<TITLE>12. Par 47-50</TITLE>L-47 But you know what? We set sometime, "Well, that was very nice. Yes, Lord. We appreciate that, Father." go home, as if it was just one of the regular routines of the day. Why? Brother, sister, if it was in Africa, and the Holy Spirit would move out through that audience there, and call somebody, and tell them what was wrong with them, out there, some sin in their life, or something they done, brother, you'd hear screams for four hours; you couldn't quieten them. Everything would fall to their knees and give their hearts to Christ, right there. What's... No--no, not hard to call people to God there, just--just let them see something in the supernatural; that's all they want to know. They've read it in the Bible, and when they see it, then they believe it. But, today, we explain it all away, you know, it's something else. That's the reason we're not getting anywhere. That's the reason we haven't got any revival in America.
I heard Billy Graham make that statement a few days ago. Said, "I went all around over the country, everywhere, but we didn't have no revival."

L-48 I thought, "Yes, Billy, that's right." Next time I get to talk to him, I'm going to tell him why. That's right. If he'd have done what George Jefferies told him over there in London, England, "Teach the baptism of the Holy Ghost, and stay put." He'd stay there. That's right.
When he stood by Lewi Pethrus, and sit right by my side, he said, "I'm going down to England and receive the baptism of the Holy Ghost myself." All right. If he'd get that started, 'fore those people freeze him to death out there. I feel sorry for him. That big bunch of ministers try to keep him squeezed down; I believe the boy would really get out, but he's tied down. He knows what's the truth. So far, God... Pray for them boys. Pray for all.
There's one of the boys, Hyman Appleman; I want you to be sure to pray for him, I'm to meet him in a few days. God gave me a vision about him. All right, already.

L-49 All right, lady. Now, won't you come here, just a minute, my sister? Now, when you people come, I don't want you to come like you're coming to touch a totem pole or something. That won't work. No. There's nothing here. I'm just your brother. No more in the sight of God than any thing, or that microph... Well, I'm more than a microphone, of course, 'cause we're human beings, son and daughter of God. But when you come, I want you to believe that you're coming into His Presence. And I want you to come with a reverent true heart, believing with all your heart, that God is going to do something for you. Then ask God and you'll receive what you've asked for. Come reverent. Come like Martha did, when she fell before Jesus. She said, "Lord, if You'd have been here, my brother would not died, but even whatever you ask God, God will do it."
There you are. There's what you are.

L-50 Now, lady, you being the first patient tonight, perhaps, let's take a drama, you and I, and talk a few minutes. If I... If we were living back in Bible times, and now, you've walked down the street, and you'd seen Jesus of Nazareth, He was wearing this suit of clothes, this shirt and tie, you'd walk up to Him, and you'd say, "Lord, have mercy on me."
Now, I don't know what's wrong with you, there might not be nothing wrong. If there isn't, be assured, He will tell you about it. See? If you're just here to deceive, you'll find out what takes place in a few minutes. All right.
