<TITLE>20. Par 84-87</TITLE>L-84 Now, how many in here doesn't have a prayer card, and you want God to heal you? Just raise up your hand. All right. Looks like it's practically everywhere, back in there.
Now, look. There was a little woman one time. She didn't... she didn't have a prayer card, but she believed in Him. And she said, "If I can just touch the border of His garment, I'll be made well." Is that right? Well, now, and she touched Him.
Now, remember, He didn't know what her trouble was, but He said, "Who touched Me? Who touched Me?
And Peter rebuked Him, said, "'Who touched Me?' Well, everybody's touching You."
He said, "But I perceive that virtue..." That's strength. "I got weak." He said, "Virtue's gone from Me. Who touched Me?"
And finally He looked around over the audience till He found the little woman that touched Him. She might be standing way back or over here. And He told her about her blood issue and said her faith had saved her. How many knows that story? All right. Now. Listen close now. Keep it in the Scripture.

L-85 If He is the same yesterday, today, and forever, then the Bible says... These clergymen, your pastors here will... Doesn't the Bible say He's a High Priest right now that can be touched by the feeling of our infirmities? Is that right? Then how would He act? If He's the same High Priest, He'd act the same way. Is that right? Now, how many believes that? He'd act the same way. Then you touch Him with the feeling of your infirmities.
Say, "I... Lord, I believe You, and I want You to--to heal me. I know that man standing there don't know me, but let me touch Your garment. Father God, have mercy upon me. Now, he told me that You was the same, and You're the Spirit that's here, the One we don't see. But I believe that I'm a believer, and I love You, and let me touch Your garment. Then You speak back through our brother like You did through Your Son. And --and then I--I... It'll--it'll confirm it to me that You're the same Lord Jesus."
Now wouldn't that be sweet if He did that? Now, you believe it, and see if He won't do it. You just believe it.

L-86 Now, the first man coming... This is a man, now, a man probably younger than I. I don't know him, never seen him in my life. He's just a man. I suppose we're strangers to one another. And now, that the audience might know that we're strangers to one another, just so we hold our... Just raise up your hand just so, see that we are strange to one another.
Now, I've never seen him as far as I know. He might've seen me somewhere in meetings. If he'd been in other meetings, or something, he might've seen me. But to say to know him, I don't. I don't know nothing about him. But God does know him. Now, here's two people meeting for the first time in life.

L-87 And now, if that man was sick, and anything I could do to help him, I--I sure would do it. I'd--I help him. I'd do everything I could to help him. And if I could heal him, I'd certainly do it right quick.
But healing doesn't lay in me. Healing is something that's already been done. "By His stripes we were healed." Every sin was forgiven when Jesus died at the cross. Every sinner was forgiven. If it wouldn't, God would destroy the whole world now. It's the Blood of Jesus Christ like a bumper, that holds the world together right now. But someday that Blood's going to be taken away.
And then, if you die in your sins and don't accept that pardon, you stand before God a sinner. See? But as far as your sins, they're already forgiven you; but you have to accept it. And healing has already been done. "By His stripes," Peter said, "we were (past tense) healed." Now, you've got to accept your healing.
