<TITLE>12. Par 59-64</TITLE>L-59 And he run in, said, "Sarah, knead just a little meal, or sift it out, put some bread on the hearth and make some cake." He run out to the herd and got a fat calf, killed it, let a servant dress it. And he come out there... And I'd imagine, like we used to in Kentucky, have an old fly bush to keep the flies away (And, how many knows what a fly bush is? My, my. All right.)--and keep the flies away. And Abraham standing there after he had washed Their feet...
And They stood and eat the meat of the calf, drank the milk from the cow, and the butter and eat corn bread. And One of Them was Almighty God.

L-60 I said that to a person not long ago; they said, "Billy, do you mean to tell me that you believe that that was God?"
I said, "The Bible said it was."
He said, "How could you imagine God coming down with dirt on His clothes and so forth, and stand there and eat that meat?"
I said, "You just don't know God."
God is a Creator. Yes, sir. He had His back turned to the tent like that. And when He told Abraham what He was going to do, why, Sarah laughed. He said, "Why did Sarah laugh?"

L-61 Now, you unbeliever, is that mental telepathy? What touched back there in the tent? Sarah said, "I didn't laugh."
He said, "Oh, yes, you did laugh too." Certainly He did. Walked right out and disappeared. You know what it was? Here's my opinion of it. God came down, and He was going down to see the sins of Sodom and Gomorrah. The only thing He done was get Him a little handful of calcium, potash, petroleum, cosmic light, said, "Phew. [Brother Branham illustrates.--Ed.] Come here, Gabriel; step in this." (That's right.), walked over and got Him another handful and put Michael on the other side, and just got a handful and stepped in it Himself, and was hungry because He had a body to hunger in, and then turned right around and vanished it right back, to come down to bring His Message. I'm so glad that my God is that kind of a God.
What does it make any difference what happens to this old body, someday He will speak and it'll come from the dust of the earth. Sure. Showing what He could do... He's God. And when He just spoke it, and there was a body, absolutely. Someday He will call and I'll rise from the dust of the earth.

L-62 Watch Him, what He told Abraham. Said, "Look down and count the sands of the sea."
He said, "I can't."
"Look up and count the stars."
He said, "I can't."
From dust to stars: the resurrection, the seed of Abraham. From the dust of the earth to the stars in glory (Hallelujah.), Christ be the Morning Star, brightest, the Fairest of ten thousand, there He is, the Lily of the valley, the bright and morning Star.

L-63 How He told Abraham what would happen, how He took Sarah, there, turned around and made a young woman out of her. He made a young man out of Abraham, standing there.
Now, look, you might disagree with this. But I want to ask you something, brother, before you criticize it. Now, we know that Sarah was ninety years old and Abraham was a hundred. They'd lived together all these years, and she was barren. Now, we know if God was going to give birth to a child through Sarah, He would have to make her fertile again. Is that right? All right.

L-64 They didn't smoke cigarettes in them days like women do now and can't raise their babies on the breast. They have to put them on bottles. They didn't have bottles in those days. So in order to--to make her again so she could nurse her baby, He had to create milk veins and fix her over so the baby could nurse. Right?
Now, I want to ask you; I'm your brother. You listen to a doctor. This is flat before a mixed audience, but I--I want you to understand as your brother. How could that woman go in labor with a heart that old? Couldn't do it, so He had to put a new heart in her. Know what He done? He never did that. He made a new woman out of her to show what He was going to do. I can see as He prove it by the Bible. The Bible's writ--so you have to read between the lines now.
