<TITLE>04. Par 15-17</TITLE>L-15 Now, for instance, in the Old Testament how God gave all of His parables back there and set forth His--His things that would be a shadow of today, then that's the only way that I can teach the Bible. They talk about big Greek words and so forth, they'd just tie me in all kinds of places. But if I look back and see what God did back there as a foreshadow, then I have some general conception of what He's doing today, because that was a shadow.
If I'm going to the--to the west, and my--the sun's rising in the east, and my shadow is before me, and if I never seen myself, or never knowed what I looked like, or a human being, I'd have some conception of my form when I seen my shadow. And the Old Testament is the shadow of the coming of Christ, and everything foreshadowed the cross. And in Christ all God's redemption, all of His plans, all of the plan of salvation, all was met at Calvary.
Now, how beautiful in the Old Testament, how God foreshadowed this Holy Spirit that we're enjoying today. How that He foreshadowed the order in these conventions that how we could come together in fellowship and have a--a fellowship together.

L-16 Back there we see how in the early beginning of the--of the church, that how that God foreshadowed the place today, where I think brethren that we're entering now for this next blessing. Everyone knows that we're just on of--of a--a borrowed time like. The great blessing of Divine healing, and the powers of the supernatural that's gone out, that's brought about a revival that's actually shook the world the hardest it's ever been shook in all the wor--all the times. There has never been a time in any age, that Christianity shook the entire world like it has in the last five or six years. That's right. In ever nation, under ever place, through radio, through--by evangelists, by...
We go into a place in different countries where they don't believe in God, and there they'd find where the ordinary missionary had passed out some tracks (which is fine), but when they see the operation of the supernatural, tens of thousands of heathen fall at the cross and serve the Lord Jesus. It's been a mighty move.

L-17 Now, we've held this ground so long, and I believe with all my heart that we're on the threshold of stepping into another veil yonder, somewhere to where the greater mysteries of God will be known to the church. And me for one, I've got both ears and eyes and heart open to hear the message when it comes, examine it. For Satan will put out a many a false runner, but just lay it aside; remember, it's only signifying that something real is going to take place when you see it. For Satan will do everything (as I said last night) to blockade the real jewel of God when it's coming forth. You'll--you'll hear it. He put out a blockade to catch Abel. He put out one to catch Joseph, one to catch Jesus and so forth and he will do it, one to get Moses. For you can notice those things that Satan will try to block it.
And that's where I believe that the many cults and things, as we see rising over the nation is only a light post to say, "Look out; it will be here soon."
