Dear brother, sister, there’s only one Church, and that’s the body of believers out of every church, that are truly believers in our Lord Jesus Christ. That’s the only Church there is. We do not come into the Church—into the Church of God. We become into this fellowship; the Baptist fellowship, the Methodist fellowship, the Catholic fellowship, the Presbyterian fellowship. We become in there by a working agreement, like the unions have in the churches. But in the Church of the living God, we do not come in by letter, by—by handshake, by water baptism. But the Scripture says, “By one Spirit we are all baptized into one Body.” A Christian, regardless of what fellowship we’re connected with, we are borned a Christian by the Spirit of God, and we become believers on His Name. Oh, how I love Him. And how I know that you love Him. And how my desire is tonight that He shall heal each one of you.
