<TITLE>10. Par 28-31</TITLE>L-28 I call Isaiah; he was one of the major prophets. Let's see what he'd say about Him. Isaiah, what think ye of Christ? Whose Son is He?
Isaiah was a major prophet; he wrote a Bible in itself. There's sixty-six books in the--in Isaiah, sixty-six chapters in Isaiah, sixty-six books in the Bible. He starts off with creation like Genesis, right in the middle of the book, where the New Testament came, John the Baptist comes up, and then in the end, he ends it in the millennium: build houses and inhabit them, plant vineyards and eat thereof. He wrote a whole Bible. He was one of the prophets that God thought he was prophet enough to raise him up and let him see from end to the beginning, then the beginning to the end, back and forth, and Isaiah wrote it.
What think ye of Christ, Isaiah? He would say, "Why unto us a Son is born, unto us a Child is given. The government shall be upon His shoulders; His Name shall be called Counselor, Prince of Peace, the Mighty God, the Everlasting Father; and of His kingdom there shall be no end." That's what he'd say. That's right. He wouldn't be like some of these theologians today, who's class Him down just as a mere man or a teacher or a philosopher. He'd...

L-29 I'd say, "Call Daniel." Daniel, that great prophet, who saw the beginning of the end--or the time he saw it down through to the end through a image. Surely, He saw Jesus in there somewhere. If he saw the beginning with the head of gold: King Nebuchadnezzer and the Gentile kingdom. He saw the Medes and Persians and the brass and so forth, out into the Roman Empire, unto His coming. "What think ye of Christ?" Now, Daniel--you great and--prophet of God, mighty in power, "What think ye of Christ?"
He'd say, "I seen all the world's image. I saw it standing there. Then I beheld a Stone cut out of the mountain without hands, that rolled into Babylon, crushed it and become like a grass in the floor with the chaff on it and the wind come and blowed away. And it came into a great mountain that covered all of the earth, the sea, and the sky." That's what he thought of Him: the Stone that was hewed out of the mountain without hands. Daniel, the great prophet...

L-30 Now, let's ask another one who ought to be. Really, let's ask John the Baptist. What do you think of Him, John the Baptist? If John could come down on the scene today and stand here on this platform and testify, John would say, "I knew Him not. But He that told me in the wilderness, 'Go baptize with water,' said 'Upon Whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending and remaining on, He's the One that'll baptize with the Holy Ghost and fire.'" He would testify for Him unto the witness of Who He was.

L-31 I think the best authority that there is, that we know of, would be his mother. Don't you think so? If any woman ought to know who the Baby belongs to, the mother ought to. Is that right? Mary, let's call you down this afternoon and ask you. What do you think about Christ? Whose Son is He? You're the mother; you ought to know. You ought to know all about it.
I can hear the little virgin say, "I knew not a man." Hallelujah. "But one day when I was walking from the--up from the virgin well with the bucket of the water on my shoulders, an Angel appeared before me and said, 'Fear not Mary. Hail. Blessed art thou among woman.' Said, 'the Holy Ghost would overshadow me and that Holy Thing that would be born in me, would be called the Son of God.' I believe that's what He was, the Son of God, the virgin born Son of the living God." I think that that ought to be an authority, don't you think so? What do you think Mary? Whose Son is He? She said, "It's the Son of God."
