<TITLE>06. Par 18-20</TITLE>L-18 Now, don't you never think because you can argue with the Methodist or Baptist, about their religion, or the Pentecostals, or Nazarenes, but you never hit that foreign field yonder. They know more about what they're talking about. Don't...
You don't think a witch doctor will challenge you? Just try it once. You'd better know what you're talking about too. They can do so many tricks and wonders, it'll make your head swim.
And this man said, "Well now, wait just a moment." Said, "Your prophet is dead and in the grave, but our Jesus has raised from the dead."
He said, "Mr. Reedhead, that's what you believe." He said, "But we don't believe it." He said, "We believe that your Jesus is just as dead as our prophet."
And he said, "But we have the evidence of His resurrection," Mr. Reedhead said.
He said, "Well, what is your evidence?"
He says, "He lives!"
Said, "Where's He at?"
He said, "In my heart."
And the Mohammedan said, "And Mohammed is in my heart, just as much as Jesus is in yours."
He said, "But you see, sir," said, "We have happiness and joy, by knowing it."
He said, "Now, just a moment, Mr. Reedhead. Mohammedan religion can produce just as much psychology as Christianity can."
Brother Reedhead said, "He knew that he hadn't met no overnight man. He knew what he was talking about."
He said, "And besides that, Mr. Reedhead, our Mohammed never promised one thing, but life after death. Your Jesus promised that your teachers would do the same signs that He did, and promised that if He resurrected from the dead, He'd be with you, living with you, doing the same things He did." Said, "We're waiting to see that happen. We'll believe He raised from the dead then."

L-19 They know more about it than ninety percent of the Christians in America does. See? When you go... That's why I took this afternoon for this. When you going to talk facts; it's not jumping up-and-down and running. Why, I've seen Mohammedans, at the feast of the prophets, take a lance and run it through their chin up through their nose, screaming, "Allah, Allah, Allah," and pull it back out, and not even drain a--not a drop of blood fall from it. I've seen them set on the floor, and swing back and forth, screaming, "Allah, Allah, Allah," and get up, and take splinters, and run them under their fingers, and pull them back out, and never even frown.
I've seen one in Switzerland, Zurich, Switzerland, get such a frantic worked up, until he took a sword, and put here, and run it through and come out the back. A doctor doubted it; he had challenged him to come to the platform; said, "The sword was hollow." Poured water in this end, it poured out the back of him. Pulled it out, laughed and walked away. Where it's at, your blood is in such a condition... such as psychology...

L-20 But he said, "Your Jesus said, 'He that believeth on Me, the works that I do, shall he also.'"
And Mr. Reedhead said, "You've probably been reading Mark 16?"
He said, "That's one place."
He said, "Well, Mark 16 is not all inspired."
He said, "What kind of a book are you reading?" Said, "All the Koran's inspired. And it makes me sick," he said, "to hear you people, call yourselves Christian, saying, 'This word means this, and that means this and... ' You don't even know what you do believe." Was he right or wrong? Sure he was. Said, "You don't... You take part of it; you just make it fit your own doctrine." A heathen, saying to a Christian. And he said, "When you, Christians get to a place, that we see Christ living in you, then we'll believe He raised from the dead."
Mr. Reedhead said, "I kicked the dust and changed the subject." What was it? A defeated Christian.
