<TITLE>10. Par 47-52</TITLE>L-47 So we have to cast away reasonings. Then if we believe God, we must be borned again, and when a man's borned again, his nature becomes of his Parent. God has no reasoning powers. He just speaks, and it's so. And we become His children.
No wonder people can't believe in Supernatural. They have no powers to believe with. They try to reason it out. You'll never get it. You just believe it. God said so; that settles it.

L-48 So Jesus said, "These signs shall follow them that believe." Now, we've been told that that was just for the apostles alone. Well, if it was, then why did He say, "Go into all the world and to every creature." These signs was to be preached to every creature in all the world. The gospel has never reached all the world or every creature.
As I say with a shamed face as a minister, Christian religion is in about fourth place. Better than two-thirds of the entire world never heard the Name of Jesus Christ. Two-thirds of the earth, the world today never heard that blessed Name.

L-49 Jesus said, "Into all the world, these signs shall follow."
Someone says now, "That meant to all the world then. And they did evangelize the world then."
Well, if that's so, then Jesus told something wrong in Matthew 24, "When this gospel's been preached to all the world, then the end shall be."
No, just might as well admit that we've laid down on the job. We've went forth and organized churches, built seminaries, educated people, had schools, hospitals; that's all fine, nothing against it. But that's not what Jesus said; He said, "Preach the gospel."
And the gospel come not in word only, but through power and manifestation of the Holy Spirit. The Bible said they went forth preaching every word, the Lord working with them, with signs following. In their age, they done exactly what Jesus said.

L-50 What about us in this age? What are we trying to do? Now, notice, the prophet said, "There would be a day come, that it would neither be dark nor light. But it would be a dismal day." But he said, "In the evening time it shall be Light."
Before the week's over if the Lord willing, I have in my heart (I've never tried it.) to preach on a sermon, "When the East and the West Meets."

L-51 So geographically, the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. Civilization has traveled with the sun. The oldest civilizations are the east, the newer is of the west.
Well, we are at the west coast. East and west has met. Now, we'd have two thousand years that's been nothing but a drowsy, dismal day. Now, anyone knows, that no matter how foggy it is, the only light that we have to light the earth is the sun. But there's been so much fog and heavy, that the sun cannot shine through the fog. And that's the kind of a day we've went through. Through the early age, through Luther, Wesley, on down, we've went through that type of age, enough light till we can know that the Bible was true. We accepted Jesus as Saviour. We made a great denominations and organizations and built fine churches and schools. That's fine. But remember, we've fallen short of the first Light that shined in Jerusalem.

L-52 But it's come evening time. That was the Light to the eastern people, and the sun is setting in the west. The day's far spent. And the evening Light has begin to shine, the same Jesus that raised on the scene in the early days, and sent the Holy Spirit upon the first apostles, and is rising today with healing in His wings to His people.
And we're living in the evening Light. Don't become like the Pharisee, or the Sadducee, or the religionists of that day, but walk in the Light while there's Light to walk in.
