<TITLE>16. Par 55-59</TITLE>L-55 Advertised in the paper, if there'd be five dead people raised from the grave tonight, and tomorrow morning we'd get that much space in the paper of it, way over in the backside somewhere. That's right, sure. The world knows their own. What do you think Jesus would get tonight if He come in here and raised so many dead people? That's what He would get, just like He got in the... What would the--what would the people, the--the so called Christians, that go to these big orthodox places, and don't believe in Divine healing, and just so they belong to church, what would they say? "It's some kind of a trick. It's mental telepathy."

L-56 They said the same thing back there about Him. They said, "He's Beelzebub. He's a fortuneteller. Don't hear nothing about that; keep away from such. If anybody goes over to that little click of His, why, we'll excommunicate them." But the Bible said the common people heard Him gladly. The poor went to... Same thing tonight...
I'll say this, my brother: Chicago has been shook. Don't you worry, Brother Mattsson. God bless your little heart. You've cried a many a night and prayed and I seen you fasted; you look, circles under your eyes. Don't worry, your reward's waiting up there at the head of the ladder. That's right. But Chicago, you just don't see it. I don't... Looking at it natural, I wouldn't either, but when you look over yonder in that dimension, you see what's talking about. See? There's more done... God...
No man can come until the Father calls him. See? Why did Nathanael run way over there--Philip, to get Nathanael? See what I mean? You see? One of--one of them...

L-57 Now, Jesus is raised from the dead; He's here. If you've got eyes, may you see. If you've got ears to hear, may you hear. But if you haven't, you can't. So let us pray.
Heavenly Father, I pray that there'll be many in here tonight that will see, hear, and may it fall deep in their hearts, and may they believe. For we ask it in Jesus Christ's Name. Amen.

L-58 All right. He give out... What'd you... Is 100 now, in D. There's 100 prayer cards out in D.D., 100 prayer card in D's. Last night we called the first part; let's go over and call the last part tonight. We had... What was it in the line last night? Fifteen, wasn't it? About fifteen's just about as many as I can get to in a night. I don't want you to stand in vain. I might not get to that many. I'll try my best. But let's take... That would be D-85. Will 85, 95? 85, D-85, who has it? Raise up your hand. Anybody got D-85, would you raise up? 85, 86, raise up your hand, 86? Line up over there. 87? Come this way, lady. 87? All right. 87. 88? All right, brother, over here to the right. 89? D-89? Did I miss your hand? D-89? All right. 90? Who has D-90? 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, and 100. Let those people line up over here.
And now, while they're lining up, and the ushers... Brother Wood, if you'll help him there just the little bit, you and brother, or some of you, so we could hurry and--and preserve the time. I want to talk to the audience.

L-59 Now, I want you to look this way just a minute. Now, especially to the newcomers, I want to say this. If Jesus Christ, if my Gospel that I preach of His Word, is the truth, then how many believes that the Bible said in Hebrews 13:8, that Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever? Do you believe it? All right. Then how many knows this, that Jesus Christ... Now, we're talking about Him yesterday, when He was here on earth, what He is today and what He will ever be.
When Jesus Christ was here on earth, the Son of God, manifested, God manifested in flesh, being Emmanuel, when He was here on earth He did not claim to be a healer. Let's see your hands. How many knows the Bible said that He wasn't a healer? How many knows the Bible said this? "It's not Me that doeth the works; it's My Father that dwelleth in Me, He doeth the works." How many... All right. Then He did not claim to be a healer.
