<TITLE>19. Par 69-72</TITLE>L-69 And you say, "Sir, I would like to see Jesus." I trust tonight with all my heart that He will make Hisself known among you. Now, how will He do it? The same way He did then, just the same way He did then. He promised it; He said it would be in the last days. We believe this is the last days. The last day's signs are appearing everywhere, the church cooling off, and all of the things going the way they're going. There'd come a falling away, all the things that was spoke of. But in that day, He promised these things would take place, and here it is.
Did you notice, when Jesus was started out in His ministry, how that He begin to, not say so much about His day then. He was telling more about His second coming than He was His first advent to the earth, speaking what this would be in this day.

L-70 Now, if He will come... Now, no matter what kind of a gift He'd have standing here or a gift out there, they have to get together. You have to believe it or nothing will happen. The little woman touched His garment, and she was healed, because she believed it. She had faith.
A woman pushed through the crowd. Perhaps she... Say they had prayer cards then. (They didn't, but say they did.) She couldn't get to Him; she had no way of getting to Him. She didn't have no means of getting to Him.
There'll people out there in the audience tonight that'll have no way of getting up here to be prayed for. We have to take them just as their numbers come. Well, that's what... We'll get everyone if we can, and before... Every man that's got a prayer card, woman, just hold to it; we'll get to you sooner or later. We don't know how it'll be, but the just the way the Spirit will lead it.

L-71 Now, this little woman, what did she do? She said, "If I will just touch His garment--I believe that Man told the truth. I'll... I--I know I'll be healed."
Why, certainly. That's what He promised. All right. Her faith... And then when she touched Him... Oh, everybody was touching Him, my, with their arms around Him, and "Hosanna" and some hollering, and criticizing, and everything. 'Course that's the mixed up crowd again, the multitude. Christ's gatherings always produces the believer, unbeliever, and make believer. Now, when they come...
Then she touched His garment, and she went off in the audience (like you are tonight) and set down maybe. Maybe she stood up, I don't know. However, Jesus turned around and said, "Who touched Me?"
Insomuch, till the apostle Peter rebuked Him, and said, "Why do You say such a thing as that? Everybody's touching You."
He said, "But I perceive that virtue has gone from Me." Virtue is strength; He got weak. She touched Him; He got weak. He looked out over the audience, until He found her and told her about her blood issue. And from that very minute, she believed that she was healed, and she was. Is that right?

L-72 Now, if Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever, do you believe that He is... The New Testament, the book of Hebrews says that He is right now setting at the right hand of God, power on high, and He is a High Priest that can be touched by the feeling of our infirmities. Is that right, brethren? Now, if you're setting out there and not on the prayer line here, if you believe with all your heart, and you're sick, say, "Lord God, I'm sick too. I need help. Will You help me, O Lord?" See what He does. Certainly.
If you'll believe Him with all your heart, He's the High Priest. Wouldn't do no good to touch me; I'm just a sinner saved by grace. Wouldn't do no good to touch any of the rest of us. We're just sinners saved by grace.
