<TITLE>04. Par 12-15</TITLE>L-12 Now, we want to notice, these Greeks who came up to the worship, they had an enthusiasm that they wanted to see Jesus. And I believe that that is the desire of every heart of every person that ever heard His Name, they want to see Who that is. I know it's the desire of my heart. And I'm sure it's the desire of every heart that's here. "Sirs, we would see Jesus."
And he was taken--these Greeks was taken to Jesus by a minister, by the name of Philip. He went and got Andrew, and they taken them to Jesus. Now, if their desire was to see Him and got to see Him. And our desire is to see Him, and the Bible said that He remains the same yesterday, today, and forever, then why can't we see Him?

L-13 Now, in my city there was a little boy some time ago, he got all enthused in his Sunday school, and when he went home he said to his mommy, "Mommy, can anyone see this great God that they're telling us about?"
She said, "Ask your Sunday school teacher."
And as he asked the teacher, he would, rather, ask the lady teacher, and she said, "Ask the pastor."
And they asked the pastor, and the pastor said, "No, son, no one can see God and live."
Well, the little fellow, that did not satisfy his enthusiasm. So he used to fish up on the river with an old fisherman down there by the name of Wiseheart, used to be a deacon in our church. And then, one day coming down on the river, there come a storm. Been a dusty summer, and the water had dust all the leaves off, and the sun was setting in the west, as the old fisherman, and the little boy made their way down after running the net. And there was a rainbow came out. And as the old fisherman watched that rainbow, the little fellow noticed the tears begin to run down his bearded cheeks.

L-14 And the crystal tears dropping off of his white beard, kindly stirred the emotions of the little boy. So he ran from the stern of the boat up into the middle and fell down upon the lap of the old fisherman and said, "Sir, I'm going to ask you something that seemingly no one can answer me."
And he said, "What is it, my lad?"
He said, "God is so great, the God that made that rainbow." Said, "Can anyone see God?"
And the old fisherman overcome by the child's enthusiasm, put him in his arms, and he said, "God bless your little heart, honey, all I seen for forty years has been God." And the way to see God is to get God in the inside, then you can see right. Then you know Him, and you can understand, He will reveal Himself."

L-15 Jesus said, "A little while and the world sees Me no more, yet ye shall see Me, for I will be with you, even in you, to the end of the world." Anyone who reads the Scriptures knows that's true. Then Jesus promise by His own Word, that there would be people that would see Him until He came again at the end of the world. "A little while, and the world will see Me no more; yet ye shall see Me for I (a personal pronoun) will be with you, even in you, to the end of the world." Did I read that Scripture right? Or was He just teasing the disciples? If He was teasing, and joshing, and carrying on, then He wasn't the Son of God. That's either the truth, or it is not the truth.
And now, you say, "Well, Brother Branham, I believe that God lives in the flowers." So do I. But these Greeks wanted to see Jesus, they wanted to see Him. Now, He said, in the Scriptures, in the Writings, "that the works that I do, shall you do also." Now, to really justify this statement then, we would have to go back in the Scriptures and get what Jesus was yesterday, and see in here what He will be today.
