<TITLE>10. Par 102-114</TITLE>L-102 But, see, your motive and your objective depends on who you are and what business. What your... What? That's where the church misses it, so far. They get worked up in an emotion, and, first thing you know, in enthusiasm, you don't stop to check it back Here again. Check There, for sure, then it's THUS SAITH THE LORD. See whether it's right.

L-103   Joshua had a commission to go over and to take that land, and God caused a great paradox. Even science can prove, today, the scar is still in the sky, where that absolutely happened. I heard in Chicago, not long ago, a scientist talking, that was showing it on a little chart, where it happened.

L-104   Now we find out, again, Moses was in the line of duty, too. And there was the Red Sea.

L-105 Did you see that rashal article that some of them people are trying to make now, that Moses went through a--a bunch of reeds, a sea of reeds? Wasn't that horrible? Just trying... The devil inspiring those people to take away the Truth of the Word. How could the waters... And then did the reeds drown up Pharaoh then when he come? It's crazy. See?

L-106 Then we find out that Moses had a commission to bring those people out of Egypt, to that mountain. And there it was, in the line of duty. And Moses begin to cry unto God, when he saw the Pillar of Fire hanging up here. And there come Pharaoh's chariots. And he cried. The--the Pillar of Fire come down, was light to them, and darkness to them. And God said, "Why you crying to Me? I commissioned you to do it. Speak and go forward." Oh, my!

L-107   The trouble of it is, today, the churches speak, look like, say, "What did Moody say? What did Sankey say?"

L-108 Speak and say what God said. Let's go forward, not look back. Go this a way.

L-109 It's hard on these, turning corners. Church don't want to believe that, you see. They're always referring back from where their educational standpoint. Course, that's a school, in itself. See? They learn that through book learning. We know That through experience, of trusting God, see, and knowing that He does do this.

L-110 It was a paradox, that God opened up that Dead Sea and did that great thing.

L-111   Noah, in his time. Remember, Noah preached in an intellectual... to an intellectual world like we're list-... preaching to now, a day when they were farther advanced in science than we are now. We could never build a pyramid. There's no way for us to do it. We haven't got the machinery to do it with. Some of them--them... If you was ever there, why, them--them boulders weighed tons, hundreds of tons, way up in the air. We have no machinery to lift it up there. Nothing at all to do it with, no power that would lift it up there. They did it.

L-112   I remember in school, we had a debate on that. I took the--the side to say that they had some secret. They didn't know... And my opponent, he took the side to say that, why, they got enough men around it, and they made a--a level of dirt like this, and then they rolled it up. I said... I--I working in a section gang, I said, "Why, we can't... You take a box car with wheels, and them greased, and put them on the railroad track, and you can't put enough men along there to push that box car, and it empty. That's right. You just get one layer of men, and then the next man is--is pushing against that man. See? You couldn't move it if you had to.

L-113   They had the secret. They knowed how to do it. They had a greater, a greater instrument. That pyramid set so perfectly in the center of the earth, pointing, that there's not a... There's--there's not a shadow around it, no matter where the sun is. It's never got a shadow around it. See? It's a--it's a perfect thing that they did. And their instruments was far beyond what we have now.

L-114 And Noah preached in that great intellectual age. And Jesus said, "As it was in the days of Noah," another great intellectual age. See?
