<TITLE>02. Par 9-17</TITLE>L-9 And--and if you don't have a church, well, I'm sure that Brother Vick would welcome you to his church, or any of these other men around here. If you haven't had Christian baptism yet, consult them. And don't stop. Just keep on going, just keep pressing on.

L-10   We never know, never even know how many is healed. And you pastors, brethren, just remember, when the meeting is over, maybe weeks, somebody come up to you, like a little lady, and say, "You know, I used to have a lady's trouble. It isn't there no more." Somebody, "I--I, you know, all at once, I just didn't want no more cigarettes. It just all left me." See? They, they're healed, so many, you can't call them. See, it's just everywhere. And I've never had a meeting yet but what that was the results afterwards, where the Lord healed the people and they wasn't conscious of it right then, but they--they got all right. And first thing you know, they was, they just get up and walk away, and it's all over. But maybe they don't understand it right then, but, it's, by-and-by it's over.

L-11   I remember, in Finland, long ago. I guess there is Finnish people here. There was a little boy had been raised from the dead. You probably read--read the book of it. The news went in, all into Russia. But I saw it in a vision before it happened, two years, and told it across the nation.

L-12 I remember that little Finnish girl, that night standing out there in the hall, and she had one leg was about six or eight inches shorter than the other one. She had a big built up shoe, with a--a strap around her, and one in her toe, a little hook. And she had the--the belt over her shoulder, and come across this way and down into the toe of her shoe. She had two crutches. And poor little ragged-looking fellow. And every time she would go to move, she'd have to lift that foot up with her shoulder, that strap; and then shove it out like that, and set it down, and then put the crutch down. And we had to...

L-13 We was at what they call (now the Finnish brother, sister here, I--I don't pronounce this right) Messuhalli, and it run all the alphabets. And they would let about twenty thousand come in, or whatever it was; and then had them go out, and then let me speak to another twenty thousand.

L-14   And the little boy had been raised from the dead, at Kuopio, had been killed by an automobile. And, oh, my! They don't broadcast rock-and-roll and things there, it's just news and things, so this got on the news. And they come all the way from Russia, up in there.

L-15 And, I seen, that night. That was right after the war, about five years, I guess, after the war. And I seen Russian soldiers and Finnish soldiers, with their arms around one another, loving each another, patting each other on the back. Anything will make a Russian pat a Finn, will settle wars, that takes the love of Jesus Christ to do that.

L-16   But those great big communistic soldiers standing there! We passed by a group of little Finnish soldiers, little fellows had never shaved yet, just slickfaced, with them big boots on, coming down the street, watching the people. They was just crowded on both sides, for city blocks. And those soldiers standing at attention, the tears run off their cheeks. They said, "We'll receive a God that can raise the dead." See? They're human beings like we are.

L-17 But what it is, thing that professes Christianity and doesn't produce any results, they lay it aside. They want some reality. See, that's the reason communism has raised up, because the let down of the church. The church is guilty of communism, because it was the one who let down. And now just think, only one percent of Russia now is communist, one percent. Ninety-nine percent of the people are still Christian. What they need is a real on Fire, with a prophet with THUS SAITH THE LORD. That, see, that would drive the communistic force into the sea. What we need, is, they need the real Christianity.
