<TITLE>16. Par 72-77</TITLE>L-72 And so he said, "I got up there and tried to go through to plead the divorce case. And I said, 'This poor little woman (boohoo), poor little woman (boohoo),' went on like that."
Said, "An old attorney set across there, and looked like that for about a half hour, until I got through beating and crying, till I was out of voice nearly." Said, "The old attorney said, 'Judge, your Honor. How much more of this nonsense will your court stand?'"
He said, "I said... I went to the old attorney, and he told me. He said, 'You know what? You were making a lot of noise and everything. You're... that all right.' But said, 'you wasn't bringing any of the law out. It takes the law to defeat the case.'"

L-73 Brother, that's what I think tonight too. It's got to be the same thing, brother. No matter how much education, intellectual, and whatevermore we got, there's got to be some power and demonstration of the Holy Ghost to prove that it is God, that'll straighten up your life, that'll perform and do the same Life that Jesus Christ did. Amen.

L-74 Promised in the last days that He'd--it'd be light in the evening time. The prophet promised that. We notice the light geographically rises in the east and sets in the west. And the same sun that rises in the east is the same sun that sets in the west. We know that's true.
Now, where did civilization start? In the east. That's right. It's traveled with the sun, and now it's at the west coast. If it goes any further, it'll come back east again. The east and west has met, civilization. We want you to notice this just a minute.

L-75 Now, remember the prophet said, "There'll be a day that'll not be light nor dark, a dismal day. But in the evening time it shall be light." Now, notice. It shall be light in the evening time.
Now, the Son of God shined His righteousness and power upon the eastern people about nineteen hundred years ago. And there's come a span of time that we've had intellectual teachings. We've had a great time. We've made organizations. We have done great works, which is fine. It's just a dismal day. I don't guess you get them here in Phoenix, but in the east we get them, kind of cloudy, enough light to get around; but the sun isn't shining. Somewhere it's shining, because you--it wouldn't be light if it wasn't shining, but it's not exactly the good sunlight.

L-76 But then in the evening time, the clouds roll back, and the same sun that shined in the east is shining in the west. Then the same Jesus, the same Holy Ghost that fell back on the eastern people, has come down through the day of organization, has dropped down here in the last days to shine the light upon the western horizon. It's the same Jesus, the same thing, the same loving One. He's here tonight in the form of the Holy Spirit. Comes... He's--He's the unchangeable God. He just can't be changed. No, He comes in unexpected ways, working wonders different ways, His wonders to perform--mysterious ways, rather, His wonders to perform.

L-77 But remember, Jesus said, "As it was in the days of Sodom, so shall it be in the coming of the Son of man." No one can doubt that, but what He said, "As it was in Sodom..." Now, in Sodom, that was just before the fire fell and burned up Sodom and Gomorrah. And now we're just before striking that midnight hour for the second coming of Christ, and the world to be destroyed by fire.
