L-212 Now how many believes that He is the same yesterday, today, and forever, raise up your hand. How many knows that this is the Truth? In Hebrews 3, says that, "Right now He is a High Priest that can be touched by the feeling of our infirmities." How many knows that? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] [Hebrews 13:8], [Hebrews 4:15]

L-213 Well, if He is the same yesterday, today, and forever,... Only, He is not, in physical form; when He returns like that, time is over, He'll take the Church with Him.

L-214 But He is here in the form of the Holy Ghost, to come into me and into you, and perform His same works. He said, in John 14:12, "He that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall He do also." Is that right? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] [John 14:12]

L-215 And if the Word is in us, and we're telling the Truth, and it is the Word that He promised for today, then isn't the Word of God "sharper than a two-edged sword, and a Discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart"? Does the Bible say that? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] Was not all the prophets could discern the thoughts in--in the people's mind? Is that right? ["Amen."] Why? It was the Word that was in them, God's Word for that day. See? That's how they were vindicated. That was their credentials. None of them belonged to an organization, not one, never did. Their credentials was their ministry. [Hebrews 4:12]

L-216 God said, "If there be one among you, who is spiritual or a prophet, and what he says comes to pass, then hear him, for I am with him. But if it don't come to pass, well, don't hear him." And it must not just be once, it must continually all the time; from prophets. [I Corinthians 14:37]

L-217 There is a gift of prophecy, that's in the church, which is to be examined by the--by the examiners, before it can be told to the church, of course. "Let it be before two or three judges, and then it's told to her." [Matthew 18:16]

L-218 But a prophet is borned a prophet, predestinated, foreordained. "Jeremiah," God said, "before you was even formed in your mother's wombs, I ordained you a prophet over the nation." John the Baptist, seven hundred and twelve years before he was born, "He was the voice of one crying in the wilderness, 'Prepare the way of the Lord.'" See? Sure. [Jeremiah 1:5], [Luke 3:4]

L-219 Notice, now, when Jesus was here on earth, He made the sacrifice for healing and for salvation. Do we believe that? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] Jesus could not come tonight and save you; He has already done it. The sin question was settled. He is the Lamb of God that take, took away the sins of the world. "He was wounded for our transgressions. With His stripes we were healed." It's a past tense. No matter how much you would scream out, and how much you would scream out, that wouldn't do a bit of good until you accept it. [Isaiah 53:5]

L-220 "And He is a High Priest sitting at the right hand of the Majesty on High, to make intercessions on our profession." You've got to accept it and profess it. See, that's correct. Same way by healing. [Hebrews 8:1]

L-221 But what if He was standing here tonight, wearing this suit that He gave me? What would He do in the prayer line? How would you know it was Jesus? See? Now, as far as somebody come and say, "Jesus, will You heal me?"
He would say, "I've already done it."

L-222 Now if he had nail scars in their hand; and anybody could have that, see, any scar could be.

L-223 But what is it, how do you know, what do you know what kind of a vine it is? It's what kind of life it's got in it. And every vine, if the first... The first branch that come out of that Vine, Jesus Christ, they wrote a Book of Acts behind it. Is that right? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] If It ever puts forth another one, they'll write another book of acts. For if it bore grapes, the first one, the next time it can't have lemons. But, a lemon vine can live in there, it's a citrus fruit. But it's living of its own; it'll always bring forth lemons, it's the grafted vine into it. But if the Vine itself puts forth a branch, it'll bear fruit like the first one did, for it'll be the Life that's in Jesus Christ will be in that vine. That's right. [John 15:1-5]

L-224 Jesus said, "He that believeth in Me, the works that I do shall he also." Now if He was here, He would be known by His Life, and by the things that He promised for this age. [John 14:12]

L-225 How many was here last night, let's see your hand. Practically all of you, I suppose. All right. Now there is people...

L-226 Everyone in that line, as far as I know, is a total stranger to me. If that's right, raise up your hand. Each one is a... Are you a stranger? [The person says, "Yes."--Ed.]

L-227 How many out there is strangers to me? All right. Only thing I ask you to do is have faith and believe that I have told you the Truth.

L-228 Now, look, Christ promised these things for the last days. Now, I know you've had great warriors here in the city, perhaps Oral Roberts and, oh, like the late Jack Coe and those great man of faith; they lived their time. But remember the last sign that the Gentile world seen before the promised son arrived in Abraham's time, which is the father of all, and Jesus promised the same thing; the last sign that was showed to the Church elected, now remember, there was One. Two went down and preached in the Sodom, they never showed this sign; neither is it today. But to the called-out Church, the sign was showed; and so did Jesus prophesy it would be the same thing, see, God manifested in flesh, see, discerning the thoughts that's in the heart. See? Now, He promised that! "Both heavens and earth will fail, but That won't." [Mark 13:31]

L-229 Now if He will manifest that, to show that He is here present, how many of you will believe Him for your healing and whatever you have need of? [Congregation rejoices--Ed.]

L-230 Now, Lord Jesus, now it's to You, Father. Whatever Your will is, let it be done. I am Your servant. These are all Your servants, or many of them in here. Let those who are not Your servants, by Your Presence... knowing that maybe before morning they'll have to look upon Your face. Now You can smile upon them with grace, but then You'll be their judge.

L-231 Let it come to pass, Lord, that Jesus will come among us, tonight, and perform and do like He did before His crucifixion; will be assurance to us, in the face of all heathen religions, that our Saviour is not dead, but has risen from the dead. And after two thousand years, He is just as alive tonight as He was then. And may we, like those from Emmaus, say, "Did not our hearts burn within us, as He talked to us along the road?" Let Thy Presence be known. May we see You, tonight, in the Power of Your resurrection. And then may the people believe then, Lord, because of Your great august Presence. We ask in Jesus Christ's Name. Amen. [Luke 24:32]

L-232 Now I take every spirit... Each one of you are a spirit. Remember, you've never seen me; you see this old wore out hull here that declares this Voice. Now this Voice either is coming from God, or it's not, same as yours. This voice is just packed around in this hull, which I'll swap it someday for a new one that won't get old. But, friend, each one, a spirit. So when you move, see, when you have control there, see, it interrupts. Just sit real still, be in prayer. I want you... If God does something, we should be thankful to Him. Certainly. Praise Him, then be reverent and watch. Just sit real still, and believe with all your heart.

