<TITLE>01. Par 1-4</TITLE>61-0205E, Jesus Christ The Same Yesterday, Today, And Forever, Central Assembly Of God, Tucson, AZ, 117 min
L-1 Thank you very much, brother. I was so thrilled when I heard that song, "Down From His Glory." Ever who that brother was that sang that, I heard he dedicated to me. I sure appreciate that. That's my favorite hymn. It was wrote by a personal friend of mine, Brother William Booth-Clibborn. It expresses in there the Deity of our Lord Jesus Christ. Today when they try to make Him just another man, or--or a prophet, or something, I think that expresses what He was. He came down from glory. God was manifested in the flesh in Christ Jesus His Son. He--He--He expressed in His flesh what God was. And God can express through us what He is if we'll just let Him. Through the righteousness of Christ, then our unrighteousness is not counted to us. It is reckoned... Our faith is reckoned, that it will be counted to us as faith and righteousness in His sight, which, we have none of our own that we could offer.

L-2 I just trust that it'll be a great time again, that I can come back to--to this city. This morning I was speaking in such a lovely little audience here, of such a responding audience. I feel if we could stay with you a little while so we'd get to know each other...
My ministry's a little odd; and therefore, not being able to express it all at one little service, then it makes you wonder about this or that. But when we are for a quite awhile visiting, you can see night after night and watch what's spoke and see if it happens. And then you begin to realize what the ministry is. And then it makes us understand one another much better.

L-3 I certainly appreciate the invitation that the pastor here gave me to come here to the church, for all you people, and for all the churches throughout the city. I hope someday, if it be the will of God, that I could come back and stay a more extended service in the city, where we could get all the--the peoples together, the churches, the ministers.
And tonight it's pretty rough on the ministers, and maybe many of their sick people had to get permission to come down to be prayed for. And I wished I could express my feelings to the pastors that turned their congregations out tonight that they could come to hear the service and to be prayed for. May the Lord ever bless men like that, men of--of great--of great integrity, someone who's got a real heart for sick and needy people. I'm sure that they will prosper in doing things like that.
Now, I think there's several churches here. I just had a letter I opened a few moments ago from the pastor of the First Assembly of God here in the city, and he had someone real sick here in the hospital. And if... I don't know... He's in church at this time, I suppose, and I certainly will be in prayer for that person, if the--any of their people are here.

L-4 Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. He never can fail. And I trust that He will bless each of us tonight, and we'll leave here with the glory of God in our heart.
Now, I would like to say this, because of just passing through, and praying for the sick, and saying, "a healing service." Now, we... That's not all my ministry. We believe the first thing is salvation, because if you get healed you'll--live any time, you'll probably be sick again. But when you receive Christ, you got Eternal Life. And how much more is Eternal Life than just the healing of the body. But Divine healing, Christ used it--Divine healing to attract the attention of the people. And about eighty-six percent of His ministry was in Divine healing. Therefore, it's something that shows the supernatural.
