<TITLE>04. Par 13-16</TITLE>L-13 You know, Jesus said, "I was needing clothes and you didn't clothe Me. I was hungry and you didn't feed Me." So we want to remember those things. God bless that young lady.
I was thinking today of her as she went down to the broadcast, a nice looking young woman, and--and she's scholarly, educated, one of the best nurses we got in the--the nation, to my opinion. Or I believe that she is a Adlai Stevenson, wasn't it, private nurse or something? [A man says, "Right."--Ed.] And a woman that would sacrifice every thing and go to a country to give her life for the Lord Jesus, that means a whole lot. That has to come from God to do that. And I certainly admire this young lady.

L-14 Now, I want to read two parts of the Scripture, and just take a few moments, then we'll start the prayer line, 'cause, not to take up your time, and we are in a hurry to get going back, and then pray for some of the sick.
Over in Saint John the 17th chapter and the 1st verse, these lovely words of our Saviour.
These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son... thy Son also may glorify thee.
And in Revelations the 1st chapter and the first two or three verses...
The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto the saints things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:
Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw.
Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of the--this prophecy, and keep the things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.
I would take, if it was, for a text for just a few moments, "The Time Is At Hand."

L-15 You know, this was the revelation that God gave to His aged seer, the last of the prophets of that age, of the original pro--prophets that was with Jesus: John, believed by many theologians to be the John the beloved who leaned on His bosom. And he had been exiled out into the Isle of Patmos for the Word of God's sake. And he was a man who, one time after following the Lord Jesus along, he was a man who wanted to burn down the city, because that they refused to give them some food, said, "Shall we call fire out of heaven?"
But how that God had changed him since Christ had left the outside of him and come inside. And he was out on the Isle of Patmos, known as the--the lover of the New Testament: John the beloved. And exiled out there for preaching the Word, and he was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and God sent an Angel and testified to him the things that was to come. In other words, He laid down the fulfilling of all things that's to be met in the last days is prophesied, and the Book was sealed. Nothing else can be added to It or nothing to be taken away from It.

L-16 And as we read this marvelous Book of Revelations, there's been... In my home church, I taken once, almost a year and a half to go through It, slowly, each night teaching on just the Book of Revelation and comparing It with the rest of the Bible and the ages and so forth that have passed on.
Now, there's time for all things. That's an old American slogan, and it's true. There's times that when you have to break your ground to plant your crop. There's times that you have to sow your seed; then there's time that you reap your seed. There's times that nations has to begin; there's times that nation has to end.
