Question

What is rapturing faith?

Answer

And I believe we’re on the borderland tonight. I was wondering about all my meetings and things, how I had to cancel them out. I truly believe, before the Church can have the Rapture, it’s got to have rapturing faith. We can’t even have faith for Divine healing, let alone rapturing faith. Got to hav...

Question

Do people become angels in heaven?

Answer

I used to think, Mom used to tell me (excuse me, Mom, that was before you knew better, too) that we’d have wings and fly around up there, you know. And, why, I like to eat, drink, shake hands with people, fellowship. I thought, “Oh, my, that’ll be finished then.” Oh, no. I found out God never did ma...

Question

Is the antichrist spirit Communism?

Answer

And, watch, it’s moving right out today in a terrible force. Oh, it behooves you, my brother, sister, to consider what you’re listening at, and don’t you never underestimate Satan’s power for deceiving. Don’t you never underestimate him. He’s smooth as he can be. And the antichrist spirit isn’t Comm...

Question

Does a Christian die?

Answer

We don’t believe in death of Christians. You can’t prove to me that a Christian dies. The Blood of Jesus Christ takes away sin; it doesn’t cover it. The believer goes in the Presence of God now.

Question

What is holding back the coming of the Lord Jesus for His Church?

Answer

I believe this: that in the great realms of the Church, the only thing that’s holding off the coming of our Lord Jesus for His Church, and setting up of His Kingdom, is the differences between the full Gospel people. That’s right. As long as one say, “I belong to this; I belong to that. I received t...

Question

How is Divine healing now connected to the resurrection of the dead?

Answer

No wonder David cried out, “My flesh shall rest in hope, because He will not suffer my Holy One to see corruption, neither will He leave His soul in hell.” All back there, all pointing to Calvary. Then, in Jesus lays the complete of salvation, the complete of Divine healing, a…If there is no Divine...

Question

What does a person go to hell for?

Answer

Here not long ago, I was preaching in a Methodist church, one night, and I thought the Lord was firing me up good. And I was just a preaching away, and I said, “You don’t go to hell because you get drunk. You don’t go to hell because you commit adultery. You don’t go to hell because you smoke cigare...

Question

When God takes a prophet off the earth, what happens to the Spirit that was on him?

See, always remember this, God takes His man off the earth, but never takes His Spirit; His Spirit comes right back down this way: It come upon Elijah; went off of Elijah onto Elisha; off of Elisha, and come on John the Baptist; off of John the Baptist, is predicted to come again in the last days; t...

Question

What do the devil's counterfeits show about the things of God?

Answer

Course we know the devil has patterns and types of everything that God has. Everything that Satan has is secondarily that he patterned off of God. Every bogus thing has—has something original to be made off of. If there was no real dollar, the bogus dollar would be the original in the first. And as...

Question

Does God send people to hell because they are sinners?

Answer

Now, then if He should take me as His servant. And now, He never spoke this directly to you, but it’s just the same as directly to you. But He never said, “Mrs. So-and-so at a certain age and a certain time…?…” But then, He has a prophetic gift that He sent into to His Church in these last days to s...

Question

What happens to a Christian at death?

Now, tonight, the Holy Spirit is in His Church to fulfill what the New Testament said that would come to pass in the last days.

Question

What kind of spirit is the antichrist spirit?

Answer

Here’s what it is, the antichrist spirit is not the communistic spirit. The antichrist spirit is a religious spirit. I have delivered my soul; that’s what God was wanting me to, right there. Amen.

Question

Will there ever be an end to war among the kingdoms of this world?

Answer

When Jesus was taken up on the high mountain by Satan, he let Him look down through the stream of time and showed Him all the world and the kingdoms thereof, and said, “They’re mine.” Is that right? “And I’ll give them to You if You’ll fall down and worship me.” Is that right? Jesus knowed He’d inhe...

Answer

You know that’s one of the greatest signs we have today of the coming of the Lord, is see those—those Jews returning from across the world. It’s a wonderful.

Question

How is Divine healing related to the resurrection of the body?

Answer

And if there is no Divine healing now, there is no resurrection of the body. Divine healing is the earnest of our redeemed body. Did you ever think of that? If there’s no Divine healing, then when you go at the grave, that’s all of it. You’ll be there forever, and your dust will go away, and there’l...
