<TITLE>09. Par 26-27</TITLE>L-26 That's what He did there. He was standing there; He eat the flesh of a calf, drank the milk from the cow, eat bread. Then the two preachers, the Angels, modern Billy Graham, Oral Roberts. Preachers... They had a message for the world. So they looked toward Sodom. They went down there, not much miracles done, but they blinded the people. Preaching the Gospel does blind the people. That's what the Bible says.
Let's look at this one that was sent to the church called out, the elect, Abraham's church. He said to Abraham... Now remember, He was a Stranger, "Abraham, where is your wife, Sarah?" How did He know he had a wife? How'd He know her name was Sarah?
Now, watch what the Scripture says. The Scripture said, "She is in the tent behind You."
And He said, "I will not keep a secret from Abraham. I'm going to visit you according to time of life."
And Sarah, she smiled in herself, say, "Me being old, and--and my lord, Abraham, being old too, have pleasures together again?"
Now, the Angel, this Man was in flesh, He said, "Why did Sarah laugh? Why did she laugh?"
Jesus said, "As it was in the days of Noah--in days of Sodom, so shall it be at the coming of the Son of man." The Gospel will be preached to the intellects, with a modern Billy Graham and so forth. But the Church spiritual, will receive a Messenger, the Angel of the Lord, and will do the same things as it was before Sodom. Why? The world's to burn this time. Sodom burned. When He referred to Noah, did--did you notice what He said? "As it was there, eating, drinking, marrying..." The--the morals of the world... But here was the spiritual sign to the world. Watch when Jesus came, how did He make Hisself known to be Messiah? He could discern the thoughts of their hearts. Now, men and brethren, isn't that true? Isn't that the Scripture?

L-27 How did... When He told Peter, Simon, "Your name is Simon, and your father is Jonas."... They were looking for the--the Scriptures to be fulfilled. That in... When the Messiah come, He'd be a God Prophet. Now, the Jews had got away from that spiritual part, like too many of us has done today. They were looking for a great one to come, go riding down out of the heavens, rule all the world, and they failed to see it.
Nathanael was seen under the tree, fifteen miles away, by Jesus. When they called Jesus, Beelzebub, they never said it with their lips. The--the Bible said, "He perceived their thoughts." Knew... Knowing their thoughts... He told the woman at the well, "Go get your husband. Come here."
Said, "I have none."
Said, "You've had five."
Now, she didn't call Him a devil. She said, "Sir, we, the Samaritans, we know..." See, where... "We know that when the Messiah cometh, He will do these things." See? She was trained right. "So You must be His Prophet."
He said, "I am He."
Watch her message to the city. "Come, see a Man that told me the things that I done. Isn't this the sign of the prophet, isn't this the sign of the Messiah? Isn't this the very Messiah?" You understand?
Jesus said... [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]... "will know Me no more--will see Me no more. But ye shall see Me, for I ('I' is a personal pronoun), I'll be with you, even in you, to the end of the world."
The Bible said, "He's the same yesterday, today, and forever."
