<TITLE>04. Par 13-15</TITLE>L-13 And now, if you're dealing with sin... Now, maybe you never sinned, but there might be a sin that your father did, your grandfather did. He said He'd visit the iniquity of the parents upon the third and fourth generation. And each generation gets weaker and wiser as the Bible said. But it's all started from sin. Before sin ever came into the world there were no sickness in the world. And sickness came through the fall, and the fall was sin, and sin is unbelief.
"He that believeth not is condemned already." Before you even get started you're condemned. You're born in sin, shaped in iniquity, come to the world speaking lies. No matter how much you was dedicated on the altar, how many times you were sprinkled, baptized, poured, whatever it is, you're still a sinner, that's all, until you repent and God recognizes and seals that promise with the Holy Spirit. That's right. Then you're borned again. Then you're son and daughter of God. It's a regeneration, a new creation. Then your attributes, your--your thoughts are not like they were, your life is not like it was. You become a complete surrendered vessel to God, and He speaks and uses you, and you're not your own no more. But you're bought with a price. That's the price of the precious Blood of the Lord Jesus Christ. Think of it.

L-14 Now, for instance, they cut--try to cut Divine healing off from salvation. And as they say, "Oh, I believe Christ saves the soul, but don't heal the body." Well, that's just... The devil just took and turned the picture around. In the early days they said He can heal, but He makes Hisself God to forgive people. See? Just the devil just vice versa'd the picture. If He's Almighty God, He can do all things. And if He can't do all things, He isn't Almighty God. Certainly not. And if He is, He's the same yesterday, today, and forever. You see it?
Now, for instance, of healing... Say there's a great big serpent here, dragon, and he had his paw in my side, cutting me with his paw. Well now, I don't have to cut his paw off to get rid of it; just knock him in the head. It kills the whole serpent. And when you deal with sin, you deal with sickness and everything it caused. You have to. That's just his foot, but it's all governed by his head. So sin was the head of it and the whole thing fell.

L-15 And Christ promised that He would meet on the earth wherever two or three were gathered together. He promised it. Now, sometimes He meets and councils with--one time with five hundred. Another time after His resurrection, He met with seventy, another time with twelve, another time with three, another time with one. Wherever men are gathered together, Christ promised to meet with them. He's omnipresent, everywhere, covers all space. He's omnipresent, omnisc--omniscient, and He's omnipotent, all wisdom, all power, all places, everywhere. And He's infinite.
He knowed the very end from the beginning. He knowed every flea, every louse, every fly, every person. Everything that ever happened at the very beginning, He knew it all. If He wasn't, He wasn't God. So therefore, He can fore-ordinate things to His--work to His pleasure. That's the reason He said He hated Esau and loved Jacob before either boy was ever born, because He knew that Esau was a shyster to begin with. See? So He knew it by foreknowledge. What is the Bible? The Bible is the very thoughts that God had before the foundation of the world, expressed them in Word, and dropped them down to prophets, and they wrote them. That's the only thing it is: just has to unfold.
God knows all things, and by a Spirit of knowledge, why God drops it to His prophets as eagles who sail up in the air and sees things to happen before it gets there. You see?
