<TITLE>05. Par 40-48</TITLE>L-40 I said, "Well, you just have it right now, because that's what it's going to be."

L-41   When we got down to Brother Eddie, I said to Brother Eddie... We tied the horses off, they're scared of a bear. And, oh, my, they'd a-had to smell it. We couldn't skin him out, it was too late; had to come back the next day. And then we broke up the string about ten times, and horses running everywhere. So then when we got down there, he said... Went and got the tape measure out of his saddle bag, said, "Blaine."

L-42 I said to Brother Eddie, I said, "Watch that little hand now, according..." I thought it might have been Billy Paul, little bitty hand hold the tape measure around the horn. I said, "Watch that little hand," punched Brother Eddie. We stepped back. He put it right up like that, exactly on the nose, forty-two inches. See, just exactly. Jesus never fails! That Word will never fail as long as it comes from God.

L-43   I just spotted in our midst, Brother and Sister Jackson from South Africa. I guess they had been introduced. And--and have you, Brother Jackson? This morning, stand up, you and Sister Jackson. I'd just like for them to see. My brother, Eddie, here is an old hunting partner from South Africa, too, way down. The Lord bless you, Brother Jackson and Sister Jackson, so glad to have you here with us. And all of the ministers in the building raise up your hand, all that's in the ministry. Well, that's fine and dandy, good. The Lord bless you. We're glad to have you all here. I'm going to have a prayer line in a few minutes, so I--I don't... I wish I could have you all to stand up and come up and preach for me. We're so glad to have you, every one of you.

L-44   When, I think of your loyalty, and--and coming across the nation, and so forth, to hear me speak about that lovely Lord Jesus, your confidence that you have that He hears my prayers. I was talking just a few moments ago on private interview to a certain member of this church, not over forty-five minutes ago, brokenhearted mother. And just as I started to say something to the woman, (I don't know whether she'd want me to say who she was or not), there came that same Light that you see in that picture. It was all over, she went happy. We're so glad, today, in this shifting age that we're living in, where you can hardly put confidence in anything, we have a Kingdom that cannot shift, cannot move. The Unmovable! Not the rock of Gibraltar, but our faith can rest solemnly upon the Rock of Ages, upon Jesus Christ, the unmovable Rock of salvation.

L-45   I want to thank the sister that brought the little triune box with a Bible in it for my wife that's here. She had made a covenant to the Lord about this little box. She had cherished it. It's got some... like pictures of old times on it. And she asked the Lord... She had cherished the box a little too much, perhaps. Just an ordinary little box in the shape of a pyramid. And she brought it with a Bible to my wife. Thank you, sister. Every one of your little gifts and things that you give Billy Paul and those, they get to me. I'm grateful for everything. God be with you.

L-46   Don't forget now, next Sunday morning. As soon as service is over today, write out your question. If you can't, bring it next Sunday morning. I'll come a little early, then let them bring it to the room, so I can have time to give it a Scriptural background. And we'll answer the questions next Sunday morning, the Lord willing.

L-47 Now, there's many handkerchiefs laying here. And I push them back, just in order to get my--my notes down here, and my... also my Bible, so, or my Bible and my notes, rather, so that I can have a little room. But I'm... I pray for each one.

L-48   I'll scripture my notes down, I have just a short time. I won't keep you like I did the last time I was here, around four hours. I made myself a promise, if I taped anymore like that, I'd tape them by myself here, or something other, so I wouldn't have to hold you so long.
