<TITLE>02. Par 5-9</TITLE>L-5 I am very thankful that this Spirit of Truth was to be with us to the end. And that Spirit of Truth is none other, but the Lord Jesus, Himself, in spiritual form. For He said, "A little while, and the world seeth Me no more. Yet you shall see Me, for I'll be with you, even in you, to the end of the world." And that means tonight. And wherever we are, we have the comforting Words of knowing that Jesus will be with us.
To many of you people here, who go to little churches, no matter how small the church is, Jesus said, "If even two or three, were gathered together in His Name, He'd be with them." What a comforting Words it is to know no--no matter how small our little congregation is, yet the Lord Jesus is with us, and we're happy for that.

L-6 And now, I, as a speaker, I'm not much of a speaker. Brother Joseph does the speaking here, and I think Brother Moore will be here tomorrow sometime, Brother Jack Moore. Reverend Moore from Shreveport, Louisiana, will be with us. And tomorrow afternoon, the Lord willing, I want to give a---a lecture or talk here at (two o'clock is it, Brother Joseph?) two-thirty, tomorrow afternoon, on the--what causes sickness and the remedy for it. That's the instruction meeting. There's where we try to give out prayer cards to those who come to hear those instruction services. And at night time, we carry a few over, so we can have a little time to--to minister to the prayer cards, the ones who comes in as emergencies. During the time of the services, we can't minister in this manner to everyone at one time. We give prayer cards.

L-7 Now, there'll be calls, and every day we give out fresh and new prayer cards, which gives everybody an opportunity to come be prayed for. And we do that and have been running the services that way.
After returning from overseas, the Lord willing, I am going to try to figure out some way to keep from having to give prayer cards out, to keep the people lined up, if the Lord willing. And so I said it would be a change of my meetings after I come back from overseas. And now, I pray that His blessings rest upon all of you.

L-8 And now, I wish to open His Word, just a few moments, and read a portion out of this Word. After all, His Word is the eternal One. My words is like other men's words; they fail, but these Words are God's.
Now, over in the 12th chapter of Saint John, and the 20th, 21st, and 22nd verses, we read these words:
And there were certain Greeks among them that came up to worship at the feast:
The same came before Philip, which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see Jesus.
Philip cometh and telleth Andrew: and again Andrew telleth Jesus.

L-9 May He add His blessings to the reading of the Word. Tonight, I would like to use this as a subject, being it's the first night of the service. Now, tomorrow night, if God willing, I wish to take just some teachings of some parts of the Scripture and teach on it a few moments. I'd like to give you, being it's the beginning of the service, an outline of what--what the services are, and how we try to conduct them, the best of our knowledge, for the glory of our Lord Jesus. And that is, the--my main theme, and always has been my campaign theme, is found in Hebrews 13:8: "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today, and forever."
I believe with all my heart, that Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever. I believe what He was yesterday, He is today, and will be forever. And I believe that's the teaching of the Word.
