<TITLE>13. Par 45-48</TITLE>L-45 Notice. It'll make you feel good to know that when this earthly tabernacle be dissolved, old and wrinkled, and broke down, we've got a young one waiting. Amen. I can see Abraham, that hump in his back, long whiskers hanging down, you know, and long hair. One morning he woke up, and he said... Sarah said, "Say, Abraham, your shoulders are straightening up. Your hair is getting black again."
"Why, he said, "Sarah, them beautiful eyes that faded out many years ago, are turning brown again." Amen. Jehovah-jireh was on the job.

L-46 And this king, looking for a sweetheart, couldn't... All those beautiful women, but when he found that little old grandma, a hundred years old, he said, "That's her. That's the one I've waited for."
Now, that would be ridiculous. Sure it would. What's in it? Read between the lines. God had turned them back to a young man and a young woman, so she could have this baby.
After while when the little Isaac was born, sweet little boy, then I want you to notice. Not only that, but even after Sarah had died, he married Keturah, and after that he had seven sons, besides the daughters.

L-47 [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]...?... the skies will break and the old will be young there forever. Oh, for His coming. Who is that One? The One that met Abraham out there and give him the promise.
Now, my, this could go a long time. I'm just getting warmed up, so I feel like I could preach now.
Think of it. Oh, it's enough to excite you. It's not only an excitement; it's a positive truth by God's eternal Word. That's correct. What He did for Abraham and Sarah there, He does for every one of their children by a sworn promise under those dead sacrifice that He'd do it. Oh, we have nothing to worry about. We're on our road to the promised land. When your foot touches that land, you spring back to youth again, and a young people. Oh, what a beautiful promise. We rest upon that. How wonderful.

L-48 Then when the little boy's about fifteen years old... We'll hurry. When the little boy's about fifteen years old, little curly hair, and little baby brown eyes, how that mama loved that little fellow. But you know, God said, "There's going to be some people over about Edmonton, Alberta, sometime that's going to be in a healing service, and I want to show them people that I keep My promise. And I've got their father, Abraham, here, and I'm going to prove it by him that I keep My promise. Now, I give him the name of Abraham, and told him he was the father of nations. And I'll give him a little boy, and he's about a hundred and fifteen, twenty years old now."
And I say unto you, that God told Abraham to take that little boy up and destroy him, kill him. Why, he was killing the every hope of ever being a father of nations, his only son. And he was over a hundred years old, and had waited a hundred years to get the son. "Take him up and kill him."
Well now, Abraham didn't want to tell Sarah, 'cause you know, the women just don't understand sometimes like that. So he... Especially the mama. So he said, "In the morning, we're going up to worship." So he saddled up some mules, and took some servants, and put some wood on the mules, and he went three day's journey.
