<TITLE>16. Par 50-53</TITLE>L-50 Here's Sarah. Now, we know that God would have to make her womb fertile, we know that. Now, you're a mixed audience. You listen to a doctor; I'm your brother. Look. He'd have to make her womb fertile, because she was forty-five or fifty years a pass menopause. Think of it. When she was a young girl, and healthy and everything, then she didn't have babies. But here now, she's nearly fifty years a pass menopause, and now she's going to have a baby.
Now, He'd have to make her womb fertile. And besides that, if He was going to... She was going to go... And they didn't have caesareans in those days, you know. So it'd have... In order to give birth to that baby, to go in labor, she was going to have to have a new heart put in her, 'cause an old woman that old couldn't stand labor pain, you know that. All right. Then she's going to have to go in labor, so she has to have another heart. And in order to do that... The milk veins was dried up, so they just to have new milk veins put in.
Now, God don't patch up anything like that. What God did to Sarah, He turned her back to a young woman. Now, that kindly struck you a little bit, but just hold on. Now, don't--don't jump up and run. See? Let's--let's hold on just a minute.

L-51 He turned Abraham and Sarah, both, back to about twenty-five years old, like He's going to do everybody one of these days that's His children. He showed in them what He was going to do to him and his seed after him.
Notice. Sarah and Abraham immediately took a trip and went plumb to Gerar on camels. Follow it... Separate them out and see how far it is; about three hundred miles. Quite a trip for an old couple like that, don't you think? A hundred years old, little grandma in her shawl, running along like this, and Abraham, and his beard hanging way down.

L-52 My, went on down with a three hundred mile trip... And above everything, there was a young king down there named Abimelech, and he was looking for a sweetheart. And all of those pretty girls around there, and he fell in love with this old grandma, wanted to marry her. Nonsense, brethren. Abraham said, "Sarah, you're fair." She was the prettiest woman there was, in the land.
And that man, with all them young women like that, wouldn't have wanted that old great-grandma with a little stick in her hand and a little shawl over her shoulder, little dust cap on, you know; and he wouldn't wanted to take her for a wife. But God had turned her back into a beautiful young woman again, like He's going to do all the seed of Abraham someday. But what does old age or that going mean anyhow. Hallelujah. Doesn't mean a thing to the believer. Hallelujah. We'll laugh in the face of death some glorious day.

L-53 My wife looked at me the other day; I was combing what hair I had. She said, "Honey, you're almost bald-headed."
I said, "Yes, but I haven't lost a one of them."
She said, "You haven't."
I said, "No."
She said, "Well, where are they at?"
I said, "Where was they before I got them? If you'll tell me where they was before I got them, they are there waiting for me in the resurrection." Hallelujah. Amen.
Every item, every thing that once...?... are waiting. I've got the blessed old promise here in the...?... on Calvary's cross, and the Holy Ghost confirming every Word...?... some glorious day when He shall come. Let's...?... people, if it won't do--it don't make any difference to me. Amen. I know in Whom I have believed, and I'm persuaded He's able to keep that I've committed to Him  against the day. Amen.
