<TITLE>08. Par 27-29</TITLE>L-27 Notice, there was one day (And now closing), He went, coming from Galilee, he had need to go by Samaria. And while He was weary and tired, he set down at the well while His disciples went into the city to buy some vittles.
We find that the Orients, they--the well was just outside the city, usually. And while He was setting there, weary in His journey, there came a young woman coming out of the city. Let us think that she was a--an attractive woman. And she let down her pot from off of her head. And they have two large handles and it's very amazing to watch how the women over there can pack water: can set a pot on top of their head, and one on each hip, and carry a conversation, and never spill the water.
But she let this pot down to get the water, and she noticed, setting back in the corner, a middle aged Man which was a Jew. And there was a great law of segregation in the land. And she heard this Jew say to her, "Woman, bring me a drink."
Now, we'll see what He man--how He manifest Hisself before the Samaritans. You know there's only three nationalities of people in the world. They come from Noah's three sons, Ham, Shem, and Japheth: the Jew, the Samaritan, the Gentile.

L-28 Now, we'll see how He man--how He manifests Hisself to the Samaritans. We see how He did it to the Jew. Let's watch the Samaritan. "Woman bring Me a drink."
And she said, "It's not customary for a Jew to ask a Samaritan such. We don't have any dealings with each other. And this is very unusual. We just don't have this, and we don't have any dealings with each other."
He said, "Woman, if you knew Who you were talking to, you would ask Me for a drink." And He was contacting her spirit. And in a little while, after the conversation went at length, He said, "Go get your husband and come here."
She said, "I don't have any husband."
He said, "You have said well. You've had five husbands and the one that you're now have, is not your husband; so you said well."
Now, let's see what she says. What if she would have lived in New York, Philadelphia, or had been the members of some our great churches? "My pastor said this is psychology, or it's telepathy." What did she say? (You know the reason the people'd say that? They're not trained in the Word.)

L-29 But this woman, though we want to believe her to be a prostitute, she'd put some preachers today, to shame on the Word. That's right. She said, "Sir, I perceive that You are a prophet. Now, we know when the Messiah cometh, He will tell us these things. He will tell us all things when He comes. You must be His prophet." And she said, "When the Messiah, which is called Christ, when He comes, He will tell us these things."
And He said, "I am He that speaks to you."
And she left her water pot, and into the city she went with a heart full of revelation. She said to the men in the city, "Come, see a Man Who told me the things that's in my life. Isn't this the Messiah?"
When the gift of God was dazzled before that prostitute's eyes, she recognized It. But we are so dead and numb with our theologies, until we're blinded from the truth, many times, and can't see the gift of God, the Lord Jesus. "Oh, come, see a Man that has told me what I am. Isn't this the Messiah?" Sure it is.
