<TITLE>02. Par 5-7</TITLE>L-5 And now I am trying to make the arrangements, and I--and I'm going to see Mrs. Arnold. I... There's a man here in Louisville that's been very good when I was having meetings here. And his name is Brother Durvan. And he wanted a--a night or two service. I'm going to see her little Teddy, I believe Teddy Arnold, for some time this week.
And then the coming Saturday and Sunday, if I can, the Lord willing, I want to be down at Madisonville. They had twenty-five, thirty ministers out there, all of them setting there, come for some, one of them just six, seven hundred miles. Well, no one there, so... wasn't there... And no fault of my own, but I just-- it just through misunderstanding or neglecting to call him. I'll try to be down there next weekend, the Lord willing.
Then on the fifth to the sixth, I'm in Brooklyn, New York. And then from... Then on the 14th, 15th, and 16th in Parkersburg, West Virginia, just made those two arrangements last night and this morning. Now, Charlotte, South Carolina, is just on the list, but I don't know. Then the holidays come on and we go over to the west coast, which they're fixing a--a big auditorium meeting. Now, these are--are little meetings like in high schools and things like that. The one over there on the west coast is going to be two cities, a joint city, a meeting of Oakland and San Francisco.
And then, the Phoenix delegation, being that Brother Roberts can't be there this year, I'm to kinda take his place down at Phoenix in the--in the whole Maricopa region meetings. That's a union effort. And pray for me, because I--I need it. And I realize that every time faith sets itself up, the devil turns every gun in hell right on it like that. You see? So it makes it pretty hard.

L-6 So this morning to pray for the sick... Now, we want to read some of God's eternal Word, and speak just a few moments from the Scriptures, and then have prayer for the sick.
Oh, how I love to talk about Him, don't you? I just love to talk about Him. Now, I want to read out of the Bible: II Kings the 2nd chapter, the 12th verse, a portion of it.
 And Elijah saw it, and... cried, My father, my father, the chariots of Israel, and the horsemen thereof.
And now, for a way of text or subject, I want to speak on "A Secondhanded Robe." So may the Lord add His blessings as we talk to you this morning. And you be in prayer for us.

L-7 During this time of the reign of Israel in the land, Israel was a nation. And it was a mighty nation, and it was kind of a peaceful time among the military part of it, but in the--the spiritual part of it, it was kinda a--a time of--of impersonation. And if we look back into the Old Testament, we can always find examples of what's going on today. Always in the Bible the things that are now are just the antitypes of what was at the beginning.
Now, the book of Genesis produces everything that's in the world today. There's nothing in the world but what didn't begin in Genesis, for it is the beginning. In there started every ism. In Genesis started everything that started. And the true Church started in Genesis. And the false believers started in Genesis. And the indifference started in Genesis. Genesis was the beginning.
