<TITLE>07. Par 19-20</TITLE>L-19 Now, as I open this blessed old Word; it just means so much to me. I wish to read a quotations of different ones of our Lord. I wish first to read our Lord speaking of His, and a vindication, God speaking of His Son, found in Saint John the 4th chapter, beginning with the 14th verse. Jesus in His conversation at the well:
But whosoever drinketh of the waters that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him... well of water springing up into eternal life--or everlasting life... (Pardon me.)
The woman said unto Him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.
Jesus said unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.
The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said unto her, Thou hast said well, I have no husband:
For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now has is not thy husband: in... thou saidst truly.
The woman said unto Him, Sir, I perceive that Thou art a prophet.
And over in the book of Saint John the 1st chapter, beginning with the 42nd verse, we read this:
The day following Jesus would go forth into Galilee, and findeth Philip, and saith unto him, Follow me.
Philip was of Bethsaida, city of Andrew and Peter.
Philip findeth Nathanael, and said unto him, We have found him... whom Moses and the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.
Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see.
Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and said unto him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!
Nathanael said unto him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before Philip called thee, when thou was under the fig tree, I saw thee.
Nathanael answered and--and said unto him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God... the King of Israel.
And in the 5th chapter and the 36th verse, God speaking of His Son first, vindicating His claims. The next was John speaking of Him. Now, the Son speaks for Himself, 36th verse of the 5th chapter:
But I have greater witness than that of John: for the works which the Father has given me to finish, the same works that I do, bear witness of me, that the Father hath sent me.

L-20 That's three witnesses, John speaking, God speaking for Him, and He speaking for Himself, three witnesses that He was sent of God to fulfill the works of God. And now, He is the same today. And it's written that in this day, the things that we now see and hear, were to be here. And it's all to fulfill what the Lord has said. All Scriptures is given by inspiration. And it's the fulfillment must come quickly as the time draws near.
Who would've thought, a few years ago, your great grandfather, when he met his neighbor, and he said, "You know, it's written in the Bible that there's going to be a time when the horseless carriages will jostle through the broadway; they'll rage; they'll run like lightning."
Why, maybe his critical neighbor said, "Well, John has just a little bit off at his mind. He's read too much in the Bible."
But his grandchildren are riding in one of those things tonight. See, when God speaks, it's forever--it's forever settled in heaven. Then that's got to come to pass. And now, Jesus came, and His healing was to fulfill the ministry of Elijah and all the prophets from the foundation of the world. He was the fulfillment of that. The law and prophets were until John, since then the Kingdom of heaven.
