<TITLE>10. Par 98-111</TITLE>L-98 In the days of Noah, remember, it had never rained upon the earth. There had been no such a thing as rain. The world stood up, straight, just equal with the sun. It was disbelief and disobedience that throwed it out of its cater, makes it lean back, and cause the hot and cold air to bring up the vapor from the seas, and make rain. It had never rained upon the earth. And here comes a man out, saying that it's going to rain. Strange thing, but it was the Word of the Lord. Oh, I can hear science...

L-99   You say, "Well, now, how do you know they had science?" They built the pyramids in those days. We couldn't build them today. No. We haven't the material. We haven't the stuff to build them with, and we have no machinery to lift those boulders up there. It's still a mystery, to the world. They built it.

L-100 Jesus said, "As it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be in the coming of the Son of man. As it was in that day, so will it be in the coming of the Son of man."

L-101   And, brethren, for a little thing that I might squeeze in here just a moment. Peter quoted it, in the First Peter, he said, "Wherein eight souls were saved by water." Eight souls! What's an Ecumenical Council of tens of millions? See, that doesn't save. It's the Word. God saves. "Eight souls were saved by water, in the days of Noah."
Look what was saved in the days of Lot.

L-102 Look what ended in the journey through the wilderness; two, Joshua and Caleb. See?

L-103 "As it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be in the coming of the Son of man."

L-104 A great scientific age! See? And, no doubt, they could shoot the skies and say, with the radar, and say, "There is no water up there. Where is it coming from?"

L-105 God said, "It will be there." That was good enough. And Noah believed it, and he saved his household.

L-106   Remember, God tries His people who believes His Word. Where God is, there is always paradox, 'cause He does things that's incredible to the human thinking. Did you know that? We all know that. Incredible to the human thinking! And He tries those humans that are predicting this paradox. He gives them trials.

L-107 Never does He omit or change His way. God never changes His system. Do you know that, brethren? Sure, you do. He never changes His system. He always keeps it going in continuity, the way He started.

L-108 He never dealt with a world, only under preaching, with one man, Noah. He never had four to go down and deliver them, or an organization, in the days of Moses. He never had two on the earth at the same time. Each one of us different from one another, our features, our make-up. God just gets a hold... All He needs is one person that He can get in control; that's His example. He did it by Moses. He did it always.

L-109 When Elijah and Elisha was on earth, they both couldn't stay the same time. One was taken, the other one got his mantle upon him.

L-110   When John came upon the earth, He was the manifested Word of God for that hour. We know that. He was God's manifested Word. Because why? Isaiah said, "There would be a voice of one crying in the wilderness." Malachi, the last prophet, said, "Behold, I send My messenger before My face, to prepare the way before the people." Now, that was not Malachi 4; that was Malachi 3. John was Elijah of Malachi 3, not Malachi 4.

L-111 Because, when Malachi 4, when that prophecy comes forth, the earth is to be burnt with a fervent heat, and the righteous walk out in the Millennium, up over the ashes. And it never happened in the days of John.
