But I'm going to tell you something, New Testament believer. I don't just want to have the Holy Spirit living inside of me. I want to have the power of the Holy Spirit upon me because God said that's what you need to be a witness in Judea. That's what you need to be a witness in Jerusalem and all these other parts of the earth. That's what you need to be an effective soul winner in Phoenix, Arizona. Hey, you've got to be filled with the Spirit of God. You go out there in the flesh, and I think it was Brother Stoppepede's message where Jesus said, without me, you can do nothing. If you're not abiding in this vine right here, and then you're going to go out soul winning in the flesh, let me tell you something, you wonder why you can't get people saved anytime. We all go through a dry spell, don't we? Sometimes God just has us out there warning people. Just giving them the warning, or planting the seed, or watering the seed, but let me tell you something, if these things abound in you, He said you'll not be unfruitful in the Lord. He said if these things abound in you, you'll cause you to not be unfruitful. And if you're filled with the Spirit of God, then if you're abiding in the true vine of Jesus Christ, you will bring forth much fruit. He said if you abide in me, and my words abide in you, He said you shall ask what you will, and I'll do it. I mean if you're abiding in this book, how can you be filled with the Spirit if you're not filled with God's word, is my next question. If He said the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. Get the parallel passage, Colossians 3 16, and Ephesians 5, the famous passage, 5 18, where He said, be filled with the Spirit, speaking to yourself in Psalms, in the name of the Spirit of God. You go over to Colossians 3 16, He says let the word of Christ dwell in you richly with all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in Psalms, in the name of the Spirit of God. It's the same statement. It's a parallel statement. He's saying look, it's one and the same. When God's word, Christ's word, dwells in you richly with all wisdom, that's when you're going to be filled with the Holy Spirit. And you can have God's word in you, and then preach it with boldness, and then sing God's word, and sing hymns and songs and songs that exalt and lift up God's word, that my friend, is the fullness of the Spirit. And you see, we need this today, we need a spiritual Christianity. You see, it's not a math problem. And this is what people, you know, it's math. Well, if I knock this many doors, and this many hours, and this many days, and here's how you start a church, and when you start a church, you get this book, and this book, this book is the book you need, but anyway, you get this book, and this book is going to walk you through it, and this is what you do two weeks before, and one week before, and these are the doors you knock, and you want your church to grow, you've got to follow this program, and you've got to do this, and this, and this. And you know what? It's not a math problem. It's the Holy Spirit. It's the Holy Spirit of God. How do you preach a good sermon? You know, do you just put together the points? You have a good book on, what, hermeneutic, homile, whatever that stupid, you know, homiletics, is that what it is? Homiletics. How do you preach a good sermon? A tear-jerking illustration from some book that you bought online? How do you preach a good sermon? You preach a good sermon when you're filled with the Spirit of God. Because it's God that does the work. It's God that worketh in you both to will and to do of His good pleasure. He's the one that works in you. He's the one doing the work. You are His best soul. You present your body a living sacrifice unto God so that He can use you to do His work. But He's the one doing the work in and through you using His Word preached by a Spirit-filled Christian, whether they're a man, woman, boy or girl, knocking on that door or talking to that friend, ladies, ladies, go out soul-ending filled with the Spirit of God and see a different result. Amen. Men, go out soul-ending filled with the Spirit of God. Children, be filled with the Spirit. Amen. Older men. I don't have anybody here that's older or anything. Those of you guys that are just a little bit older, this is for you too. If you were done in this life, you'd be gone. If you finished the work that He gave you to do, you'd be gone. If you had finished your course, you'd be ready to be offered up, but you know what? You're here because God has something for you to do and you've got to be filled with the Spirit of God.
