<TITLE>06. Par 28-32</TITLE>L-28 Now, if you notice, when He went to the grave where Lazarus was... Now, He'd already... He knew exactly what was going to happen. I'm sure we all believe that. He knew, 'cause He said He did nothing till the Father showed Him, and that's the reason He didn't go. That's the reason He said, "I'm--I'm glad I wasn't there for your sake," 'cause they'd been asking Him to pray for him, when He already knew by vision that He wasn't to pray for him. He was to raise him from the dead. See? And He said, "I go wake him."
But you remember when He stood at the grave He said, "Thou has already... But for these sake I said this," (You see?), for they--that for an example.
Then He called Lazarus from the grave, a man that'd been dead four days. He called him back to life again, and he stood up on his feet and lived. There wasn't one thing said there about Him getting weak, or having any physical results from it. Why? It was the Father using His own gift. God had just automatically told Him.

L-29 But passing through a crowd of people one day, where a little woman touched the border of His garment... A little woman in the time of menopause was having floods of blood. And so she touched His garment. And He stopped and said, "Who touched Me? I perceive that I have gotten weak." See, that was the woman using God's gift. See? He was God's gift. The greatest gift was ever give to the world was when God gave His Son. We all admit that. See? And see, God was using His gift.

L-30 It's just like this: We're all... There's a carnival in town. And us little southerners, you know, didn't have any money, and so we--we want to see this show. It's in a big board fence. And Brother Williams here, say he's short and strong, sturdy. And I'm a great big, tall, thin fellow. And so, perhaps, maybe he could pack water to the elephants. He's strong. I couldn't do it: too high up from the ground. See? I couldn't pack the water he did, 'cause he's built low and strong. Now, he can't help being like that; neither can I help being the way I am.
And that's the way each one of our ministries. See? We can't help being what we are. God has set in the church... See? God did it by sovereign grace.

L-31 Well, now, we're all wondering what's just beyond that curtain over there. That's what we all are doing today. What is it? What's beyond? We've come... Like the king of England when it was called Angel Land... When Saint Nicolous come up there, and he baptized the--the king of England in the Name of the Lord. When he set by the fireplace that night and a little sparrow come in from the dark, and flew in, flew around, flew back out, and Saint Nicolous said to him, said, "Where did he come from, and where did he go?" See? And that got the king. So he baptized the king: started Christianity in England.
Now, the thought of, "Where did he come from?" A place that he knows... His mind can't grasp it. And then, he closes his eyes, and he goes back into that place. He's intelligent here; he knows. And he knows he come from somewhere, and he knows he's going somewhere, but he don't know where. Now, that's what we're all trying to find. Now, each one of us is messengers of that land.

L-32 Now, we're standing here this morning, and we look all around. There's no place we can get under. But finally I look, and there's a knothole up here way up high. I say, "Brother Wilson..."
"I'll never make it, Brother Branham. I'm built too close to the ground. I--I could never make it."
But I'm built a little different. I can get it if I'll jump up, like way high, and just get a hold of it with my fingers, and pull up, and look. We're wondering what's on the other side. Now, that's a rude way of putting it, but I--I hope you understand it. That's the position this morning as we stand together. See? You have something to do; I have something to do.
