<TITLE>09. Par 74-83</TITLE>L-74 They couldn't understand how that that holy Man could ever, being what we say, the Christian saith, would die. I said, "The reason He had to die was to take away our sins." I said, "He wasn't no third Person, or second Person; He was the same Person, made flesh in order to take away our sins." I said, "He--He had to come and make..."
And I give them the little story I preached on here, the night before I left, of the bee, you know, how it stings, then leaves its stinger, you know, and it can't sting no more. And it had to be human flesh, for the--for the bee of death to sting, because death is not in the soul. Death is in the spir... in the flesh. So it had... God had to become flesh, in order to take away the sting of death. And so then when... They got to see that, you know, 'cause there's a lot of insects in India, and they were--they were...

L-76 Uh, I said, "Now, look. God can, the very Creator... This man, in his superstition, looking at the sun, trying to find mercy for his soul, for he knows that he's got to go somewhere when he dies, from here..." I said, "Though there, his eyes has went out; and through ignorance he did this. But the very Creator Who made the sun that he looked at, can make sight back into his eyes."
I said, "Will you be willing, sir, to accept the Lord Jesus Christ as your Saviour, and will forsake all idols and everything else, and will serve Him as long as you live? If you will, raise your hands." And the poor old fellow raised up his trembling hand. Everything there just merely wears a piece of loin cloth around them, you know. And he raised his hands, that he would.

L-78 And they never set when there's church. Never... They never have no seats or nothing. They just lay down, or set down, or fall down, or pile on one another, anything they can. You can imagine what it would be like. Just as far as you can see, you know, the people's like that.

L-79 And so I prayed to the good Lord to give him his sight. And there, by God's grace, that total blind man, the tears begin to run down his old wrinkled face and beard, you know, whited beard, running down like that. And he begin to yell something in his own language. And everybody begin screaming. And here he went walking out through there, patting everybody like that. He could see, a man that had been blind.

L-80 Now, Brother Cox and them, I think, he's sitting in the back. He can show you letters of vindication of these things that's come in from India, and it would just take long, long, long.
But in the way that we had it, I--I couldn't stay. It's... I don't see how I ever got five nights in. If it hadn't been for my boy back there, Billy Paul, and the help of God, I don't know how I'd have ever made it. Billy stuck by me. And he--he taken me through, tried to get me through. And them people, you know, that's... They're just... They're very timid. They don't want to hurt nothing, or nothing. And you just have to go over (See?), 'cause you'd get mashed down under the crowd, and we--we wouldn't know, you know. It'd just tramp you to death. You see, just have to get through it.
So, well, I'm back home again, by God's grace. I could tell more, but it's Sunday school time. I don't want to take up the preaching of the Word in a missionary talk.

L-83 Any "care" package you have, and you want to take advice, send it to India. I'm not nothing against Germany; they're fine people, against these other people. But, brother, sister, we only send them stuff over to build them up, and then have another war with them. See? That's right. Let's send it somewhere where it really needs to be. See? If you got anything to send, send it to India. They're the ones in need. And poor, illiterate, they have natural resource, but haven't got the intelligence to know how to develop it. The only thing they know is beg; and that's what they do.
