<TITLE>07. Par 73-85</TITLE>L-73   Now, notice, Jesus said that would come again. "As it was in the days of Sodom, so shall it be in the coming of the Son of man." Again the Spirit of God will come upon mortal, human flesh. That Man eat the meat of a calf, drinking the milk from the cow, and eat butter and bread, in human flesh; and Abraham said He was Elohim, God manifested in flesh. Jesus promised that God, before His coming, would be manifested in human flesh again. That's the Holy Spirit (there is only one God) manifesting Hisself, separating, again, Lot from Abraham.

L-74 Lot wanted the world. God sep-... tore up his world, and separated Abraham and Lot. Lot, being a type, again, of a carnal believer who didn't think these things were true, he just went on down in Sodom. And he--he didn't have the real spunk to stand out, as we'd call it, and call what was right "right," and wrong "wrong," so he went down.

L-75   All these believers, as we could go on for hours, all these were like a bunch of change out of your pocket, in God's hands. You pull out a bunch of change. There is pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters, half of dollars, dollar, all in coins. Now, that's what the world is, in God's hand. There is some people that just can have a penny's worth of it, and God can only use them in a penny way. That's all they can buy. Don't reject them. If they can't believe the real Truth, don't turn them down, don't kick them out and say they're not in It, because God uses pennies sometime.

L-76 Lot was just a penny, Abraham was a silver dollar, so it taken a hundred Lots to make an Abraham. And so will it take... A hundred carnal believers will never stand in the presence of a genuine Christian that's separated from the carnal things of the world, living in Christ Jesus, where the Word can flow through him.

L-77 He can only take a penny's worth; that's all he's got. So you see people that say, "I don't believe in healing. I don't believe in these things," just know it's a penny, but just let him alone. See? Just a penny's worth, and so that's all he can buy. Don't stop him; just let him alone. Remember, that's just all the farther he can go.
Joseph, he was separated from his brethren.

L-78   Yeah, I didn't mean that hardly in that way that I said it, see. I mean, if he just, "Well, I belong to this, and that's what we believe." It's just a penny, go ahead, see; just a penny.
Say, "Well, the Lord bless you, my brother."

L-79 See, he is copper; he can never be silver. That's it, so just let it go ahead. God can use him. Oh, He is using it. I'd rather see him down there in a church than to see a barroom standing there on the corner. Wouldn't you? Sure. So just let it alone. God can use it, anyhow; maybe not very much, but He'll use what He can use, as much as they'll let Him use.

L-80 So that's kind of a rude way to express anything, but I... Well, I hope you get the Truth that I mean in it, what--what it's meant. See?

L-81   He can't believe in discernment and the powers of God that's promised for this day.

L-82 Those Pharisees couldn't do it, either. They couldn't see Jesus being God. Oh, no. "You make yourself God; a man?"

L-83 One day He was standing there, after He had multiplied loaves of bread, and so forth, for them, and He said, "Lest you eat the--the bread of the Son of man's body, and drink His Blood, there is no Life in you."

L-84 Oh, I imagine, His congregation, they walked away from Him. "This Man expects us to be a cannibal, eat somebody's flesh? Oh, that's crazy!" Doctors and medical doctors, and so forth, said, "The man is insane. That's all there is. The priest is right. That man is crazy. Give us his body to eat?"

L-85 That's all He said, see, but the spiritual mind, maybe they could not understand It. Those disciples, they didn't know just exactly what It meant, but they believed It anyhow. Because, where did It come from? It come from the One they knowed to be the Son of God.
