<TITLE>15. Par 58-61</TITLE>L-58 Now, was that Jesus yesterday? That's how He's making Himself known to the Jews?
Now, there were those great, high, scholarly men standing around there, with big turbans on, turned around collars, you know, and so forth. They said... Well, they had to give an answer to their congregation; there it was done. So they said, "This man is Beelzebub." That's a devil, fortuneteller. See?
And He said... doing that through Beelzebub, a devil... And Jesus said, "I forgive you for that. But someday the Holy Spirit's going to come to do the same thing. And to speak one word against It will never be forgiven." That's right.

L-59 Now, there is three [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.] races of people. You might not want to believe it, but there is. If we believe the Bible, they all sprang from Ham, Shem, and Japheth, Noah's children. Now, watch.
When Peter had the keys to the Kingdom, he let... He preached at Pentecost, the Jews, they received the Holy Ghost, and what was there. And Philip went down to preach to the Samaritans, only they hadn't received the Holy Ghost yet. And Peter came down and laid hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost. And then, at the house of Cornelius (the Gentiles), Peter went up there, and was sent by a vision up there. And while he yet spake, the Holy Ghost fell on them. And then all the races had it (See?), the three races. That was Jews, Gentile, and Samaritan.

L-60 Now, the Gentile, we Anglo-Saxon, we wasn't looking for no Messiah. We were worshipping idols, a club on our back, and heathens. But in our people... But Messiah only comes and makes Himself known to those who are looking for Messiah. He never pushes His way on anybody. You must want Him. And so He said... He came... (Now, we'll take it a little later, 'cause we don't want our time to get away. We got just a few minutes left.)
Notice. When He came, He made Hisself known to the Jews by being a Messiah, by showing that He was the prophet that Moses rose up, or that Moses spoke of, rather, that He was the Messiah, because He did the sign of the Messiah. And they knew that was Messiah. He perceived their thoughts. That's the Word, sharper than a two-edged sword, a discerner of the thoughts of the heart. Is that right? And He was the Word, and here He is, discerning their thoughts.

L-61 Then one day He was going down to Jericho. That's right straight down from Jerusalem. Instead of going there, He had need go by Samaria. Watch. The Samaritans was looking for a Messiah too. So He came to a city called Sychar, and He sent the disciples away to buy food. And while they were gone, a little woman came out there, probably a pretty little woman. Maybe the child was turned on the street by parents, and let her go any way, and about like today.
They talk about juvenile delinquency. It's parent delinquency. It's exactly what it is. Maybe that child had the same thing, her mother let her do anything. She turned out to be a woman of ill-fame, and she couldn't come out...
