<TITLE>09. Par -</TITLE>L-705-75 Then there had to be One come without sex. Now, if sex wasn't the first thing, then why did they have to have One in sex to redeem the whole human race? Why didn't He just bring one down the corridors and said, "Here's the just One that thinks right"? It had to come through the sex, come through woman, because that's where it come in the first place. Through sex brought unrighteousness, and through sex brought Righteousness. See? God, without an adultery, without sexual desire, brought forth Jesus Christ by immaculate conception, by overshadowing Mary and creating in her this baby, that come by sex. And through that, His holy Blood redeemed the whole fallen race. See? So it has to be, no other way for it.
Every man that's born of a woman is death bound; he's dead when he's born. That's right.
That's the reason I was talking the other day how that we have that blessed assurance now.

L-706-78 When Israel... Isn't... I speak so many things that's got nothing to it, but sometimes the Lord gives me something and it just thrills me. So when He gave me that, it thrilled me more than anything I've ever had in years. When He gave me that the other day, when I see that Israel (a slave) had no home, God's children. Throw in molded bread, anything they want to... Oh, if they could only have a home where they could live in peace, earn their living by the sweat of their brow.
And one day, coming down out of the wilderness come a prophet, led by a Pillar of Fire, and told them of a promised land. Nobody had never been there, they know nothing of it. But it was a promise. Upon that they believed and followed this prophet till they got near the promised land.

L-706-80 Then there's a witness called Joshua, which means "Jehovah-saviour," crossed over Jordan into that land and returned back with the evidence that that land was just exactly what that prophet said it was with the Word of God. They had a bunch of grapes, taken two men to pack, and they could taste the original fruit from the land. Nobody knowed the land was there; they just believed it. They walked out by faith and believed it.
Now, when they inherited their land, how happy they was. Each one could live in peace, have his little garden, have his children and everything. But yet, old age finally got him, and death cornered him and took him.
Then down from the corridors of heaven, through a woman, came another great Warrior, the greatest of all of them, God Himself made manifest in the flesh, Jesus Christ. And He told Israel what a great people they had been, but death faced them; He said, "But I'm telling you of another land. In My Father's House is many mansions. If it wasn't so I would've told you. You're happy in your land; you have your homes; you have your children. But you're burying each one out yonder and it seems to be the end."

L-707-83 Job saw it, said, "If a tree dies, it lives again. But man layeth down and giveth up the ghost, where is he? His sons come to honor him and he perceives it not. Oh, that Thou would hide me in the grave, keep me in the secret place till Thy wrath be passed." He said, "If a man dies shall he live again?"
Four thousand years before that, they looked for something beyond that grave. All the great things God give them, a home, a family and children, and a church, and everything, and prophets, and great men up to this time, but yet each one died and went to his grave. But here comes One and says, "In My Father's House is many mansions, and I'll go and prepare a place for you."
