<TITLE>48. Par -</TITLE>L-79-5 Heal the sick and afflicted everywhere in Jesus' Name I pray. And if You'll just make Yourself known to us now, just like You did there at the well with that woman when You talked with her, You told her something that was wrong with her: she had five husbands. Now, You promised to do it in the evening time. You promised to do it in the last days. You said, "And it--so shall it be in the coming of the Son of man. As it was in the days of Lot, so will it be," God, living in human flesh, moving among us in the form of His church in the Holy Spirit, performing the same signs. Grant it, Lord, just today, won't You, Father?
Then, I pray that You'll let the people see it, and everyone be healed and saved for the glory of God. Amen.

L-80-1 Now, I'm going to call your attention now, if you'll just be real reverent for a few minutes. Now, everybody just quiet as you possibly can be now.

L-80-2 Are you sure that you're realizing the position that I'm in here now? I preached the Word here, the Word of God. I've said It's all true. Jesus said that "He that believeth in Me, the works that I do shall he also." Now, I want to ask you a question, and be careful whether you--whether you say "amen" or not, now. Jesus, Himself, never claimed to heal anybody. That is true. He said, "It's not Me that doeth the works; It's My Father that dwelleth in Me." Is that right? And Jesus said in Saint John 5:19, "Verily, verily (absolutely), I say unto you, the Son (Himself, as a Man--He was just a Tabernacle where God lived. See?)" He said, "the Son can do nothing in Himself, but what He sees the Father doing; that doeth the Son likewise." Otherwise: "The Father shows Me a vision, what to do, and I do just as He tells Me."

L-80-3 Now, one day we find that there was, say, a little woman couldn't get in the prayer line. She had a blood issue, and she'd had it for many years, so she just touched His garment, saying within herself... She was insignificant. She was just a poor, little, old woman, didn't have no money; and she couldn't get up there with them priests and all of them standing there, who had the rights to stand and everything; so she couldn't stand up there. So she just crawled around till she got there and touched His garment; she said, "I believe He's just exactly... He--He brings us the Truth, the Life. I believe He's the Word of God, and if I can just touch Him, I--I'll be made whole."

L-81-1 Do you believe? Could you believe the same thing that woman believed, that He is the Word of God? Now, the Bible says today that He's a High Priest (See?), our High Priest right now. Do you believe that? After His resurrection and His ascension, He ascended on High and give gifts to men, and now He's setting at the right hand of God and the Majesty on high and to make intercessions upon what we confess. Is that right? And He's a High Priest that can be what? Touched by what? The feelings of our infirmities. Now, if He is... Do you believe He is the same? [Congregation answers, "Amen"--Ed.]

L-81-2 Now, look. If you come here, and just touched me all day long, it wouldn't make a bit of difference. If you touched any other brother, sister, it wouldn't make much difference, just the order of laying on hands is all. But if you just touch Him, that's all you have to do. And look, if you touched Him with a--with some kind of a ritual like they did, they said, "Oh, we believe this great teacher; this is a prophet." Why, He didn't say nothing. But that little woman had a certain thing that touched Him: her faith. She touched His garment, and He said, "Who touched Me?"