L-233 Now you out there that has no prayer cards, no matter where you are, you just believe and say this, "Lord Jesus, what he told us, it's in the Bible. We... I know that You promised that, and I know it has to be You. It can't be that man; he is a man like I am, or like my husband, or like my son, or brother, or whatmore." See?

L-234 But a gift is not something, a knife, that you take and go do things with, a gift. Some of these days, I'm going to get me a big tent and come to a city, and just stay for about months at a time, see, and teach, though. A gift, is getting yourself out of the way, so God can come in, see what He shows, what He does. A gift is not, "I got power to do this, I got power!" Your power of a gift is get yourself out of the way. And the gift that God has give you, operates through that then, see, after you're out of the way. See?

L-235 Now, I can't make Him tell me nothing. He has to do it. Now to save time... I'm real late.

L-236 But come here, lady, I want you to stand right here. I was speaking a few moments ago about a woman at the... at the well. Was you here last evening? [The sister says, "No, sir."--Ed.] You wasn't here. Have you ever been in one of the meetings before? ["No, sir."] Never been before. This is her first time. We're strangers. She wasn't even here last night. Never had instructions on it. Nothing but just stand here. ["That's right."] Now we are standing. You remember the story of the woman at the well? ["Yes, sir."] It was a little panoramic something like this, and the Man and the woman met for their first time in life.

L-237 Now, this woman was in, she was in... She was in shame. She had married too many times, and she--and she was living with a man she wasn't married to, and--and it was a very bad thing. And Jesus spoke to her. [John 4:1-21]

L-238 Now you remember, He said, in Saint John 5:19, "Verily, verily, I say unto you, the Son can do nothing in Himself; but what He sees the Father doing, that doeth the Son likewise." Therefore, Jesus never performed one thing without first seeing it in a vision, or He told something wrong there. "The Son does nothing till He sees the Father do it first." Not hears Him; "sees Him do it." And then the Father... [John 5:19]

L-239 He had need to go by Samaria. He was going to Jericho, but He went up to Samaria, the city of Sychar. And He met this woman, and He begin to talk to her until He found where her trouble was. Then He told her her trouble, and quickly, her in that condition, she recognized that that was the sign of the Messiah. [John 4:1-15]

L-240 Well, if that's Him yesterday, it would be the same One today, if He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Is that true, audience? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] See?

L-241 Now we are meeting for our first time. I am not He, and you're not she, but He still is God. [The sister says, "Amen."--Ed.] That's right, see. Now if you can have faith in--in what I am saying, in the Word! I'll never say nothing but what's in this Word. ["Praise the Lord!"] He might do things outside of that Word; but just as long as He does That, I know That's right, then, see. ["Yes, sir."] And now you don't know me, I don't know you.

L-242 So therefore if you were sick, and I laid hands upon you, and hollered, like that great warrior, Brother Roberts, or some of those, Brother Allen or some of those man, lay hands upon you and say, "Hallelujah, the Lord heals you," that's good. You believe that, and it'll work. See? [The sister says, "Amen."--Ed.] See? But now what if He stands here and tells something that you have done, or some reason that you are sick, or something that's happened down through life, or something you ought not have done? ["That will be fine."] Oh, that that, you would know that that had to be right, right clear to your mind then. ["That's right."] That's right.
Would it yours, out there? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.]

L-243 Now what am I talking to the woman about? See, I never kept on that message tonight (I got to perseverant), see, it would change me into preaching. And now have to come back to discernment, relaxing myself, getting William Branham over on the side.

L-244 How many ever seen that picture was taken here in Houston? And you... It's here. It's out front here now, see. That's hanging right beside, between me and the woman, right now. There It is, milling right around. If the woman wanted to witness to it; she knows, in the last few seconds, there has been something like a real sweet feeling. [The sister says, "Yes."] If that's right, raise up your hand. ["Amen. Amen."] See? I'm looking right at It. See, it's like living in another dimension. I'm watching It, through the woman. ["Amen."]

L-245 Now, the lady, one thing, she is extremely nervous. [The sister says, "Yes."] And that's what you wanted me to pray for. And that's just natural cause right now because of this time of life that you're living in, getting this age and so forth, that makes you nervous.

L-246 Another thing, you've got something in your side, it's--it's like little pockets of air, like, gathers in your side. [The sister says, "That's right."--Ed.] Now is that right? ["Yes, sir."] Raise up your hand, if that... ["That's--that's a statement from the doctor."] See? ["Praise His holy Name!"]

L-247 Now, see, now there that is again, somebody saying, "He guessed." You, I'm going to call who that is, one of these days, see. Don't do it. You can't hide yourself now, remember, see. The--the Word, It's here, Itself. Not me, friend; I'm just your brother. But the Word is here.

L-248 Here, she is a good person, let's see if I guessed that. I don't know now what I said. It'll have to come through that tape, for I know it. Now just a moment. Yes. Yes, she--she gets nervous, which that's the cause from a--a time, her age and things. She's...

L-249 And then, another thing, you've had a--an operation. [The sister says, "Yes, sir, I have."--Ed.] And that was a female affair, sometime ago. That's right. ["Yes."] That's made you nervous-er than ever. That's right, isn't it? ["Yes, sir, it is."] Uh-huh, that's right. And that made you nervous, 'cause, at this time of life, made you more nervous. Now, you think I'm guessing it? ["No."]

L-250 Here is another thing. There is a--a girl with you, little girl. And she is here, and she is suffering with mumps. [The sister says, "Yes. Amen."--Ed.] Is that right? Sitting out there. And there is a woman, another woman, a friend of yours ["Yes, sir."], and she has got mental oppression ["Yes."], like nervous and then mental. ["Amen."] Is that right? ["Hallelujah!"] Now when you go back, lay that handkerchief upon them; the mumps will leave and she'll get over it, and you'll be well. Go, believing in the Name of the Lord Jesus.

