<TITLE>08. Par 26-27</TITLE>L-26 And in this day, when people try to allow Him to be no more than a prophet, I tell you, it spurs a person; especially anyone's got the message and the world on his shoulders, to try to preach the Gospel to, and try to allow Him to a prophet.
He was Emmanuel, the Bible said; God with us. God, Jehovah, dwelt in His Son, without measure. We are sons by adoption, Jesus had the Spirit without measure, we get it by measure. Now, Jesus was like... the Spirit of God that was in Jesus was like the ocean...?... up to Him. You and I have the...?... just like a spoonful out of it, but the same chemicals that's in the spoonful is in the whole ocean, is in the spoonful, only just it's not as much of it.
So, you and I being the sons and daughters of God, we derive the same...?... and the same things that Jesus did, we should do them also 'cause He said so.
Now, watch Him when He was here. Let's follow Him. And you that like to follow the Scripture turn with me now to Saint John the first chapter. We find His ministry just in the...?... He come down and prayed for the sick and many things had happened. And there was a fellow by the name of Stephen, or not Stephen, by the name of Philip, pardon me. He got saved. And as, and as soon as he got saved he went and found somebody else, his friend.
That's a good sign he got saved, when you go to hunt somebody else. Christianity's not a selfish thing, it's a thing that they want everybody to come join in, Christianity. Like a pool of water, where everybody will come in.

L-27 He went and found his friend. If you was ever in the Holy Land, mark the place where Jesus was standing there ministering to the sick, and where Philip left him and went and, around several miles, back around the bend in the road; behind the mountain. And he found a fellow over there who was just as orthodox and as gun--barrel straight as he could be. A real Israelite, belonged to the good church, and he found him under a tree praying, and Philip being all excited, he said to Nathanael, his friend, "Come see Who we found."
Listen now; we're talking about the faith, "Come see Who we found, Jesus of Nazareth, the Son of Joseph."
And Nathanael raising up, said this, "Could there be any good thing come out of Nazareth?" A wicked city.
And he gave him the best answer that any man could give him? "Come see." That's the best way to find out, "Come see for yourself." Said, "Come see."
They walked on with each other and went around the bend. That evening...?... come in, and there stood Jesus praying for the sick. He walked up in the audience about like you're sitting, and when he did, He looked at him, and He said, "Behold, an Israelite, in whom there's no guile." Jesus said to Nathanael, the first time He ever saw him in His life. What? Listen now, "Behold an Israelite in whom there is no guile."
If I'd say it today, I'd say, "There is a Christian, a honest man."
And he looked at Him, and said, "Rabbi, (or teacher) when did You know me? How did You know anything about me?" Now He said, "Before Philip called you, when you were under the tree, I saw you." Is that right?
