<TITLE>45. Par -</TITLE>L-581-440 Now, I've had... I got a doctor right here in town. I can tell you of a doctor... I ain't going to tell you who it is, a friend of mine who put his hands around me, and said, "Billy, it would be easy for me to say to you, 'you are God's last day Messiah.'" See?
I said, "Doc, don't you do that."
He said, "Well, I don't see nobody in the world that's ever had a thing and say the things and do the things that you do, Billy." It's helped him a lot. See? He said, "I go to these churches and see these preachers and things." He said, "You're different from them and I know you ain't got no education. (See?) And I know that you're not a psychologist, 'cause you--psychology won't do those things." See?
And I said, "That's true, Doc."
No need in talking to him, 'cause he don't even know, you couldn't get to first base with him (See?), 'cause he don't know what to do. But that's it. You see?

L-581-443 I know a colored woman that lives up the lane from me; and she works for another man that I know of, and this man's wife called, said, "That woman would absolutely do worship to you as a god, 'cause she was dying with cancer and you laid hands on that woman and said she was..." This woman that she works for, her husband and this certain doctor (not the doctor I was speaking about, another doctor) plays golf and things together, and he'd give her up. And that was his buddy's housemaid, and had give her up to die, and she was healed absolutely. And the doctor couldn't even find a trace of it, of the cancer. And, see, she'd say...

L-581-444 Now, they don't mean it in the light that I think that they say it in or we take it in. See? They mean it that they--they... They mean that they believe God is with us, in us, working through us; not that a individual is God. You see? Now, they know that John was just a man.
And so was Jesus just a Man. Jesus was just a Man; He was just born of a woman, had to die. Is that right? He was a Man, had to eat and drink, and hungered, cried, and thirst, and everything, just as human as that you are, as human as I am. But the Spirit of God was in Him in the Fullness, without measure. He was omnipotent in power, where, Elijah was just a portion of that Spirit, maybe anointed a little above his brethren; but he was just a portion of the Spirit. But the people was a-looking for the Messiah. And they seen this portion above their brethren, they said, "Oh, my, this must be Him."
But when He begin to shine, John's little light went out. See?
And these little lights will go out when He comes, that great anointed Christ of heaven coming from the east to the west. And the... and... See?

L-582-448 But He will not be on earth now, the Messiah will not be on earth until the millennium sets in. See, see? 'Cause the church, we're caught up together to meet the Lord in the air. He never comes to the earth. He catches His Bride away.
He gets a ladder, you know, like... What was that play, Leo, where the man put the ladder up the side of the house? Romeo--Romeo and Juliet. That's right, put the ladder up and stole his bride away.
Now, He's just coming down Jacob's ladder, and say, "Psst, Sweetheart, come here. Psst, psst." See, we're going up to meet Him.
