God establishes the balance between our being spiritual and our administrative functioning. To be only spiritual may be of no earthly good. TO be working mechanics may be of no heavenly good. The extreme emphasis of either the spiritual or the functioning creates an imbalance that God must always deal with. (71 1/2 min.)

After a thorough but brief summary of the death and life of the spirit, soul and body, we received and imparted it in faith. The end of flesh indeed comes and the war between flesh and spirit must be finally resolved. We cannot enter the Kingdom half alive and half dead. This is a must. (73 min.)

ANXIOUS LONGING OR EARNEST EXPECTATION
July 29, 1979 Sunday A.M. Shiloh
We’re in the siege, but ours is not a frustration, but an “earnest expectation” of the deliverance from futility. Our prayers are not passive, but as aggressive as were Elijah’s when he prayed earnestly. The sovereignty of God and the earnest expectation of the believer combine to bring the spiritual breakthrough that the Lord has promised. (42 min.)

EARNEST REJECTION
July 29, 1979 Sunday A.M. Iowa

This is the fourth message that has come during the Feast of Pentecost with the California churches that emphasized the way the Holy Spirit changes our spirit. There is no discipline to effect change but the focus upon the Lord. The Holy Spirit comes to testify of Jesus, and that revelation is the key to our becoming like Him. We become what we see in Him.

The practical sequel of the Sabbath Pentecost service was this teaching on our breakthrough from the variables of the soulish realm to the certainties of the spirit realm.

June 2, 1979 Saturday A.M. Ana.
The outpouring of the Spirit at this Pentecost might well open up the age of spirit, better known as the Kingdom age. To experience Pentecost on the soul or fleshly level is to miss the fullness and permanence that comes on your spirit level. At the coming of the Lord may we be blameless in all aspects of our being: spirit, soul and body. This is the most important Pentecost message that has been preached for several years. (70 1/2 min.)

This word like the message, “Are You Locked In?” unfolds the deadly peril of a bitter spirit. These two messages could have prevented most of the problems encountered in our spiritual warfare. This word also traces the effects of bitterness in the lives of the embittered and in the lives of those close to them. Bitterness immobilizes a believer like the sting of the hornet puts his prey in a state of suspended animation. This is a must. (57 1/2 min.)

I’LL EXPLAIN YOU EVERYTHING
January 9, 1977 Sunday A.M. Ana.
This basic one star message is a good low-key but scriptural explanation and analysis of the Walk now. This is a good tape to give to visitors or “babes” who are disturbed but hungry for God. It answers questions about total intercession, free jubilee music and our enthusiastic but original worship. A good word for Kingdom evangelism or just to give a visitor. (30 1/2 min.)

Religious flesh tries to produce what God requires but only brings forth a facsimile, a phony, human image of the righteous, spiritual being that God creates of us.
