<TITLE>18. Par 201-206</TITLE>L-201   Now He said, "That will return again, and the Son of man," which that was, that was the Son of man right there. Well, he called Him Elohim, "Lord God." Elohim, anybody knows that's right, Elohim is the Lord God. "In the beginning Elohim created heavens and earth," the all-sufficient One. The Son of man made flesh, there He was standing there in flesh at that time, like a theophany, standing there discerning what Sarah was saying in the tent behind Him. He promised. Watch. The Royal Seed of Abraham is promised to see that same thing.

L-202 But notice Lot, he had a messenger down there, too, two of them went down there. One of them went down, and another one went down with him, and they preached and called the people to flee from the wrath that was to come.

L-203   Positionally, the world has never sit in that estate, from that day that Jesus made the promise, until right now. I want to ask any historian that might be in the building, or if you hear even on this tape, and hear it at any time, please write me. I've studied history now for some thirty years, the Bible history, and there never has been a person that I've ever seen in all the history of the church, through the seven church ages. That we're now in Laodicea, and we know that.

L-204 Never has there been a messenger, that ever went to the entire church, with his name ending with h-a-m, till now. G-r-a-h-a-m, Billy Graham. There has been Moody's, Finney, Sankey, Knox, Luther, and so forth, but never a h-a-m, "father to nations." Now remember, he is G-r-a-h-am, six letters. But A-b-r-a-h-a-m is seven letters. Notice, they're down there, Billy Graham, going into the--the all parts of the world, and calling out of Sodom, "Come out, flee the wrath that is to come." There is no man that I know of, in the field, that has got a hold of God, on that word of justification, like Billy Graham does. He can present it. He's not such a theologian... I guess he's a theologian, but he's not just a powerful teacher. But God is with him. That man will stand there with like a Sunday school lesson, hold those people spellbound. He's God's servant of the hour. To who? The church natural, that's in Sodom.

L-205 But remember, there was one church spiritual, that wasn't in that denominational outfit, either. Called-out group, and they received a message, also, and a messenger. And what was it? Discerning the thoughts that was in the heart. God always proves His Word.

L-206   Let's pray. Dear Heavenly Father, this crucial moment, where decisions must be made, time is ticking on by, we don't know what hour our Lord may come. And as we see these prophecies that's been made by Him, through Your prophets down through the ages, is now being unfolded. O God, how I thank You for this, that even able-bodied man, able man in--in theology, that can stand up against the wiles of the world and the unbelievers, and on these panels, and beyond a shadow of doubt stand there bold and gallant, knowing where they're standing and prove that Word to be true, by the Scriptures. And then we who are waiting on Your Coming, Lord, believing these other things that's been prophesied that would take place, to stand and enjoy seeing You walk right among us and perform the very thing that You said would come to pass, proving Your Word to be right. Eternal God, Your sick children are sitting here.
