pg4-5

Right away, Jesus began to show them something was changing.  The old -- there was a difference between Christianity and Judaism, the Law.  These things (sacrifice for salvation) were to pass away, something new was coming [salvation by faith in Jesus Christ]. And when He spoke it, He began to put on a new Spirit! And He told them, no man putteth a new garment -- that's what Jesus brought to them -- onto your old system lest it just mix in there and both of them are polluted. And the old garment is wearing out, waxing old! [animal sacrifice corruption through money changing schemes] So He said, behold no man putteth the new garment that I have got upon the old.

​

Now John the Baptist came preaching in the wilderness with great power, but all he could do is put one more patch on Judaism. Because he was not the Messiah -- he only spoke the Messiah would come. And they listened some to John, but Jesus they were ready to kill! At the time.  But he had many followers, John did. So John could put another patch on Judaism. But Jesus said - now here is the Messiah -- and He cam and He said this new cloth, the new garment will not fit on the old!

​

And He said neither do men put new wine in old bottles, lest the bottles would burst! And He began to speak in parables. Now, when He brought Christianity -- that was the new garment. And the Judaism system was old -- it was wearing out. He was going to bring to them words of wisdom and deliverance from God, and salvation to men which the Law and Judaism could never do. It could never bring it [everlasting life] -- Jesus was the sacrifice and He would come and bring deliverance to them!

​

Today, in religion we can see this, there has been, by the power of God, different movements that started with Him. All through history for thousands of years and they would was old -- they started with God but subsided. Then the Lord would send a prophet or He would send a revival or an evagelist and when He did it would seem to hold them together just a while longer. Then men would move and another work would start and it would hold together like a patch. And today, the Church has been patched up so much it's sort of like an inner tube. It won't last. We need a new garment! That's what's coming! "This new garment of praise and power and life will fit us!"

​

It's the anointing of God, the Light of God, and this will go right into the robe that we are to receive from the Lord. A robe of righteousness -- we shall be like Him -- and have a crown of glory! The Bible says this! How many of you believe it? This is coming!