L-251 Do you believe? [Congregation rejoices and says, "Amen."--Ed.] That was Jesus yesterday, that's Jesus today! You have to know that that is Somebody, see. Yeah. Somebody has. Now, there, look, that was behind me. See? See? It's not... I couldn't do that. You--you know it's got to be some Power, don't you? ["Amen."] Do you believe it's the Lord Jesus, according to His promise? ["Amen."] The Lord bless you.

L-252 How do you do, lady? I am a stranger to you, also. I don't know you. I've never seen you in my life. We're strangers. This is our first time meeting, as far as I know. But now if the Lord Jesus should tell me something about yourself, that something like that lady there, whatever it was, would you believe that it was the Lord Jesus instead of... It wouldn't be me, you know. And now you could, like the Pharisees, say, "It's Beelzebub, an evil spirit." [Luke 11:15], [Mark 3:22], [Mark 3:22]

L-253 And because they said the Spirit of God, that was doing that work in Him, was "an evil spirit," it was blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, which will never be forgiven when This come in this day. That's the reason this nation stands in judgment today. It's nothing left for it but judgment. It's full of Jack Rubys, and so forth, so it can't be nothing else happen to it but judgment.

L-254 Now you're ill. You've been in to a doctor. He really would advise an operation. That operation is on the colon. [The sister says, "That's right."--Ed.] That is true, isn't it? ["Amen."]

L-255 Here is another thing. You are desperately in need of a spiritual... [The sister says, "Yes. Amen."--Ed.] You haven't been feeling right. You've kind of washed away, a little, and you want to come back. ["That's right."] Well, you're back now. Now go, believing with all your heart, and you'll get well, in Jesus Christ's Name. Your sins are forgiven you. Now go, believing.

L-256 Now, I never said, "sins forgiven." He said that. See, it wasn't me. It was Him, see.

L-257 Do you believe? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] Now it ought to make the rest of you just know it's Him here. Isn't that right? ["Amen!"] If you would just believe! Just have faith. Don't doubt. Be reverent and believe God. Now, see, you're in His Presence.

L-258 Now, if one of those discernments made the Son of God say, "virtue went out," what do you think it would do to me, a sinner saved by His grace? See? It would be, you know what it would be. [Mark 5:30], [Luke 6:19]

L-259 Just a moment, it isn't the woman. Say, you that was just healed, there, lady, going back to your seat, look to me just a moment. There is a--a man sitting right in front of you there, that has sinus trouble, sitting right there. Yeah. Do you believe that God will make you well? You do? All right.

L-260 Tell me what he touched. I don't know the man, never seen him in my life. If that's right, wave your hand, if we're strangers to one another.

L-261 Now, look, that you might know something else. His wife sitting by him there, do you believe God can tell me what's wrong with her? Will you believe me to be His prophet, or His servant? Will you do it? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.]

L-262 She has got hay fever. If that's right, raise up your hand, lady. All right. Now if you'll both believe! You touched Something. Believe now, and it'll leave you.

L-263 Do you believe God? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] Don't doubt. Have faith in God.

L-264 Here is a man. I've never seen this man. He is quite a bit younger than I, and I've never seen him before. If we're strangers, sir, to each other, raise up your hands. All right. I've never seen him.

L-265 Now let's take a picture, in the Bible, let's take when... when Jesus met Simon Peter. I would imagine him being a man something about that age, his hair thinning, when Jesus met him. Now watch. He talked to him.

L-266 Now, if I don't know the man, never seen him, both of us with our hands up, we're total strangers to each other. Now, the others was women, let's see about this man.

L-267 Now you look at me, just a moment, as your brother. And now if the Lord would say something that you have done, or something that you ought to have done, or ought not have done, or whatever it is, you'll know whether it's the truth or not. [The brother says, "Yes, sir."--Ed.] You would know. And then if He can tell you what's wrong with you, or something that's on your mind, what your sickness is, or--or something like that, tell you something that you--you'll know whether it's the truth or not. Then if He can tell you what has been, and you know whether it's true or not; if He tells you what's going to be, then you know that's got to be true.

L-268 Now would that make everyone in here... Just take my time with this man, and talk with him. This is the first one.

L-269 Now you looking this way, just a moment, as we talk. May the Lord help me now. And do you believe what the Bible says is true? [The brother says, "Yes, sir."--Ed.]

L-270 You believe that this is the hour that Jesus is to come; that the Church has come from justification, sanctification, baptism of the Holy Spirit, just like the pyramid like that coming? And now the top stone is going to have to be so perfect till, when the Headstone comes, it has to blend right with it. The ministry has to start out like this, and just come to the minority all the time, getting smaller groups, and smaller group, until finally the Stone meets with the building. He is the Headstone, takes the whole building with Him, which is the Church. All of them will raise up, plumb back from this first watch, on to the seventh, and all go in the Rapture. Each one had their day allotted to them, and they had their reformers and founders, and so forth, all down through. And this last day, it come into an eagle again, which is back in the prophetic age, to bring this together.

L-271 Do you believe that, the Word and Stone, the coming One? [The brother says, "I do."--Ed.] You have a very fine feeling to you, sir.

L-272 Now, what's your trouble, you've had an accident. In that accident, you were gassed with carbon monoxide gas. That is true. It poisoned you. It poisoned you in your liver, and you had trouble with that. You had trouble with your stomach. [The brother says, "Right."--Ed.] You had trouble with your heart. ["Right."] And it's made you so nervous until you built yourself in a complex. You're poor, must go back to work. But you're afraid to go back to work, you're afraid of that carbon monoxide gas. But it's going to be all right. Now, remember, if--if Jesus Christ will tell me who you are, will... Now them things was true, wasn't they? If He'll tell me who you are, will you accept it and know, and go on back and be of a good cheer? Will you do it? Your name is Mr. Wagner. ["That's right."] Go on back, on your road.

