<TITLE>42. Par 522-529</TITLE>L-522   That's what we're here for. How many of you need strength for the journey? God grant it to us! How many of you are sick in your body, wounded soldiers? Dozen, or more. You believe He's here, the invisible King? Things visible; invisible are made manifest by the visible. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever, only the corporal body. Now, if this is His Spirit that's preached this through me, He'll do the works that He did when He was here. Oh, how wonderful!
I am bound for the promised land,
I am bound for the promised land;
Oh, who will come and go with me?
I am bound for the promised land.
All over those wide extended plains
Shines one Eternal Day;
There God the Son forever reigns,
And scatters night away.
Oh, I am bound for the promised land,
I am bound for the promised land;
Oh, who will come and go with me?
I am bound for the promised land.

L-523   Five hundred walking into the river yonder, the first day the Angel of the Lord appeared visible, to vindicate, like He did on Mount Sinai, that I had met Him. I walked into the river, and hundreds singing that same song for the baptism. Here He come, descending, that same Pillar of Fire that you see in the picture there; descending down, right down here at the river, and said, "As John the Baptist was sent to forerun His first coming, this Message will forerun the second Coming." See? There you are, see.
Oh, who will come and go with me?
I am bound for the promised land.

L-524   That same Pillar of Fire is here with us. Are you aware of it? He has made some of us for one thing, and some another. If you'll, without one doubt, believe that He's in the midst of the building, I believe He'll prove Hisself to you. Will it satisfy you? If I don't get to every one... It's going on two o'clock, but if you... It's a little after one, rather. If you'll believe, let Him ascend down upon us! Where is our faith? See, you got to believe that. If you don't doubt it, one bit, it's going to work.

L-525 I--I recognize the Divine Presence of the Being of Christ, Who is the Word. And the Bible said, "The Word is... powerful than a two-edged sword, and It cuts to the marrow of the bone, and discerns the thoughts that--that's in the heart, revealing the secret of the heart."

L-526   Look. Why, I didn't know those things, years ago. And when I said it, not knowing it, look what He's done. He said, "Now you'll take the people by their hand, and, don't think nothing, just speak what attribute is told you. Say it's tumor, whatever it is." Then said, "It will come to pass that you won't have to do that." See? See? "It will discern the very thing that's in them." We've had all kinds of impersonations, we know that, almost to deceive the Elected if possible. Watch how the rest of the thing goes with the Word, then you'll know whether it's right or not. But, still, Jesus remains the same yesterday, today, and forever.

L-527   How many in here that's sick, and knows I don't know you? Raise up your hand, say, "I--I know you don't know me." Oh, it's just, I guess, everywhere. Only thing you have to do is just believe it.
Only believe, only believe,
All things are possible, only believe;
Only believe, only believe,
All things are possible, only believe.

L-528   Jesus said, "As it was in the days of Sodom, so shall it be when the Son of man will be revealed upon the earth in the last day. When the Son of man shall be revealed, or, reveal Himself in the last day." Now, not the former days, the middle days; the last day, see, He would reveal. And now we're in the last days. Sodom sets just exactly, everything, the messengers, just alike.

L-529 What happened to the--the little remnant was called out with Abraham's group? There was One come among them, in human flesh; represented in human flesh, eating with them, drinking with them, same food that they eat, everything. He stood among them, told the Message. Then He said, "I'm going to do this great thing."
