<TITLE>18. Par 66-69</TITLE>L-66 And I can see him go back to the tent till he met it--in the main tent. He said, "Sarah, sifter some flour." In other words, knead the bread, you know.
And how many ever knowed what kneading bread was? I remember my mama used to have a big old sifter, and had a big old bin. We put the meal in there. And she had a wedge. She'd scrape that wedge right over top of that sifter, you know, and shake the meal through to make corn bread.
And so, went and said, "Knead some--some meal, or flour." And said, "Make some cakes upon the hearth."
And he run out amongst the herd, and found a little calf, and dressed it, give it to the men, or killed it, and give it to the servant to dress.
And he went back out and stood before Them; he brought the meat out and set it down. Now, remember, They eat the meat, and drank milk, and eat the bread.
Notice. And Who did he feed that to? God. That was God. Abraham called Him "Elohim." You brethren know that. Elohim is the self-existing One, like He begin in Genesis 1, Elohim. Elohim, the great I AM, in human flesh, eating meat, drinking milk, eating corn bread, and setting under a shade tree, with dust on His clothes, just an ordinary man. But Abraham knew that was more than a man.

L-67 Two of them got up and went down to Sodom. They went down there to preach, down to Sodom. Oh, if you're spiritual you'll probably catch it. Did you notice? Them two that went down there, they did not do any miracles, only blind their eyes to the door. (And preaching the Gospel blinds the unbelievers' eyes.) But they was two men went down there to preach, to bring Lot out of Sodom.
Look at today. Isn't it strange in this last days, that all down through the age, through Abraham's seed age, the junction of the church, we've had: Moody, Sankey, Finney, Knox, Calvin, Spurgeon, Wesley, so forth. But never--and we had a Billy Sunday, but never did we ever have before a Billy Graham.

L-68 Notice, the Angel had changed Abram's name to Abraham, spelled A-b-r-a-m...?... A-b-r-a-h-a-m, giving him part of His Name: Abraham, Elohim, because he was to be father of nations, also.
And never has the intellectual church down through the age, ever received a messenger that's been internationally known before, with a name ending h-a-m. See where it's at? Modern Billy Graham down in Sodom: "Come out of it." That's what Billy Graham's screaming. "Get out of it; the end's at hand." G-r-a-h-a-m, never in the history of the church, but this is it. Watch our Lord refer to it.

L-69 Then there was one Angel stand up, stayed back with Abraham. Watch what kind of miracle He give that elected church. He had His back turned to the tent. Why didn't he call him Abram? He said, "Abraham, where is thy wife?" Not S-a-r-r-i, but S-a-r-a-h. "Where is thy wife, Sarah?"
And he said, "She's in the tent behind you." The Bible said that the--the tent was behind the Angel, or the Messenger, a Messenger setting there eating flesh, drinking milk. Said, "She's in the tent behind you."
He said, "Abraham, I (oh, personal pronoun) I am going to visit you according to the time of life, as I've promised you."