L-273 Do you believe now? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] With all your heart, you believe? ["Amen."] "If thou canst believe, all things are... All things are possible to them that believe." [Mark 9:23]

L-274 Now do you believe that God will heal that female trouble for you? Now just go on across the platform saying... [The sister crys out--Ed.] Amen. See? God bless you.

L-275 Now, lady, when you get up of a morning, you're stiff, you can't hardly move around very much, arthritis. But do you believe that God heals arthritis? [The sister says, "Yes."--Ed.] All right, go on your road, saying, "Thank You, Lord." ["But I--I didn't... Need healing for nerves."] All right, sir, that's what caused your arthritis, see, was your nerves. "If thou canst believe, all things are possible," but first you've got to believe it. [Mark 9:23]

L-276 What do you think, sir? Do you believe with all your heart? Do you believe God heals heart trouble and makes you well? [The brother says, "Sure do!"--Ed.] All right, go on your road, say, "Thank You, Lord Jesus."

L-277 Now, lady, you're shadowed, that means cancer. [The sister says, "Right."--Ed.] Do you believe God will heal cancer? ["Yes."] All right, accept it and go on your road, saying, "Thank You, Dear God," and believe with all your heart.

L-278 God can heal stomach trouble, or anything else. Do you believe that? [The sister says, "Yes, sir."--Ed.] All right, go on your road, and rejoice, saying, "Thank You, Lord Jesus."

L-279 Do you believe God will heal your female trouble, that dripping? All right, go on your road, saying, "Praise the Lord." Believe with all your heart.

L-280 Do you believe God heals sinus and asthma, and all this stuff, makes you well? Go on your road, rejoicing, saying, "Thank You, dear God."

L-281 What if I didn't say nothing to you, just laid hands on you, you would believe it? In the Name of the Lord Jesus, be healed. Believe with all your heart.

L-282 Come, lady. Do you believe with all your heart? Anemia condition and heart trouble, do you believe that God will make you well? If you do, go on your road, say, "Thank You, Lord Jesus," and be made well.

L-283 All right, sir. Come, lady. Do you believe God heals diabetes and makes people well from diabetes? [The sister says, "Yes."--Ed.] Then go on your road, saying, "Thank You." Believe with all your heart, see.

L-284 God heals nervousness and stomach trouble, too. Do you believe He makes you well? Go on your road, rejoicing. Eat your supper, and be of a good courage.

L-285 Come. A nervous stomach, too. Do you believe God will make you well? [The sister says, "Yes, sir."--Ed.] Go on your road, and eat, and be made well. Believe with all your heart.

L-286 You have a little heart flutter, but also you kind of got arthritis. You believe God, God will make you well? [The sister says, "Yes, I do."--Ed.] Go on your road, and rejoice, and say, "Thank You, Lord."

L-287 A nervous stomach causing the peptic ulcer and things. You believe that God will make you well and heal you? [The sister says, "I do."--Ed.] Go on your road, and say, "Thank You, Lord," and be made well.

L-288 You got many things, a lady's trouble. One of your great things is a heart trouble, too much around your heart. Do you believe God will make you well? Go on your road, and rejoice, and say, "Thank You, Lord."

L-289 Do you believe God heals arthritis? [The sister says, "Yes, sir."--Ed.] Just keep on going, and your arthritis will be gone.

L-290 Do you believe with all your heart? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] See? Surely that...

L-291 Now some of you out in the audience. Now be reverent. Be reverent, just sit still, you believe with all your heart now. Look this way, believe with all your heart, some of you people out there that's not going to be in the prayer line.

L-292 This little boy sitting down here, little chubby fellow sitting right there. Don't you see that Light over him? The little fellow is suffering with a kidney trouble. Do you believe that God will heal the kidney trouble, sonny? You believe it? All right, stand up on your feet and say, "I believe it and accept it." All right. God bless you. Go on your...

L-293 Do you believe with all your heart? "If thou canst believe, all things are possible." [Mark 9:23]

L-294 What about you that just sat down there, come up with a little boy and sat down? Do you believe, that eye trouble, God will heal your eye trouble and make you well? You do? All right, you can have your healing, too. All right. You just sat down at the right time. Amen. Go right ahead. That's fine. That's good. All right. Amen. All right.

L-295 The lady next to you there, she has got trouble with her head. Do you believe that God will heal your head trouble, lady? [The sister says, "I do."--Ed.] All right. Your little girl there suffers with a mental trouble. That's right, isn't it? Lay your hand over on her, and believe, and she'll get well, too. Do you believe that?

L-296 This next lady sitting next, she is praying, right next to her. She is praying there because of a broke up home. Is that right, lady? Raise up your hand. Believe, and your home will be restored again. Have faith.

L-299 What's the matter with you people? Don't you see that Jesus Christ... Let us stand up on our feet. Raise up on your feet and accept Jesus as your healer.

L-300 O Lamb of God, in the Name of Jesus Christ, heal every person here, for Your glory.

L-195 Now, Heavenly Father, the meeting is Yours. But I have taught tonight on this little woman seeing something real, when she seen that spirit of discernment upon Solomon. And we are sure, Lord, that Your Words are true. You said that would return again, like it was in the days of Sodom, just before the Coming; and You was the same yesterday, today, and forever. The works that You did, we would do also. And You're a High Priest, tonight, that can be touched by the feeling of our infirmities. How much more do we need?

L-196 How much did those Jews need, to see that He was a Prophet? A virgin conceived, and all these things, but, they, their creeds blinded them.

L-197 Lord, there is some here come like, maybe not from Sheba, but they've come from many places. I pray, God, that You'll identify Yourself tonight, real. And then identify Yourself in them, as the instinct of that mother in that little deer did that day. We are Yours, Father. Speak through us, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

L-198 Now I want you to have faith and believe, each one of you, all around everywhere. And just pray. Now don't... Just look and pray now, and just believe. See, this might not, the Holy Spirit might not be pleased with doing this. If He doesn't, I'll call up a prayer line. But just stand here. Somebody out there, even if you... I don't want you with prayer cards. Just--just anybody just--just pray. Course, I wouldn't know, but you just pray and see. Just say, "Lord Jesus, I know that man don't know me. He knows nothing about me, but I know that I do believe."

