<TITLE>02. Par 5-7</TITLE>L-5 I believe this: that God is infinite, and when... And we are finite. And when God is called on the scene to act, and the way God acts when He's called on the scene, He must forever act the same way, if He's called under the same circumstances again. Like this: If God ever was called on the scene to save a sinner, and the attitude that God taken towards that sinner, He will have to take the same attitude towards the next sinner and every sinner that ever comes before Him. If anyone comes sick, and He healed them, He must take the same attitude forever. Because we, being finite, we can make a mistake, say, "Oh, I was mistake." But God is infinite, and His Words are perfect. And the way He acted first, if He don't act the next time and every time after the way He acted first, then He acted wrong in the first place. He was wrong to forgive the first sin if He won't forgive every sin. He was wrong when He healed the first person if He will--if He won't heal every person that comes to Him.
God just requires for you to come His provided way. And His way is Calvary, through His Son, Jesus Christ. Now, it isn't how much we can sing, how well we can preach, how much we can shout; it's coming God's provided way.

L-6 If you had a artesian well on one hill blowing out water, on the other hill you had a crop burning up. Now, you could stand on the hill where the crop is and holler, "Great well, spring your water over to me and water my crop so I can have food." You could holler until you could holler no more, it wouldn't act. But if you'll work according to the laws of gravitation, you can bring that water right around to your crop.
There's enough electricity in--in any room to light it up. But you can't holler, "Great electricity, I'm conscious you're here. Light up this room." No. You've got to work according to the laws of electricity, and then it'll light up the room.
And the same way it is; we are conscious that God is here. And God doesn't heal the people just by going to church or making confession; He heals you up on your faith in His finished work. That's the only basis that He can heal you. And if you'll believe that... It's not the touch of a minister's hands; it's not the anointing of the oil; it's not the prayer that he prays so much, as it is your faith to accept the finished work that Christ did for you. That's God's law. Then if you can believe that, all things are possible to them that believe.

L-7 And now, if you desire a prayer cloth, just write me at Jeffersonville, Indiana, and I'll get it. Now, I'm not trying to get your address, because I do not have any programs to support. Never did let my meetings get to that place where I'd have to have thousands of dollars. I don't have to have anything. Only thing I need is just more of God.
And then, my expenses... Talking with Brother Roberts not long ago, I think his expenses runs around ten thousand dollars a day. Billy Graham's, I think, was running twenty-eight thousand a... for a few minutes in his broadcast and television, and so forth, all around the world. What would I do if I had to make--take money like that. I been preaching thirty years. I've never took one offering in my life. I don't let my meetings get in that condition. I just keep them humble where I can go to a little bitty church four, or five, or wherever the Lord will call.
I'm only wanting to help you. If you want a prayer cloth that I prayed over, just send to Jeffersonville, and I'll send it back to you free of charge. It's nothing. I might say this: The rain won't fall too hard, and the night get too dark, but what I'll be glad to offer prayer for you any time I can, or do something to help you. The Lord bless you, my prayer.
