<TITLE>08. Par 28-30</TITLE>L-28 Notice. Now, he wanted Him to go with him to pray for his son, and He did not go. But He said, "Thy son liveth," and the man believed it. Now, if the man had not believed it, it would not have been so. But Jesus had already questioned it to him to know that he had faith enough.
Many of you has noticed in the meetings when the line's passing through, once in a while you'll find one that's got faith. You stop with that person just a moment, just enough to stir that faith up just a little, and there it takes a hold. See, if you can get them to believe.
Now, the one... The hardest thing that God has ever had to do, is to get one mortal to believe another. It would be easy if that Angel that spoke to me was standing here on the pulpit tonight telling you this, why, you'd run up to Him and worship Him. You'd want to fall down to His feet. He was standing here looking the way that I seen Him when He comes: great stern man standing there. I know how I feel.

L-29 But friends, I never done nothing in my life, any miracle, any of these miracles in these twenty-one months that I've been out, where thousands of them has been performed. I've never performed one of them. He is the One Who does that. See? He's the One. I don't have nothing to do with it. He's the One. I'm just a mouthpiece for Him. I just speak what He says. How would I know when people had faith, and people who did not have faith. And how would I know what you done ten years ago, or twenty years ago. I would not know that. It's God.
So the hour has come for the repeat of the Bible, and the fulfilling of the Word. Now, God promised that He was going to send a former rain and a latter rain. And He promised the former and the latter rain in the latter rain, in other words, a double portion. Like the garment of Elisha. When Elijah dropped it, Elisha picked up and had a double portion. He was a type as a type of the Church and Christ. Christ was taken up. And the same Spirit that was upon Christ is on the Church tonight, the Holy Ghost. See? "Nevertheless, if you see me go away," said Elijah. And he took the garment. Now... And struck the Jordan and said, "Let the God of Elijah speak."

L-30 Now, notice. The Church tonight, supposingly, you're supposed to keep our eyes on Christ. Hundred and twenty did when He was taken up. And they went into the upper room. And you say, "Was that the same Spirit was on Christ?"
A woman asked one day, said, "Let my sons set the one on right-hand and the left in Your Kingdom."
He said, "Can you drink the cup that I drink? The persecutions, so forth?"
"Yes."
"Can you be baptized with the baptism that I'm baptized with?" She said she could. He admitted that she could. And that baptism was the Holy Ghost. And then, He said, "Yes, but the right and left hand is not mine to give, but the Father's." But notice. [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]
