<TITLE>15. Par 55-58</TITLE>L-55 She seen this Jew. And they had a segregation in those days, just like there used to be in the north and south between the--the white and the colored people. But...
Then she said, "It's not customary for you Jews to ask a Samaritan woman such a thing as that." Said, "We have no... We have no dealings with one another."
Listen at the Voice come back. "Woman, if you knew Who it was that speaks with you, you'd ask Me for a drink. I'd give you water you don't come here to draw."
And she said, "The well's deep, and You have nothing to draw with."

L-56 The conversation went on about worshipping in this mountain and at Jerusalem and so forth. After while, Jesus standing there... He had need to go by; the Father sent Him there. And then He didn't know what would happen, what we'd be doing. He was trying to find what the woman's trouble was. When He found her trouble... How many knows what it was? Sure, she was living in sin. And He, what did He say? "Go get your husband and come here."
She said, "I have no husband."
He said, "Thou has said well, for you have had five husbands. And therefore, the one you're living with now is not your husband."
Now, did she say, "That man is Beelzebub"? No, sir. Did she say, "He's... He must be a... something wrong with Him. He must have a--a horrible case of mental telepathy"? No, sir. She knowed more about God than half the ministry does today. That's right.

L-57 She said, "Sir, I perceive that You are a prophet." Amen. "I perceive that You are a prophet. We Samaritans, we know that when the Messiah cometh, He will tell us these things. But Who are You?"
He said, "I'm He that speaks to you." Too bad that we don't know the same thing, isn't it? That's right.
She said, "We know--we Samaritans know--that when that Messiah cometh, He will be a God prophet. He will tell us these things." She was taught. Yet in her sins, she knowed what to look for when she seen it. And she said, "Sir, I perceive that You are a prophet. And I know that when the Messiah cometh, He will tell us these things."
He said, "I'm He that speaks to you."
And she dropped her water pot and ran into the city. Listen at her: "Come, see a Man that told me the things that I've done. Isn't this the very Messiah?" And the Bible said that the men of that city believed on Him because of the saying of the woman. Oh, my.

L-58 That was Jesus yesterday. That was the way Jesus made Himself known. He never one time represented Hisself amongst the Gentiles like that. Why? The Gentiles wasn't looking for Him. The Gentiles... We had a club on our shoulder, serving idols in them days. But the Jews was looking for a Messiah, and the Samaritans was looking for a Messiah. But we've had two thousand years of church world, and we're looking for a Messiah in the last days. Did you know He promised He'd do the same thing? We'll get to it later in the week. I'll give you one right now.
Jesus said over in there (just before we close)... Jesus said over in the Scriptures, when He's telling about the coming of the Lord, His second coming. The sea roared, waves and every so four things taking place, mighty signs to be taking place. He said, "As it was in the days of Sodom, so shall it be in the coming of the Son of Man."
