<TITLE>19. Par 210-222</TITLE>L-210 And I know that I heard Brother Fred Sothmann, one of our trustees of the church in Indiana, say, "Amen," a while ago. But My Heavenly Father knows I can't even see the man. It's kind of hard to see from here. I don't even know where he's at.
I see no one I know, none of you.

L-211 But, and all in this prayer line, you in the prayer line, all of you that doesn't know me, or you know that I don't know you, raise up your hand, that you know. All right. Whole group of them. I don't know them. They don't know me. You don't know me, and I don't know you.

L-212   Now, the thing of it is now, is Jesus Christ alive? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] That's what we want to know. See? And now we can't even... There's many things that we could say. "Yes, I feel Him in my heart."

L-213 The people say, "Something else." And they say many things. They say, "That's psychology."

L-214 But we want to know, is He truly alive, to Scripturally identify Himself the same yesterday, today, and forever? That's what we want to know.

L-215 Now, here is the Word of God, and I hold It in my hand. There's not a person that I can see, outside of my son now.

L-216 And Brother Tony setting down here, but the president of the Full Gospel Business Men's Fellowship, is the only two people that I see, that I know.

L-217 The little singers are setting out there at the end, I--I think they're very fine. I believe this is their mother setting right here. I'm not sure. Or--or, is that right? Am I wrong on it? Well, I'm wrong there. So, I--I don't know. I seen a lady playing. Is this her at the piano? Well, I seen a lady, other night, playing up there, that looked a whole lot like this lady here, that I thought was the--the mother. Of the--of the... There she is. Yes, sir. That's right. Well, now, you'll have to say, they look a whole lot alike. That's right. But, that, see, I didn't even know that lady.

L-218   Now, therefore, I stand here with ministers around me, behind me, and out front, Christian people. And here we stand here. And I claim that the Bible evidence of Jesus Christ is the prophetic sign. The Bible says so. And He's the same yesterday, today, and forever. And promised that, if we'd believe on Him, the works that He did we would do also. Now, is that true?

L-219 Now, if that is the truth, every sinner ought to find hisself here at the altar, a place here, and ask forgiveness of sin. Every sick person ought to accept your healing right where you're at.

L-220 Because, there's no virtue in me. I'm a man. Here is your pastor, is just the same as I. We're just servants of Christ. But, we're here. Now, they are--they are preachers. I'm not very much of a preacher. You know that, by now. But I--I... They are ministers, teachers, and so forth. I'm not a minister, or a preacher, rather, because I have no education, or, and no schooling. And I have no degrees of... and what... No B.A.'s or D.D's, or... I--I just don't have it. And I--I--I... But the Lord gave me a--a gift, because I love Him. And He--He lets me work for Him in this way.

L-221   And if He will manifest Himself here; that He is here; and this very Holy Spirit that you receive, proves that it is Him. Pentecost is the only thing is going to prove Christianity. You can't prove it by science. You can't prove it by nothing but by a pentecostal experience. You Baptists know that, and you Methodists and Presbyterians, and whatever you are.
You know it takes pentecostal experience to prove God. And that's to each individual. It doesn't prove the organization. It proves the individual.

L-222 Like Jesus said to Peter, when he said, "Thou art the Christ, the Son of God." He said, "Flesh and blood never revealed this to you, but My Father which is in Heaven. Upon this rock I'll build My church, and the gates of hell can never tear it down, see, cannot prevail against it."
Now, where is it? This lady.
