I SAMUEL 1:1—2:36 - Corps Notes - December 9, 1975
I SAMUEL 1:1—2:36 December 9, 1975 The Way International Outside of Jesus Christ, I don’t know if God ever picked a man who amounted to a damn, to begin with. Outside of Jesus Christ I don’t know of any man that God picked that had much potential. Moses, a murderer so to speak, got married to a real sexy unbeliever, the daughter of the priest of On. (This was Joseph – Genesis 41:45. Moses married the daughter of the priest of Midian – Exodus 2:16&21) Jonah headed the other way. All of those men of God were big “poopers,” but somehow or another in the fiber of their being there was some steel. And God saw that, saw it in Moses, saw it in Jonah, saw it in Hosea, saw it in Jeremiah. You know what He told Hosea? Go marry that whore. Imagine a minister saying that to some man today. Nobody would listen to those men. Or would they? I’m totally convinced that when the Word of God is spoken, the people who have ears to hear will hear. And I don’t give a hoot who that man or woman has been or what they have done in the past. I just don’t care, because God just didn’t care. And I get it from the Word. Peter - who would have ever thought that Peter would have made a leader? Matthew - IRS man. Boy, I go through those things in my mind and that to me is the greatness of our God. He has to start with what’s available to Him, but somehow or another in the frailty of man, at least some of them, there is that steel, that whenever God sharpens it, it’s sharp on both sides. And for the time that they hold forth that Word you just sit in utter amazement of their ability. Samuel had no right to be a prophet, as you’ll see. Again, the way the whole thing happened and everything else, you would have never thought that God could have blessed it. But He did. You would, have never thought that God could bless us, but He did.

Tweet Topic: logospedia,lp Format: mp3,pdf Publication Date: 12-9-1975 On Ephesians 4:25 where I want to begin tonight, or where we will begin tonight , the first part of what the Research Team gave me is the work that Walter Cummins published in our wonderful Way Magazine on "The Spoken Word." Also, as we cover Ephesians 4:28 tonight, I had all the information in front of me from another article that Walter Cummins has in the... has had in the Magazine. The first article on Ephesians 4:25 is entitled "The Spoken Word." The one on Ephesians 4:28 is "Workers for God." Both of these pieces of work by Walter are absolutely superb. And I believe that they should appear and will appear in our research journal GMIR whenever we begin publishing that. {GMIR Aramaic word meaning ' to perfect, accomplish , mature, complete, arithmetically to be divisible without any remainder.} And I noticed again
