Then when Jesus…About the time that God was going to do something…Before God does anything He always sends mercy before judgment. He always sends warning. And when man won’t heed the warning, there’s only one thing left, that’s judgment. That’s right. “If you die in your sins, where I am you cannot come.” God sends preachers and everything and gives warning, sends His Spirit and warns the people. Now, before He sent Jesus, He sent a warning to the people to make ready His coming. And may I stop here just a minute to say this with a deepest of sincerity: I believe the things that you’re seeing taking place today across the world, is a warning: Jesus is coming. Down in Korea, the Methodists and Baptists, and them down there are having such a revival, they’re receiving the Holy Ghost and speaking with tongues, and having healing services, and everything else, in Korea. Let the pressure come on brother, it’ll push you to God. You don’t have to wonder whether you’re a Methodist or Baptist; just start praying; God will take care the rest of it. You just start tak…Just pray, get close to God.
