<TITLE>19. Par 86-90</TITLE>L-86 How did He make Hisself known to the Samaritans? Now, there's only three nationalities of people; that's Jew, Gentile, and Samaritans: Ham, Shem, and Japheth's people. And we know that. We come from the sons of Noah.
Now, notice. Then when He made Hisself known to the Samaritans, He sent the disciples away. And He was setting on this stone, because the Father had told Him to go up there. He had need to go by Samaria. Instead of going straight down to Jericho, He went around the mountain to Samaria.
And He set there, and a woman come out. We believe her to be a prostitute. She had six husbands. And when she come out, she went to let the kettle down to get the water, and when she did, Jesus said, "Woman, bring Me a drink."
And she said, "We got segregation. It's not customary for Jews to have any dealing with Samaritans. We have a law of segregation here."
And He said, "But if you knew Who you were talking to, you'd ask Me for a drink."

L-87 What did He do? He went to talking to her about worship in the mountain at Jerusalem. He carried the conversation with the woman till He caught her spirit. He said, "Go, get your husband and come here."
She said, "I don't have any husband." Watch, not a Jew, a Samaritan, and she said, "I don't have any husband."
He said, "You said right. You've got five, and the one you're living with now is not yours."
Now, watch what she say. Did she say, "He's a fortuneteller?" She said, "Sir, I perceive that You're a prophet. And we know (what?), we know (Samaritans) that when the Messiah cometh, He will tell us these things, but Who are You?"
He said, "I'm He that speaks to you."
And she run into the city and said, "Come, see a Man that told me the things I've done. Isn't this the Messiah?"
Now, watch. He forbid... He never did that miracle one time to a Gentile. And He told His disciples not to go in the way of the Gentiles. How many knows that? And it's never been done from that day to this. But this is the end of the Gentiles.

L-88 And the way God acts on the first occasion, if the circumstances arise, and that same thing arise again, God's got to act the same way He did there, or He acted wrong. If He ever healed a sick man because he was sick, He's got to act the same way when He's called on the scene, or He did wrong when He healed that man. He's a respect of persons.
If that's the way He manifested Hisself to the Jew, the true Jew believed it, the other one didn't believe it, that's the way He manifested Hisself to the Samaritans, He's got to do the same thing to the Gentile, if He's the same yesterday, today, and forever. He's promised He would do it.

L-89 Run back through the--your scholars; go back through your history and find if it's ever been done from that day to this. This is the day. This is the last trip to America. After mercy has been spurned, judgment's left.
Now, friends, remember this. Don't you forget it. Read your Scriptures. A woman touched His garment, for she said in her heart, "If I can touch Him, I'll be made well." Jesus was passing by, and everybody hugging Him, or shaking hands, or whatever it was, and that woman touched His garment. She didn't feel physically, because the Palestinian garment's loose.
And she just touched the border of His garment, and went back, and set down, or stood up or whatever; she got away from Him. Jesus turned and said, "Who touched Me?"
And the woman said, "Not me."
All of them said, "Not me."
But Jesus said, "I got weak; virtue went out of Me."
Peter said, "Well, the whole group's a touching You."
Said, "But I'm weak." Then He looked around until He found the woman. And He said, "Thy faith has healed thee."

L-90 Now, that was Jesus yesterday. And the Bible said that He's a High Priest right now, that can be touched by the feeling of our infirmity. Is that right? Did He say this before He left? "The works that I do, shall you also." Did He say that? How many knows that, say, "Amen."
