<TITLE>12. Par 109-120</TITLE>L-109   But we find now, the water supply gets low. And in my country where I live in Tucson, everything out there has got a sticker on it. Every--everything you look at has got a sticker, and because it's so dry. Now, if it was here in this country, and could grow, it'd have a real soft leaf. That sticker is a leaf rolled up, so tight and so sharp, there is not an instrument could be ground like it. No instrument could be ground like a jumping cactus, 'cause it's got a beard on it, a little hook, all the way down to the end. And still you couldn't grind an instrument like that, but nature has roled it that. And it'll jump right on you. You don't have to get--get into it; it gets on you.

L-110 And that's the way with sin. You don't have to get into it; it gets on you. It'll jump to you. Don't get around it. Stay away from unbelief! But we're living in that time.

L-111 So they had seen Him do so many great things, and they could talk about it. But when the time of trouble set in, it was all forgotten.

L-112   Now just think about the things that we've seen Him do, with the infallible proof of the identification of His Word, and know that the--that the great Holy Spirit here in the last days is the Messenger of the hour. He is the One Who is proving to us, and making every promise that He promised to do, every sign and every work, and every Word to come to pass just as He said He would do.

L-113 And it's still looked down. If it was accepted in the big high ranks, I would get away from it. It couldn't be God and be accepted up there. No, sir. No, indeed, it will never be, if it was accepted. But because It's down in this way, that's the reason I believe It. See? That's where it comes to. That's where it's promised to.

L-114   And now we see everything just exactly in line, and knowing that we're in the last days, and what's happened? Trouble set in.

L-115 And all that we've seen Him do! How He straightened up our homes. How He would make father and mother unite again. You've seen that, husband and wife come back together. He has healed your sick. Laying there with cancers, when many of you has brought them in bottles and jugs and pans. And doctors has testified, signed statements; I got piles of them, and put a box full. And even five cases, witnessed, of the raising of the dead, after being dead for hours and hour. Well, from... The longest one I knowed of, was from nine o'clock one morning, till eleven that night, about. See?

L-116   No, I beg your pardon. A little baby over there, that the mother had carried it all night in her arms. It died one afternoon, she carried it all night in her arms, come to the meeting down there in California. And I was taking out that afternoon. Had died the afternoon before that, and she drove all night, got there, couldn't get around the place. And she layed a cold little form in my arms, of a dead baby that had died the day before that. And standing, holding that little baby, and just offered prayer. His little body got warm. He turned over and looked, and I handed it back to its mother. True. That's right.

L-117   Now, but then when we see those things and have them thoroughly examined, and identified certainly, then why do we get scared when trouble comes in?

L-118 They were looking for... They had done so much testifying about what had been done, they forgot Who was with them. They had forgotten then, 'cause trouble was in.

L-119 Like now, we got troubles that we can't remedy.

L-120 They tried their sails, and the wind was too hard, it blew them off. They tried their oars, and the waves was so great it broke, broke their oars. Then, they, their little ship was let drive. They probably tied the keel down, or the--or the rudder. And when they did, just had to let it drive just any way it would go, and it dashing, splashing.
