<TITLE>20. Par 235-247</TITLE>L-235   Job stood and looked. He seen his flesh, all corruption. He seen blood over him. He seen boils over him. His wife come. His church members left him, and accused him of being a secret sinner. His wife come and said, "You look miserable. Why don't you curse God and die the death?"

L-236 He said, "Thou speakest like a foolish woman. The Lord gave, the Lord taken away; blessed be the Name of the Lord."

L-237 About that time, when he stayed with the Word, then the lightnings begin to flash, the thunders roared, and the prophet looked towards the sky. And he said, "I know my Redeemer liveth. He will stand in the last days upon this earth. Though, after the skin worms has destroyed this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God, Whom I shall see."

L-238   Watch. The first, He's called "Redeemer"; the next, He's "God." "I know my Redeemer liveth. The last days, He will stand on the earth. Though, after the skin worms destroys this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God, Whom I shall see for myself. My eyes shall behold, and not another." When he was dying, and his body rottening, while he was in the flesh, he looked till he seen the resurrection, hallelujah, and knowed that he was included in it, because he was keeping God's Word. Look and live, my brother. Amen. He seen what God's purpose was, and he did it. God had a cause, to test Job.

L-239 He's had a cause, to test the people. Everything is done for a cause. He's doing the same thing now. He sends us signs and wonders amongst the people. He sends the Gospel Truth, and let them look over It, to some creed, deny the real Truth and take a creed; deny This and take that, when they know the Bible teach contrary to that. But He does it for a test. Then there's no excuse at the Day of the Judgment. Oh, my!

L-240   Look what's promised in the last days. In closing now, let me say this just before we close. Look what promised in the last days.

L-241 Look what He's already done in these last days. He's poured out the Holy Ghost upon His people, brought back the original Pentecost again, brought back the original baptism of the Holy Ghost; brought back the original water baptism, brought back everything, back to its original. Come right on down, and brought back the original evidence of Christ, by showing us visions and prophecies that never fail one time. Move right on down, everything just exactly the same, to show that it's beyond human mind. They could not do that. It's God.

L-242   Watch that great Pillar of Fire that led the children of Israel. Anybody, any Bible scholar, knows that that was the Angel of the Covenant, Jesus Christ.

L-243 Hebrews said, Hebrews 11th chapter said, that, "Moses forsook Egypt, esteeming the reproach of Christ greater treasures than that of Egypt." See? What was it? Christ in the wilderness.

L-244 In John 16 or... Beg your pardon. John 6, when they was taking the communion, or whatever it was, breaking the bread and having the great time there at the jubilee. Jesus said, "I'm the Bread of Life that come from God out of Heaven. He that eats My flesh has Eternal Life, and I'll raise him up the day of the--the last days." He knowed He would do it. He said He was the Bread of Life.

L-245 They said, "You make Yourself God. You make Yourself..." Said, "But, why, we know You're crazy, now." Mad means "crazy." "We know You're crazy. You're a Man not over fifty years old, and here You say You 'saw Abraham'? We know You are mad. You're out of Your mind. You're a religious fanatic."
He said, "Before Abraham was, I AM." Amen.

L-246 What was 'I AM'? That burning Light in that bush. Moses saw It. He watched It all the days of his life, and It led him right into the promised land.

L-247 That same Light came down and was standing there. And He said, "I AM before Abraham was. I AM that burning bush. I AM THAT I AM, that Angel of Light. I come from God, and I go to God."
