<TITLE>11. Par 24-27</TITLE>L-24 I can notice Moses before the great separation time. Before death come to strike the land, God made a way of escape for those who believed: said, "Go out and get a male lamb. Keep it up fourteen days." Perfect type of Christ. First one from the old mother ewe, must be a male kept up fourteen days to be proved. It couldn't have a blemish.
Christ, the same thing, first One from the mother, virgin, and was tried... Even Pontius Pilate said, "I find no fault in Him." No one could find it.
Judas Iscariot said, "I've betrayed innocent Blood."
That pagan wife back there of Pilate, had a dream and sent the--the boy down from the palace. I can see Pilate standing there just ready to pronounce judgment upon Jesus. I hear a horse come running, galloping up there. A boy jumps off and runs up, falls down by the side of the--his master; raised up and give him a piece of paper. He looks at it. I can see his face turn white, knees go to flopping together. Let's look over his shoulder and see what it says.

L-25 It coming from a heathen now. Said, "Have nothing to do with this just Man. For I've suffered many things today in a dream because of Him."
I tell you. Every enemy had to testify of Him. The moon, stars shut off their glory to that day. That was the Son of God. The Roman centurion said, "Truly, that was the Son of God."
And he said, "I've betrayed innocent blood." Hallelujah. Yes, sir. He's God's provided way tonight.
Here's... Every man or woman that's ever had any--done anything for God, has been men and women who's believed that, held onto it, and kept it. It's thrilled the hearts of poets through the ages.
When I think of Eddie Perronet back there, what do you think of Christ, Eddie Perronet, when he wrote the--the great song of:
All hail the power of Jesus' Name!
Let angels prostrate fall;
Bring forth the royal diadem,
And crown Him Lord of all.

L-26 And I think of Hopkins, after being persecuted and everything, the way he did. He said.
When I survey the wondrous cross
Whereon the Prince of glory died,
I count all my pain to be but loss...
Oh, my! I'll ask another one. What do you think of Christ? Who do think He was?
I think of--of blind Fanny Crosby. What do you think of Him? You was blind, never saw day light in your life. What does Christ mean to you? If she could stand tonight, here's what she'd say.
Pass me not, O gentle Saviour,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.
Thou the Stream of all of my comfort,
More than life to me,
Whom have I on earth beside Thee?
Whom in Heaven but Thee.
That's right.

L-27 Another one wrote:
Living, He loved me; dying, He saved me;
Buried, He carried my sin far away;
Rising, He justified freely forever:
Someday He's coming--oh glorious day!
