Question

Why did Jesus pass by the multitude at the pool of Bethesda and heal only one man?

Answer

You say why don’t I heal that little girl? If it was me, I would. See? Why’d He leave…Why’d He pass by that little spastic child, and those crippled, and lame, and halt, there at the pool of Bethesda, and moved right on by them, passed up, many of them standing there, the Bible said halt, lame, blin...

Question

Did Jesus know Lazarus would die when He left Lazarus' home?

Answer

Then I can see back there in them days, when Jesus went forth and demons screaming, signs a following, it got just about the time where our text begins now, and I want you to notice Him. There He was, and He went away from the home of Lazarus. And as soon as He left the home, sorrows and troubles co...

Question

Does God reveal everything to His prophets?

Answer

And watch that same prophet, after getting down to Dothan, did not see the…The Angel of the Lord never showed him about Syrians coming out and covering the city over, for God had another way for that. God don’t show His servants all things, but He shows His servants just the Word of knowledge as muc...

Question

Why was Jesus asleep in the boat during the storm?

Answer

There’s no need of me trying to explain these things friends. No matter how much I would try to explain them; I could never explain them to you. So you just try to understand (See?), and just believe me, that it’s—it’s something that just takes the life right out of you. One time I wondered how that...

Question

Why did Jesus heal a man with a thirty-eight-year infirmity but not the withered and afflicted?

Answer

Instead of that, going to a man that was just sick, and had lived an ordinary life with an infirmity for thirty-eight years. That looks strange, doesn’t it? You couldn’t hardly understand that. Now, I want you to remember that word, “couldn’t understand it…” if the Scriptures didn’t declare it later...

Question

Can an angel or a vision be seen by some people and not by others?

Answer

Last night I was wondering how there could be anyone left in the building that wasn’t healed. Now, it may not be visible. Angels of God and visions appear before people, and sometime it’s not for everybody. Is that right? Look at the Magis. They were the only ones that seen that Star. It passed by e...

Question

What did Jesus mean in John 5:19 when He said the Son can do nothing of Himself?

Answer

Now, the Jews questioned Him. He said, “Verily, verily…” Listen close now. Give me your attention. “Verily, verily, I say unto you, the Son can do nothing in Himself: but whatsoever things He sees the Father doing; that doeth the Son likewise. For what the Father does, He shows the Son.” Is that rig...

Question

Why did Jesus not come when He was sent for to pray for Lazarus?

Answer

Did you notice when Lazarus had died? Jesus, they sent for Him to come pray for Lazarus, He didn’t come, He just went on. Wonder why. He had a vision that Lazarus had to die. So when He went on, if you’ll notice the Scriptures close, He goes on, they sent again, He never came, and on. Then after He…...

Question

Why did Jesus pass by crippled people without healing them?

Answer

Jesus passed by the cripples and left them lay there. He said, “I can do nothing except the Father shows Me first.” Is that right? Saint John 5:19. “Verily I say unto you, the Son can do nothing in Himself but what He sees the Father doing.” See? It has to be showed first. Balaam, when he tried to c...

Question

Why did Jesus heal only one man out of a great multitude of sick people?

Answer

But notice. When Jesus passed by there, He saw that great multitude. Doesn’t it seem like for Him, with all the powers of God in Him…I believe that He could’ve healed every person there. Don’t you believe that tonight? I believe He could’ve done it. But do you believe He was a true prophet sent from...

Question

How did Jesus know, before He went to the grave, that He would raise Lazarus?

Answer

If you notice at the platform, how close I have to examine. One word within myself would be wrong. It must be perfect, for it’s God; and I have to let Him do it. And then you watch It, watch the expressions. I ask sometimes if He would show me certain things to do, I’ll do it. “But the Son can do no...

Question

Is there Scripture for a healing being foreseen before it happens?

Answer

Now, I haven’t…Now, to you who say, “Is that Scriptural?” All right, Saint John the 5th chapter: Jesus the Son of God passed by the pool of Bethesda, where great multitudes of people were laying afflicted, halt, lame, blind. You remember the story? And there was one man had an infirmity, not cripple...

Question

Why did Jesus heal only one man at the pool where so many sick people were lying?

Answer

When Jesus went unto the pool, where there was as many people laying there crippled as there is people probably in this building today, maybe more…He walked in amongst all those people and just picked out one man. He was led of God to do so. He told him, “Will thou be made whole?” He said, “Sir, I h...
