<TITLE>08. Par 32-35</TITLE>L-32 Now, 'fore praying for the sick, I might say this. What if a little baby before it's borned... Let's take that. A little baby that has lived in the womb of the mother for these nine months, and that little baby could think. It would say, "You know what? They tell me I'm fixing to be born. Well, what do I do out there? I don't know nothing of this place that I live here. I draw out my strength from inside. And how will I make a living out there? They tell me there's a sun that shines. They tell me that the people there walk around, and I don't know nothing but just this place here. This is all I know, right here in the--in the womb of my mother. Here's where I was brought in. Here's all I know is right in this womb. And they tell me that there's just room times room."
Well, that little baby would be scared to death to be born. Is that right? It would be scared to death, 'cause it's coming into a place it knows nothing about, which is supreme, millions of times supreme, to where it's been living. It wouldn't know what it was all about. It'd say, "How... What am I going to do?" It'd be scared to death to be born. But we who live out here, well, we was--was back there one time. We would by no means go back there. We wouldn't want to go back in the mother's womb again. See? No. We wouldn't want to do that.

L-33 And that's just the way it is when we are dying, friend. O God. See? You're being borned into a place. You've never been there. You can't understand it how great it is. How--how's it going to be out there? I...
And the only thing that makes me realize, or you realize, is that little touch of life, like the spirit come into the baby in it's mother's womb. See, it's the only way that we can understand what is that great Land out yonder, when there's no sickness, no sorrow, no death, no old age, no nothing. Oh, my. Why, when you once get over there, you'd never want to come back to a place like this, no more than a baby would want to go back to it's mother's womb. See? It's so much greater on the other side (See?), out there.
We can't understand it. Certainly not. We can't... Why, how that little baby is beyond any thinking, so are we beyond any understanding of what that would be out there. See? Because we're in the womb of the earth ready to be born sometime into a new Kingdom into a new world.

L-34 And that's the way that I feel about those visions and things like that, or that whatever happened to me that day, when I crossed over just on the outside and seen what that was, and then come back into here. Could you imagine being a baby and--and had a--a knowledge of what--how glorious this was to walk around, and see the trees a-blooming, the birds a-singing, and sunshine, and a life like this, and then have to be confined into a womb? Why, you wouldn't want to go back at all.
Well, then, we in our--our thinking would be numb up the side or try to think of what that is over there when the Scripture says, "Eye has not seen, ear's not heard, or either has ever entered in the heart of man what God has for them in store that love Him." See? So we know that it's glorious on the other side. Someday death, what we call death, will give us the new birth. Then we'll come into the other world on the other side.

L-35 Brother George, you won't be old, crippled around over there. And Brother and Sister Spencer and some like some of us is older and so forth, it... We'll be young there forever. This old... "This robe of flesh, I'll drop, and rise, and seize the everlasting prize, and shout while passing through the air, 'Farewell, farewell, sweet hour of prayer.'" It's all over.
No more long nights of praying. No more... Just enter into that young, joyful age to be there, not for just a year, or fifty years, or a million years. When we've been there a hundred billion years, we won't even be started at all. That's it. So why shouldn't we be happy this morning? Why shouldn't we rejoice? Why shouldn't we take advantage of every great thing God has give us?
