<TITLE>17. Par 73-76</TITLE>L-73 Now, if the organist, the lady, can you play "Abide With Me," sister? Or what... some... If just... I want to put one thing before you. And listen to this closely. [Two messages in tongues are given and interpreted--Ed.]
Although He had done many miracles before them... I'm continuing with the Scripture. You heard what that was saying. Though they could not believe because of the hardness of their heart, Isaiah said, "They have eyes and cannot see and ears and cannot hear." That's the Scripture.
Brother, do you realize, and sister, where you're sitting tonight? I hope that you do. We're in the Presence of Jehovah God. And now, here is one thing sure. I want to make this positive to you in the closing of this service until we have another service at some other date.

L-74 Friends, if Jesus... If our religion of Christianity is the only religion that there is that can prove that their founder is alive. Now, you can't just take and passing tracts and so forth. Bu... They can pass them on Buddha, Mohammed, and Sikhs, and so forth, anything. They can pass any kind of thing. And they can work up psychology and so forth.
But Jesus said, that we would do the same works that He did. That's what the Mohammedan asked the question to the Christian, Dr. Reedhead as I told you about the other night. Said, "We Mohammedans can shout just as much as you can." Thinking that Mohammed will raise someday. "And we can do anything that you can do, because Mohammed only promised life after death. But Jesus promised that if He raised, the very works that He did that you would do also." Said, "We're waiting for you to do that and we'll believe." See?

L-75 They're not ignorant by a long ways. See? But the Church has failed to carry out the commission. That's all. Humble yourself and stand before God. And God will--is obligated to His Word. Now, look, don't be scared. Now, there's good people that get scared.
Now, I want to ask you something. One night, there was a storm on the sea and there was... The disciples was about to perish. And they looked and they seen Jesus coming, the only thing that could help them, 'cause the sails were broke and the oars was gone and the sea was--the little old boat was waterlogged and they were going to bottom of the sea. And when they saw the only help that could help them, they were scared of It, thought It was spooky.
How typical that is of the Church tonight. When Jesus stood on the shore and talked to them after His resurrection, they didn't know Him. They didn't know nothing of it. I want to ask you something. When--when... Two of His disciples, after His resurrection, after He was dead, and buried, and rose again, before He ascended to the Father. Now, the only way...

L-76 Did He ever appear after He ascended to the Father? Yes, sir. Who do--to? Saint Paul. What did He looked like? A Pillar of Light. A Light blinded Paul. Here it is. The same exactly Jesus, photographed and on paper. He's appeared again. Why? The prophet said, "It'll be light in the evening. But it'll be a day that won't be neither night or day."
We've come from the orients when the Holy Spirit fell at the beginning. We've come through a day of churchanity. That's right. Civilization has come from the east going westward. We're at the west coast where the east and west meets again.
Notice, and all through this we've had enough light to believe on Christ, accept Him as personal Saviour. But "In the evening," the prophet said, "it shall be light." Now, on the western people is poured out the same evidence of the Holy Spirit that was poured out on the eastern people, God making up His Body. You see? It's Light.