L-199 Your faith is unconscious. Don't press now, or jump. You jump away from it. It's right with you. Just relax yourself and believe. Just believe now, have faith. [A brother in the congregation, gives an exhortation--Ed.] Amen. And be reverent, just have faith, just believe. Sometimes your faith is unconscious, you have it and you don't know it. That little woman had it; she didn't know it.

L-200 How many of you has ever seen the picture of that Angel of the Lord, that Light? It's, it was taken right here in Texas. It's been taken, all over the world now.

L-201 But what do you think, sir? Do you believe, sitting right here at the corner? Looked like you were looking so eagerly. You have many things wrong with you. You have complications, many things. Now when I said that, a real strange feeling come to you, didn't it? If that's right, raise up your hand. Now I'm a total stranger to you, I don't know you. That's right. You know what? That Light just settled right down over you. See? That's what you felt, kind of a real sweet feeling. I was watching It, see, come right down.

L-202 Now, yes, you're here, you want to be prayed for before you leave the building. If God will reveal to me what your trouble is, and you sitting there, and me here, would you believe it to be God? It's a hernia, one of your great things. That's right. Is that right? If God will tell me who you are, what your name is, you've got a good contact with Him now, will you believe me to be His prophet, or His servant? Excuse me, that's a stumblingblock to a lot, see. Do you believe it? Your name is Mr. Sturgeon. If that's right, raise your hand. Believe it, and be healed.

L-203 Here is a little lady sitting right back there, dark-headed, right out here in the aisle. Yes, you. You was amazed when that was said. Now right at this time you begin to feel kind of strange, see, real sweet-like something around you. If anyone will look, if you can see It, kind of an amber-looking Light coming down upon the little lady. Now what her trouble is, she has headaches that bothers her real bad. That is right. If that's right, raise up your hand like that. And I have never seen her, in my life. That's true. That's right. Headaches bothers her, like a migraine, but they're going to leave you. Amen. Believe it. Now the...

L-204 There is a man sitting right next to you there, and he is looking right at me so earnestly, and that Light is moving right over towards him. And the man is suffering trouble with his eyes. But if he will believe, God will heal the eyes and make them well. You believe? All right. I've never seen you in my life. You're a stranger to me.

L-205 Say, that young fellow sitting right next to you there, also, he suffers with trouble with his head. That's right. That's right. I never seen the man, in my life. God knows that, see. All right, you believe.

L-206 The man sitting right next to you, with glasses on, looking this a way. Yes, you're wearing glasses, but that really isn't your trouble. You got something wrong with your back, that you're wanting to be prayed for. If that's right, wave your hand. All right.

L-207 That young fellow sitting right next to you there, right next to you. He has had a lot of troubles, that young man has. Yes, sir, with the red tie on, you've had a lot of troubles in your family and things. Kind of, your wife is a nervous type of a person, and you are suffering with some kind of a pressure in your head, also. That's THUS SAITH THE LORD. That is true. That's right. You just believe. Don't you doubt, but you believe.

L-208 Here is a woman sitting right back here. Don't you see that Light move back there, and settle down right here? She is suffering with an eye trouble, and her bladder. Oh, she is going to miss It. Lord God, help me. Her name is Mrs. Chambers. Believe with all your heart, Mrs. Chambers. Raise up to your feet. Raise up, so that the people see who you are. I'm a stranger, never seen her in my life. Yeah. It's over now. Jesus Christ makes you well.

L-209 Now if that isn't Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today, and forever, where is He? Did He promise to do it? All that believes it, raise up your hand. All right.

L-210 Do you want to be a real Christian, you that raised your hand a while ago; like that old mother deer was? While the Holy Spirit is here, and the anointing is all over us, why don't you just make your way, and come stand right here at the altar, for just a minute. If you are seeking God for salvation, will you come here, and just come here at this altar and stand here with me just a minute? Raise up. That's it. That's right. God bless you. Anybody in the building, anywhere you're at, will you come? That's right. Come right now, you that wants to find Christ.

L-211 You will never be no closer to Him until you meet Him. He is here. He is identified, something real. You've joined church, a lot of you church members now, you've joined church but that's all you had, you want to see something real. If that isn't exactly what Jesus Christ identified Himself to be!

L-212 Look at this little child coming here, crying, the tears running down his little face. No wonder, they're tender. They haven't been pulled through everything. Another one coming down the aisle, another one in the back, coming down, little children, when the adults has passed theirs by. Won't you come? Come right up here now and stand around the altar. You church members, you people that wants to have an experience of Christ in your heart, won't you come here? If He knows your heart, and you know you couldn't hide it, won't you come right now and stand here, just before we go further. Come here, stand here for a word of prayer. Will you do it?

L-213 Come, show, stand for Him. You stand for Him. If you're ashamed of Him now, He'll be ashamed of you there.

L-214 Remember, He is here. The Scripture said this would happen, and here He is identifying Himself as being here. If you're a church member, and don't know Christ as a real experience, won't you come at this time? Now, I'm not much to persuade people. Only thing I can say, is tell you the Truth, and if Christ's Presence, plus His Word being made manifest.

L-215 Up in the balcony, you that raised your hands; sister, brother, if you want to come down, we're going to wait right here. Come right on down, and gather around the altar, just for a word of prayer. Let the world know, let Jesus know that you're that you're not ashamed, you want to be a real Christian. Won't you come, while we're just waiting a moment or two?

L-216 Church member, lukewarm, backslider, won't you come stand along with them now? Come here and stand along, you who haven't, if you haven't got an experience with God, that you are borned in the Kingdom of God, like that.

L-217 What more do you want to see? Remember, I tell you in the Name of the Lord, if you regard me to be His servant, this is the last sign that the church will see, according to the Scripture. That was the last thing that Abraham seen done before the promised son arrived. And we are the royal Seed of Abraham, and Jesus promised the royal Seed to see the same thing that Abraham seen, just before the Gentile world burned. Don't put off for something else. Satan trying to get you to look over. Come now, while...
There is a Fountain filled with Blood,
Drawn from Immanuel's veins,
Where sinners plunged beneath the flood,
Lose all their guilty stain.
The dying thief rejoiced to see
That Fountain in his day;
There may I, though vile as he,
Wash all my sins away.

