<TITLE>10. Par 38-41</TITLE>L-38 Now, if we'll be well behaved, some glorious day we'll fall heir to all the things. God in His appointed day that He will judge all men by Christ Jesus, the time will come when God will give out the rewards for those who were faithful, and the rejecting of those who failed to be faithful.
Just before the going away of the Lord Jesus, God, being in Him, the Dove leading the Lamb, He came not to do His own, but to do the will of the Father that sent Him, He was led by the Spirit to take Peter, James, and John to this exceeding high mountain. I love it.
And another point, if you'll excuse me for taking so much time, that I wish to place before this audience this morning, that this had another meaning to it. After leaving the mountain, and coming down, the question was asked, "Who does men say I, the Son of man, am? Who... What does people say about Me as I am with you, and I have been made manifest to you? Now, what does men say about Me, the Son of man?"

L-39 Watch it. What a beautiful picture of today. After you have received Christ, after you have been filled with the Spirit, what does man say about you then? What does man say, that when they see your emotions, so stirred unto you can't hold your peace, the tears of joy will flow down your cheeks, when you can't keep your hands down, when they're singing the songs of Zion, when you can't hold your peace when you see sin and you must speak peacefully and quietly to them? What does man say about it?
What does man say that when you're a laying, dying, miserable, wretched, in a dying condition, and you'll ask some child of God to join with you in prayer for your healing, and you confess your faults, and lay the thing before the Father, say, "Father, forgive me. And now, I accept Christ as my Healer," and you're made well?
"What does men say, Who I the Son of man, am?"

L-40 I'm looking on an audience of people, and some of you I know miserably years ago dying with cancer, the last stage. Some of you in all kinds of shapes, figures, blind, and God by His grace, healed you. "And as you give your gallant testimony in the face of people, what does man say that I the Son of man, what do they say about Me?"
How the picture has even changed from that day though as black as it was. Some say it's fanaticism. Some called him Beelzebub. Some says it's mental telepathy. Some says it's excitement. Some says it's fanaticism. Some says it's emotional. But what do you say about it? What sayeth you about this thing? Perpetuous Peter usually speaks out of turn, but this time he didn't. He said, "Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. I don't care what the rest of them say, that's what I know. Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God."

L-41 Listen, we could spend much time there, but let's go on. Jesus said, "Blessed..." Though men may curse, though men may make fun, men may say you're a holy-roller; men may call you any name under the sun; but He said, "Blessed art thou, Simon by Jonas your father (Here it is now, are you ready?) for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you. You never learned this through some dogmatic seminary; neither did you learn it from some declaration of some man's theology. Flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father which is in heaven has revealed this to you."
