<TITLE>11. Par 47-51</TITLE>L-47 Now, He said, "After I go away, the Father will come in the form of the Holy Spirit and will be with you, in you until the end of the world. And the very things that I do shall you do also." That's Scripture, isn't it?
Now, I want to ask something. Then if He's come tonight in this form that I say that He has come in... I want to ask you a question. Did Jesus' death... Now, I want you to go to bed tonight on this. Think of it.
When He was here on earth in a body of flesh, He had power to heal the sick. He had power to see vision, and to do as the Father gave Him to do. Well, in His vicarious suffering, and death, and burial, and resurrection, did He lose the power that He had? Did His obedience to God through His suffering, death, and burial, and resurrection, did He lose the power that God gave Him? Did He gain power? Yes.

L-48 In Saint Matthew 19:18, it said this... I mean Saint Matthew 28:18 it is. He said, "All (after His resurrection)--all powers in heavens and earth is given into My hand." Then He did not lose His powers; He gained more power. Is that right? Then if He has gained more power, then He can do more things. Is that right?
Now, He's living in the Church today. Do you believe that? He's the same yesterday, today, and forever, promising the same works that He did would we do, even more. You believe it to be the truth? Then what basis do we have tonight for our faith?
The first thing, friend, there's some of you here may not believe in Divine healing, may not believe in the power of God. First, you were born here to control all circumstances. Sin...

L-49 I want to ask you ministers something. How can you deal with sin without dealing with sickness? You cannot deal with sin on any major, without dealing with sickness, for sickness is a attribute of sin. You can't touch sickness, or sin more without dealing with sickness and all of it's attributes. For sin is the main... It's the head of the serpent. Kill the head, you've actually killed the body. And you can't kill it at the head without killing the body.
So if He just come to heal us and not to save us, we could have something to say about salvation. But He come to deal with salvation for the soul, which is the head. And when you kill the head, you've got to kill the rest of the body. So you can't deal with...

L-50 Jesus couldn't come to redeem us from just sin without redeeming us from sickness or all the things that goes with it, even to death. He redeemed us from death. And we do not die. There's not a Scripture in the Bible that says a Christian dies. We have Everlasting Life and cannot die. God promised to resurrect the body in the last days. We rest in this assurance.
Now, we have salvation, happiness and joy, which is the earnest of our salvation, of our complete redemption someday. And we have Divine healing as the earnest of our immortal bodies which is coming on.
When we receive the--the attributes of His death into this old, physical, sin-cursed body. It brings it back, snaps it back again to life again to prove to us that there's a land beyond the river, where someday we're going where there is no sickness, nor sorrows, nor death in the complete Eden again. May the Lord bless you, my friend.

L-51 Now, my contention is to you Chicago people and around about, that Jesus raised from the dead, and the things that He did then, He does yet.
Now, I'm not telling you to come join up with my belief, for I do not belong to any church. I don't belong to any denominational church. I have nothing against any denominational church.
But I'm only asking you this. As a denominational Christian with only a profession of faith, you'll never see the mystery. You--you stay in your church, but be borned again of the Spirit of God, so the valves in your innermost being, in your mind, and soul can open up to the full statue of what God wants you to be, as a Christian in that denomination, and you'll do good. Your pastor will appreciate you if he's a spiritual man.
