<TITLE>17. Par 189-200</TITLE>L-189 There is always them three classes. Ham, Shem, Japheth's people. Also, believers, make-believers, and unbelievers. They're everywhere, and we--we find them in every group. And, everywhere, you find them. And that groups is still here. You have to divide that. You can take it right through the Scripture, just dovetails itself right in.

L-190 Listen to this. Look at where we're sitting, positionally and prophetically, tonight. Now, every one of us know that the world is in a Sodomite condition.

L-191 We know all the prophecies of Israel, is in its homeland. If you want to know nationally where we are standing, watch Israel, where it's at.

L-192 If you want to know what condition the church is, watch the way women act. She's the church. See her, immoral, indecent; watch, look where the church is at. Just watch it, see, see, just watch women. You see where, how your women degrade and become so polluted, that's the way your church is, see, the type.

L-193 Watch where Israel is, you see the time figure where we're at. See, just watch those signs and wonders. If you--if you, or if your eyes is open, see where we're at.

L-194   Now watch positionally where we're setting, the world in a Sodom condition. Now notice, "as it was." Now notice, there was somebody, in that day, watching for a coming promised son. Abraham and Sarah, they were watching for a promised son in Abraham's group. They was not in Sodom. But just at the moment, the last chapter of the event, just before the promised son came, there were three man came down from Heaven, an Angel... two Angels and God. And they came down and talked with Abraham, under the oak. Is that right? [Congregation says, "Amen!"--Ed.] And two of them went down into Sodom and cried out against the sins of the city. And it was just before the burning of the Gentile world, at that time. All Sodom perished right then. Just a few was pulled out, Lot and his two daughters. His wife never even made it; she turned back. How I could just like to have time to show you that right now, where that church is standing at that position. I want you to notice now.

L-195   And one Man stayed behind, that talked to Abraham, and he done a sign to Abraham. And, watch, Abraham had seen God in many great signs. We believe that, don't we? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] Just before the coming son. But before the son was manifested, there was a sign he was given.

L-196 Because, the Son, the true Son, was to be the Son of God, through Abraham's faith, see, was Jesus. We being Abraham's seed, dead in Christ, we are Abraham's seed.

L-197   Notice now just before that taken place, this son to come. Now, this One that stayed and talked to Abraham, had His back turned to the tent, and He said, "Abraham." Now, just a day before that, he was Abram. Now He said, "Abraham, where is thy wife, Sarah?" not Sarra, S-a-r-r-a. S-a-r-a-h, princess. "Where is thy wife, Sarah?"
Said, "She is in the tent behind You."

L-198 He said, "I'm going to visit you, see, according to My promise that I made you." In other words, "The time of life, Sarah will start in her ordinary time of life again."

L-199 And Sarah, being old, a hundred years old now, in the tent, laughed up her sleeve. See, she smiled to herself, said, "How could that Man be right? See, me an old woman, my lord Abraham out there, also old, family affair had been done away with for years." Said, "How can I ever have pleasure again with my lord? He being old, and me old, past bearing, milk veins gone, every... 'She is dried up.' How could we ever have pleasure again?"

L-200 And that Man, with His back turned to the tent, said, "Why did Sarah laugh, saying, 'How can these things be?'" What was that? Discernment, a prophetic! See? See? That's what he seen.
