<TITLE>08. Par 33-37</TITLE>L-33 But now, rubbing those skulls thinking that maybe there would be a blessing, what is it? Hungry-hearted people somewhere thinking maybe that someone that once occupied this body has moved on and could give them a blessing by rubbing their skull. That's only human. That's only something in the heart calling out, longing, reaching out, hungering and thirsting to find something.
Now, there's got to be something right, and there's got... If there are hungers in the human heart for such as that, and we see the basics beginning of it, and see how it's led down till there's got to be something that's truth and something that's false. There's just got to be, friend. I say that reverently with all my heart and I say it as your brother.

L-34 And I am not belittling anyone's belief or--or any religion that you have. In here tonight, probably, is many religions represented, many religious people of different sects of denominations and so forth. And I respect every one of them.
But now, let's just look right down after this little basic thought here, before we pray for the sick. Let's look down and see.
Jesus said in this last text now that we're going to the first, "If ye abide in Me and My Word in you..." Jesus said, "He that heareth My words, and believeth on Him that sent Me has Everlasting Life." We have Everlasting Life. We've accepted that by faith. We believe it.

L-35 Now, Jesus said, "He that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he do, also even more than this." The right translation is "more." The--the King James here says "greater," which "greater" which means not--not in quality, it couldn't be greater, but in quantity, 'cause He could be all over the world. He could be doing the works here, and in Italy, and in Paris, and everywhere else doing the work.
"More than this shall you do for I go unto My Father. A little while, the world seeth Me no more; yet you will see Me for I will be with you, even in you to the end of the world."

L-36 Now, we believe as Christians that Jesus Christ that died... Do you believe that when Jesus was here, when He walked on the earth here, that He healed the sick? How many believes that with all your heart? He raised the dead. He cast out evil spirits.
And He did nothing except the Father showed Him, He said. Is that right? Saint John 5:19, He said, "Verily, verily I say unto you..."
Now, He wasn't a person that went around just said, "Bring this one here; let Me show I can heal him." No, no, no. He went around, and where the Father showed Him what to do, He went and done it.

L-37 When He was here on earth, we... I say this maybe out of repetition. I don't mean it to be that way, but I've said it before. But let's look at His life just a few moments and see what type of Person He was. Then you can have an idea on what He should be today.
Now, when He was here on earth, He was a perfect example of everything of the Godhead. He was the fullness of the Godhead bodily. In Christ was God. The body of Jesus was only the tabernacle of God. It's where Almighty God Himself lived and dwelt in a human being. You believe that, don't you? You have to to be saved. You have to believe that.
