<TITLE>22. Par 208-219</TITLE>L-208   There was someone going to call me, some day here not long ago, wanted to debate with me about the--the church age, that, "God was in His holy church," and things like that. And I found out it was some woman preacher, and I just forgot about it. See, if it had been some man that was going to be all right, it'd a-been different. But, so, but what's the use of going plumb over into another country there, when I've got to leave a meeting here to do it, you see? So I just let them alone. The blind leads the blind, they--they all fall in the ditch.

L-209   So, so now in this age, when the old denominational and traditional veil has been rent, from the Word of God, so It can be manifested! You see what I mean? The tradition says, "All those things are past." Let It soak a little bit. "The things are past." But, in this last day, that traditional veil has been rent apart, and here stands the Pillar of Fire. See? Here He is, manifesting the Word for this day. The veil is rent.
Now, the world, still they don't believe It. No matter what, they don't see It. They don't see It. It wasn't sent to them.

L-210 Remember, the Son of God was not revealed to Sodom; two messengers was. That's right.

L-211 But, this, God Himself in human flesh was revealed to Abraham, the Elected. And watch what He done to reveal Himself. And now Abraham knew, when He knew what was in Sarah's thought behind Him, he said, called Him, "Elohim! Thy servant..."

L-212   Notice now, so it can be manifested. The Word has had a veil over It all these years, to the people, "It can't be done."

L-213 You remember the sermon. I preached the morning when I left here the first time, about Goliath and David? I said, "Look at the challenger out there, saying that 'the days of miracles is past.'"
Watch them tapes as they come down, watch each one, how It's come in more plainer and plainer; if you have ears to hear, see, eyes to see.
What? I said, "There stands that great ecclesiastical world out there, that's in this scientific age, that it cannot be done." But I said, "God..." In that Light, 'fore It was ever taken, but once; never was taken then. It was down on the river there; they never took the picture of It. See? I said, "He told me that it would be done; He would make a call and it would sweep the nations."

L-214 And even to Doctor Davis, said, "You, with a grammar school education, passed into the seventh grade, will be praying for kings and monarchs, and will start a revival that will sweep the nations?"
I said, "That's what He said."

L-215 And it's been done. See? See, it's been done. That's the thing of it, is, He don't need no interpretation. He's done it. See, He's already done it, that interprets itself, see, calling His Elected, see, from--from all walks of life. Now it's made manifest.

L-216   I said that David stood out there, a little, bitty, scrawny fellow with his back all bowed in, a slingshot in his hand. And, why, Saul looked at him, the head of the ministerial association, said, "Why, you, you're not even trained!" He said, "Let me see if I can give you a Ph.D. or some." Put this armor on him, it... He found out it didn't fit a man of God.

L-217 Said, "Take the thing off of me." Said, "I don't know nothing about that." Said, "Let me go in the way that I know, what I fought the lion with, what I fought the bear with." He was kind of a woodsman. He said, "Let me go in this way."

L-218 And this old Goliath said, "Do you send a dog out to fight me?" Said, "I'll pick you on the end of my spear and hang your carcass up there and let the birds eat it."

L-219 David said, "You meet me as a Philistine, and an armor and a spear, and I'll meet you in the Name of the Lord God of Israel." Watch the prophet, David, said, "Today I'll cut your head from your shoulder." Amen! Oh, my! He knowed what he had, whom he had believed, and was fully persuaded He was able to keep that which he committed to Him. See? So it happened anyhow.