L-218 Won't you come and accept it now? I'm waiting just a moment, somebody else might come and stand here for prayer.

L-219 Now I'm going to ask ministers here, brethren, come down and stand with me, around, while we pray; and ministers out there, who is concerned, and some of these people in your neighborhood, that would come to your church or--or something, that you are interested in--in souls coming to Christ, and you believe this to be Jesus Christ.

L-220 Now, remember, I am not Jesus Christ. I am your brother, a sinner saved by grace. I am like you are. But it's Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit that's here with us, keeping His Word. He don't have to do this, but He promised He would do it. Jesus didn't have to heal the sick, but the Bible said, "He did it, that it might be fulfilled which was promised of Him."

L-221 Now, we don't care what brand of church that you belong to; if you believe that Jesus Christ is present, you believe that there is a born-again experience, of the baptism of the Holy Spirit.

L-222 Ministers, move right up, in among these people here. Come right up among them, laying your hands on them. We're going to offer prayer for them. I'm asking our congregation to be just as reverent as you can for a few moments. How do we know what the Holy Spirit will do! That's it, move right in, mingle yourself right with the people. Come right around them, each one.

L-223 Now remember, there is only one thing you can do, is accept what He has promised you. Have you seen the reality of the resurrection of Christ?

L-224 Now I'm going to ask the congregation if they will stand just a minute, in reverence and respects to them. Each one of you believe now. Confess all that you've done, that's all you can do, and then ask God to forgive you. And accept It, believe It. Now let everyone pray in your own way.

L-225 Our Heavenly Father, we come to You, with penitent souls. How the little story, about that mother deer, stuck down deep, that people wanted to do something, or see something real; like the queen of the South, who came from the uttermost parts of the earth, to hear the wisdom of Solomon. And a greater than Solomon is here, the Saviour of mankind, Jesus Christ of Nazareth! Save them, Father. Forgive their sins. Wash their souls in the Blood of the Lamb, and give them an experience of being born a Christian. No other animal, no nothing else, could have done that, but the mother deer. That's what she was. Give us that experience, Lord, now, of a born-again experience, in the Kingdom of God, while the Holy Spirit is there. Grant it, Lord. Grant it, Lord.

L-226 Now close your eyes, raise up your hands, and say, make your confession, saying, "Jesus, I now believe. Take me as I am. There is no more I can do. Heal my sick body. Take me, Lord. I believe You're here, the Holy Spirit is here identifying Itself. Save me by Thy grace, Lord. It's all I know how to do. Through Jesus Christ's Name!"
Brother Grant, will you lead us in prayer?

L-152 Now I'm going ask you one favor. Will you give me your undivided... Give God your undivided attention, for the next fifteen, sixteen minutes. Will you do that? And will you do this, open up your heart? Now remember what I've said. Don't let it go over your back, like water falling on a duck's back, as the old saying is. Don't do that. Consider This.

L-153 If I tell you anything that's not in the Scripture, and a promise for the hour, you are duty bound to see the manager here and come tell me about it. That's right. I--I teach nothing but what's in the Word. And if I stay right with that Word, and if I say It's that way, and God... It is in the Bible. If the Angel of the Lord told me something that wasn't in the Bible, it wouldn't be the Angel of the Lord. That's right. He has never one time told me anything but what was in that Word, and you bear me record. He has never said one thing, out of the hundreds of thousands and thousands, and the languages of the world, has He ever one time said anything wrong, or said anything that didn't come to pass.

L-154 Listen. Ask the manager and them here. This what you all see here, is the amateur side of that. Is that right, brethren? [The brethren say, "Right."--Ed.] Why, out there, and out in the private life, where He says, "Go down to this place, and see this. And this will come to pass. And say this over here, down here." It's just constantly, all the time, see, year in and out. The people in the audience just sees the--the little things. But now if you'll be reverent.

L-155 Now is everybody in this prayer line, standing here, strangers to me? Raise up your hands if you are. All right. How many out there is, knows that I don't know nothing about you? Raise up your hand. Now while... Thank you. I don't care where you are, if you're up in the balcony, back against the wall, down through here, wherever you are. I'm going to...

L-156 Now, this is for your good. This is for your benefit. See, this is for your benefit.

L-157 I thought that was my little grandson talking to me then, but it wasn't. I got a little grandson in here somewhere, tonight, he's about that size, and I thought it was little Paul. He always said he's going to come, stand on the platform, preach for me, and he's just not quite two years old. I think that little boy is hunting for his mommy.

L-158 So remember, I am trying to help you. I... God knows that. I am trying to help you, see. Now look, I want you to get the benefit, if He does come among us.

L-159 Now think of it, the Person of Jesus Christ working in flesh, like He promised He would do in the last. How many knows He promised that? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] Just as it was down there at Sodom, when the Angel with His back turned, and the... That was God. Do you believe that was God? How many believes that was God? ["Amen."] Sure, it was. The Bible said it was. And He, Jesus, referred to it. Now notice.

L-160 Now you out there without a prayer card, I want you to do something for me, wherever you are. Now remember, these things, watch when It tells you you're healed, or what It tells you to do. Watch what It says. If It just tells you, that's to build your faith. And then when your faith comes to a spot, you just reach out and accept God. It isn't me, 'cause the Heavenly Father knows.

L-161 I look down this line here, I don't see one person that I know. I can't see but about two or three people in the whole audience, that I know. And I don't know as, right now, I can say, show one. I know that Edmund Way was here a few minutes ago. I thought I seen him, and I--I missed...

L-162 If I'm not mistaken, I do see somebody I know, is a man and his wife, and a little girl, named Fritzinger, from up in Ohio. Is that, are you brother--Brother Fritzinger? You're sitting kind of in a little loop where... That's Brother and Sister Fritzinger, from Ohio, friends of mine.

