<TITLE>05. Par 45-51</TITLE>L-45 They said, "Well, if that picture of the Angel of the Lord, that you have on the platform over there," said, "what about that?"
I said, "That's proof, scientific proof, that Jesus Christ still lives and reigns." I said, "That's the same Pillar of Fire, or Light, that followed the children of Israel, and brought them through the wilderness, and taken them to the promised land. And any reader knows that that was the Angel of the Covenant, which was Jesus Christ." And I said, "He was with the Father before the foundation of the world. He's always been. And He's the same today."
"Oh," said, we've heard of your American fantastics, Divine healing services, and things."
I said, "I'm not talking about them. That's not the subject. I'm talking about my own ministry now. Them brothers can defend theirs. But," I said, "I'm talking about my own. See?"
And he said, "Well, we heard all that stuff, and all like that."

L-49 I said, "Well, if you want to believe, you're a believer. If you don't, then you're not a believer; that's all." And I said, "I can't explain it. There's no need of me trying it. For if I'd try to, I would try to explain God. And who can explain God? And God has made it so that none of us can explain God. We believe God by faith, not by sight, not by knowledge; but by faith, we believe God. God is--has to be accepted by faith, inex--unexplainable. You have to receive it. If it's explainable, then you don't no more have to use faith, if you can explain it. See, you don't have... You can tell the details."
How many understands that? Do you see? You cannot explain God. You have to believe God. It's a mystery to you, but you have to accept it. That's on the basis of your faith to accept something that you cannot explain. Amen. That's the way. That's it. See, you have to explain something, and believe something that... I mean, believe something that you cannot explain. It's impossible to explain it.

L-51 Well, they set and scratched one another's heads. And, oh, you know how the sovereignty of God always is on the job, isn't He? No matter what takes place, God's on the job. Right at that very crucial moment, right at the time, when hundreds of those pastors of the state church, setting there at this breakfast, this big German camera setting there. And he would snap the picture, and then roll a roller, turn it over, just like a thirty-five millimeter, only that big, great big camera taking all like that, just snapping, roll it, and kept taking pictures.
And about that time, I said, "Just a moment. The One that I'm speaking of is here now." I said, "He's--He's here, present." I said, "I see It. And He's moving." Well, the German moved his camera right in like that.
He said, "I will try it." He shot the picture.
I said, "It's this man standing right here. He's a leader of thirty-two thousand communists, standing there." And the interpreter give it to him. I said, "He's not a German." I said, "He's an Italian. He comes from Italy." And I said, "He's not a German, at all."
"And that was the truth," he said.
And I said, "You just recently come--become converted."
"Yes. I said, "You picked up a Bible. You was raised a Catholic."
"Yeah."
"And you picked up a Bible. And you took the Bible and you read It, and got convinced that It was--Jesus Christ was the Son of God. And you--and you accepted it."
He said, "That's right."
And I said, "Now, you are hid from the Catholic church, and got an orphanage way up in the mountains."
He said, "That's right."
And I said, "The reason you're not eating your breakfast, is because that you got such a stomach trouble that you can't eat breakfast."
"That was right.' And he started weeping.
I said, "But, THUS SAITH THE LORD, you're healed. Eat your breakfast." That settled it.
