<TITLE>05. Par 13-16</TITLE>L-13 Fellowship, wonderful thing. Now, why does men like fellowship? Why is it men like to meet with men, women meet with women? ...(Woman: frau)... We all like to meet together. The ladies meet together and sew and talk; the men go to table and they have things in common that they like to talk about. That come from somewhere. What makes you love your children? Because you're a father. That's the strain, human strain. That's the reason it proves that we have a heavenly Father that loves we His children. All the things is now, made of things that was. The Bible said there's nothing new in the world.
Now, in the beginning, when God made a man, He didn't make him to be sick. He didn't make him to have cancer. He never made him to die. He made him for fellowship.
Now, in the evening when it was quiet, God came down and had fellowship with Adam and Eve. They loved God. God loved them. He didn't want them to be sick, get old, and die. He wanted to be young and lovely forever. But sin brought us here, not God, against God's will. We ourselves plunged ourself into that.

L-14 Now, Jesus came to restore the human race. Everything that he lost in Eden, and we're on our road... Now, we have the earnest of that deliverance. Now, we are--have the Holy Spirit, which is the Life of God in a portion. ...(portion, or a small part)... When we are in His Presence at--at the end of life, then we will have the full Spirit. This is called the Earnest of our salvation. Now, we also believe that we'll have a immortal body someday. When Jesus comes, these vile bodies will be changed. And we'll have a body like His own glorious body. How many believes that? Thank you. I'm happy to see you believe that. I look for that day myself.
Notice, if we have that and that was included in redemption, we've got to have Divine healing for the earnest of our complete deliverance. If there is no Divine healing, there's no resurrection of the dead. How about that, teacher? If there is no Divine healing, there's no resurrection. Divine healing is the earnest of the resurrection. If the Holy Spirit is here, that is the Earnest of our eternal life. Do you believe that?

L-15 The reason that God included Divine healing, how could you take it out of the Gospel, when He was wounded for our transgressions; with His stripes we were healed? The same Blood from the same Man on the same day: one for salvation, one for healing. To deny one is to deny the other.
They have just turned it around today. In the days of Jesus here on earth in a physical body, they said, "We know He can heal, but He makes hisself God by forgiving sin." Now today, they say, "He's all right. He can forgive sins, but He can't heal." But praise be to God, He can do both. I am a witness. And I'm sure there's many others here of the millions around the world too.

L-16 Now, the only way you'll ever appreciate that, and to understand it, is to come back into fellowship with God. How can the carnal mind ever understand the things of God? They are foolishness, the Bible said, to him. He can't understand it. He can't reason it out. But the born again spirit doesn't reason it. They just believe it and act on it like Abraham did.
Abraham, the father of the faithful, God told him when he was sixty-five years old (I mean that was his wife was sixty-five and he was seventy-five.), that they were going to have a baby. Could you imagine that? Could you imagine a man in Germany, going down to a fine doctor to make room at the hospital, him seventy-five and his wife sixty-five? Been living with her since she was seventeen, no children yet, but God said, "You're going to have one." And Abraham believed God. No matter what science said, Abraham believed God.
