<TITLE>11. Par 100-114</TITLE>L-100 He said, "Before Philip called you, when you were under the tree, I saw you." That was identification of the characteristics of the anointed God.

L-101 Said, "Rabbi, You are the Son of God!" What was it? His characteristics identified Him. He knowed by the Scripture that that was that anointed Man, God anointed in flesh. God was in Christ, reconciling the world to Himself. He said, "Rabbi, You are the Son of God. You're the King of Israel."

L-102 Jesus said, "Because I said that, you believe Me? You'll see greater than this."

L-103   Now, there was those who stood by, didn't believe That. They said, "This Man is Beelzebub, He's a fortuneteller."

L-104 Jesus said, "I forgive you for that. But when the Holy Ghost is come to do the same thing, one word against It will never be forgiven in this world or the world to come."

L-105 See, the atonement wasn't made yet. See, there couldn't be, you can't have... You can't be cast into hell before you come to judgment. This nation wouldn't do that, God won't either. See, you're in a place, waiting in chains of prison until you receive judgment. And, you see, He could not send them away, because the atonement wasn't made yet.

L-106 But after His death, burial, and the Token came forth from the Blood, the Holy Ghost, then, to speak against That, it's an unpardonable sin. Just one word is all you have to say against It, then there's never forgiveness nowhere. One word against It, see, what a great thing it is.

L-107 Now, so then we find out again, this identified Him as the anointed Messiah. God in Christ, the Atonement for the last days, Christ making the atonement for the last days. Now, to Nathanael, he--he--he believed It and recognized Him.

L-108   There's a little woman come out to the well one time up at Sychar, a city of--of Samaria. Jesus had need to go by there when He was on His road down, right down the hill from Jerusalem, right into Jericho, but He went around over by Samaria. Said He had "need to go," the Father led Him over there. When He goes over there, He sent the disciples away. And sat down, wondering, I guess, what it was.

L-109 Now remember, St. John 5:19, Jesus said, "Verily I say unto you, the Son can do nothing in Himself, but what He sees the Father doing." Now remember, He never did one miracle, not when He heard it, while He "seen" it. "The Son does nothing until He sees the Father doing it first."

L-110 See, that showed what He was, that Prophet, God-Prophet. More than a Prophet, He was God! All that the prophets was, was in Him, plus. The prophets just had a portion of the Word. He had all the Word, He was the Word in Its fulness. But notice, "God in sundry times spoke in divers manners, through little portions. In this last day, the fulness of the Word has come in His Son Christ Jesus, God made flesh among us."

L-111   This little woman, ill-famed, we call her, sometimes, a prostitute. Maybe the child had been turned out on the street. Sometimes like now, it ain't altogether juvenile delinquents, it's parent delinquents, let the little lady get out and act like that. Maybe a beautiful little woman, she walked up there to get a bucket of water, about eleven o'clock.

L-112 Now remember, if you was ever in the orient, they haven't changed one bit, it's still the same customs. The women go out, the virgins go early to the well and get their water, a prostitute or an ill-famed cannot go with them. They won't mix together.

L-113 She had to come out after the rest of them got through. She come, maybe weary, maybe she had that new boy friend, her husband that night. She come out, had this waterpot, she set it down. Put it, the windle down, to let it down, she heard a Man say, "Bring Me a drink."

L-114 She looked over and she seen a middle-aged Man standing there, kind of gray in His beard. He was only about thirty years old, but the Bible said He looked fifty. "Thou art a man not over fifty years old, and say You seen Abraham?"
