I want to write a few things that Brother Howard Carroll said about the new birth, and add some of what the Lord has given to me as well,as the New Birth is so important.

Now Adam and Eve cut off our hand that could Minister the Life of God, as they lost it, but the second and last Adam joined our Hand back to God, so that the same life that was in that Body can be in ours, as Jesus said he that believeth in Me, the works that I do, shall he do, and greater, as His Life will be in many members around the world. You see if our hand was cut off and they carried me back to the Hospital and sewed my hand back on with the nerves, and blood vessells with the muscles, then I could use my hand once again to Minister, and I could place my hand on anyone and pray the prayer of Faith, and the same healing life could flow through me as it it did through Jesus Christ.

Now you know what lead weights on a tire can do, as it balances the tire to run smoothe. Now a fisherman could melt that lead into sinkers and catch fish with that same lead, but just molded into a different mold. That is the same thing, same life that God molded into the womb of Mary, is now molded into another mold to do the same works.

You say I am born again ! Well, in one way that is not right, as you look this way; You died and Christ wss born into a different stable, a different Vessell bearing the same Life and works, and continue the work He started years ago.

The Earth will be born again and Christ live on it in the flesh with His Family, but look how it is to be.

#1------The first 2,000 years, the earth was baptised with water in the days of Noah.

#2----The next 2,000 years, the earth was Baptised ewith the Blood of the Lamb, and made claim to it.

#3-----Now it is almost 2,000 years again, and one day soon, the Holy Ghost Fire will strike the earth, and Hot Molten Rock from the heart of the earth will belch and purge, and burn off all the evil and man-made stuff, and the Lord then will come in the flesh with His Family and live on it...See how God does with the whole earth? He does the same with the individual as well.

Take a grain of corn, and you plant it with the moisture in it that is was born with, and you plant it, it will rot. You see it has to die to the Life it was born with, and then you plant it, and it will be born again. The Corn takes four Months to have a harvest...Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, then the Upper room, and that makes 120 days, and the Corn plant is in the shape of a Pyramid, and the Grain is called, "An Ear."

Take a Butterfly, and when he is born, he is an ugly worm to type the sinner, and eats up the plants all his worm-life, but when he spins himself into a cacoon, he dies out to the world, dies out to the worm-life, and is born again. Now he polinates the plants so they too can multiply and be born again as well. He now has a long toungue to reach the necter way down in the flower, or now as a Christian can speak the Word of God.

I knew a Forset Ranger who was Wesley Hacker who told me a great thing about a Wild Cherry Tree that I liked. He said, "If you will notice on the fence-line a lot of Wild Cherry Trees, and what causes that is this; a wild bird eats that ripe cherry, and the acid in his stomach destroys the outer shell, and then when is bowels move and drops that seed to the ground, it will sprout and be born again, or grow into a Cherry Tree." So the pulp or the outer shell must rot before the New Birth, and that tells us what True Repentence really is. Now that helps us to understand the flesh has to be crucified and die before a resurrection accurs.The old Soul must die, and a new Soul or a new nature make a new creation of the individual.

Just imagine a small child playing on the yellow line on a highway, and the mother gets him and spanks him good. As time goes on, that child only connects that highway with pain on his back-sides...but one day his mother says, son take this money and go to the jiffy and gete me a loaf of bread...Now it is the same road, and is the same boy, but now through training and growing he understands what the road is for. The Christian then needs to pray and read the Word, and grow up in Jesus Christ, for God wants to mold you into His Image day by day.

He that Heareth My Word and believeth on the Holy Ghost has passed from death unto Life..Not the sound now mind you. He that understands My Word and believes on the Holy Ghost will pass out of Spiritual death unto Spiritual Life. Jesus said also you must be born of the water and of the Spirit to Understand the Kingdom of God..See is to understand, as Eph. 1;18 says that the eyes of our understanding being enligbhtened we then can know the things of God.

All that God was He poured into Christ, and all that Christ was, He poured into the Bride, His Elected Wife, and she takes that and gets prepared for the wedding reception one day soon...The Wedding Supper, not the Wedding, as that has to happen in this Life by Ingesting the Word and the Spirit into your inner person.

When a baby is born, the water breaks first, then the doctor spanks the baby, and it takes its first breath, and is botn again. While i n

the womb of its mother, it lived off the vitamins of its mother's blood, but when born again, it lives off his Father's blood.Amen.

Then if we live in Him, Move in Him, have our being in Him, we will grow up Like Him, as the same Life that was in Him, is now in us.

So remember the most important thing, and it is this; if there is no death, there is no resurrection. If there is no death to the lusts of the flesh, there is no resurrection into the Spirit of God. Matthew 16 is where Jesus said he that will come after Me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me, and make sure you deny the life in the flesh you have inherited by your parents in the garden, and then only will I come to live in you.You can join church, make a decision for Christ, but unless you crucify your flesh, you can't have the New Birth.

11 Timothy 2;11--It is a faithful saying:For if we be DEAD WITH HIM, we shall also live with HIM: If we suffer, we shall also reign with HIm:if we deny Him, He will also deny us. If we believe not, yet He abideth faithful: He cannot deny Himself.

Jesus said in John 5, that The Son Quickeneth whom He will, or bring to Spiritual Life, as on down in that chapter, He says, don't marvel at that, as one day all that are in the grave shall hear His Voice..The thing of it is, if you will agree with His Word, fear His Word, Love His Word, and honor His Word like it is written, He will send the Great Holy Ghost down, and burn up that old Soul of yours, that old sinful nature you have, and then you will have a conception or birth into the Spirit where you can worship God in Spirit and in the Truth. You will still make mistakes, but the Holy Ghost will confront you, and you will repent, get up, brush yourself off, and sstart again on that Heavenly Highway. But if you just lay there, say it is no use, there is no hope for you.

So unless you are dead to sin, the Grace of God will not give you the New Birth. I give the Scriptures, and you make your decision.
