<TITLE>17. Par 178-188</TITLE>L-178 She said, "As He went down to the grave of Lazarus, in Saint John the 11th chapter," said, "the Bible said He went down there to the grave of Lazarus."
Said, "Yes, ma'am. I know where you're reading."

L-179 She said, "Then the Bible said, 'On His road down there, that He wept.'"
I said, "That's right."
She said, "Well, how could He be Divine, and then weep?"

L-180   I said, "Well, you fail to see what He was. He was both Man and God." See? I said, "He was a Man while He was weeping. That's right. But when He stood by the grave of that man had been dead, four days, and said, 'Lazarus, come forth.' and a man that'd been dead, four days, raised to life and come out of the grave, that was more than a man." Right.

L-181 I said, "Truly, He was a Man when He come down from the mountain that night, hunger, and looked all over a--a fig tree, to find something to eat. He was a Man when He was hungry. But when He took five biscuits and two fishes, and fed five thousand people, that was more than a man." Right. It's true.

L-182 And I said, "He was a man when He was laying in the back of that boat, tired, where the waves didn't even up... didn't even wake Him, seem to wake Him up. He was a Man. No doubt that ten thousand devils of the sea swore they'd drown Him that night. See? Now, He was a Man laying there, tired. But when once called on the scene, amen, He put His foot up on the rail of the boat, looked up and said, 'Peace,' looked down at the waves and said, 'Be still,' and the winds and the waves obeyed Him. Amen. That was more than a man." Yes, sir.

L-183 He was a Man at the cross, when He cried for a drink of water. He was a man crying, "I thirst." But on Easter morning, when He broke the seals of death, hell, and the grave, and ascended up, He was more than a Man. That was God in the Man. That's right.

L-184 And that same One lives in us, tonight, as the Spirit of the Holy Ghost. Yes, sir.

L-185   People today say, "How could I believe that He is the same yesterday, today, and forever?" Remember, He promised, in the Book of--of Hebrews, that, "He was the same yesterday, today, and forever."

L-186 He promised, also, in the--the Book of Saint John, the 14th chapter of Saint John, and the 12th verse, He said, "He that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he do also. The things that I live, that the Father lives in Me, as Me being the Son of God; as I adopt you, My Spirit will be in you and do the same things." Certainly. That's only natural.

L-187 Again, He said, "Lo, I'm with you always, even till the end of the world." Matthew 28, 28:22, or 28:20, it is. "Lo, I with you always, even to the end of the earth. I am with you. A little while," He said again, "and the world seeth Me no more, yet ye shall see Me. For I..." I is another personal pronoun. See? "I will be with you, even in you, to the end of the world. The works that I do shall you do also." There you are. That's exactly how you would know it. Oh, again, "I will never leave you nor forsake you."
You say, "How can that be? How can it be proven?"

L-188 John 14:12, see, "The works that I do shall you do also." He is now waiting to be called on the scene. He's waiting at this hour right now, to prove exactly what I said about Him, to be so right now. If it isn't, then This is wrong and I'm a false witness. He's ready to be called on the scene right now, to do the same things He did.
