<TITLE>26. Par -</TITLE>L-683-194 In other words like this: "If you seen God provide and do a miracle, then can't He do a miracle again? See? See, if... In other words, like this: If He saved you from a life of sin, can He not heal your body? Don't you remember when you was a sinner how He lifted up your soul in faith to believe? Can't He likewise do something great for you again? Can't He--can't He do the--miracle or anything else for you? The five baskets... Said, "Remember..."
Like the... When they crossed over the Red Sea, God opened up the way like that and made the Red Sea open like that, and walked through, he come right on the other side; and as soon as he got without water, they started murmuring. Is that right? As soon as they got without bread they started crying out, "We don't have no bread." See? Said, "Didn't you consider the miracle back there at the Red Sea? Have not you come down..." When they got--all got in a spot by the Red Sea, "Oh," they said, "we ought to have died. Here comes the Egyptians right on us now. Here it is; what are we going to do?"
Said, "Who smote the earth with plagues down there? Who kept the sun shining in Goshen?" See? We must remember those things; remember God is God. Hallelujah. Any of it, He's still God. He certainly can do anything.

L-684-Q-167 167. Will you please explain the "Body of Christ" in I Corinthians 12:27 and the "Bride of Christ" in Revelation 2:9--9. Is the new Jerusalem spiritual here in Revel--spiritual here in Revelation? It--it--is this the spiritual discernment of the church?
No. Now, let's see if I get this first now, I Corinthians right quick, I Corinthians the 12th chapter, all right, and the 27th verse.
And ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.
And then, where was the next Scripture? Revelations 2--21:9, Revelation in the 21st chapter and the 9th verse. All right, and here we are.
And there came unto--and there came unto me one of the seven angels which had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues, and talked with me, saying, Come hither, and I will shew you the--the--I will shew you the bride, the Lamb's Wife.

L-684-199 Yes, the Body of Christ (See?), the body of Christ was broken for our sins, and by one Spirit we're all baptized into that Body and become members. And where did--where did the--the body... Where did my wife, symbolically speaking... Where did Eve come from? The body of Adam. She was taken out of his side. Eve was taken from Adam's side. The Christ... And she was part of his body. He said, "She's flesh of my flesh and bone of my bones. And I'll call her woman." See?
Now, and the body of Christ was taken out of the body of Jesus, for we are spirit and flesh and bone of Him. See? Because we are borned into His body. And because this body here belongs to Him, yet it's born in sin, He has redeemed it. "God will raise it up in the last days, and I'll live in it for eternally." See? That's it. All right.

L-685-201 Now, let's see, the last question here was: "Is the new Jerusalem spiritual?" No, no, the new Jerusalem John saw coming from God out of heaven, it isn't the discernment of the church now. You see? It's--it's a--the... The new Jerusalem John saw descending out of heaven prepared as a--Revelation 21 (See?)--prepared as a bride adorned for her Husband...
