Question

What happens when a revival is turned into an organization?

Answer

Now, let me tell you something, friends. Then when Jesus came down to the Jordan to be baptized of John, John saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, went upon Him, He was filled with the Spirit of God, then into the wilderness He went to be tempted forty days, came out, and the miracles and signs begin to follow Him. The Bible said, “These signs shall follow them that believe.” It’s always, signs and wonders follows God’s Church, everywhere, Always has, and always will. You can’t never…You can take history wherever you want to. God has sent revivals and revivals; and come up, and then they’ll make an organization out of it, and then they can’t stand that, of course. Then the first thing you know…There has never been an organization that ever fell that rose again. God always moves His people on away from that thing. That’s right. That’s true. God’s calling today a people together. I believe that with all my heart, not out of your church, but together in heart. Let the churches alone. They’re fine, every one of them. But what we need is an old fashion, Saint Paul’s revival, and the Bible Holy Ghost preached in them churches with power; straighten up those members again. Amen.
