<TITLE>12. Par 39-42</TITLE>L-39 What healed me? The Blood of Jesus. What saved me? The Blood of Jesus. That's all my hope and theme; that's all my cry. That's all my plea: nothing but the Blood of Jesus.
Now, that's God's application. It makes you a different person. You're borned anew. Now, when God got ready to try His toxin, His Balm. Balm is the... He said, "Is there no balm in Gilead? Is there no physician there? Then why, why is the daughter of my people not recovered from her sickness? Why is she still in this condition? Is there no balm? Is there no physician? No one to help her? No one to tell her the truth? No one to give her the right medicine? Why is she sick like this?"

L-40 I wonder what God's going to say at the day of the judgment, if we keep separating ourselves from one another? What's the matter with the Balm? What's the matter with the power of God? with Jesus Christ, Who said, "This will all men know you're My disciples, when you have love one for the other."
What are we going to do with that? Is there no balm here? Is--there--is there--wha--what's the matter with us? Why are we--why's the church still sick? Not because there's not enough Balm to draw us together. It's not because there isn't a Physician, the Holy Spirit. But what it is, is because that we willfully reject It. That's the reason.

L-41 Now notice again, when that balm was... Balm, I'll call it toxin. When that Toxin was tested, God never give it to a guinea pig, He gave it to His Son, to Jesus Christ, at the bank of the Jordan. Down through life, it held, and a few minutes--a few days after God gave the toxin in His own Son in His own flesh. God made flesh and dwelled among us. Some people call Him Jesus, just a philosopher, just an ordinary man, just a prophet. He was more than a philosopher; He was more than a prophet; He was more than a man; He was God manifested in flesh, virgin born. The Holy Spirit, the Spirit overshadowed Mary brought forth a tabernacle, a man's body which was the Son of God, that God dwelt in reconciling the world to Himself. He looked like God; He act like God; He spoke like God; He healed like God; He was God made manifest in the flesh. He was more than a man. He was God manifested in the flesh.

L-42 And that death tried to anchor it's stinger low in that old flesh there, He found out then that there was something different from anyone else he'd ever stung. He could sting a prophet, and he'd die. He'd stung a prophet, and then he'd sting another one, but when he stung that Son of God there, it anchored that stinger and pulled it out of him. Today, death doesn't have any sting, because the flesh of God caught the stinger and pulled it out of him. The devil didn't know that was him. He--all the time he said, "If You're the Son of God, do this. If You're the Son of God, do this."
Put a rag around His face and He seen them visions and so forth. The devil had his agent put a rag around His face like that, and hit Him on the head, and said, "Now, if You are the Son of God tell us who hit You."
See? Jesus kept that to Himself. But He wanted that devil to anchor that stinger and then He'd take the stinger out of him. Oh, but when he stung Him there at Calvary, he hasn't got any stinger no more. He can buzz, and hum, and make a lot of noise, but his stinger's yonder. Hallelujah. It's anchored in Calvary.
No wonder Paul can say, "Oh death, where is your sting? Grave where is your victory? But thanks be to God, Who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ." Oh, my.