L-163 And outside of that, sitting back there, is a... I see on the side over here, is an old man going on ninety-two years old, by the name of William Dauch. He and his wife. She is a nurse. William Dauch, in Ohio, a very personal friend of mine. Not long ago, he had, ninety-one years old, had a complete heart failure, heart attack, and his wife called me, to come at once, he was dying right then. And on...

L-164 He's been such a bosom friend to me. On my road up to see him, I was worried. And I stopped, and one of my wheels got out of line, was just cutting my tire to pieces, and I went in a Texaco station, got some gas, and they come out, looked at it. And I looked up, and I seen Brother Dauch walking down through my church, shaking my hand. I said, "Praise the Lord." And I looked back this way, and here he come down the street, and shook my hand. I went to him.

L-165 I seen his doctor, a young Jew, or a middle-aged man, Jewish man. And I said, "What about him, doctor?"

L-166 Said, "He hasn't even got a fighting chance." Said, "He's under the oxygen tent." Said, "He'll die right there." He said, "Remember, he is ninety-one years old."
I said, "Yes, sir."

L-167 Said, "It's a complete heart failure. Nothing can be done." Said, "Its time's to go."

L-168 And I said, "Yes, sir. But, no, he ain't going. That's all."

L-169 I went in, put my hand under the tent. I said, "Brother Dauch, can you hear me?" He looked up at me. Now really, in his name, he's a German, D-a-u-g-h, and I just pronounce it Dauch, see. And I--and I put my hand under the tent, and I said, "You hear me, Brother Dauch?"
He said, "Yeah."
I said, "You're not going. I done seen you're not going."

L-170 A week from then, standing in my church, who come walking up through the church but Brother Dauch! I left the meeting and went over the river, to a cafeteria, to eat. And when I got out of the car, and was walking up the street, here come Brother Dauch with his hand out. Them visions doesn't fail.

L-171 And that man of ninety-one years old, and follows every meeting, was in California. Would you just raise up your hand, Brother Dauch, sitting there, that the people will see what a real soldier is now. Here, sitting right here, see, ninety-one years old, and follows every meeting. When I'm at the tabernacle, he drives hundreds of miles every day, to hear me preach a little sermon, and go back. God, "It shall be Light in the evening time." [Zechariah 14:7]

L-172 I said, the other day I was talking to him, I said, "What can I do for you, Brother Dauch?"

L-173 "Just one request, Brother Branham. When He comes, I want to go with Him."

L-174 Said, "Don't worry. That's secure. Sure." Now, the man come in, was baptized, oh, come in and received the baptism of the Holy Ghost and everything, just a wonderful servant of Christ.

L-175 Now I'm going to ask everybody, real reverent, you look this a way and pray.

L-176 Now how many teachers here know that He is the High Priest, right now, that can be touched by the feeling of our infirmities? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] Well, if He is the same yesterday, today, and forever, and the same High Priest, He would act the same way. Only, He, His body is at the... on the Throne of God. How many knows that? ["Amen."] The body of Jesus is on the Throne of God. But He uses our body to manifest Himself through, just like He promised to do. "The works that I do shall you also."
I'm going to ask you to sit still, be reverent, watch, pray. [Hebrews 13:8], [John 14:12]

L-177 Now, Heavenly Father, I've tried to be just as reverent as I know how to do, about it. Now just a word from You now, Lord, and then may the still, little Voice come down through this audience and say, "It is I; be not afraid." Grant it, Father. And I commit myself to You, with the Message that's been preached tonight, with Thy Word to be confirmed. You don't have to do it. But if You will do it, or You do do it, because that You promised to. I pray that You'll grant this, in Jesus' Name. Amen. [Matthew 14:27]

L-178 And everybody real reverent, just real reverent. How do you do? Now I'll give you Scripture as we go along. If the Lord does, I don't know. But ju-... And I been preaching like that, see, that's one kind of anointing. This is another kind of anointing. That was just blessing. This, just one thing, just takes the life right from you.

L-179 Now the lady stands here. I've never seen her in my life. Are we strangers? I believe you said, a while ago, I didn't know you. God knows you. He knows me. Do you know that what we are standing here now, we're going to have to answer for it at the Day of Judgment? [The sister says, "Amen."--Ed.] You aware of that? You know that what we do now, God is going to make us answer for it up there? I just said that for a purpose. Now, if the Lord Jesus will reveal to me what you're doing, what's on your mind, or something like that, would you believe it? You would have to believe that, wouldn't you? ["Amen."]

L-180 Would you believe it out there, you audience? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.]

L-181 Now we stand just exactly like the woman at the well, and our Lord, a man and a woman meeting for their first time. See? Here we are, meeting for... That's Saint John the 4th chapter. Now if the Holy Spirit will say... If you are here for somebody else, if you're sick, if it's domestic trouble, if it's financial troubles, whatever it is, I have no idea. But He does. But He can discern the thoughts that's in your heart. He is the Word. I can't. I'm a man. You're just a bit nervous, and that's the reason I'm doing this, you see. [Hebrews 4:12], [John 4:16-18]

L-182 That's one of your troubles, is nervousness. That's right. And you also have diabetes, that's another thing that's wrong with you. That's right. Complications, just many things are wrong. Is that right? If that's right, raise up your hand. See? Do you believe He'll heal you? [The sister says, "I do."--Ed.] You do? Now, your nervousness is caused from your age, see, but now that'll all leave you. And I believe that by faith we'll go to Calvary, have a Blood transfusion.

L-183 Now, that's just exactly what He did. He told the woman at the well what her trouble was. Hers was too many husbands. Yours was what... I think was nervousness, and two or three more things wrong with you. That's right, isn't it? That's the same thing.

L-184 Now, when He come to Simon, He told him who he was. You believe God can tell me what your name is? Would it make you believe more? It would? Mrs. Strong... [The sister says, "Stout."--Ed.] Stout, would you believe? Go and believe, and you... It's all over. Amen.

