God's Wrapped Gift

60-1225

Therefore, Christ is just as rejected today as He was back there. There’s no room, tonight, in our good churches, our big churches, our fine churches. There’s no room in our religious circles, today, for a Holy Ghost meeting. They don’t want It. It, It belittles them in the sight of the classes of the country. It belittles them to think that they humble themselves to come down to an altar, to cry and to tarry there until they’re filled with Power from on High, to rise up from there with newness of Life; to let women let their hair grow out, and act like women ought to; to make men throw away their cigarettes, and to quit their drinking, and treat their families right. It’s too much for them. So they hold on to their creed, of their church, instead of receiving God’s Gift, God’s Christmas Gift.
