<TITLE>03. Par 8-10</TITLE>L-8 The natural will never will able to interpret the supernatural; neither could the magicians and the astrologers ever read the handwriting on the wall. It took the Spirit-filled man to do so. Those astrologers could not read unknown tongues. They had not the gift of interpretation to know the supernatural. Therefore, they didn't know what it was all about.
That's what the world is today. They've dilly-dallied along in the things of rock-and-roll parties, and big shindigs in their churches, and cold formal sermons on the flowers, and so forth, and the Gospel has been neglected. And they know nothing about the supernatural.
You can speak to them on this, altogether, message that should be taught everywhere of the coming of the Lord, and they laugh at it, and it's the most needed message in the land. But the spiritual people, the borned again, knows that something's fixing to happen, and they're happy about it. Because it's the coming of the Lord Jesus the second time for His Church. But the unsaved, they don't know what it's all about. It seems to be a supernatural move.

L-9 I had the privilege just the last couple years of having one of the greatest meetings the Lord ever let me have in Bombay, India. And just before getting there, I'd studied much of their nation, found out that the Medes-o-Persians that took Babylon from Belteshazzar, their tribe settled up there, and it's called the Hindus today. And then I was reading in their paper, and I had the clipping of it yet today, something that was startling. When I read something that seems to have a spiritual significance, I like to keep it; for God never moves unless it means something.
And I was reading that where they said in their paper, they'd just had a great earthquake that shook a great part of their country; you read that in your own American papers about two years ago. And it was said, for about two or three days before this earthquake struck, a great strange thing took place, that all the sheep and the cattle that used to hang around the walls...

L-10 In India, instead of having fences, they have walls. And their barns are made of stone, many of them. And where the cattle would stand around in the shade of the wall, all the cattle and the sheep took off to the middle of the field. And the little birds that had their nest up in the coves of the barns, flew away, out into the forest before the earthquake happened, because the walls would fall on them. There was no one to drive them out. There was no literal sign to show that there was an earthquake coming. But being that God takes care of His own, they had a feeling. They was impressed by the Holy Spirit to get out away from the trouble.
And it seems to me that men who are made in the image of God, feeling this great pressure coming on, should go to safety. But they don't do it. They won't listen. Though the warning voice of God speaks day after day, night after night, but men desires to live in sin.
You know, it's later than we think. People thinks they got plenty of time, but the Scriptures declares it's later than we think. Jesus said, "As it was in the days of Noah, and the days of Lot, so shall it be in the coming of the Son of man."