L-185 Come. You believe? I'm also a stranger to you. I don't know you. God does know you. Do you believe that He can reveal to me what's your trouble is? And if He does, then the Lord God be blessed. Is that true? [The sister says, "Yes, it is true."--Ed.] Now don't--don't have to be worried, see, that's--that's Him, that you feel that. All right. You are suffering also from a nervous condition, mental nervous, and get tore up easy. And you're suffering with a bladder trouble, something wrong with the liver, and you're anemia. That is right. You got something...

L-186 It keeps being a man appearing here. Do you believe that God can heal you? [The sister says, "Yes, I do."--Ed.] Heal your husband, too, make him well? You think the stomach trouble will leave, and he'll be all right? That's what he is suffering with. Go put your hands on him, tell him so, and it'll--it'll leave him.

L-187 I am a stranger to you. The Lord Jesus knows both of us, doesn't He? Do you believe that God can make you well? If the Lord Jesus will reveal to me the thing that's... that you're... that's in your heart, do you believe that He will make you well? You've had some trouble. You got a--a--a gall bladder trouble, for one thing. And another thing, it's caused your bladder to have an ulcerated condition, but that's what your doctor said. Now, another thing is, that they want to operate for that. That's exactly right. Isn't that true? Now do you believe He can by-pass that? You think your faith's in Him? Now you know that isn't me doing that. You believe? All right. Go, and as you have believed, so be it to you.

L-188 We are strangers to each other, I suppose. The Lord God knows both of us. Do you believe He is able to reveal to me the things that would help you? [The sister says, "Yes, I know it."--Ed.] You, you believe He will. ["Positive."] I'm saying... "Positive," that's very good. That's very fine. Now you have many things wrong with you, so many complications and things, and the cough like, and you can't get over it. And you're real nervous. And--and that, that's right.

L-189 Then, you've got a burden on your heart, and that burden is for somebody, which is your son. And he is having a--a trouble, some domestic troubles. Him and his wife, they're always fussing and going on...?... And you're burdened for it. That is right. Now you believe with all your heart, and it'll all clear up and be gone. You believe now. The Lord bless you.

L-190 How do you do, sir? I am a stranger to you, and--and you're a stranger to me. And it's--it's begin... The visions now, I see, look like the whole house is just getting light, like kind of a whirl-like going around. See? But do you believe that the Lord Jesus could reveal to me what you're standing there for? You believe that He would? I believe that, also. I'm just speaking to you, to contact your spirit, exactly is what I'm doing it for. See, I don't know you, so it's got to be something besides me do it. I've got to get myself just so completely away from myself, that He does it Himself. You understand?

L-191 Now, one thing, you are suffering with a tremendous nervous condition, and this nervous condition has been for some time. That is right. [The brother says, "That's right."--Ed.] And that nervous condition has caused you having a high blood pressure, also. And you've had a stroke. ["That's right."] That's it. Say, you've either been a preacher, or you are a preacher. ["I am."] Now you are a preacher; I seen you stand in the pulpit. Then, have faith in God, and that nervousness will leave you. All ministers have that. You'll get all right. Go back to your pulpit, and obey God and stay true to that Word, Jesus Christ. [Mark 11:22]

L-192 You believe your back trouble left you, sitting in the chair? Do you believe it? [The sister says, "Yes."--Ed.] All right, sir, then just keep moving on, saying, "Thank You, Lord."

L-193 Come, lady. How do you do? You believe me to be His servant? [The sister says, "Sure do."--Ed.] All right. Do you believe that lady's trouble, female trouble, is going to leave you? ["Amen."] You do? Then go ahead, say, "Thank You, Lord."

L-194 Kidney trouble, back trouble, in your back. Do you believe that God will heal you and will make you well, from that? You believe that He will make you well? All right, take on your...?...

L-195 Come, lady. I'm a stranger to you. If I didn't say nothing to you, at all, would you believe that the Presence of God is here to heal the sick? [The sister says, "Certainly, I believe it."--Ed.] You would? Well, if you do, your stomach trouble... I done told you, you see. It's--it's gone. I told you, see. ["Thank God! Oh, thank You, Jesus."]

L-196 How do you, sir? God lives in the heart. And your heart has been showing up here lately, bad. Do you believe that He'll make it right? Go on your road and believe it. God bless you. You believe; He'll make it right.

L-197 You are nervous, caused you to have a stomach trouble, a peptic ulcer. It bothers you after eating. You believe it's all gone now? Go get yourself something to eat.

L-198 Kind of hard for you to get up, the back has been bothering you so bad. [The patient says, "Yes, sir."--Ed.] It won't bother you no more, if you'll believe it. Will you? ["Yes, sir."] All right, go on, and may the Lord Jesus make you completely well.

L-199 What's you so nervous about? Just go on, say, "I ain't going to be nervous no more," and you won't be. Go and believe. All right, sir.

L-200 Come, lady. Now, the Ethiopian woman, and white man, just exactly like something like that met in that day, Jesus. They had a segregation like they used to have in the South, but we don't have it no more. Jesus let them know that all people was God's people. There was no difference, see, whether she was Jew or Samaritan.

L-201 Now, if God doesn't help you, pretty soon that arthritis will cripple you up. But do you believe He is going to help you, make you well? Just as the woman did, go on your road and tell your people what great things God has done for you. All right.
Now, there is a surgeon ready to scoot out a knife.

L-202 Just a moment. It wasn't this woman. Now, just a moment, everybody reverent now. Is--is Satan, tried to do something. Here it is. Tumor, tumor, both of you. That's right. You got tumor, she has got tumor, and that devil screaming for help from one another. But the Holy Spirit is screaming, too. Who you going to believe, Him? All right. Get up out of that cot, lady. Raise up out of that stretcher. Get up off of that, and believe. Go, believe Him now. Amen.

L-203 Do you believe? All things are possible. Do you believe? How about you in the audience? [Congregation and those just healed are all rejoicing--Ed.]

L-204 Let us stand on our feet right now. Right now is the time to do it. Let every person... God bless you. Let every person stand on your feet right now. Give God praise. Raise up your hands.

L-205 Thank You, Lord Jesus! We praise You for Your greatness, and Your healing for the sick. [Congregation rejoices--Ed.]
