<TITLE>06. Par 16-17</TITLE>L-16 Now, He said, "I come from God and I go to God. Yet a little while and the world sees Me no more." Then He said that we would see Him. Now, if we were looking for Him, what type of person would we look for?
Oh, I--I just love to take the Word. I believe the Word. That's the Truth always. God's Word is the Truth. I believe that every promise of God is absolutely the Truth. And at the right mental attitoword--attitude, pardon me... The right mental attitude toward any Divine promise of God, will bring it to pass (That's right.) if you can look at the Word right. Now, there's many things that maybe I could not bring to pass with my faith. But I would never stand in the way of somebody else who had the faith to bring it to pass. If I couldn't go where--drop the walls of Jericho like Joshua did, or take a little afternoon walk like Enoch did and go home with him, I would never stand in somebody's way who could do that. But I'm thankful to have faith to believe that it's true. God said so. That makes it true. It's God's eternal Word.
And our soul rests solemnly upon His Word. And faith cannot be based anywhere else. All theology and man-made isms are sinking sands. And faith cannot find its resting place upon the shifting sands of man's theology. It's got to find it's solemn resting place on the immovable rock of Almighty God's Word. There's where it anchors, "God said so."
That settles it. That's forever the truth.
Now, if He said that He is the same, and the world would see Him no more, we can't expect then the unbeliever to ever witness it or know it. And then if He said, "Ye shall see Me, for I'll be with you to the end of the world, even in you," then we know that God's got a remnant somewhere who is going to see Him, 'cause He promised it.

L-17 Now, notice. What would we look for tonight if we thought Christ was in Saskatoon tonight? What kind of a person would we look for? Would we look for a person who was a great, swell educator? No, sir. Would we look for a person in some great, high cathedral or synagogue? No, sir. If He's the same, He wouldn't be there. He would be rejected there just like He was, if He is the same. Would we look for a person who spoke great, with a great education, with a great scholarship? Certainly not, if He's the same.
That's where the translators get mixed up in the Bible. They try to translate it with some great high word of the Hebrew, when it was just spoken regular street language. The common people heard Him gladly. They didn't understand it.
Like the word, the English, that we call English. Of all my travels, I never needed an interpreter any worse in all my life, than I did in England. That's where I needed it worst. I could not understand that to save me. Way down, the little cockney type, you know, way down in the throat here. I just couldn't; I just had to give it up. I couldn't--couldn't talk at all. They said, "What part of Texas you from?" when they'd--they'd hear that talk that I have. And I was called at Miami, Florida, to New York City, to pray for a man though on the telephone. And the little operator at Miami couldn't understand that little Yankee, and neither could the little Yankee understand that Rebel. And they had to go through St. Louis and get someone to interpret for them, right in the United States. You see, it's the difference. Language varies.
And so Jesus spoke the common language. And that's what He would speak tonight so the common people would hear Him. Notice, then we would look for a person of that type.
Now remember, Christ is promised to be in you. Now, let's see what He did in His life, see what His ministry was; and if we can see that same thing repeat, then we know that He's still alive. Now, let's notice Him, what He did. Now, be careful, 'cause I'm going to give some trapping questions here.
