<TITLE>15. Par 67-70</TITLE>L-67 That pedigreed horse can tell you who his papa was, who is mama was, who his grandpapa, grandmama, great, great, great, great, great, great, and go on back. He's pedigreed. That's the way I like to see a pedigreed Christian (Amen.), one that knows who his papa is and who is mama is. You say, "Are you a Christian?"
"I'm a Methodist." Well, that's a good confession that you're not a Christian.
"I'm a Baptist."
"I'm Presbyterian."
"I'm Pentecostal."
Brother, we're Christian because we're a pedigree, borned of the Holy Ghost. I know Who my Father is. Amen.
A Christian is a Christian. Jesus said, "He that believeth on Me, the works that I do, shall he do also; these signs shall follow them that believe," a pedigreed Christian, one that's filled with the Holy Ghost. No uncertain sound about that. No, sir. That's right.
That's the way it sounded on the day of Pentecost. So it's still sounding the same thing. And it's a real certain sound. That's right. That's one good certain sound. Yes.

L-68 Simeon. He was certain he was going to see Him. Jesus was certain of the Father's Word. Why, certainly. When Mary come up there, and--and she said--or Martha rather, she said, "Lord, if You would've been here, my brother would not have died. But even now, whatever You ask God, God will do."
And He said, "I am the Resurrection and Life. He that believeth in Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live. Whosoever liveth and believeth in Me shall never die. Believest thou this?"
She said, "Yea, Lord. I believe that You're the Son of God, like You say You are. I believe You're that Messiah that was to come into the world."
Said, "Where have you buried him?"

L-69 Now, He didn't say, "I--I'll go down and see what I can do about it." Oh, no. "I'll go wake him." Not, "I'll go try to." "I will." Amen. That's certain. Jesus said He did nothing till the Father showed Him. That's Saint John 5:19. "I do nothing till I see the Father doing it... shows Me first."
And the Father had showed Him that Lazarus was going to raise from the dead. Therefore, before anything was said, He said, "I'll go and wake him," not, "See if I can." He said, "I have power to lay My life down and to take it up again," nothing uncertain about that, not a thing uncertain about that.

L-70 "You kill Me... You destroy this tabernacle and I'll build it up again in three days." "Destroy this..." "I will." I'll try and see what happens?" "I will." Because David said, "I'll not leave His soul in hell, neither will I suffer My holy One to see corruption." He knowed in seventy-two hours corruption set in. And in somewhere, before that seventy-two hours was up, Jesus' body was going to rise from the dead: nothing uncertain about it. He trusted God's Word emphatically. Amen. Everything He did, He trusted God by it.
Now, He said, "He that believeth in Me, the works that I do shall he do also." Nothing uncertain about that. He said that it was certain. "He shall." He give His church commission and said, "Go into all the world and preach the Gospel. These signs shall follow them that believe; in My Name they shall cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; if they take up serpents or drink deadly things, it'll not harm them. If they lay their hands on the sick, they shall recover." There's nothing uncertain about that. That's right.
