<TITLE>02. Par 12-23</TITLE>L-12   I never like to announce anything you speak on ahead of time, but one night in the service, or one day, I want to speak on the subject of: Who Is This Melchisedec? Because, it's a--a subject that I think we're living in the time when these revelations, of which has been the question down through the age, of, "Who is this Fellow?" And I believe that God has the answer, Who He was. Some said, "a priesthood," some said, "a king," some... But there's got...

L-13 As long as there's a question, there has got to be a answer to that question, which is right. Cannot be a question without first being an answer.

L-14   Now, we trusting that God will give us a blessing tonight out of His Word, as we read It.

L-15 And you've had... Billy told me to tell you that you've sure had fine cooperation with the peoples here that's been in the parking system, the police and everything. Keep it up; that's very, very good.

L-16 We hope to see the time, maybe in the near future, when maybe we could bring the tent here to the city and put it up out here in the ballpark, where we could stay for some length of time, maybe for three or four weeks, revival, constantly. And here we just barely get to know each other, and then we have to say good-bye and we go again. But I'd like to come and stay an extensive trip, one time where you could stay so we don't have to close out in a night or two, but just stay and teach, day and night, day and night, on and on. Maybe somebody go home and feed the chickens, milk the cows, and come back next week and continue on with the service. I--I like that. So the Lord be with you.

L-17   Now, before I leave, perhaps Sunday morning or Sunday night, or sometime, one of these services, I know you're all waiting to hear the Message on the Truth about Marriage And Divorce, which is one of the great problems of the day. And I'm just as sure as I'm standing here, I believe that the correct answer is in the Word of God, and I believe that that's what I promised to come back for.

L-18 And I suppose, knowingly, as far as I know, I want to have another service here in Jeffersonville, on Easter Sunday, and we'll... for sunrise service, and then Easter Sunday. So we'll announce it ahead and try maybe to get the auditorium, if possible, or somewhere, for Sunday, maybe come Saturday and Sunday. Have to fly in and back out, because it's near the time... I have to check it, first, with the schedule I have, and one of my--my--my itinerary in California. And then, immediately after that, I've got to go down in to--to Africa. So keep in touch and pray for us.

L-19   Now, tonight, I want to call your attention to a portion of God's Word, found in the 4th chapter of Saint Luke. The 4th chapter and the 16th verse, it will begin, Jesus speaking.
... This day is this Word fulfilled in your ears.

L-20 Now we want to draw, from That, a conclusion of how dynamic is the Word of God! Now, we all can figure out the mechanics, but it takes the Dynamics to make It work.

L-21 We can figure out what the mechanics of a machine, automobile, but then it takes the dynamics to make the wheels go to operating and moving.

L-22 Now, Jesus had returned to--to Nazareth, where He was brought up. On down in the Scriptures here, we find that they said, "We heard You did such-and-such over in Capernaum. Now let us see You do it here in Your Own country."

L-23 Jesus said, "A--a prophet is not without honor except in his own country." And, course, that's where you're brought up at, and where people know you. And there He had a--a--a bad name, to begin with, by Him being born without an earthly father. They called Him "an illegitimate child," that Mary was actually pregnant before she married, officially, Joseph. But, that isn't so, we know it isn't so.
