<TITLE>10. Par 36-40</TITLE>L-36  Thy emblem of suff'ring and shame,
 And I love that old cross where the Dearest and Best,
 For a world of lost sinners was slain.
 So I will cherish the old rugged cross,
 Till my trophies at last I lay down;
 I will cling to the old rugged cross,
 And exchange it someday for a crown.
 To that old rugged cross I will ever be true,
 Its shame and reproach gladly bear;
 Then He will call me someday (Bless God) to my home far away,
 Where His glory forever I'll...
Do you mean it? Raise up your hand while you're singing it.
 So I'll cherish the old rugged cross,
 Till my trophies at last I lay down;
 I will cling to the old rugged cross,
 And exchange it someday for a crown.
Oh, how I love Him. Oh, just your souls to bathe in His goodness. The Angel of the Lord is here.
 At last...
 I will cling to the old rugged cross,
(Regardless of anything else.)
 And exchange it some...?...

L-37 Have you ever thought how great that is? What could you give in exchange in this day of confusion, this day when people don't know what to do, which a way to go. The Bible said these days would come, and that there would be a famine in the land, not for bread and water, but for hearing the true Word of God. And the people would go from the east to the west, from the north to the south, seeking to hear the true Word of God. And here we are privileged tonight to see the message of God, the Angel of God.
There's no prayer cards give out. Is any prayer cards in the meeting? No. No one's got a prayer card. But the Angel of the Lord is here. If God sends His...?... sends His Message to confirm that. You believe it?

L-38 Now all that's in here that does not know me, or you know I don't know you, and you are sick and needy, raise up your hands. All that knows I know nothing you have need of, just raise your hands. If you need God, just raise your hands. [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]
The Jewish brother... Or I believe if that's right, from over in Michigan. You originally came from overseas in Siberia, somewhere. [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.] Czechoslovakia. I know him. That's about all that I see that I know.
But if God still is God, if God sends His messenger yet with an Angel, the Angel will testify that it's the truth. Let it be known tonight that God is still God. And I do not speak of myself, but I speak of Him. And if you be the Bride, the Rebekah...

L-39 The Bible said that He's the High Priest that can be touched by the feeling of our infirmities. And when He was touched in the days of His flesh, He could turn and tell the woman what her troubles was. And He's the same yesterday, today, and forever.
The Bible has good gifts the Father sends to His children. Now, you... Don't notice the messenger, but believe the message, and God will unload to you tonight His promises. For they're just as good for you that raised your hand for salvation, as they're just as good for you that's raised your hand for sickness. Just the same God, same gifts that He's always had, working the same way.

L-40 Now pray. Believe. Let the Lord God do the deciding, then establish your faith upon God's eternal Word. Make your decision tonight to serve Him. May the Lord God show at least three people in this building... Which, three is a confirmation (Is that enough?) that He sent His Angel, and I am not speaking these things of myself; It's Him. In this day when you're undecided, may you decide for Him.
Here. There's a little woman setting over here with her handkerchief; she never took it out of her hand, and kept her hand up. Am I a stranger to you, young lady, setting there praying? You believe that God can tell me what your trouble is? You're facing an operation. That's right, isn't it. If that's right, raise up your hand. I do not know you. If that's right, raise up your--lay your hand like this. But that's the truth, isn't it?
What do you think? Have you made your decision? All right. Stay with it then.
