<TITLE>09. Par 31-34</TITLE>L-31 Said, "He walked through the crowd. He perceived their thoughts. He knowed what they was thinking about. He knowed what was wrong with them. He knowed the woman at the well, and He talked to her a little bit, where her trouble was. He knowed Nathanael's trouble. And--and He knowed where a fish had had a coin in its mouth. Just as God would show Him He would do." I said, "He didn't claim to be a healer."
"In the resurrection of Him, He's the same yesterday, today, or forever." And I said, "Now, if I testify of the truth, God will testify of me. If I do not testify of the truth, God will never have nothing to do with a lie. God will always testify truth though."
And I said, "I'm not out here just to be seen. I'm out here, not by choice, by a long ways; I wanted to be a... Well, I was a game warden in the state of Indiana, and I loved my job. I was borned for the wilderness and wilds. I certainly... It wasn't my choice to preach the Gospel; but woe unto me if I preach it not. It was God's choice. I run from it and tried to get away from it and everything." I said, "It was Him Who brought it." And now, I said, "If I tell the truth, God will testify the truth."

L-32 And I no more than said it, Something went, "Whew!" Here He come, sailing right down where I was. And this photographer run out and took a picture, when he seen me turn white in the face. And he took a picture. I said, "God has spoken."
And that's all Catholic people and all setting there saw It, looked at It. And many of them begin to scream and fainting. Come right down, a Pillar of Fire, moved right down to where I was at. He shot the picture.
And the man... One of the men of the studio was a Jew. His name was Ted Kipperman. The other one's name was Mr. Ayers. He's a Roman Catholic. And oh, he just wrote a awful thing in the paper about me the other day--the day before that. He said I was a hypnotizer and I don't know what all.
And so on the road home that night, taken the--the negatives, going in to have them developed for Mr. Best. He said, "I might've been wrong." Said, "What do you think about that, Ted?"
Ted said, "Well, I'm Jew. I don't know nothing about it."

L-33 He said, "Well," he said, "I'm Catholic," and said, "we're taught that those things can happen, but it can only happen in a Catholic church."
Now, you're wrong there. See? It can happen wherever God wants it to happen, whether it's in Catholic church or--or anywhere He wants it to happen. He's God. He does the choice. He keeps the book.
And so he went in, and he put the--the pictures in the dark room to go through the acids to be developed, and the next... After a bit, why, Mr. Kipperman, he said, "I'm going up and lie--lie down a little while." And so he went upstairs to lie down.
And while he was up there, Mr. Ayers smoked a cigarette or two, and went in the dark room and said, "I'll see. We had to get the picture ready 'cause Mr.--Mr. Best--Dr. Best, the minister, wanted his pictures the next day so he could show it to the people," he was shaking his fist under his nose.

L-34 So then when he... The next when Mr. Ayers went in, which is an arch enemy of mine and Brother Bosworth too. He didn't believe it. He wrote a piece in the paper and said I wasn't nothing but a hypnotizer. A goiter had left a woman's throat. He said, "He hypnotized that off of her throat." Oh, my. That shows mental weakness.
So then when he pulled the first picture out of Mr. Best with Mr. Bosworth, it was negative. God wouldn't permit that taken against that saintly old man. He pulled out the next one: negative. He pulled out all six of them, and every one of them was blank. And when he pulled out the other one, there was the Angel of God on the picture. He had a heart attack.
They sent for me at the Rice Hotel. Of course, there's two men standing at the door in big meetings where they have thousands and thousands of people. There's someone stands at the door. They wouldn't let them in. All right.
