<TITLE>02. Par 4-6</TITLE>L-4 I'm happy tonight to be here. Now, a few weeks ago I was setting in a beautiful restaurant, or not a restaurant, it was the Marine Gardens in Chicago, having breakfast. And I had the privilege of setting by your honorable pastor. And they introduced me to him, and which I'd seen him before, and we got to talking.
And he gave me an invitation to come over with... Saying that Brother Moore, my private secretary, had told him that someday if he would come down to his place, we'd come up here. So Brother Moore never fulfilled his agreement with Brother Summerall.
I said, "Well, I owe you a visit then." And I said, "It's been so--so many places; it's booked so heavy to... Would just about three nights be all right?"
And he said, "Anything would be all right." So here we are.
And I--I want to say one thing that... Not because he's setting here, but I'm certainly happy to be here, and can understand why a spirit like this would exist in a place. I have spoke about him to where I was going with many people.
But I want to say this to your pastor. Rather give him a little rosebud now, than a wreath when he's gone. I have got my first person to hear say one thing against Brother Summerall. That the honesty and such a wonderful man, I know he's a...?... 'cause I heard that morning. The people all gathering tomorrow afternoon, my folks around here to hear him speak in these afternoon meetings. I'm sure you'll enjoy being here and hearing him.

L-5 And now, we are here to try to put in our little ministry with your ministry together to bring glory to God. And now, I... The Lord has called me years ago to pray for His sick children. And that I reverently try to do.
And I do not claim to be a healer now. If anyone can hear that, I'm not a healer. I don't claim to heal people. I, frankly, I don't believe there's anyone can heal people, because that's God's job, and He's already did that. See? By His stripes we were healed when His Son, at Calvary, was wounded for our transgressions; and with His stripes we were healed, a past tense.
And so many times people speak of Divine healing. There is no healing but Divine healing. That's the only healing there is, no other healing, but Divine healing. Never did medicine ever cure any case. Never did an operation ever cure. See?
Operation is an aid, and medicine is an aid, which we think they're fine. We thank God for every aid that we have, but God's the Healer. See? Psalms 103:3 said, "I'm the Lord Who heals all thy diseases."

L-6 So we know, we have to agree with the Word. If the Word's out in one place, then it's out everywhere. It's perfectly in harmony all the way through. I just believe the Word. That--that's... God... That's God's program. I do not want anything more than the Bible teaches, but I want all that it does teach. I want--I want it all. So it's God's Word. It must come...
Now, I know that God can do things that's not written in His Word. He's God. He can do anything He desires to do. But as long as I know it's coming out of the Word, it just gives me a good assurance that everything's all right. I--I like that real well.
Now, we're asking the Lord tonight to bless us. And now, just one more word on Divine healing. Now, I never come to take the place of your doctor. See? No. I come to do this: I come to pray for God's child, the doctor's patient, my brother and sister. That's--that's what I come for. See?
And now, in this you see so much when you speak of bodily healing, that there's... The motives and the objectives of people seem to be so confused and wrong many times.
