<TITLE>26. Par 88-90</TITLE>L-88 I can see Him coming down, and the disciples standing there. They could... They had power, but they didn't have faith to use it. How true that is with this group of people tonight. Jesus, ten days before, give them power to heal the sick and raise the dead, and here they was on the epileptic case and had failed. They couldn't do it. This father run out and said, "Lord, I brought my son to Your disciples, and they couldn't do nothing for him." Said, "Can you help him?"
He said, "I can if you believe, but it's up to you to believe."
So when the devil was gone from the boy, the disciples said, "Why couldn't we do it?"
Said, "Because of your unbelief." Not the lack of power. This church has power enough tonight right in here this group of people to do anything, but you haven't got faith enough to do it. You won't--just won't do it.

L-89 You have faith enough to walk, sir. You have power enough if you had faith. You have power enough too, lady, in the cot, if you'd believe, but that's up to you. See? The finished work, I couldn't do nothing. If Christ was standing right here with this suit on, He couldn't do nothing for you. He's already done it. It's already finished at Calvary. See? He'd asked you, "Don't you believe that I did it then?"
"Yes, Lord."
Say then, "According to your faith, believe it. Act on it." That's all He can do. He can't... If you're redeemed... If something's in a pawn shop, and you've redeemed it, and got a receipt for it, how can you redeem it again? It's already paid for.

L-90 Now, this young lady standing here, I suppose we being strange to each other, God in heaven knows our hearts. But I--I--I don't know you, and as far as I know I've never seen you in my life, but God knows us both. He knows all about us.
Now, like the woman at the well, the very picture tonight again here a woman and a man. Now, Jesus went in and set down against the well. And the woman come out to get some water. He begin to talk to her. He said, "Bring Me a drink."
She said, "It's not customary for you Jews to ask Samaritans such."
Said, "Well, but if you knew Who you were talking to, you'd ask Me for a drink and I'd give you water you don't come here to draw."
She said, "The well's deep, and You haven't got nothing to draw with." And the conversation went on and on and on.
After while He found where her trouble was. He said, "Go get your husband."
She said, "I don't have any."
Said, "That's right. You got five."
She said, "Sir, I perceive that You are a prophet." She said, "We know that when Messiah cometh, He will tell us these things, all things, but Who are You?"
He said, "I'm He." That was the sign of the Messiah. Now, here we are after nineteen hundred and something years, again tonight here stands man and woman. Now, He said, "I do nothing till the Father shows Me. The things that I do, shall you also." Here's the man and woman, the Bible laying here, God's promise, the Holy Ghost here. Now, what's He going to do about it. He's got to keep His Word, lady. He has, and if I'm an honest man in my heart, I'll tell you that everything you have need of... For you are a Christian. Your spirit feels welcome, and I know you're a Christian. Everything that you have need of was purchased at Calvary. The only thing that I can do is just to, maybe, be as a--as a prophet, or... I--I don't like to say that name, that... As being able to see visions... See? That staggers people too much, the reason I say that. See? They don't understand. Thank you. You believe that, then you can receive. God bless you.
