<TITLE>16. Par 118-129</TITLE>L-118 Now is the Gentile's time. He never performed that one time to Gentiles. Search the Scriptures. Never. But He promised, in Luke 22, that He would do it just before the Coming.

L-119 But He sat down there, and here come a half Jew and Gentile out, a woman. And He said to her, "Woman, bring Me a drink."

L-120 And she said, "Why, you shouldn't ask that, so much. We are... There's a segregation here. You're a Jew, and--and I'm a Samaritan."

L-121 He said, "But if you knew Who you were talking to, you'd ask Me for a drink." What was He doing? Contacting her spirit. And as soon as He found what her trouble was, well, He told her to go get her husband. She said she didn't have any. He said, "That's right, you've had five."

L-122   Now, look, when the Pharisees seen Him do that. Right, that discrepancy right amongst the Word, what did they say? They said, "This Man is Beelzebub, a fortune-teller." See?

L-123 And Jesus said, "Whoever spoke that on the Holy Ghost when It come to do the same, would never be forgiven." There's your discrepancy. See? But He said He would forgive them then, because the Holy Spirit hadn't come; the Sacrifice, the Lamb hadn't died.

L-124 But then the woman didn't think that. The woman said, "Sir, I perceive that You are a prophet." They hadn't had a prophet for hundreds of years. Said, "I perceive You're a prophet. Now, we know that Messiah, which is called the Christ, when He comes, that's what He's going to do."

L-125 Well, if that's what He did, then He's the same yesterday, today. That's how He made Hisself known then, isn't it the same thing today? Has to be! Now, here is a woman and a man meets again. She's not that woman, I'm not that Man. But yet the same Holy Spirit is here, and made the promise that the works that He did, we'd do the same thing in the days that Son of man would be revealed.

L-126   Now, not knowing you (and you know that's true), we're total strangers, and you are standing here. There's some... May be something wrong with you, maybe there's not, I don't know. But if the Lord Jesus will reveal to me, by His Holy Spirit, what is your trouble, will you believe then that It is the Son of God, and not a human being? This is just a hull, this tabernacle that--that God uses, any who He has chosen. He--He does that by sovereign grace and election. So, but you believe. You will? [The woman says, "Amen"--Ed.]

L-127 How many in the audience will believe it? Here we both stand right here before the Light, that we've never met in this life, have no more idea who that woman is, what she is, where she come from, what she wants. I've never seen her in my life, no more than I ever seen that woman down there in my life. But, see, here's what I'm trying to get you to do: get that discrepancy away from you now, and believe the Word when the Word is made flesh right here among us. The Word becomes alive in our own flesh, that shows the Presence of God.

L-128   Now may He grant it to her. She's wanting a worthy cause. She's childless, she wants a baby. She's about forty years old. That's certainly not impossible.

L-129 They're setting right out there now, women who were barren all their life, and come to the platform like this, and the Lord give them children. Some of you raise your hand out there that know. See? See? I picked up a little darling girl the other day, Sunday, after I left here, Sunday afternoon; that her mother was barren, the Lord spoke. And the little girl, the sweetest little thing, is she here? Where she at? Yeah. Here she is, right here, setting right down here. The mother setting there. Here's the little girl, herself. See her? She was a spoken Word from God.
