<TITLE>02. Par 4-7</TITLE>L-4 Now, how many ministers is in here? Could I see--just see you raise up your hands? That's very fine. Well, greetings to you, my precious friends in Christ.
Now, in talking on... That's the--about the youngest preacher I ever seen. He's one here about two years old, raised up his hand. I--I that--I thought little David Walker is about the smallest one I ever seen, but this has got him beat. Well, that's mighty fine son. I got one at home about like that, that claims he's going to be a preacher, but if he does, he's going to have to reform a lot.
He was real bad the other day. He did something... put both his little sisters on a chair. (You fathers and mothers know what I mean.) I said, "Son, you kept promised me for a long time, you was going to be good. When are you going to be good?"
He said, "When I get to be a preacher."
His mother said, "You'll have to beat that, or you won't be a preacher." They can get right next to your heart in their little witty things that they say.

L-5 Now, tonight, it's chilly outside, to me. I thought I was coming down here to go bare-footed again, but I'd see--I'd get froze if I did that. So, many are standing outside, all around the buildings and so forth. Many--some out in their cars and cars still coming in. So we're just going to kee--not keep you long, just speak to you and try to bring up a faith to you that when--we comes time for the prayer for the sick, that you'd be able to receive. I think that divine healing is something that you must approach reverently, sanely, because it is the work of God. Now, if God can never go against his own laws and rules, He will always work according to His rules.
It's just like if you--I've said this many times: If we--you had a hill over here and a great artesian well, just blowing water up in the air, and you had another hill over here, and it had a crop on it and the crop was burning up for water, now you could stand on this hill and holler to that water, "Come over here. Come over here and water the crop." It'll never do it. Certainly not. It'll never do it. But if you'll work according to the laws of gravitation, you can bring that water right over on the hill and water your crop. But you have to go through a law to do it. And it'll work perfect every time.

L-6 If you were out here in the field tonight, and it dark as it is, and you'd say, "I'm a scientist, and I know that there's enough electricity in this air to light up this field and show me how to get out of here. Oh, great Electricity, I know you're here. Scientific research shows that you're right here in the air. (Separate the cold and hot air to--and bring it together: you got electricity.) And now, just light up the way because I'm lost." You could scream till you got hoarse, and it'd never light up, but if you work according to the laws of electricity, it'll light up the way. See?
Now that's the way it is about God. Divine healing has been misused many times (See?), but there is a way. There is truly Divine healing, but we got to work according to the laws and the commandments of God to get to Divine healing. It's there.

L-7 Sometimes you wonder why some are healed and others are not. Well, it's because one can come by the way of the law, and the other one tries to make a short cut. But God don't have any short cuts; we all come the same way. There's no respect of person with God.
So tonight, I thought I'd just speak to you to kindy get acquainted with you. And I'm new to you and you're new to me, but yet, we're not strangers. We are precious brothers, sisters of the faith that's in Christ Jesus. We are pilgrims here and strangers. We're sojourners together, looking for a city, whose Builder and Maker is God, there where we long to be, and we're journeying together that way.
