<TITLE>08. Par 27-30</TITLE>L-27 Now, if the eagle didn't have some reason to be up there, he'd never be made that way. So that's the reason God made him and called him His prophet, because the prophet rises higher, like Isaiah, and Jeremiah, and them. They went way up in. Farther up you go, the farther away you can see. Now, some people just stays on the ground all the time, so his vision's just right here. But as you raise, higher you raise, further away you can see. Oh, my. No wonder some people's so nearsighted. They have never got their foot off the ground yet. Oh, higher you can raise...
And the eagle is the highest of all. He can raise higher than any other bird. Nothing can follow him. Why, I doubt whether an airplane could get to him, or not... [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.] There making it, generating its own air.
But when you get up in there, this bird, the live bird up in there, he look around; he can see. His eyes so far beyond the hawk, he can get up there and see things. Like if--if there was a storm coming, and you could be high enough in the air, you could see it hundreds and hundreds of miles away. If you was high enough up, you could see it.
Well, God took His prophets and raised them up so high like Jeremiah, and Isaiah, John, and them, till they saw plumb on down into the millennium (Amen.), way out.

L-28 I was over to visit a brother in Phoenix not long ago, a Brother Outlaw. He said... That's a horrible name for a Christian brother, but he's a fine man, and he's one of my... Brother Kidson, when you and I were there, we was at his church. And he had a choir up there. They were godly looking little women, with no manicure on their face, and had long hair, and dress. I--I always... What is that? What is that, you call that? I always get... Mascara. That--that--that don't sound right. Oh, anyhow, it's on the lips, and on the... Just all over. See? So paint is really what it is. Well, I guess that's it too, ever what it is.
Well, anyhow, they wasn't dressed like that. And their little old faces, just as shiny as a peeled onion. And there we was standing there, and they--his little boy standing out there singing, "We're going up, up, up."
And he said, "The first round was justification, second round, sanctification. [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]... glorification. Then the Holy Ghost came down." Said, "I started up-up, up-up-up, up-up, up-up-up till I struck the Milky White Way."
I thought I was gone then...?... just feeling... That's that eagle mounting up, going up way up in there till you can see the coming of the Lord.

L-29 Oh, no wonder, when that little woman seen Grant come into--to Richmond up there, she said, "Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord... trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored." Sure, catching the vision of the coming of the Lord, going up...

L-30 Now, he's a special-built bird. He can fly higher; and if he gets up there, he can see far off. And Jehovah, Papa Eagle, sits all the way up in the heavens. Oh.
When He was here on earth, He was given the lowest name could ever be given: Beelzebub. He went to the lowest city there is in the world: Jericho; and become so low until He had to look up in a tree to see the smallest man in the city. That's right. He was called everything on earth: bad names, and everything.
But when He was exalted, He was given a Name above every Name that's named in heaven and in earth; that all the family, both in heaven and earth, is named after Him. He is exalted so high above, till He has to look down to see heaven. Now, that's how God did Him when He got up there. That's the difference.
