<TITLE>18. Par -</TITLE>L-26-2 Reverently, Lord, upon the basis of Thy Word and Thy Holy Spirit, we are so glad that we know where our birth comes from. We are glad that we were born, not of the will of man, nor of the will of flesh, but of the will of God. And we pray today, Father, that these who are now asking for pardoning grace, that Your Spirit will do that work, Lord. There's no way for me to do it. I'm just a man, another son of Kish. But we need You, the Holy Spirit. God, let me be as Samuel, one who tells the truth of the Word. And you have vindicated It so far, and I believe that You will continue as long as I stay true to You.
May they all now receive Eternal Life, Father. May this day never depart from them. In the hour when they come to leave this world, may this, what I have just said to them, open to a reality. And as we set here mortal today, looking at our watch, thinking of our dinner, of work tomorrow, of the cares and toils of life, they'll not be then. They'd all fade away. There will be no cares: one great joy of eternity. Give them that type of Life, Father, everyone. And may... I ask you this, Father, that every person that's here this morning, that's heard me say this vision, may I meet every one of them on the other side. Though there may be men here that would disagree with me, and women too, but Father, never let that stand in our way. May we meet them over there when they run too, and we grab each other, screaming, "Our precious brother." Let it be like it was shown there, Lord, to everyone. All that I loved and all that loved me. I pray that it'll be that way, Lord. And I love them all. Let them appear, Father. I offer them Eternal Life now. May they do their part to accept it. For I ask it in Jesus' Name. Amen

L-27-1 We have just a few moments to pray for the sick. I see we got a little sick girl here and a lady in the chair. Now, to my most precious brethren, sisters, please do not misunderstand me. I--I don't know what happened. I don't know what happened. But God, when I die, let me go back there...?... Just let me go to that place, is where I want to be, wherever it was. I'm not trying to be a Paul that was caught up in the third heavens. I'm not saying that. I believe that He was just trying to encourage me, trying to give me a little something to push me on in my new ministry coming up.

L-27-2 Would it seem irreverent if I read something here just a minute? Would it be all right? One of the nations leading magazines... Billy Graham: "Dr. Billy Graham Invited To The Islams." On the front page of the "Afrikaans Times," February 15, 1960. The writer of the article, who was a Moslem (Mohammedan) thinks that miracles should follow the preaching of the Gospel of Christ, the same, yesterday, today, and forever. We quote:
It is this Christ promised His followers when He said, "He that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he do also; even greater than these shall he do." Has the church ever done the works that... the--the attributes of Christ in the Bible; can it today? Can any of the church distinguished...?... perform even half the miracles performed by Christ? Not to say greater works. Can you as an individual renown, advocate of the Christian rise to the--raise the dead to physical life? Can you walk on the seas? Can you heal the sick and give sight to the blind? Is not this according to the above-mentioned error set forth of the Mohammedan? Or set... Or the test by Christ which follows as the statements of somewhere in your belief?
