(Compilation) the Cup - Part 1

And the father gave a kelp of all the dregs of impurity and wickedness in it. And he didn't give it to Gabriel. He didn't give it to Michael the archangel.

He gave it to his son. This is what he's come to do. He's come to consume iniquity.

And he's going to do it in the garden of Gethsemane by himself when everybody's betrayed him and his nerves are down and he can hear the enemy coming. And he's thinking of all the years he's demonstrated his power to the son of God. He's walked on the water.

He's raised the dead. He's cleansed the leper. He's put insane people.

And they didn't believe on him. So what's the difference today? Do we believe on him? Remember there wasn't one of the twelve disciples that ever had a bible. Not even the apostle Paul had one.

You know, you don't boast too much about your bible knowledge. It's going to face us at the judgment seat. I wonder sometimes, I don't have a big library, I've got a few nice books.

I was handling one yesterday and I thought, will these books rise up in judgment against me? You see, we're looking, I say again with all my heart, we're looking for a painless Pentecost. We want to invest a dime and get a million dollars back. Can you drink of the cup? We're able.

So they drank and they were crucified. Today's considered sadistic if you say people have to take up their cross even. Don't tell young people about the cross, they'll be discouraged.

Am I suggesting Jesus wasn't smart? If you're going to be my disciple, kiss the world goodbye. You see, when people are born again these days, they don't get separated from the world. Most likely they're pastors, the most worldly gathering around.

But if you're going to get what he wants to give, if you're going to get the real true baptism of the spirit, you have to drink of that cup.
