<TITLE>03. Par 23-33</TITLE>L-23 Now, and Divine healing is the same thing. "He was wounded for our transgressions, bruised for our iniquity, chastisement of our peace upon Him, with His stripes we were healed," all in the same day, by the same Man. Inseparable, run parallel, one to the other, the Blood coming from His back and the ones coming from His wound, mixed together and run off of His feet... See, that's it. Salvation, healing, peace, satisfaction, joy, everything that we have need of in the earthly journey, was met in Calvary. And God will minister to everyone who will accept it upon those basis and believe it with all their heart.

L-24 Now, "God set in the Church, some teachers, apostles, prophets, gifts of healing," and, oh, different kinds of gifts. He put that in the Church for the perfecting of the Church, getting the Church together.
And now, days has passed since the first round of the apostles. They had all the nine gifts working in the Church. The second round, they begin to cool off. The third round was about all gone. Then went out into the fifteen hundred years of dark ages. Then come the reformation.
After the reformation come sanctification, after justification come John Wesley, preaching sanctification. In there come Calvin, Knox, and all of those who came down into the Pentecostal, Nazarene, that age.

L-27 And now we're moving right on into another great age, coming for the rapture of the Church. And in this, we're living in the time of the restoration of the gifts. It stumbled many of the big fine churches; it sent Nazarene backwards; it made fanatics out of a lot of Pentecost. But just the same, God's moving right on, bringing in the rapturing faith for His Church. That's right. So tonight I represent that faith, the faith that was once delivered to the saints, in the way of a Divine gift.
Which, to my opinion, "Gifts and callings..." Not my opinion; but the Bible says that gifts and callings are without repentance. There's nothing you can do about it. You can't make yourself with blue eyes when you got brown. You're just what you are, by the grace of God.
You can't even come to God without God calling you first. You can't seek God without God seeking you first and calling you. "No man can come to me, except My Father draws him." So God is seeking. "God has set in the Church..."

L-30 And then from a little child, born here in this state of Kentucky, visions just comes to me just the same as--as eating or anything else. It's just as God will, He provides it. I just do as He tells me to do.
Certainly, I have many critics. I have many people who disbelieve it. No matter what would take place, they'd disbelieve it anyhow. I expect to have that. And if I didn't have that, I'd go down to an altar somewhere and say, "Dear Lord, what's wrong with me?" "For all that live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution." Right. We must have it. That's right.

L-33 So Jesus had it. He said, if... When He could stand in His audience, and know what (the people) was wrong, and how whether they was healed or not. And they touched Him, with the--their faith. When He turned and said, "Who touched Me?" He said, "Your faith has saved you. Now, your blood issue has stopped. Your faith has made you whole."
A woman come to Him one time. Or He was standing where she was at, at the pool, or the drinking place, the well, Jacob's well. And a woman come, and He carried a conversation with her for a few moments till He found her trouble; said, "Go, get your husband."
She said, "I have none."
Said, "That's right. You have five."
