<TITLE>16. Par 58-62</TITLE>L-58 When He made Hisself known to the race of the Samaritans, He made Himself known as a Prophet. And the woman went in and told the men of the city, "Come, see a Man Who told me the things I've done. Isn't this the very Messiah?" Now, let me take the next verse. And the Bible says that the whole city, all the whole race there, believed on Jesus, because what the woman said--of the woman's word.
Think. He did that sign one time, and it settled it for all times. They said, "He is the Messiah." 'Cause He did the sign of the Messiah.

L-59 Now, remember. Now, in this last days, notice, not Jesus here on earth in a physical body, but the Spirit of Jesus in human flesh, being the branch to the Vine, would do the same thing in human flesh.
When the Church would assemble together, He would make Hisself known through them. So if He would come into this church tonight and perform that same thing, could we not raise up our hands and thank God, as those Greeks did: "We have seen Jesus." That's what He was. That's what He is, if He's the same yesterday, today and forever. Is that true?
How many would like to see Him? Let us bow our heads.

L-60 Holy and gracious God, this is a--a great moment. This is a moment when it might mean the difference between life and death to many people. It might be at this moment that there would be a--someone setting that would be critical that might eternally separate themselves from God.
There might be one here, Lord, who has been critical and would become a believer and have Eternal Life. There may be those, Lord, here who are sick. And has been going to church and the--the faithful pastors has anointed them oil and prayed over them, and they could not grasp the faith to be healed.
May it come to pass, Lord, that they will see that the very Christ that their pastor has talked about, is now moved up a little higher with us, or a little close to us--little closer, and will make Hisself known among us tonight. Then they can grasp the faith to see, "Yes, Jesus is here. He's in our midst. I believe Him as my Healer, as my Saviour."

L-61 And then they can go testifying, making their testimony ring out. And You can be the High Priest. And You are the High Priest of their profession now. When they can truly, from their heart, believe that You have did the work...
We know as far as the work itself, it is already finished, but to appropriate faith to believe it... "All things are possible to them that believe."

L-62 Now, Lord Jesus, I would be better off out on the creek bank there, resting somewhere fishing, or maybe setting down to my home with my little boy here today on his birthday. My little six year old Joseph, how I would love to have him on my lap tonight, seeing those big eyes look up at me and say, "Daddy," a joy that Thou has give me of my middle age.
I would be better off down there or anywhere than to be here in this church, trying to deceive the children of God. God, I pray that somehow, that each one here will be able to grasp these few chopped up words, Father. They might've been scattered. They might've been... not be drilled into hearts, as grain usually is drilled. But if they were scattered, may it fall in the ground that You have provided. And the results and the praise will be Yours, Father.
