<TITLE>20. Par 83-85</TITLE>L-83 "So the pastor come up. He read Mark 3:6--Mark 16 to her, and he said, 'If any among you is sick,' so forth like that and what to do, 'and these signs shall follow them believe. They lay hands on the sick and they shall recover.'"
And said, "You know he read that out of the Bible and, I said, 'Well, if it's in the Bible, it's truth.' So--so he prayed for me and laid hands on me. And honey, the next morning I was perfectly well."
"Oh," he said, "mother, you just don't know." Said, "Those fanatics never go to school." Said, "They don't know what it's all about. Well," said, "in the seminary we've learned better than that."
"Oh," she said, "you have?"
Said, "Yeah, we learned in the seminary, Mark 16, from the 9th verse on is uninspired. It's not even inspired."
And the little woman said, "Glory to God. Hallelujah."
He said, "Mother, why you're acting like one of them." Said, "The very audacity..."
And she said, "Why, hallelujah, son."
Said, "What's the matter, mother?"
Said, "I was thinking. If God could heal me with uninspired Word, what could He do with that's really inspired."

L-84 Amen. That's right. If He could do that with uninspired what about that that's really inspired. Brother, It's every bit inspired. I'll hang my soul on any of It. It's the truth. But the thing of it is, is our sluggishness won't meet God's requirement in faith.
Looky here. Then I want you to notice just before I close now. Here come these fundamentals. My, they were going to put a curse on this, show him the utmost parts. And so away went the prophet. He took up his parable to find the Spirit, and when he found the Spirit of God, God said, "Don't you say a thing but what I put in your mouth."
Said, "All right." And he went back to...?... and he said, "Now you show him how ugly the king was. How bad this--this bunch of fanatics down there that believed in Divine healing, that brass serpent there for healing." They looked at it when they got sick. Got well. Yep. They had blessings. They go to rock when they was thirsty and drink and just rejoice. They was just carrying on awful. That's right. Pillar of Fire hanging over them, God's blessings just a moving with them...
He said, "See how bad they are?" That's right.

L-85 But when the prophet come back, God begin to speak through the prophet. He said, "I've not conceived iniquity in the Jacob. I don't see him from the utmost parts, because I beheld him from the mountain top, and I've not found any iniquity in Jacob." Why? His a vindication was there. His power was there. There was a smitten Rock, a brass serpent, an atonement going before them with a sign of God over them, with signs and wonders. See?
The same thing from Cain and Abel. Now, not fundamental, fundamental, too, but signs a following the believer. "These sign shall follow them that believe."
Come right along with Jesus. Look at Him for a few minutes. Oh, I think of that. Now, when He come. He was fundamental in doctrine, although it didn't agree with the priests in those days. And remember those priests wasn't scallawags. They were gentlemen. They were holy and without blemish. Scholars? As good as we got today (Right.), and they failed to recognize Jesus Christ to be the Son of God. They failed to recognize Him, because what did He do? He tore up their churches. He tore down their creeds.
