<TITLE>19. Par 181-193</TITLE>L-181 I pray, God, that You'll let every one of those who has that drawing in their heart, like the little lady did, to find God, that tonight there will be something real happen, that they'll see, and serve Him. "For a greater than Solomon is here." We ask in Jesus' Name. Amen.

L-182   Now reverently, silently, just before we come to the altar. Please, no one move around. Just be real reverent a moment. This is a solemn hour, solemn moment. Decisions are being made. Many raised their hands. I believe you were deeply sincere in that, when you said that.

L-183 Now, you've heard about the Bible, you've heard about Jesus, you've heard He was the Son of God. You've been taught that He raised again, and you are taught that He is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

L-184   Now is this Holy Spirit that we talk about, is that Jesus Christ? Sure, It is. See, He is God; known as God, the Holy Ghost. It ain't another God; it's the same God. Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, is not three Gods; it's three attributes of the same God, see, just the same God in three forms. You see, in otherwise, three offices, like, you know; when He served as Father, and then as Son. It's God condescending, coming from One Who cannot be touched (even to touch the mountain, had to die), till we could handle Him in flesh.

L-185 And now He is in you. He sanctified you with His Blood, that He might live in you. "At that day, you'll know I am in the Father, the Father in Me; I in you, and you in Me." See? It's God above us, God with us, God in us. See?

L-186   And that's Christ, tonight, the Holy Spirit. He is the same. And you are... He is the vine, and you're the branches. Have faith in Him. And if He will identify Himself, tonight, being among us!

L-187 Now if he stood here with scars, that would be a human being, that's flesh. Anybody can impersonate that; a human being can disfigure himself. Or, maybe, we don't know what Jesus looked like, we just got the--the--the artists' idea, the psychology of it, what He looked like; Hofmann had one kind, Sallman another, and how many more!
But how would you know Him? It would be of His Life.

L-188 Because, if a man stood here with thorn prints in his hand, and whatever more, that would be an imposter; 'cause, when Jesus Himself comes, every eye shall see Him, every knee shall bow, and every tongue confess it. Certainly.

L-189   But His Spirit is here, see. And if we can just let our minds drift into His. "Let the mind that was in Christ be in you." He is the Word, and the Bible said, "The Word of God." Which, how many knows that Jesus was the Word? In the Bible, Hebrews 4, and the Bible said, "It's sharper than a two-edged sword, and a Discerner of the thoughts of the heart." Now, that's what was in Solomon, (the Word, God) reason he could discern their thought. That was in Jesus, see. That's what's here now, same Thing.

L-190 Now you out there. I ain't going to call no prayer line, 'cause I'm going to make an altar call. There might be some here that's never been in one of the meetings. I don't see a person in the building, that I--that I know.

L-191   Someone was telling me that it was about thirty last night, or better, called. Do you realize that one time a woman touched His garment, and He turned around, and the same thing taken place, and--and virtue went out of Him, Him the Son of God? But He said, "Greater than this shall you do, for I go to the Father."

L-192 Now you just believe and have faith, each one of you, all around here, in these cots, stretchers, wherever you are. Believe! Don't think you're hopeless.

L-193   Now if I could heal you, I would do it, but I cannot heal you. I could lay hands upon you, and I intend to do that, to everyone having them cards. And they give out cards every day. So I intend to do that, but that is, that, that's just to signify that I believe with you.
