<TITLE>25. Par 274-285</TITLE>L-274   Now I want you, reach right across the table, and lay your hand on another believer. Put your hand right across the table, lay it on another believer. Are we believers? What did He say? "These signs shall follow them that believe."

L-275 Court, have you made up your mind? Say, "Amen." [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] "My verdict has been reached." Is that right, "Amen"? ["Amen."] That the Word of God is true, "Amen"? ["Amen."] Mark 16 is true, "Amen"? ["Amen."] Then, "These signs shall follow them that believe." They'll have to recover. ["Amen."] He said so, did He not? ["Amen."]

L-276 Now, the way you pray at church, you pray for the person you got your hands on. They're praying for you. "And these signs shall follow them that believe." What will happen? Your action, from this hour on, will prove what your true verdict is.

L-277 Now bow your head, every one of you. Now pray for the person that you got your hands on.

L-278   Jesus Christ of Nazareth, I call this to Your attention again. These men and women has claimed, by their testimony, that they are believers. They have stood, and they are laying their hands on one another. Lord, we believe Your Word, that in this great day of education, this great day of--of--of going on, of ethics and--and all the educational systems, yet, in the midst of all of it, Your Word remains true just the same.

L-279 And we've called witnesses in this court this afternoon, Lord, to give You a fair trial; not a mock trial, not a mock like Herod give You, or--or--or as one of the others. We're giving You a fair trial here, and proving. And Your people has made up their mind, that the Word of God in 1964, this hour that we're now living, that You're just as much God as You ever was. And every Word that You promised is the Truth. And they've got their hands laying on one another, as believers. They are praying for one another.

L-280 And You said, "These signs shall follow them that believe. If they lay their hands on the sick, they shall recover." You never said when. You said, "They shall recover." Now, them being...

L-281   As I being the moderator, and these people being the jury, also the judge, they have give witness to this, Lord, by moving to one another's hands, and praying for one another.

L-282 Now, their actions hereafter will certainly prove what their verdict is. May there never be one complain among them, anymore, of ever being sick of this sickness, or whatever bothers them now. May they know that God promised He would do it.

L-283 Sometimes He lingers, as He did in the days of Noah, He did in the days of Moses, He did in all days. But He--He never told the Pentecostal people, "Go up to the city of Jerusalem, in twenty-four hours I'll give you the Holy Ghost." He said, "Tarry there until you're endued with power from on High." He never said, "One day, two days, ten days." He said, "Stay until you're endued with power." Lord, they stayed until the evidence spoke back through them, that it was the Holy Ghost of God.

L-284 Now, may these people, who has their hands upon one another, who stands, this court this afternoon, in the Presence of God, in the Presence of His Word as I've read It. And we testified to this, that we believe that He keeps His Word. And may each one be healed, in the Name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

L-285   Now, all you that believe that, from this hour, that a believer that stood to their feet as a believer, and you a believer, that you've testified and give witness before this court this afternoon that you believe that He's just and He keeps His Word. No matter how long it tarries, it's got to happen. Do you believe it? Raise your hand. [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] Do you accept it? ["Amen."] God bless you. I believe it with all my heart.
Now let us bow our heads just a moment.
