degenerates who almost bere of their you
as anxious for them you for the beautifully dessed
THE STRONG TO BEAR THE BURDENS OF THE WEAK
An my brothers and sisters it is the poor downrod
den the weak the oppressed the weary and the suffering
who need the help of the strong the vigorous and the
full.
know is thing for man to stand and talk when
ne is strong and WE'LL and another thing when disease
reached Tor his vtas and his strength gone. All tell
you what we need of the milk of human kindness
When you get into sickroom and the fevered brow
and when the heart beats regulary and the pulse
scarcely be fe and you battling there and strength
is almost gone what that sick person needs who is
in touch with God-one who place beneath that sick
person strong arms and pray the prayer of faith and
lift him up. Yes that is what this old world needs
And tell you, my brothers in the Ministry you will
never get victory be blessed of God in any
home unless your visit to that home like the visit
angeand unless you go that sick and place the
responsibility YOURSELF instead placing upon the
poor sick
Any spirit other than the spirit of kindness and
slderatlon is not the Spirit of the Christ and you have
not the Spirit of the Christ then you are none of His
THE SAVIOR OF MEN COMPASSIONATE
The Lord Jesus the Christ the very embodiment of
tenderness and kindness to the sick and to the suffering
although He heapd vehement denunciaons upon the hypo
critics OF His day. yet how very tender and kind He
as she sorrOWed the death of her brother!
All it is all we'll enough when you are up and do not
know what it is to suffer PAIN and when your body hrobs
with perfect health to stand and tell others what they ought
do and tell them that they had getup they would
do this or that or the other thing.
Some of you who here this afternoon entirely
rough and you do handle the sick propery you
too and forget that important esson but
mind your day will you talk to others in that
manner and show not the Spirit of the Lord Jesus the Christ
but your day will come, when you will be PROSTATE and
when your strength will be quickly leaving you and you will
be longing for kind word and then perhaps will
in and talk to you in that spirit then you will be
reaping just exactly what you have
Oh my brothers and sisters if there is any place where
the greatest kindness ought to be shown it in the sick
room.
Now, want you to remember this story of Naaman
for this thing if for nothing ese that his meant
peasanness that for the victory that he for his
King and the greatness which achieved the Lord
given all the praise and all the glory.
GOD WILL NOT SHARE HIS GLORY
God will not share His glory with any The man
or the woman who attempts steal Gods glory will be
ground to powder God will have all the glory for each
who is saved each who healed and for each
one who is cleansed and blessed.
Some people say, "We, now there any healings
adays Why could stand here and tell you OF scores
of them quite recently.
When any person testifes to healing which God has
wrought, do not to have mentioned at ALL
does matter in the least who prayed for you God
healed you therefore give God the glory Remember that
the who exats himself shall be abased, and the man
who humbles himself shall be exalted The proof of ones
ministry is the fruit that it bears.
We do want any labels tackled around here. You
may somebody very great but do not want to know it,
You will be judged by your life and not by what
does not matter what you say for people say all sorts of
things merely what says does not prove anything
SELF-CONTROL AND HUMILITY GRACEs TO BE CULTIVATED
My brothers and sisters of the sweetest traits of
Christian character is sefcontro; and another beautiful
trait is humility Do you not know that truly great
and appear to be great? True greatness is
on the inside and not on the outside.
Take some men and dress them in generals uniforms
and put swords in their right hands, but that would not
make them generals nor commanders.
True Christianity is in the heart and in the spirit
Whoever exalts himself will be brought down. but whoever
humbes himself God will exa Give God all the honor
and all the glory
Our progress ZION CITY is not due to any shrewd
fnancierng: but we owe it all to God the Almighty.
Oh it is such blessed thing to trust and to rest entirely
in God.
JUDGMENTS COME UPON MEN
When an earthquake happens, | say it is judgment
from God and when cyclone and sweeps away half
of city, say it judgment from Godand that just
