<TITLE>17. Par 207-220</TITLE>L-207 And Lot is down in Sodom, and they're enjoying the pleasures of the world. Yet, he is Pastor Lot, was probably had him a nice little congregation down there. Whatever he did, the Bible said, "The wickedness and sins of the--of the time vexed his righteous soul." So he must have had like a lot of modern Lots today, but he knowed he couldn't say nothing about it. So then notice, there he was.

L-208   But Abraham, after He had been revealed to him, now, Elohim was Who had been talking to him. Now he is setting under the oak, and here comes three man, walking like human beings. Watch the effect of the revelation, of Who God was, had upon Abraham, what it did to him. After his name was changed from Abram to Abraham, he seen three Man coming, and he called the three, One, "my Lord." Three of them, being One. Not so with number six, Lot; he seen two coming, and he said, "my lords." Abraham's vision and revelation showed him that He was the All-Sufficient Elohim. His Seed is to receive the same thing.

L-209 Notice how He revealed Himself, how He made Hisself known, whether he was right or not. Notice, to the true believing, what sign He did. What did He happen, to make him know that that was Elohim?

L-210 Now, he said, "my Lord." It's capital L-o-r-d. Any scholar, you know it; any scholar knows that's Elohim, the All-Sufficient One, Elohim.
A man said to me, one time, "You don't believe that was God?"

L-211   I said, "I sure do. Abraham said It was God. He talked to Him; he should know." Yeah.

L-212 "Oh," he said, "you mean God standing there eating that flesh of that calf, and--and drinking the milk from the cow, and eating corn bread, ever what you want to call it there?"

L-213 I said, "He did it. Why, you just don't know our God." Well, my, He could just... Why, He just reach over...

L-214 We're made out of sixteen elements; petroleum, cosmic light, and potash, and calcium, and so forth, just sixteen elements. He just caught it together, and breathed into it, and walked down in the earth. I'm so glad He's that sort of a Father. Though the skin worms destroys this body, yet He'll call you. He promised He'll do it. He is Elohim. Jerked another handful, and said, "Come here, Woodworm," or whatever it was, the Angels, "and come down. Let's go down and look at Sodom, see what's going on."

L-215   And Abraham, after the revelation, he seen it and he knowed that there was one God. And he seen it, and he said, "My Lord, come aside, sit down, let me wash Your feet." Now, he never said lord. And, watch, it's in the--it's in the capital there. Anyone knows it. I got the Emphatic Diaglott. See, it's capital L-o-r-d, "Lord," Elohim, the All-Sufficient One. Said, "Let me fetch a little water and wash Your feet, and give You a morsel of bread, then You can go on Your way."

L-216   Say, I'm getting too late here. I'd better hurry. I--I wanted to get over here, and I don't know when I'm going to be able to. Just bear with me just a little bit longer, will you? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.]

L-217   Notice, Elohim, the All-Sufficient One, God. And He said... Watch what He did.

L-218 Now, two of Them begin, they kept looking down towards--towards Sodom.

L-219 And He said, "You think I'll keep this a secret from Abraham?" He does nothing till He reveals it to His prophets. See, He makes them know it. And He said, "I'm not going to keep this, seeing he's--he's blessed of God and he's going to inherit the earth, and so forth. His seed is going to be, otherwise, going to be father of many nations. I won't keep it from him. I'm going to let him know." And so He said, begin to reveal to him.

L-220   And He said, "Abraham," not Abram. "Abraham, where is thy wife, S-a-r-a-h?" How did He know that? Well, just a day before that, he was Abram, day or two before that. And she was Sarai, and now she is Sarah. And he is Abraham. Said, "Abraham, where is your wife, Sarah?"
Abraham said, "She is in the tent, behind You."
