<TITLE>03. Par 14-20</TITLE>L-14 Somehow, when I was in our church. Many of you sprinkle them in baptism, infant baptism; that's all right. We try to follow the Bible. Jesus picked up little children and blessed them. We dedicate them. And in dedication of the little boy at the altar, somehow, I was inspired to say, "Joseph, thou art God's prophet." And maybe when I leave, I pray that a double portion of the Spirit will come upon Joseph for the age to come, if there is one.

L-15 Till I see you my dear friends, I told you the Gospel truth. I've done all that I knowed how to do to present Jesus Christ in all the way that I know how. And you've listened; you've believed; you obeyed.
Now, to many of you people that's setting here, was not in the prayer line, and perhaps will not be in the prayer line tonight, you'll find out; it'll be weeks after I'm gone, that diseases that was in your body was already healed. Now, You just write that down and find out if that isn't true.

L-16 I never said this before, to kinda keep a little of the pressure down, but I'm fixing to leave tonight. It's been constantly all over the audience, that Light appearing to people, like that. And I--I don't... Sometimes I can't call them, but I know they'll find out by and by that it's so, that God has did it. And the things when we was here the last time and told you that the Holy Spirit said that these things would be, you've found it to be the truth. That it would be so, that it would know the very thoughts of the heart. That's nothing but Jesus Christ.

L-17 Now, to some of you newcomers. I wish to say this before I bring my Message, just in a--take a few moments, then the prayer line.
Maybe this might be your first time to be in one of these meetings. I just want to quote a Scripture, because my Message tonight is on salvation. And I do not make Divine healing the main issue. Divine healing is something on the line. I do not say that Divine healing and salvation is on the same basis. When you're saved, you're saved for eternity. But when you're healed, you'll get sick again. Lazarus was raised from the grave, but he died again. Healing is just one of the blessings that goes with salvation. It's the earnest. It's just a down payment and an assurance, that you'll be raised up in the last days.

L-18 Now, I do not claim to be able to heal anyone, because I know better than that, and you also. There's not a man in the world can heal the sick. There's not a doctor in the world can heal the sick. There's not a hospital in the world can heal the sick. There's not a drug in the world can heal the sick. If there is, Mayo brothers knows nothing about it. They say we only claim to assist nature. There's one Healer. That's God.

L-19 What if I was breaking my arm out here, cranking on my car, and run in to the doctor, and say, "Doc, heal my arm right quick. I want to crank my car." He would tell me I needed mental healing. That's true. He can set my arm, but God does the healing. The Lord does all healing. He can move a growth, pull out a tooth, whatmore, but God does the healing. 'Cause healing is developing cells, multiplication of cells. And nothing can create but God himself.

L-20 So in the meeting, what these gifts are for, is only to bring the people to a recognition of the Presence of the Lord. That's all it is. I'll never have to touch you. Only thing you'd have to do is take God's Word and believe it. You could be healed if it was in a cornfield, in the woods, just the same as you could be in this church, just the same. Healing is the finished work that Jesus Christ purchased for you at Calvary, just the same as He purchased your salvation.
