<TITLE>04. Par 14-16</TITLE>L-14 In the 22nd chapter of Saint Matthew beginning with the 41st verse, I wish to read down the 46th verse inclusive. Now I'm... As everyone knows that I'm not a preacher, as I would call a preacher. I'm, as I said a--the spare tire. And you only use the spare tire when you got a flat. But we haven't got a flat this morning, but it just happened to be time to speak just a few moments. And you pray with me as I talk to you about this text.
And while the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus  asked them,
Saying, What think ye of Christ? whose son is he? And they  said unto him, The son of David.
And He said, unto them, How then does David in spirit call  him Lord, saying,
The Lord said unto my Lord, Set thou on my right hand,  till I make thine enemies thy footstool?
If David then called him Lord, how is he his son?
And no man was able to answer him a word, neither durst  any man from that day forth ask him any more questions.
May He add His blessings to that Word. And now, for a few moments I'd like to take this if you'd call it a text of "What Think Ye Of Christ?" After you've seen all these meetings and everything, what do you think of Christ, Whose Son is He?

L-15 That's been an--an old dispute through the ages, through the scientist, and through the--the evolutionists and so forth: What was Christ, Who was He? And--and it's just as simple as... The question is, which was first, the hen or the egg? You've heard that, which, the hen come from the egg and which was first the hen or egg?
Why the hen was. God made the hen, and the hen laid the egg. That's just a simple as anything but they always ask it, "The hen come out of the egg, so how did--which was first, hen or egg?" So God made the hen; the hen laid the egg. The hen was first.
And now, that's the same thing about scien--scientific research of the blood stream of Jesus Christ. We all know that--that Christ was the virgin borned Son of God. And many unbelievers today try to deny that the woman could have the baby without first having a--a sexual desire from... being borned of sex by the--the male.

L-16 Well, they said that a hen could not lay an egg without... If it couldn't be fertile, of course, if the male bird... She can lay an egg, but she--the egg won't hatch unless it's been with the male. See? And a scientist once told me... Not speaking scientist because my brother's here, but there was a scientist once went hunting with me out in the west. And I met him, and he was about the roughest fellow I ever seen.
He said, "Do you mean to tell me," when I told him I was a preacher he said, "You look too intelligent to be that."
And I said, "Well," I said, "well, not disputing your words, sir, but I believe that's the mark of intelligence."
And he said--he said, "Well, anybody would believe such a story as that..."
And I said, "Well, what do you mean?"
And he said, "Why such as that virgin birth." He said, "You--you know you know better than that."
I said, "No, sir, I'll admit I don't know any better." I said, "That's--that's just all I know. See?"
