<TITLE>18. Par 146-151</TITLE>L-146 One of these days we'll stand out beyond the earth, yonder, the ring of the earth, out yonder somewhere in space; and we won't be in heaven yet; we'll be caught up to meet Him in the air.
When Rebekah decided, quick deciding that she would go with Eliezer upon the camel to meet Jacob--or to meet Isaac which was her to-be husband, she'd never seen him, know that God was leading her... Jac--Jacob's son, or... Isaac was on his way out into the field at the cool of the evening. Remember, it was in the evening time. And Rebekah riding on a camel... Eliezer said, "There he comes now." And Rebekah jumped off the camel, pulled the veil from her face. She'd never seen him. Didn't know... That was her husband, but she'd never seen him. She was going to meet him by faith. (I don't know what He looks like, but, oh, when I see Him.) Out there when she seen him, it was love at the first sight. And he'd never seen her, so he seen her, love at the first sight. And here they come to meet one another in the fields. And he took her into his father's kingdom over here and married her.

L-148 That's the way the church will be caught up in the air, in the middle of the air, and meet the Lord on His road down. Oh, what an affair it will be, love at the first sight. And when we stand there upon the rings of this earth and sing them songs of redemption... Oh, my, how we'll sing and praise Him for our--the redeeming grace that He's give us. When Angels will cover the sides of the--the circle of the earth with bowed heads, not knowing what we're talking about... Them Angels wasn't lost; they won't know what it means to be saved. We was the ones who was lost; we were the one. We'll understand then what a horrible thing laid ahead of us, and He redeemed us by His Blood, out of every kindred, tongue, and nation. What a day of rejoicing that will be.

L-149 I like that song, said,
There's going to be a meeting in the air,
In the sweet, sweet by and by;
I'm going to meet you and greet you over there
In that home beyond the sky;
Such singing ever heard, ever heard by mortal ears,
It'll be glorious, I do declare!
When God's own Son, He'll be the leading One
At that meeting in the air. (Oh.)
You heard of little Moses in the bulrush,
You have heard of fearless David and his sling;
You heard the story told of dreaming Joseph,
And of Daniel and the lions we often sing.
Oh, but there's many, many others in the Bible,
And I long to meet them all, I do declare! (That's right.)
And what a joy it'll be when we meet them
At that meeting in the air. (Waiting for that day.)

L-150 There comes your hundred and forty-four thousand, will receive the Gospel after we... Can't receive it the same time the Light is on the Gentiles. The Jews are denying it and hiding it. Now, when the Light... Gentiles is taken up, then the Spirit comes upon two to give witness to them; then the Jews receive it, which is one hundred and forty-four thousand of the lost tribes of Israel will receive the Gospel; and the Bride is taken away.

L-151 Now, there's "ten virgins." Let's strike Matthew 21, right away. See, we still got quite a little time. Oh, I love the Bible.
When I take my vacation in heaven,
What a wonderful trip that'll be;
Hearing concerts by the heavenly Chorus,
And the gates of my--the face of my Saviour I'll see;
Setting down on the banks of the river,
Beneath the shade of the evergreen tree;
I want to spend my vacation in heaven,
Won't you come take yours with me...?...
