattern of everything God has real. The Babylon was made a pattern of heaven, all the natural. See? Just exactly. There is a real genuine Christian, filled with the Holy Ghost; there’s a whole lot of hypocrites that just act like it. See, see? But that really…The hypocrite only declares the real person to stand out bright and shiny, doesn’t it? See? All the false and bogus things only declare the real. If we picked up a bogus dollar and I looked at that dollar, and you say, “That’s a bogus dollar, or counterfeit,” that only tells me one thing, that there’s a real one somewhere or that wouldn’t be a counterfeit. As long as there’s a counterfeit, there’s a real one. Is that right? And long as you see a act of the devil, just remember, he’s impersonating something of God, a real one somewhere. See? That’s right. Just remember when you see that, that’s what it is.
