So then, I said, "I'm surprised, Brother Best, that you would make the remark that you did, when you said, 'Let the healer come forth and perform. Let--let him do something, let me see it.'" I said, "Brother Best, don't you understand, that's the same spirit was on the Pharisees? 'If Thou be the Son of God, come down off the cross.' They put a rag around His head--around His face, Jesus, and hit Him on the head with stick, and said, 'If you be the--a prophet, tell us who hit you?' Don't you see, Brother Best, that's the spirit of the devil? Was not it the devil, that said to Jesus, 'If Thou be the Son of God, make bread out of these stones? Perform a miracle, let me see.' God don't do things like that. He doesn't mind the devil."
