A-…God gave Abraham the promise, and he believed the promise, and it was reckoned to him for righteousness; but He give him the sign of circumcision, as a seal of the promise. Hallelujah! You believe God, by faith, that you are saved, and accept Him; and, whenever you do, God gives you the Holy Ghost as the seal of the promise that He promised you. The Holy Ghost is a gift of God, that’s right, that circumcises the heart, cuts away the surplus flesh, and makes you a new creature in Christ Jesus. Amen. All right, there you are. It’s nothing you had to do with, yourself, it’s a gift of God. And when you believe correctly, God gives It to you. It’s by faith. You…Now, faith isn’t what It is.
