<TITLE>17. Par 55-58</TITLE>L-55 Now, in that lay great multitudes. A multitude, takes two thousand to make a multitude, I'm told. And there's multitudes. Well, now, you remember the old critics just like they'd be here or somewhere else. "Why didn't You heal that one? Let Him heal this one, and I'll--I'll believe it." Why, when He come to His own town, many mighty works He could not do. Is that right? Could not do, the Bible said, because of what? [Congregation says, "Unbelief."--Ed.] Their unbelief. That's right. So but He knew what they were doing, and what was wrong with them. Is that right?
Now, when Philip come, brought Nathanael, He said He knew where he was at before he come.

L-56 The woman at the well, He talked to her a little bit, and caught her spirit. Then He said; He told her where her trouble was, said, "Go, get your husband." That was where her trouble was.
She said, "I have no husband."
Said, "That's right. You got five."
"Why," she said, "I perceive that You're a prophet." And she run into the city and said, "Come, see a Man Who told--told me everything I did." She was just excited. He never told her all she did. He told her one thing she was doing. But if God could reveal that to Him, He could reveal everything. Is that right?
Now, listen right close, now, while you got that now, 'cause I'm waiting on something, and you know that. Now, while He was standing there, watch.
These Jews found this man packing his bed, Saint John 19, and they questioned him. And when they got Jesus, they questioned Jesus. Now, listen at what He said.

L-57 "Verily, verily, I say unto you, that the Son can do nothing in Himself." Is that right? "But what He sees the Father doing, that doeth the Son, likewise." Is that right? Then according to Christ's own Word, and I believe He told the truth. I'd lay my life anywhere that He told the truth. He did not do one thing, until first, God, which was within Him revealed and showed Him by a vision what to do.
Look at the resurrection of Lazarus. He went away from the house three days. Just kept on going. They called for Him; He just kept on going. Then He turned and said, "Lazarus dead. And for your sake, I'm glad I wasn't there. But I go wake him." See, the Father had done showed Him just exactly. Lazarus's going to die, all about it, and taking three days for it to happen. And when He went back into the...
Look when He went to the tomb. He said, "I thank Thee that Thou has already heard Me, but I said it for these who stood by." See? Then He said, "Lazarus, come forth." And a man that'd been dead four days stood on his feet and lived again. Amen. That same Jesus is here tonight. That's right.

L-58 Now, He said, "A little while, and the world (the unbelievers) won't see Me no more." Now, there's some people would set right at this meeting, say, "Oh, that's mind reading. That's mental telepathy, that's..." They could've said... They said the same thing about Him. Is that right? They called Him, "Beelzebub." Do you know who Beelzebub was? The chief of the devils, the greatest fortuneteller and devil there was. Said, "He's the--the Beelzebub."
And He said, "If they call the Master of the house Beelzebub, how much more they going to call them of His disciples?" So it's just a true sign of apostleship (Is that right?), discipleship of Jesus Christ. So may He, the One we're speaking of...
Think of it, friend. Standing now in this school auditorium, after nineteen hundred years... Jesus Christ, if He raised from the dead, He said, "The world won't see Me, but you'll see Me, for I'll be with you, even in you to the end of the world. And the things that I do shall you do also." Amen.
