<TITLE>06. Par 23-27</TITLE>L-23 I was glad to hear Billy Graham say that the other day, that Jesus was God. He's God manifested in flesh. A prophet's a prophet, but He was God. Like this little gift here that I have.
Now, Jesus had the Spirit without measure, but we have It in measure. Like this, Jesus might've had all the oceans, but this little gift I have, is just a spoonful out of the ocean. But my friends, the same material, the same chemicals that's in the ocean is in the spoonful. [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.] Jesus was God.
This woman said, she said, "Do you believe the Bible?"
I said, "I do."
She said, "If I'll prove that Jesus was just a man by the Bible, will you say the same?"
I said, "If the Bible said so, for I believe the Bible."
She said, "All right."
I said, "Go ahead."

L-24 And she said, "In Saint John 11, when Jesus was going down to the grave of Lazarus, why, He wept. It proves then that He was a man. But if He'd been God, He could not have weeped."
I said, "Oh, lady, you're wrong." I said, "I'll admit that He was a God-man, His flesh was flesh, but God was in Him. He was a man."
Listen, "When He was going down to the grave weeping, He was a man weeping. But when He stood by the side of the grave of a man that had been dead four days, his body was rotten, his spirit was four day's journey out somewhere; He straightened up His little body. The Bible said there is no beauty we should desire Him, but He said, 'Lazarus, come forth.' And a man that'd been dead four days, stood on his feet, a live healthy man. That was more than a man. That was God." Amen.

L-25 He was a man when He come down off the mountain, hungry, looking around the tree for something to eat. That was a man, hungry, but when He took five biscuits, and two pieces of fish, and fed five thousand, that was more than a man. That was God.
That was a man laying in the back of the boat, so tired from healing, He couldn't raise, couldn't wake Him up. Out on the stormy sea, the little ship like a bottle stopper, ten thousand devils of the sea said they'd drown Him. The waves didn't wake Him up. He was tired. He was a man. But when He woke up, put His foot upon the brail of the boat, and looked up towards heaven, and said, "Peace." and look out to the waves and said, "Be still." That was more than a man. That was God in that man.

L-26 He was a man when He died crying for help on Calvary, but when He raised up Easter morning, He proved He was God. God was in His Son. Do you believe that? Say, "Amen." [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.]
God is in His universe. God is in His Word. God is in His Son. Now, do you believe God is in His people?
Look at Elijah, after he was dead and the flesh went off his bones, they laid a dead man on his body, and God was still on him in that grave, and raised that dead--dead man up.
Look at the Pentecostal experience. When they went up in the upper room, they were praying. [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.] They become brave; they went out into the streets, praising God. They didn't care what the people said. God is in His people.
Now, like Apostle Paul, and they put handkerchiefs on his body, sent it to the sick, and they were healed.

L-27 There was Saint Peter, a fisherman, ignorant, unlearned, the Bible said. And they laid the people in his shadow. And as many as laid in his shadow and believed was made whole.
It wasn't Peter, neither was it Paul. It was God in His people. Right here every night you see the Spirit of God make the paralyzed stand up, all kinds of things being done, supernatural works of vision. You believe God's in His people? Say, "Amen." [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] God is with His people then.
Just a moment. I want to ask you something before we start praying for the sick. You need your... They need their eyes open. You become so earth... People become so earthbound, just like this was the only place there was, but there's a heavenly world too. It's all around us.
