<TITLE>05. Par 42-59</TITLE>L-42   Going, my wife, here not long ago, to a grocery store. I seen a strange thing in the summertime, in Indiana, a woman had on a dress. They don't wear them no more, you know. And so my wife said... I said, "Well, look at there. Wonder if the woman is a Christian?"

L-43 They said, "Well, all these women; I know some of them here, they sing in the choirs at churches." She said, "Why is it, Bill, that they do that?" I said, of course... "And--and our people doesn't do that."
I said, "Of course. We're of a different nation."
She said, "We're Americans, aren't we?"

L-44 I said, "Oh, no. We just camping here. We're not Americans." I said, "See, we are from Above."

L-45 The Holy Spirit came down, united our hearts with God, and we professed, like Abraham, "We're pilgrims and strangers." This is not our home. "We're seeking a city Whose builder and maker is God," coming from Above. Yes, we are sons and daughters of a King.

L-46   Now I'm going to bring a little thing that sounds funny, just for a few minutes, but I'm going to have a trial, a court trial here.

L-47 Can you hear me? How far back can you hear me, raise your hands. Well, fine. Back this way, can you hear me? Good. I'm talking as loud, almost, as I can.

L-48 I'm going to have a court trial, and the case, is, "The Word of God, promised, versus the world." Now we're going to set it like a court trial, for just a little bit, before you come through this prayer line. "The Word of God versus the world," now the case.

L-49 The cause for this indictment is a breech of promise, that of, "God's promises," they claim that, "God hasn't kept His promise."

L-50 The prosecuting attorney in this case is Satan, and he is the world's witness, because he is of the world.
The defendant in this case is Almighty God.
The defense witness of this case is the Holy Ghost.
We're going to call them to trial, just for a few minutes.

L-51 The prosecutor's witnesses, that he is bringing up to defend his case, is Mr. Unbelief, Mr. Skeptic, and Mr. Impatient.

L-52   We're going to give them a trial. Court is called to order now. The prosecutor calls his witness, Mr. Unbelief. He takes the stand, first.

L-53 Can you still hear me? Say, "Amen." [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] All right. Good. Now I can feel a little more relaxed.

L-54 Now, you understand, it's a case against God, that Mr. Unbelief and Mr. Skeptic and Mr. Impatience is calling God to a--to a trial, "because He don't keep His Word," they say. All right.

L-55 The prosecuting attorney in this case, he always represents state, so the prosecuting attorney in this state is Satan himself. And he's...
We're calling the trial.

L-56 All right, they call the first one to the witness stand, that's Mr. Unbeliever. He complains this, that, "All of God's promised Word is not true."

L-57 Now He is going to be tried for this. Listen close now. Don't miss it.

L-58 He claims that Mark 16, that I have just read, was ministered to him in a so-called Holy Ghost meeting where others claimed to be getting healed. And that was ministered to him, two years ago, and there is no difference in him yet, that, "These 'signs' does not follow the believer." He said he made this claim against It. All right, he sits down.

L-59   We call the next witness. That's Mr. Skeptic. He takes the Scripture of God's Word, of James 5:14. And he said he was in a place where they claimed that the elders was called, and he was anointed with oil and prayed over. And that was over a month ago, and there has been no change in him yet, so he knows that that's wrong. He is calling God, and indicting God, for it.
