<TITLE>08. Par 77-87</TITLE>L-77 They broke in, to find out, Eternity. They say that John Glenn, the astronaut that went around, it never taken one second off of his life, even the speed that he was traveling, about seventeen hundred miles. See? So then, see, we broke into Eternity. We're an earth-bound people that knows just inches and so forth. When you break into that unknown, you--you can't fathom that. Our minds are not comprehensive. We, we couldn't. We couldn't fathom what it means to get into that, but we know that it's true.

L-78   And Einstein said, "There's only one sensible thing to say about the world. By faith we understand that God framed the world together." See?

L-79 And the world, standing there in space, it had to come from somewhere. The science says it's a piece of the sun. Then where did the sun come? See, you keep breaking it down, till finally you come to a place that you have to find out, it had to have a beginning. See? "God created the heavens and the earth," we're taught in the Bible. And how does it stand there in its space? It never moves. You ain't...

L-80 You can't take an instrument... I have wore, from my Finnish, my meetings overseas, and Switzerland, one of their best watches that was give me, while I was there. It's a really... I think, in American money, it costs a hundred-fifty, two hundred dollars, maybe more. And yet that watch will gain and lose, just in a few days. I took it to a jeweler. He said, "Well, we have nothing that keeps perfect." See?

L-81   But the world does, perfectly, at its time. They can tell the eclipse of the sun and the moon, many, many years apart, just to the minute. How it turns, and yet nothing holding it up.

L-82 Which is up and which is down? We don't know. Is the North Pole up, or the South Pole up? We're in space. That's a paradox, isn't it? It cannot be explained. Anything that--that cannot be explained like that, is simply a paradox. So we find out that it was a paradox for the world to--to be in space. All right.

L-83 And time and seasons, how does it cross its seasons just the same time? How that, summer and winter... How it leans, it's leaning backward. If it was up straight...

L-84   Now, we proved that, one time, it was up straight, as God said it was. Up, the British ice fields, they can blast five-hundred-foot through that ice, there is palms, ferns, that showed it was once a tropic. And now, see, it leans back. From the antediluvian destruction, it leaned it back. And I believe, the very thing that they throwed it out of its cycle then, is ready to throw it back in its cycle now.

L-85   Man destroys himself by his knowledge. See? He never... God destroys nothing. Man... And you... We can't. No matter what we--we can liquidate, we cannot annihilate. There's nothing. And even far as the closest we have to annihilation, but you can't annihilate. When fires are burning, that's gases breaking apart. It goes right back to its original condition again. You can't annihilate nothing. Some people get so guilty till they want to--to take their body and have it burned, and blow it to the seven winds of the seas. But that doesn't make any difference. Your... It isn't annihilated. You can't annihilate. God created it. You can't tear down... You can--you can pervert or carry on, or do other things, but you can't annihilate. God's the only One Who can annihilate. He's the creator. He's the only One has a right to do it.

L-86   How it stands in space! So much we could say to that, take hours upon it. But we find out here that Joshua, stopping the sun, now, that's a paradox.

L-87 I remember the time that my old father, he had no education, and I... He could just hardly sign his name. But he used to say to me, he said, "You know, I never could believe that--that, but what the sun turns, to the world."
And I said, "Well, I don't know, dad."
