<TITLE>15. Par 163-174</TITLE>L-163   Somebody watch now. Get down here, Billy, some of you, right quick, 'cause we haven't got time now. We just... and don't take the time. Sometimes they're deaf and can't hear, and, or maybe can't get up, or something. If they are, why, we...

L-164 Number one, two, three, four, five. All right, come forward here, if you will. There is one, two, three, four... That's right. Pardon me, sir. Six, seven, eight, nine, ten, let them stand now. Six, seven, eight, somebody now, eight, nine, ten. Eight, nine... All right. One, two, three, four, five... seven, eight, nine, ten. All right, ten to fifteen, stand up; in B's, well, that's all the cards was out. Fifteen, all right, fifteen to twenty, stand up. One to twenty, in prayer cards, take your place over here. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, nineteen. That's it. Twenty to twenty-five.

L-165   How many doesn't have a prayer card? You still believe Him. While they're coming, taking their place, while them twenty-five is, first twenty-five is coming, let me ask you. The Bible said, in the Book of Hebrews, that "Jesus Christ is our High Priest." Do you believe that? [Congretation says, "Amen."Ed.] "One that can be touched by the feeling of our infirmities." Are we going to set, in this day, dull; and see our great High Priest make Hisself known among us, and then set like dumb driven cattle? No, sir. Let us be up and doing, with a heart for any strife. Be not like dumb driven cattle. Be a hero! You people look this way and believe. Look in the Scripture, what He promised. All right.
We won't take any time, we'll start right in the prayer line.
Let's pray again.

L-166   Lord Jesus, it's in Your hands now. I am in Your hands. Lord, take the Word that You said, "like it was in the days of Sodom," one that I referred to tonight. You said, in Saint John 14:12, when You was talking to Your disciples about going away, You said, "He that believeth in Me, the works that I do shall He do also."

L-167 The Bible said that, "God, in sundry times and divers manners spake to the prophets, or, spake to the fathers through the prophets; in this last days through His Son, Jesus Christ." And He is the Word. We know that the prophets came, the Spirit come upon them and made that Word live for that generation; cursed the kings, brought in judgment, brought out righteous, saved the lost; the prophets that the Word come to.

L-168   Now in this last day, Lord, You promised. You said, "As it was in the days of Sodom," while Abraham sitting there in the heat of the day, the little, called-out Church. We look down across the world today, Father, we see Sodom exactly, Gentile's perverted, lukewarm. And we see these three angels appearing before Abraham.

L-169 Two of them went down to the lukewarm church, Lot, to try to call them out. Two went down there, a modern Billy Graham, to call them out; no miracles, only blinded their eyes. Preaching the Gospel does do that.

L-170 But there was One stayed up here to Abraham's group, signifying the elected, called out, that wasn't in Sodom; was born, out of Sodom, the true Church, the Abraham's Seed of today. And when this Man, that's talked to them, said, "Where is Sarah, your wife?"
Said, "She is in the tent behind You."

L-171 And He said, "I'm going to visit you according to the time of life." And she laughed.

L-172 He said, "Why did she laugh?" Discerned what she was saying and thinking in her, with His back turned to the tent where she was at.

L-173   Jesus of Nazareth, the Son of God, has told us in His Word, "As it was in that day, so will it be in the coming of the Son of man."

L-174 And it's a very strange thing, Father, that there's never been a reformer, in all the ages, that's went down into Sodom, with a name ending "h-a-m," until today. Your servant, Billy Graham, down in Sodom doing his work.
