<TITLE>27. Par 102-105</TITLE>L-102 Nathanael, that well-trained scholar we was talking about the other night, when he walked up there, said, "I'll go see for myself."
And when he come, He said, "Behold, a--an Israelite in whom there's no guile."
Said, "When did You know me, Rabbi?"
He said, "Before Philip called you, when you were under the tree, I saw you."
"Thou art the King of Israel. Thou art the Son of God." No uncertainty about that. He knowed exactly he was under the tree. Oh, yes. He never said, "Why, them Pharisees said that's Beelzebub." But not Zacchaeus. He knowed he was the one under the tree. No uncertain sound to Zacchaeus. His name's immortal tonight, and always will be because he was saved.

L-103 That little woman at the well, she had seen so much scruples about all their religions, and churches, and--and theology of that day till she was sick and tired of all of it. She didn't go to none of it. Don't know but what she was just as well off. Poor child was maybe, by bad parents, laid out on the street, and she become a prostitute. Maybe the poor little fellow didn't have...
Let me tell you, there's a lot of bad women. We know that. But you can't be a bad woman without being a bad man, you know. So there has to be somebody to make her bad. So... And sometimes them kids are turned out by a bad mammy, run out to barrooms and everything.

L-104 You talk about juvenile delinquency, I say it's parent delinquency. You talk about the ignorance of the Kentucky people, some of them old mammies out there... Let their daughters come home of a morning with lipstick all over their face, and hair all twisted up, and clothes half off of them, half...?... with a cigarette in their hand, they'd take a barrel slat, or one of them hickory saplings out there, and she'd know when she went out the next time. Then you say illiterate. They can teach this bunch of hoodlums how to raise children. That's... Oh, maybe I oughtn't to have said that. Well, no. I don't take it back. I said that when the Holy Spirit was anointing me. That's right, exactly right. Yes, sir. Today, huh... Oh, my.

L-105 That little woman, she wandered out to the well that morning, maybe her curls all hanging down. Maybe she'd been out all night. I don't know. She come out about eleven o'clock to get the water for the day. And when she looked over there and seen that Jew, that Jew said, "Go, get your husband."
She said, "I don't have any."
Said, "You're telling the truth. You've got five, and the one you're living with is not yours." My goodness.
Said, "Sir." No uncertain sound, nothing uncertain about it. "I perceive that You are a prophet. Now, I know that when the Messiah comes, and all of us down here in Sychar we're taught, we Samaritans, that when Messiah cometh He will do this. I'm wondering Who You are."
Jesus said, "I'm He." No uncertain sound. He said, "I'm He."
Somebody said He never confessed to be the Son of God. What about that? Said, "I'm He that speaks to you." Watch.
Brother, she didn't say, now, "Shall I go to school and learn some theology?" She run into the city and said, "Come, see a Man that told me the things I've done. Isn't that the very Messiah." Nothing uncertain about that. No sir. She knew. She said, "We're taught when the Messiah cometh that's what He will do."
