<TITLE>01. Par 1-7</TITLE>64-0417, Then Jesus Came And Called, Mckay Auditorium, Tampa ,FL, 86 min
L-1      Believe. Let us stand for just a moment now as we read the Word of the Lord. In Saint John, the 11th chapter, and beginning with the 18th verse.
Now Bethany was nigh unto Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off:
And many of the Jews came to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.
And Mary, as soon... or, Martha, as soon as she heard... Jesus was coming, went and met him: but Mary sat still in the house.
Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother... not died.
But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou will ask God, God will give it thee.
Jesus said unto her, Thy brother shall rise again.
Martha said unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day.
Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and... life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:
... whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?
She said unto him, Yea, Lord: I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, which should come into the world.
And when she had so said, she went her way, and called Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Master is come, and calleth for thee.

L-2   Let us bow our heads now for prayer.

L-3 Our Heavenly Father, as have assembled here again this evening for the purpose of serving You, reading Thy Word, taking a text, and believing that You will bring to us and reveal the context of the text. We pray, Lord, for each need that we have here tonight.

L-4 There may be some who doesn't know You. May they find You, tonight, as their Saviour and accept it so. May they be able, tonight, by something that's done, or said, that would bring Christ a real reality to them. Insomuch, that their entire life would be dedicated to Him and to His service. We thank You for the things that we have seen Him do and for the hope that we have of life beyond this shadow that we live now. Knowing this, that when He comes we shall be caught up to meet Him in the air. And with this, Lord, we pray that You'll instill this hope, this blessed hope, in everybody's heart, tonight. Those who have been on the way a long time and stood a lot of hard things, may, tonight, their faith be lifted up. Grant it, Lord, that they'll take a new view, tonight, and renew their vows and start new again.

L-5 Father, we pray for those who are sick and afflicted. May this be the night of their deliverance. Many, Lord, laying handkerchiefs up here on the platform. And we pray, Heavenly Father, as I lay hands upon these in the box. Now, we're taught, in the Bible, that, "They taken from the body of saint Paul handkerchiefs and aprons, and unclean spirits went out of the people, and diseases were healed." Now we realize that we're not saint Paul, but You still remain Jesus. And we pray, Lord, that You'll heal every one that these handkerchiefs represent. May they each be healed for Your Glory.
Break to us now the Bread of Life, from the Word, as we wait, in Jesus Christ's Name. Amen.
You may be seated.

L-6   It's good to be back here again tonight, and to be serving the Lord. Nice to see this bottom floor about packed out, tonight, so we are very grateful for your attendance. And being the first time ever being here, I think that's real well.

L-7 Now, doesn't matter how much we speak to, we speak the same thing. I've spoke in companies of just three or four, then I've spoke five hundred thousand at one time. Two hundred and fifty thousand, another time. And it don't matter what it is, what Christ sends to me, to listen. I speak the... I wouldn't change my subject one bit, if this was a million people sitting here, tonight, just the same. Cause, I'm only sowing seed, and It has to fall on the ground somewhere. And when that last seed has been brought in, there won't be any more. We know there might be...
