<TITLE>07. Par 21-24</TITLE>L-21 Now, remember. God is infinite, and He's almighty. And He is omnipresent, because He is omniscient... or--and...
Now, notice. Then this Word is the truth. And if it is the truth, it's God's Word. And no man is any better than his word. We're always wanting to sign contracts with one another. But to me it always seemed if I sign a contract with a man that I haven't got very much confidence in... But if I've got confidence in the man, we sign no contract, our word is what stands. Your word is your bond.
And if I cannot tell you the truth, then my word is no good. And if God has told us something that is not truth, then this is not the Word of God or He could not be God. How can He be the infinite God, and then tell something that is wrong? See? So I believe that this is the Word of God. And that the right mental attitude towards any of those Divine promises in there will bring it to pass.

L-22 Now, I can... There's... I say that there may be promises in there that I could not bring to pass. Such as Enoch walked with God for five hundred years, and took an afternoon stroll, and went home with Him without dying. I wished I had that kind of faith. But I would not want to stand in somebody else's way who had that kind of a faith. So we must believe it's the Word of God.
Now, watch this. Those Greeks well expressed the desire of every person who ever heard about Jesus Christ. For they said in their--that what they wanted was, "Sirs, we would see Jesus." They did not desire to hear Him to teach. They did not ask for any of those miracles to see them. They did not say, "Let me see your... Jesus' miracles. Let me hear Him teach awhile." They said, "Sirs, we would see Jesus."

L-23 Now, they were enthused, because they had heard of Him. Now, "Faith cometh by hearing, hearing of the Word." Now, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us." So they come to see the Word made flesh. Christ was God's Word made flesh.
Now, if He was then, permitted these people to see Christ, and we tonight would desire to see Him, then why could we not see Him just as well as they did? Now, how many in here would like to say, "I would love to see Jesus"? Let's see your hands. Just all over the audience, no matter whether you're Christian, sinner or not. "I would like to see Jesus."

L-24 Well, if that is our desire, and that's the same desire those Greeks had that came up to the feast (it was the feast of Pentecost), and when they came up their desire... They'd heard of Him, but they wanted to see Him. So they got their desire by requesting it through a servant of Christ.
Then if He is the same yesterday, today and forever, then could we not get our desire the same as they could, if He is the same? Should not we be able to see Him just the same as they did? If it isn't, then there's something wrong with His Word. For He said here that He's the same yesterday, today, and forever.
Well then, if we were going to look for Him tonight... And let me quote one more promise, which I will not try to take too much of your time. 'Cause I know you're farming, and got to sow your seeds, and so forth. And I--I don't want to take that. But we got some Seeds here that grows a different kind of a Life. So let's take and lay these seeds in our hearts. For they are Eternal Life to all that will accept it and believe it.
