<TITLE>25. Par 86-89</TITLE>L-86 When the church closes tonight, may we go home like those who came from Emmaus, after He--You had been dead, and buried, and rose again, walked with them all day, and they didn't recognize You. But when You got them shut in with You alone that evening, You did something just like You did before You were crucified. They knew that You was not dead no longer, that You had risen from the dead. For no man could do those things the way You did them. And they run home, rejoicing, saying, "Did not our hearts burn within us, as He talked to us along the way?"
Grant the same thing to repeat tonight. Lord, come among us. Take our bodies; take this poor body of mine; if You can use it, do so. Father, You cannot use mine without using theirs. So use the sick people's body; use our souls and body tonight to Thy honor and glory, that others might see and be healed. For we ask it in Jesus' Name, the Captain of the Host of the Lord. Amen.

L-87 If there was a possible way for me to perform a healing... If I could cause this lady here to get up off of this cot she's laying on and walk away, I--I--I'd take a quarter and push it with my nose around this city, just to see it done. I'd... What if I'd... What was that... What if it was my--my sister, my mother, my wife laying there? What if this was one--one of my re... What if you out there with cancer or heart trouble, what if it was my mother or my brother, or my son, my daughter? My...
But I wish I could, but I can't. And if Jesus stood here with this suit on that He gave me, neither could He; He's already done it. How many believes that salvation and every redemptive blessing is already purchased? Then what would He do if He was here? He would just act like He did when He was here on earth, do something that you would see that He was the living Jesus.

L-88 Now, how many knows this? That Jesus said that at this end time (We've been preaching on it this week.) that the Spirit of God would come on the earth, called the Holy Ghost, and would do the same works that He did. How many knows that? Show the same sign that He showed, He showed it to the Jews; He showed it to the Samaritans; but He never showed it to the Gentiles. It wasn't their day. Neither were the Gentiles looking for a Messiah. But today we are looking for the second coming of Christ. Now, we must receive the sign of the Messiah, which is the last sign.
And remember--remember He spoke of Noah? But He didn't say then. But it said, "As it was in the days of Sodom." He told what the morals of--of day of Noah: They were eating, drinking, marrying, giving in marriage. But "as the days of Sodom" He left that alone. See? That's revelations.

L-89 Watch the angels (how we've been speaking about) what they done, the ministries... Look at the Billy Graham today, just exactly... A modern Oral Roberts and Billy Graham, those mighty evangelists sweeping the world, calling out of Babylon, out of Sodom, everything they can. Is it getting any better? Worse all the time.
Now, watch the Church elect. You believe in the election? Sure have to if you believe the Bible. "Our names are put in the Lamb's Book of Life before the foundation of the world," says the Bible. See? We was elected by God; by His foreknowledge, He elected us. Now...
Now, and then, if we are called... You ought to be thankful to God that you was elected. That's what I'm so thankful about: that God called me, chose me. I never chose Him; He chose me. You never chose Him. "No man can come to Me except My Father draws him first. And all the Father has given to Me, will come to Me." That's right. So you see, if God calls you, He will knock at your door. That's the time for you to come.
Now, today is the Gentile's day. This is the day the last message... And remember, Sodom was the destruction, when fire fell from heaven.
