<TITLE>22. Par 102-106</TITLE>L-102 That little woman seen she couldn't never get his attention, because the rabbis and priests and everybody around Him, and everybody... And--and she touched His garment, and Jesus stopped, and said, "Who touched Me?"
And Peter as much as rebuked Him, said, "Who touched You? Everybody's touching You. Why say a thing like that?"
He said, "But I perceive that virtue, strength has gone from me. Somebody had a certain touch." And He looked over the audience until He found the little woman. And what was her trouble? She had a blood issue. And if she had enough faith to touch God, that throwed a reaction upon Jesus... And then, if Christ is in us (anointed with the Holy Spirit), won't your same desire touch the same thing?

L-103 Now, I want to ask you ministers something. Does the Bible say that Jesus Christ is a High Priest, right now, that can be touched by the feeling of our infirmities? Is that right? How many knows that to be the truth? The Bible says that, the New Testament. He is right now a High Priest that can be touched by what? The feeling of our infirmities. Well then, how would you know you touched Him? If He's the same yesterday, today, and forever, He will act the same that He did yesterday. Is that right?

L-104 Well, now, He has no hands on earth but mine and yours. His voice on earth is ours; our voice is given to Him. That's why we preach the Gospel. We believe it's not us. We're inspired to preach those things, the Holy Spirit speaking through us. See? We don't believe that we can do that. Certainly not. I know I couldn't. And--and we--we know that; it's the inspiration of the Holy Spirit.
Then, if a man preaches something that's contrary, and denies the Word, then how can the Holy Spirit write the Word, and turn around and deny It through a man? He can't do it. It's got to be the Word. It's got to come forth just the way it's written, just exactly.

L-105 Now, if He's a High Priest... Let's hold that one Scripture, just take that. If He's a High Priest that can be touched by the feeling of our infirmities, then the only way you'd ever know would He... If He is the same yesterday, today, and forever, He will act just exactly like He did when that woman touched Him. And then, if I be His servant, and His Spirit is in me, you can touch His garment wherever you are. It wouldn't...
My garment wouldn't make any difference. I'm a man, a sinner saved by grace. But it's no more than your wife, your husband, or brother, whoever it might be, your pastor; all of us, we're the same. But He is the High Priest. I'm not the High Priest. He is.
You touching me would do no good; but touching Him will. But if I can submit myself to Him... I'm just like this--this microphone here. This microphone is a complete mute until something speaks into it. Is that right? Well, then...

L-106 I don't know a one of you out there. And if I would see It over some of you I do know I wouldn't say nothing. I know Brother and Sister Dauch setting right there. And I believe this is the little Greek brother here from Greece, that I--that I can't think of his name. David. And outside of that I think this is the--these people right here--these three or four girls right here on this front row, I know them 'cause they're from Georgia, and over in Tennessee. They're... come to my church. Some of them people drive fifteen hundred miles on Sunday, every Sunday that I preach.
Outside of that, I think Sister Evans is setting right there, Sister Ungren and them, Brother Evans setting right along there.
Now, I'm asking you people, how many in here is sick, and knows that I don't know you, know nothing about you? Raise your hands. Have faith.
