<TITLE>04. Par 41-53</TITLE>L-41 Their great revival started with healing campaigns. And so they got away from it, of course. The new group comes in, they, bunch of men gets together and divides It up the way they want to, and then there goes away from It, you see, get right back to that creed, like Pharisees and Sadducees of the time of the Lord Jesus.

L-42 But now, every minister is invited, Sunday afternoon, to come and be with me, and--and help me as we pray for the sick. Bring out your sick and afflicted.

L-43 Now, we're trying now to let people to find sinners that doesn't know our Lord, that doesn't realize that He is not dead. He is living. He, He is not dead. He is alive, forevermore. And He said, "Because I live, you live also." What a promise, and what a consolation, when we see the time nearing!

L-44 All real Christians believe that the second Coming of Christ is near. How far away, we don't know. Did you see Alaska having a couple more earthquakes today? One of them, as hard as the first one was, only didn't shake it down. You know, Jesus said them kind of things would take place just before His Coming.

L-45 And, remember, these things that you're seeing happening here, the Word predicted they would be here, just the same as He predicted the earthquake. So, together, why can't we just put our hearts together, and knit it in God's Word, and believe with all of our hearts? All right.

L-46 Now, last night, we was... I took a text of Abraham, when he called the name of the Lord that appeared to him up there at the sacrifice of his son, where he was going to. The name was called Jehovah-Jireh, which is, "the Lord shall provide for Himself a sacrifice."

L-47   Now, tonight, I have a few Scriptures and notes, or two, wrote down here, that I'd like to leave--leave with you. Now, just before we do, let's pray just a moment, again.

L-48 Father, we pray that You will take Thy Word... "Thy Word is Truth." And the Bible said, Jesus speaking, said, "The Word is a Seed that a sower sowed." Now we realize that if a seed is a good seed, it's germinatized. And if that seed has been carried out, its plan in--in God's will, then it leaves a germinatized seed. And when Jesus was on earth, He was that Vine. And the seed that He sowed was His Word, and we know that its germinatized by His Own Life.

L-49   And we know that a seed, when it falls in the right kind of ground; not upon rocks, with no root; nor in thorns and thistles, that would soon choke it out; but in good, rich, fertile faith. Every seed will bring forth of its kind.

L-50 And we know that every seed, or promise of God, will bring forth of its kind, what it promised, if it strikes the li-... right ground, the ground that's prepared, ready; all the--the rocks has been thrown out, and the roots, and the bitterness, and selfishness, and indifference, and jealousy, has all been grubbed out; that root of bitterness that springs up, that sometimes so spoils the thing that God is trying to do. We pray, God, that that won't be among us, but that the good Word will find good ground in these.

L-51 As we follow this great patriarch, Abraham, in the lesson tonight, may we find our position, knowing that we are children of Abraham, by faith in Christ. And, then, get glory to Thy Own Name and honor, for we ask it in Jesus Christ's Name. Amen.

L-52   We are going to kind of review back a little bit tonight, for the lesson of what we was speaking on last evening. That was, that, we have found Abraham beginning, in Genesis the 12th chapter. Really, his name was spoke in the 11th chapter, when his father came down from Babylon and they dwelt in--in Ur and this... the land of the Chaldeans.

L-53 And then we find that, also, that God called Abraham, just an ordinary man by the name of Abram. He wasn't Abraham yet. And, and Sarah, "Sarai," Sarah wasn't Sarah yet. So we find out, Sarai and Sarah was two different, was two different names. And Abram and Abraham was two different names.
