<TITLE>26. Par 231-237</TITLE>L-231 And Noah, which is a type, and we had it las--last week in our lesson. Noah, the type of Israel that's carried over, will be over there on Mount Transfiguration, over there in--in Europe, down in Palestine, watching. And when they... When Noah saw Enoch was missing, he thought, "What become of Enoch? What become of Enoch? Where's he at?" Which was grandson, Noah was grandson to Enoch. And he said, "Where's it at? What become of him? We can't find him no more." Noah started building on that ark. He knowed that the time was at hand, right then.

L-232 And now, when the Church is taken up, and people say, "Well, I--I--I've called the police. I--I've put out calls. She was setting right at the table, and she vanished. I--I just don't know what become of her." Well, it's not only that. Well, the police say, "We got--we got five hundred calls of that this morning." What happened? It's over then for you Gentiles. That's right. Watching...

L-233 The Word of God is certain. "Heavens and earth will pass away," Matthew 24:35, "but God's promises cannot fail." Jesus said, "All heavens and earth will pass away."
You say, "Heavens?" Yeah.
Revelations 21, John said, "I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and first earth was passed away, and there were no more sea. And I John saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, descending out of heaven, as a bride (That's what it was.) adorned for her husband." Oh, that's where I want to be. God help me to be there that day. All right. God's promises is certain; we realize that.

L-235 Now, let's just take a little--a little Scripture, or a little trip, and go back and find out something, who believed in days gone by; how they come out by trusting whether God's Word was a certain sound. Now, let's go back to the beginning of the Bible, just for two or three characters. And we'll be ready for the prayer line in the next fifteen minutes or something.
Now, let's, go back to the first, and take Brother Noah, in the beginning, Noah, in Genesis. We find out that there was two or three sounds, many sounds being give out in the days of Noah. One of them, Noah heard the Voice of God, said, "It's going to rain." Now, God...

L-237 Listen. God usually tells you something that's so absolutely foolish to the things of the world, that it just... He does it to confound the world. They're just confounded in their mind. They say, "Now, a bunch of holy-rollers, oh, goodness sakes. Don't tell me that, that God, the holy God, will live such a bunch as that?"
That's the same thing that Balak said and Balaam said, when looked down and seen Israel: said, "Well, they've done everything mean there was on the line to do." But he failed to see that smitten Rock and that brass serpent, and see them signs and wonders of healing and things in the camp. Fundamentally, they were just the same. But God does something so radical. God is radical. Now, that sounds strange, but He is. Now, we'll just find out with a few characters.
