<TITLE>28. Par 253-262</TITLE>L-253 Here sometime ago, they dug up a--a modern waterworks right here in Mexico that'd been sunk during the antediluvian: a modern waterworks, way smarter than we are today. See?
"As it was in the days of Noah," smart people like that, "so will it be in the coming of the Son of man," another smart generation.
How smart those people were, probably greater science, that could measure how far each star was apart. They were so smart till geographically they put that big--big pyramid right; and so centered in the earth, till, no matter where the sun is, there's never a--never a shadow around it; morning, evening, midday, or anywhere, no shadow around it. See? I've been there.

L-256 Now, notice all these things that they did, and the powers that they had... And could you imagine, it'd never rained, and nothing in the skies to make it rain. How in the world did--did that man ever get that message over? He didn't. That was it.
But as Noah stood in the door of the ark and warned the people of the oncoming destructions, so is a Gospel preacher that's borned again today standing in the Door, Christ Jesus, enshrouded around by the Holy Ghost, warning the people of a coming destruction. Sure, as it was in the days of Noah, here we are standing in this day.
Now, how could science say, "Rain come from there?" But, you see, God knowed how to bring rain from there. He either caused an earthquake, or somebody had atomic power that they throwed it and bursted some part of the earth. And it swung the earth backward, throwed it out of its orbit, and now it leans back. And when they did that, the heat of the earth and the cold of the earth, from the sun and away from the sun, caused the cloud to come over. He's Jehovah-Jireh. He can provide Himself anything that His Word said.

L-259 Now, He can provide Himself a Church; He don't have to have me. He don't have to have you. No, He don't. He doesn't have to have... He can provide. Somebody else can take your place. Be careful some don't take your crown. He don't have to--to have us, but we have to have Him. If you ever lived, you've got to have Him. Because He's the only One, as Peter said when He said, "Will you all go?"
So when He got to tell them the Truth. He was a great Man when He was healing all their sick. Oh, when He had signs and wonders following Him, He was a great Man. But when He begin to tell them the Truth, then what happened? Then He become a fanatic; they walked away from Him. He turned around to the disciples. Remember, He was very independent, 'cause He was God. He turned around, said, "You want to go too?"
Peter said, "Lord, who would we go to? Where would we go? For You're the One that has the Words of Eternal Life, and we're sure of this." See, there's no uncertainty about That. "We're sure that You're the One that has it. We are not tossed about with every wind of doctrine. We know that You've got the Words of Eternal Life, 'cause no man can do the things You do unless God be in him (That's right.) be with him." Nicodemus said the same remark.

L-262 Now, let's say then, Noah... Was the sound uncertain Noah was listening to? No, sir. It was right. We had an antediluvian destruction, destroyed all the world, and God sent the water just the way He said. Why? It's the Word of God said so. Science drowned and perished.
Look, the very thing that saved Noah, killed his critics. Did you know that? The very water... If there hadn't have been no water, Noah couldn't have been saved. The ark was the one that floated. So the very thing that floated the ark, drowned the critic.
And the very Holy Spirit today, that people are making fun of, It will save the Church and condemn the critic: the very same thing (See?), the very same thing. What saves, kills the... What saves the believer, condemns the unbeliever. That's right. So, you see, have faith in God's Word. That's one thing you can stand on, and know it's certain. What God says, it's certain. Just believe it.
