<TITLE>07. Par 22-24</TITLE>L-22 We'd ask for each of us here, ask for our little pastor brother, and for these other ministers, evangelists, and--and Your servants that's on the platform; inspire them, Lord, and give their ministry a great charge of Your Holy Spirit.
May this little house here that we're in tonight be open until Jesus comes. If He tarries, may missionaries and ministers be sent from here to all over the world. May it truly be the house by the side of the road where the weary can come in and find rest.
Save the lost; heal the sick; sanctify the believers; and give us faith tonight, Father. O God, that's what we need: faith in Thy Word. We ask it in Jesus' Name. Amen.
In Saint John 12:20.
And there were certain Greeks among them that came up to the feast to worship:
The same came... to Philip, which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see Jesus.
And my text is found in Hebrews 13:8.
Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, to day, and forever.

L-23 Now, just not to hold you, but to get your attention for a few moments to build faith around for each one of you to be healed.
And as I look in the church tonight and see a man here coughing, a darling laying there, some mother's precious baby with a big water-head, dying, dear old woman setting in a wheelchair, and so forth...
Oh, if there was some way, something that I could do. See? And maybe these in the wheelchair, and so forth, would live an ordinary life; and maybe a good healthy-looking man or woman setting out there, a young person, will be dead by tomorrow in a heart attack. See? These may outlive them a long time. We don't know. See the white canes of the people, walking blind, oh, if there was just something I can do to help you. If I didn't think I could help you, I would never come by here. If I didn't think I could help the people...

L-24 It isn't for money. That I don't take. And I'm--I'm fifty-one years old. I've been preaching for thirty-one years and never took an offering all my life. So I--I do not... We keep money out of it. We keep our meetings small, so we don't have to have big programs and things to operate. So we can go to the smallest of church, or wherever the Lord leads, there's where we go.
Now, I'm not condemning the brethren who has those big programs, and television casts, and so forth. That's fine. I thank God that there's men in the world that He can trust with money like that, that can...?... But for me, I--I just couldn't do it. I'd have to take up money, and I--I've never done it yet, and I pray God will help me that I'll never have to.
So I'm here to help you. And if I didn't think I could help you, I sure wouldn't be here. I'd be home tonight with my wife and little boy and two little girls. I'd be setting up there by the fire somewhere tonight in the east, enjoying with them. But I'm almost a stranger to them. I just see them now and then, traveling the world around, but...
