<TITLE>05. Par 18-20</TITLE>L-18 And if you notice, the very teaching of nature... Watch nature if you want to see God. God in His great nature. You watch, just before the sun come up of the morning... Isaiah, I believe it was the prophet one time; he said, "Watchmen, what of the night?" He said, "The--the night cometh, and the morning cometh, and the night also."
If you notice he was just Scripturally in order. Watch. The first thing come, before the night come... Always before the--the daylight it's the darkest. It's always darkest just before the break of day. It's because the light is a pressing, and condensing the darkness. And that is at that time that the morning star comes out.
It's only the early risers that ever sees the morning star. And I think in this great hour of darkness just before the break of day, the Morning Star has shined again, spreading forth itself. The early risers who are rising, not setting back, "I'll get saved next year. I'll get saved next week."
Them who rises and comes out sees the morning star, rising out of your stoop and sleep of this modern world, theology, and moving into the powers of the Holy Ghost, the unchangeable riches of God spread forth in our heart, showing signs and wonders. Why, sure we rise and give Him glory. The great morning star, I think of that. And then when He comes, then we shall see Him as He is, have a body like His, be free from sickness, and all guilt, and be with Him forever.

L-19 Now, we one time was thinking about something on the order, the morning star reflecting the light. I used to like to go to a certain stream, a little--up in the mountains, where you go sometimes to fish and to hunt.
I remember being up there, here not long ago, when I was fishing one morning, had my little old tent set up, was catching trout. How I love to do that. And I was fishing one morning, and I--I come along and come back to my tent, and my tent was tore down.
There was a big bunch of little old black bears in that country. And an old mother bear, and her little cubs, had got into that tent, and they had tore it to pieces. It wasn't what they eat; it was what they tore up. And so I--I noticed when I come up... I just had a little chopping axe in my hand; I'd been cutting some bushes so I could get down and throw my... to fish.
And I noticed the old mother bear; she run off a little piece, and cooed. One of the cubs jumped up and run with her. The other little fellow, I wondered what in the world he was doing. He was just sitting there with his little head down like that. Now, I thought, "Well, he's a pretty game little fellow."

L-20 Well, I heard the old mother bear cooing to the other one. I thought, "Well, I don't want to get too close, because she can climb a tree as good as I can. So I don't want to get too close on her." And... She was out there, and she'd raise up and coo a little bit.
I had an old beat up rifle laying in there, but I guess it was stomped to pieces by that time. So I thought, "She could outrun me." And I--I didn't want to get scratched by her. So I--I kept watching the little cub, and I was noticing he was doing something. And I--I wondered what that little fellow was doing. And when I got over there, to find out around like this, moved around closely, and watching the old mother, and to notice what the little bear was doing...
