<TITLE>19. Par 64-66</TITLE>L-64 Now, how many's been here and heard me preach last Sunday afternoon and the seed of Abraham, and how that...? You've heard it, and so forth?
Now, when Jesus was here on earth, let's just see what He was here on earth. When He was here on earth, He had prayer lines, I guess, sure. But many times He stood, look out upon the audience, and tell the people. Is that right? How many knows by Scriptural reading that was His Messiahic sign? How many Scripture, Bible readers know that? You mean there's only that many Bible readers in here tonight that knows that? About one-third of the people put up their hands. How many Pentecostals are in here tonight? Raise up your hands. Shame on you or your pastor, one. Don't know what the sign of Messiah was?
What did Moses say the Messiah would be? "The Lord your God shall raise up (a--a teacher?) a prophet, liken unto me." And when they seen...
And God said, "If there be a prophet, and he does the sign of the prophet, and it comes to pass, then you believe him, because I'm--I'm. Now, that's My Word. But if it doesn't, then don't believe him."

L-65 Now, when Jesus was on earth, the way He proved Hisself to be Messiah... Now, I want to show some of you Pentecostal people this. Look at that Samaritan woman. Now, as long as you've been in Pentecost, yet that ill-famed Samaritan woman knowed more about the Bible, when she seen Jesus, than you know. 'Cause when Jesus talked to her and said "Woman, go get your husband," she said, "I have none." She said...
He said, "That's true. You've got--had five, and the one you're living with now is not yours. So you said the truth."
And she said, "Sir, I perceive that You are a prophet. We know when the Messiah cometh, He will tell us them things." She knew that'd be the sign of the Messiah. See?
And He said, "I'm He that speaks to you."
She run into the city. She said, "Come, see a Man Who told me the things I've done. Isn't this the very Messiah?" And the Bible said that that entire city believed on Jesus because that--of the woman's word. Now, how many knows that's the truth? See?

L-66 Well, if that was sign of Messiah yesterday, then... You can't find one Scripture where He did that before the Gentiles, or to the Gentiles, now, 'cause the Gospel hadn't yet gone to the Gentiles. But He did promise that at the end of the Gentile age, when the Gentiles now are looking for a Messiah... Are we? Well, then, if He appears in a different form than He did then, then it isn't the same Messiah. So He's got to come to the Gentiles in the same thing.
And Jesus said He would. Said, "As it was in the days of Sodom, so shall it be in the coming of the Son of man." And we find out that when the Lord came down in human flesh before Abraham, the elected church... When a modern Billy Graham and them went down and preached down in Sodom down there, to bring Lot and the church down there out... But to the elect bunch, the Angel set with His back turned to the tent and told what Sarah was doing in the tent. Is that right? And Jesus said the same thing would take place just before the coming of the Son of man.
