<TITLE>02. Par 5-8</TITLE>L-5 Now, with these men that You've chosen, and called to be ministers, and elders, we're going to lay hands upon them just as we were--as though we were baptizing them. And they've been anointed; the prayer of faith is offered, and hands are being laid on them. We pray that their faith now will look to Thee, O Almighty God, and be made well in Jesus' Name we pray.
Now, I asked the elders come right down here along the line as we lay hands on them. And as each one places your hand on the sick... [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]
If you will give me your undivided attention just for a few moments, if you please. I'll try not to take too much time as I lay my watch here to be sure. Brother Beeler, I think you're on the recorder at the other end, and Leo and Gene isn't here. So I want you to, if you will, to recording of this testimony that I shall give in a few minutes to be sent to Brother Boze. He--he picked this up.

L-6 I wish to read this morning from the--the Book of Saint Mark the 12th chapter. We want to take a portion of this, and read it, and... because it is God's holy unadulterated Word. And we believe that God is in His Word. Do you believe that? And we are praying that God will add His blessings to It, as we read It. And I'm sure that He will.
And then I want to take another portion of His Word out of Acts the 1st chapter. And we shall read from then. And I'm asking the Lord, if He will add His blessings to the--to the reading of His Word. I was just looking here, I had a mark here in my--in my Bible that I wanted to read from first, but I don't think I can find it just at the time. Just excuse me for a moment, till I can find it, if I can; I thought I had it.
... Jesus... said unto them, Have faith in God.
For verily I say unto you, if ye shall say to this mountain, Be... moved, and... do not doubt in your heart, but... believe that those things you say will come to pass; you shall have what you say.
Now, over in Acts the--the 1st chapter and the 8th verse.
But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in... Judaea, and in Samaria, and to the utmost parts of the earth.

L-7 I'd like to draw your attention to the Word of the Lord this morning for just awhile. I want you to pay the utmost attention to it. Listen closely. The value of this Word... After twenty-five years of ministry for the Lord in His work and in His Word, and after this being coming in my twelfth year of international evangelism, and by the grace of God to meeting tens of thousands of--of people, and seeing our Lord in our own campaigns... When... Now, as I have seen to Him, oh, right in towards two million people, or million five hundred thousand somewhere along in there in the meeting, I've come to this conclusion. And of all of our efforts and so forth, it's impossible for God to do anything for the people until the people first get settled on whether it's truth or not.

L-8 You just can't... No matter, I have seen great masterpieces of our Lord in the--the Word, who could explain the Word better than anyone I ever seen, and yet could not make the program go over. And I have on my mind this morning a certain man that I think has one of the best radio programs on the air, but there's somehow the man can't put his program over, that's Dr. White, a real teacher, but there's something wrong. I don't know where it's at. He's got the vision. And he's got the idea. He's got the ability. But he just simply can't get the program to moving somehow. The program that he's got is strictly on the Word, and it should bring the world to their knees.
