<TITLE>05. Par 10-13</TITLE>L-10 And now, Abraham believed God. How he got this great name of being the father of nations, he believed God and believed in hope. Against hope, he still believed in hope, knowing that God was able to perform what He had promised.
Oh, my young brother setting there in a wheelchair, if you could only see that promise tonight, sonny boy. Calvary's before you. And if you can just move the shadows from your mind, look there something would anchor down in here, there would be nothing in the world ever move it. You'd be pushing that wheelchair out the building and around the Cable Tabernacle, and the place where you come from.
And you that's dying with heart trouble: worst killer there is... Cancer, doctors can hardly do a thing about it... I heard on the radio the other day, that it couldn't be proved that one time an operation for cancer was ever successful. They call it a fourth dimension disease. But God's got the cure. Medicine is remedies. God is the cure. "I'm the Lord that healeth all of thy diseases."

L-11 Now, if Abraham believed God because God said so, then we being Abraham's seed, we have the same type of faith Abraham had. 'Cause God called Abraham by election. How did he call you? By election. The only way you could be called is by election. "No man can come to Me except My Father calls him first." God does the electing; then you just follow.
And then, if He called you... "And all that comes to Me I'll give them everlasting life, and will no wise cast him out, and raise him up in the last day."
Those who He foreknew, He has called. Those who He has called, He justified. Those who He justified, He has glorified. That's God's Word. I love It, because I can put my confidence in It and believe It and know that It's the truth.

L-12 I just made a remark a few moments ago: In my travels around the world I find two classes of people: two churches, as to speak. There's only one church, but this is what I mean. I find the fundamental people, who positionally know what they are in Christ Jesus. But I say this with reverence, they don't have much faith in what they believe.
Now. Then the next class is the Pentecostal. They got a lot of faith but don't know who they are. That's it. Now, it's just like a man's got money in the bank and he doesn't know how to write a check. The next man can write a check, but he hasn't got no money in the bank. If you could ever get them two together, you would have it.
If I could get Pentecostal faith and fundamental doctrine, or get fundamental doctrine and Pentecostal faith, the millennium would start right away. There would be something wonderful. But the Pentecostal people, with respect and knowing that probably eighty percent of this crowd is Pentecostal... Lovely people, but you--you shout all your joy away. You shout all your faith away. If you'd take that and place it solemnly in what God said, and know that's what is making you happy, and know that what gives you redemption which you're happy about and you should be... If you'd use that faith yonder at Calvary and take God and say "It's You, Lord, and there isn't one speck of me that doubts it," things would take place.

L-13 There's an intellectual faith. We are a trinity, like God is in our soul, body, and spirit. Now the--science said a few years ago that when God said, "That as a man thinketh in his heart so is he," they said that God don't know what He was talking about. And when the Bible said, "Your--your body's full of light," the old scientist said, "Oh, isn't that crazy?" the infidel.
But look, God proves that your body's full of light. The x-ray proves that. It's your own light meters in your body, not the light of the x-ray. It has no light. It's your light meters that takes the--make the x-ray. So your body is full of light. And then every little cell there's a light cell in here.
