Frequently Asked Questions about the End Time Gospel FAQ


Living Word Broadcast - End Time Gospel FAQ Question: I know we can claim our children, but I was just curious, about all the ones we loved in our past, will they be there as well too?

Answer:

“Dear, Brother Branham, will all the sons and daughters of true, borned again believers be saved? No, brother; no, they sure won't. See, as I--as I copied David duPlessis on this remark, "God don't have grandchildren (See?), just sons and daughters." See, they'll have to be born just exactly like their father and mother was born of the Spirit. See? That's what makes a man a new person, is because he's born again, reborn. His first birth brings him a natural man on earth; his second birth brings him a spiritual man of heaven. See? It changes him, his soul, not his outward conscience, his outward being, his senses; he still feels, and smell, taste, and hear; but his inward parts, his desires, what motivates him, has been changed to God. See?“ [Questions And Answers 1 Jeff. IN COD 64-0823M]

“Now, remember, the only way that this could happen would be this: just like it was in the time of the Roman centurion. Paul told the Roman, him and Silas, when he wanted to pull his sword and kill himself, because God had shook the jail down with an earthquake; he said, "Do thyself no harm, seeing we're all here. Rise." And wanted to know what he could do. He said, "Rise and be baptized, calling upon--on the Name of the Lord, and thou and thy house shall be saved." See? In other words, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, thou and thy house shall be saved." Now, how? If your house believes in the same way that you believe. See? You pray and commit your children to God and hold onto God, believing that they will be saved.“ [Questions And Answers 1 Jeff. IN COD 64-0823M]

“Brother Branham, you said on one of the tapes that Noah saved his household. Does this mean a mother can have the same faith for her household? And does it mean every one of the family will be saved if we believe it? Now, that's... Yeah, that's kind of a... You'd have to watch the way I answer this now. See? First, "You said... (Now, let me see right...) You said on one of your tapes that Noah saved his household." Why? Because they believed. That's it, because they believed his message. "Does this mean that a mother can have the same faith for her household?" Yes, sister. I can see a little mother's heart crying for her people. "And does this mean every one of the family will be saved if we believe it?" Yes, if they will accept it. That's right.“ [Questions And Answers 1 Jeff. IN COD 64-0823M]

“Remember the Philippian jailer. Believe for both you... If you've got enough faith for your own salvation, can't you have that same faith that'll work upon your people? What is faith? It's an unseen force. See? What is--what is--it's a Spirit. The Holy Spirit brings faith. See? It's a unseen force. Why would I lay hands upon the sick? See? If I can get that personal contact with that spirit in that person there, something's going to happen. See? Here stands the Holy Spirit; He'll reveals the secrets of the heart. He'll do just exactly what He said He'd do in the last day. The people believe that; they look at it, "Yes, sir, I believe that." Now, if I just don't become too common to you (See?), becomes just a common thing. You tromp through one day and tromp through the next day. See? That's--that's just chance-taking. You don't believe it in the first place (See?), because just as soon as you really believe it... That woman said, "If I can touch His garment, I'll be made every whit whole," and she did it. See? She didn't say, "Let me try it again." See? She believed it. See? That's--that's...“ [Questions And Answers 1 Jeff. IN COD 64-0823M]

“God don't have no grandchildren. They come in. The old pentecostal father and mother, under an experience, brought you in; and you just come into the church and sit there, and automatically you was a pentecostal? He don't have grandchildren. He only has sons and daughters. There is no grandchildren. You have to pay the same price and get the same Holy Ghost that they did. You've got to be a son and daughter, not a grandson and granddaughter. He is not an old dote grandfather, soft, and lets his kids get by with anything, bless their little hearts. He is God, the Eternal One! That's right, sons and daughters!“ [Once More NY, NY V-18 N-13 63-1117]

“As David duPlessis said one time, "God don't have pentecostal grandchildren." But that's the way you say, "My mother was pentecostal. She had an experience. She did this. My father did so-and-so." That ain't got nothing to do with you. You've got to have the same thing. Now we got seminaries that hatch out our ministers, and we're building bigger ones all the time. And--and we got students of psychology. And that's alright if you want to teach psychology, but I don't care about psychology. I just want to know Jesus Christ, that's all I--I... all I want to know, is Him. Now we find that we've got it. It certainly has to bring to pass the prophecy of Second Timothy 3, where they'd be, "lukewarm," you know, "heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasure more than of God, and trucebreakers, incontinent, and--and fierce, and despisers of those that are good.“ [Just Once More Lord Shreveport, LA V-17 N-11 63-1201E]

“A young fellow said, the other day, "God loves me so well!" God is a good God, that is true, but He is a God of anger, too. He's a God of judgment. He's a God of wrath. We fail to get that. You make Him so good till you make Him some old dotty grandpa. He's not no dotty grandfather. He is almighty God, and He don't have no grandchildren. He has sons and daughters of God, not shook hands and adopted in. You must be born again, and the Blood applied! It's sons and daughters of God. Not some old soft grandfather, let His kids get by, grandchildren get by with anything. He is not a grandfather. He's a Father. Yes, sir. Every child must be born of Him. He's a Father of correction.“ [The Token BALF. CA V-22 N-8 64-0208]

“Do your children have to have an experience to have the Holy Spirit? If the--if--if they see the end-time Message, do they have the Holy Spirit? Every one must have an experience. Your children cannot go in on no other way but the same way you do. See? They've got to be borned again. There's no grandchildren in the Kingdom of God; they're all children. They must have it, must have an experience with God to go in, just the same as you. Now, I hope I can get this. It's...“ [Questions And Answers 3 Jeff. IN COD 64-0830M]
