<TITLE>04. Par 12-15</TITLE>L-12 [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]... paid the price. He's the only one that can heal. He did it at Calvary. And for me to do something that He did at Calvary would be robbing Him of His Calvary sacrifice. So I can't do it, Christian friends. And to be honest with you, I don't believe there's anyone else that can do it. I believe the only thing that any man can do to you, is get your faith pointed towards Calvary. He might preach you the Gospel so plain, that--and--or talk to you in such a way that you would see: "There it is. He knows what he's speaking about. He speaks with earnestness. He proves it by the Scriptures that that is the sacrifice. That's the thing." And you look there and get well.
I believe anything else outside of leading you to Calvary would be wrong (See?), anything outside of Calvary, like it would be in--in the person.

L-13 But I said that the Lord said, that these things that would take place would--would come from Him, that He sent me to--not to heal people. But watch. He said, "You were given a gift."
Now, when you call, talk about "the gift," there is no such a thing. That's unscriptural. "The gift..." I Corinthians 12, said, "gifts," plural. So there's no "the gift." It's "a gift." See? And it might be one work one way, another through teaching the Word, through something else, or--or however it is--knowledge, and all these things. It works in with the--with healing. It's faith in healing. That's what it is.
And now, you don't have to wait to be a minister to do that. You don't have wait to be a--a deacon. You don't... Only thing you have to do is have faith in God. And the Bible said, "Pray one for another. If there's any among you sick, don't even bother the pastor, call the elders of the church, let them pray for you." Is that right? I just read it. And that's the rule.
And then It said, "Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another that you may be healed; for the effectual fervent prayer of (a deacon? No. of an elder? No.)--of a righteous man (a good man.)..." If the man's sincere and believes, "an effectual fervent prayer of that righteous man availeth much." See?

L-14 Now, that in other words, here you're standing here; this man is praying for you, trying to help you. And you're believing with all your heart. And both of you together as two witnesses are coming before God. Something's bound to move. Now, something's got to happen now, in healing.
Now, this--this gift of seeing, that's just as same to me as it would be for you to set down at the table and eat when you're hungry. See? It's just there. I never put it there; it never come there. And if I testify of that, and it's wrong, God doesn't testify of it, then you say He's wrong.
But brother, not in the meeting. But the things that's predicted will be, come to pass time after time, place after place, and everywhere, in different positions and times, and so forth. And every time hit's perfect. Why? It's God speaking, not me. I didn't know what was going to happen. But He knows all the future. Don't you believe that? And He can drop it to us as He will. Now, those things are true.

L-15 But the Angel said to me, "If you'll get the people to believe..." Now, listen closely to all... We're going to pray for a group of people, I believe, tonight. "If you get the people to believe you." To believe what? To believe that God sent me to pray for you (See?), that God's got--sent me to... Not for my own merit, what He did before I was borned, He gave that. And I'm to pray for you.
"If you get the people to believe you, and then be sincere when you pray..." There's the thing. Well now, instead of that, when it begin to come up, I begin to... Everything I done, I just set still. I watched over the audience. And where the heavenly Father would show me something, I'd speak that. And I'd speak this. And the first thing you know, it's just a very few gets to the line. And I'm just so weak, that they just take me out.
