<TITLE>14. Par 97-101</TITLE>L-97 Then after Moses come John. And after John, the dispensation come, he introduced Jesus. And when Jesus come to try to bring us grace, which was God in the Spirit, in the line of Spirit, manifested His love, "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son," and Jesus was so different and contrary to the law (See?), but it was a different dispensation, a different time.
And then when Jesus left, He spoke of this dispensation of the Holy Spirit, the Life inside, a Witness of Him of the resurrection. I got lots of Scriptures here, but I just haven't got time to get into them, I'll just brief them over. All right.
It's always been a fact and a--a fight, when one dispensation is changing from an old dispensation to a present-time message, it's always been a fight with the people. They--they... It's, although it's been always Scriptural. But during the time that God gives them a dispensation and something to live by, or something to do... Now we find out that immediately after that dispensation is given, the men of the earth try to find something to counteract that, and something to make a man-made affair of it.

L-99 After Noah had the ark, and then immediately after that, Nimrod, that renegade, he built a tower, and said, "If the floods would come, we'll just climb up and get above it." And then God come along with the law that just... See, that dispensation had lived its time out.
And when Jesus came also, after the law, the law spoke of Moses and the--spoke of the--the coming of Christ. But when He came, they was so set in the traditions of the fathers... They had their creeds; they had their fashions; they had their churches. They were settled down, so it was so hard for Jesus to try to shake that kingdom (that church) from a creed to believe Him. And yet the Scriptures especially spoke of this One all the way from the first dispensation of Eden, "His Seed shall bruise the serpent's head." Promised Jesus through each one of the dispensations, and when He come, they didn't recognize Him, because they were so bound in their creed. But yet it was the Scriptural truth.
Each messenger and its message foretold the other one to follow each time. Moses, the prophets foretold, Moses foretold of the coming of Jesus. Moses said, "The Lord your God shall raise up a Prophet like unto me." How many times have we been through that in our messages around the world, that the coming Messiah was to be a Prophet.

L-101 That's why the ill-famed woman, against all the ministers, she believed the message. The woman at Samaria, when Jesus was speaking to her, He said, "Bring Me a drink."
She said, "You have nothing to draw with. It's not customary for You to ask me, a Samaritan woman." And the conversation went on.
Then He said, "Go, get your husband and come here."
She said, "I have none."
Said, "That's right, you got five, and the one you're living with now is not yours."
She said, "Sir, I perceive that You are a Prophet. Now, we know that there's coming a change of dispensation. There's coming One Who's going to be anointed, that's called the Messiah, the Christ of God, and when He comes, He will be that Prophet." How much more that woman knowed than all the preachers of that day. Yes. And her in her condition (See?), she understood the Scripture. Yet a poor little woman, married with five husbands, and living with the sixth one, and yet she knew more about the Scriptures, because she took It just for Its face value. And she said, "When He comes, He'll be a Prophet."
What did Jesus say to her? "I am Him."
