<TITLE>13. Par 123-132</TITLE>L-123   But, if the thing is put together right, there is the entire picture of the fall and regeneration. The whole picture of creation, and God's whole plan revealed right in Jesus Christ. Amen! That's the whole picture set together, every little crook and corner. It's just like... Now, I don't mean to be sacrilegious by this, but it's just like putting a jigsaw puzzle together.

L-124 That's why we got pictures today that looks horrible. Say, "We are believers," and the cow picking grass up in top of the tree. Don't work. That's when they say, "Yeah, He's every way, but just of a certain... He's the same yesterday, today, and forever, all but a certain thing." See? Then you ruin your picture.

L-125   The Bible said He is the same! Saint John 5, or Saint John 14:12, He said, "he," he, anybody. "He that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he do also."
"Well, that was for another age."

L-126 There you got your picture wrong again. You got a man fishing out in the desert, for fish, in a bunch of hot sand where there is no fish at. See? See, you've got to bring him back to where he's fishing, at Galilee, where there's plenty of fish, you see. See?

L-127 You--you got to make the picture look right. It's God's great picture. And there is only one way you'll see it, that when you see Jesus Christ. There is the entire Bible. He's the principle theme of the Bible.

L-128   Now you realize that any of these places here you could take a text, and it's just hard for a preacher to hold his peace. He look like he want to keep going with it, but you got to get back to what we're teaching on.

L-129 He is the principle theme of the Bible. He was in the prophets. He was in the Psalms. He was in the history of the Bible. The Bible is a prophetic Book. It's a historical Book. It's a Book of love. It's a Book of--of songs. It's a Book of Life. And in there you find Christ. He was in the prophets. He was in the Psalms. He was in the history. And He also, in the Bible, is the things that is to come. So, He was before and till after. What does that make Him then? "The same yesterday, today, and forever."

L-130   And you inject something in There, that doesn't make Him "the same yesterday, today, and forever," Brother Lee, where do you go to? You got an awful picture there. For, He was the history, see, and He is the Prophet. He is the Psalms. He is everything. And if you can't make Him everything, and the same, where, what's your picture look like? Do you see it? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] All right.

L-131   He is the thing! He was the prophets. He was in them. He was in the Psalms. He was in the history, and He is the things to come, "the same yesterday, today, and forever." Hebrew 13:8, if you're writing it down. He should be, then, He should be the principle, if that's what He is. And we believe it, don't we? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] Then, if He is that, then He should be the principle theme of our talking, of our thinking, of our singing, of our walks. ["Amen."] He should be the principle theme of our life. If He's the principle theme of the Bible, and the Bible is in us, then He should be the principle theme of everything that we do, say, or think; should be Christ. Is that right? ["Amen."] All right.

L-132   Since, we think this, since He has been made--made the Head of "all things," to us. The Colossians said so here. He is the Head of "all things," to us. For He was made... For us, which we are considered "all things." You say, "What about the sinner?" He was made to be the Judge of the sinner if he don't accept It. He was made the glory for the believer who does accept It. So there, thing, "all things was made by Him, and for Him."
