1 Let us bow our heads just a moment now for a word of prayer. 2 Most Holy and Righteous God, we want to thank Thee for Thy loving kindness, for it is better to us than life. And we pray that You will meet with us tonight in a very special way, and give us of Thy blessings. May we see the great outstretched hand of our loving Saviour, to minister to the sick and to the afflicted. And to give a welcome hand to those who are weary in the road of sin, tonight. To invite them to the Father’s house where they are expected to be. 3 We would ask You to remember those who have strayed from the strait and narrow way, that they too might come back to the fellowship of the Father again. 4 And we pray, tonight, Lord, that You will open the ears of the people, to hear the Gospel, and that You will circumcise the lips of the speaker. And let us just be used for Thy glory. And at the end of this service, when we go to our different places, may that we say like those who came from Emmaus, “Did not our hearts burn within us, as He talked to us along the way?” For we ask it in the Name of Thy Son, the Lord Jesus. Amen.

25 I wish to read some out of the Scriptures tonight, the 17th chapter of Saint Luke, and beginning with the—the 26th verse. And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered in the ark, and the floods came, and destroyed them all. Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they build; But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom…fire and brimstone rained from heaven, and destroyed them all. Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed. 6 And for a text, I wish to take from Genesis, the 19th chapter and the—the 22nd verse. Hasten thee, and come hither; for I can do nothing till thou has come thither.

37 This morning, I was speaking of the oncoming judgments, and tonight I wish to continue. We can feel the hot winds of the nearing judgment of the Almighty God. As we begin to feel these things, it behooves us to kind of watch where we’re living, and the hour that we are passing through. 8 And some time ago, it was my privilege to visit India. And just before I come to India, they had the great earthquake. And I was reading in the newspapers in India, that how that about two days before the earthquake come, they seemed to know that something was wrong, all the little birds that live in the crevices in the big buildings, and lived along the great stone walls. Much of India has stone walls. And all the little birds that had their nests in those crevices, left the walls. And all of the cattle that usually stood around the big buildings, in the afternoon, in the shade, and around the great stone walls; for about two days before the earthquake, all these animals and little birds went out in the middle of the field to stand.

49 You see, there was something about it, that God was taking care of His little birds and His animals. You know, the same God that directed them in the ark, in the early days, when they was destroyed by water, at the preaching of Noah, that same God still lives and reigns today, and He has His control of His beings. 10 And I was thinking, “If God was so mindful of His little birds, and His cattle and sheep, to take them away from destruction before it struck, how much more mindful of His children who has been born of His Spirit, washed in His Blood. He is mindful for them.” And as He warned the little birds to go from their dwelling places, I truly believe that He’s warning His people, today. As we see the great signs of His Coming at hand, I believe that God is warning His people to come together, and a great calling-out in this last day.

511 My subject tonight is: Will The Church Go Before The—The Tribulation? 12 Now it’s later than you think. It’s so late, until I believe it’s almost too late in America. We’re just at the end of the road. And this morning, while I was preaching on Babylon and its conditions, I thought it would be very good tonight, to bring in some of the Bible, to show how close we were to the Coming of the Lord. And we can see, we with our natural eye, that something is fixing to take place. 13 There is such a—a disturbance among the people, it’s just hard to try to have a revival. The churches are so different, and at each other’s throats, because of denominational barriers. And the Christians are so nervous, seems like, and upset. But, you know, it’s strange, but our Lord said, “When these things begin to take place, to look up,” that our redemption was drawing nigh. 14 And as we see His great mercy, as it’s being projected to us, seeing His hands of great signs and wonders; which, our eyes will be open, in a few minutes, to watch. And then it gives us this most solemn consolation, to know that the God of the Bible still lives today. And He loves His children, and He’s giving them warning. And those who are spiritual-minded, come out.

615 And we notice, in the days that Jesus was speaking of, He said, “As it was in the days of Noah, and in the days of Lot.” 16 Now, at each junction of time, God has always gave a call of mercy before a call of judgment. 17 Now if you’re historians, and I have been studying history this week, and last two or three weeks, the Ante-Nicene Fathers, of the ancient history of the church just before the Nicene Council, and then was forming the Catholic church in the fifteen hundred years of dark ages. And I see that in that Nicene writings, or the Pre-Nicene Council, that they were having just the same as we are today. Oh, how it does repeat itself! 18 And to see the condition of the church, and the condition of the people, and the signs of the times, they are wrote everywhere.

719 Now, before God ever does anything, at each junction of time, He always sends mercy, a angel, a prophet, a Message. And as every time, yet, it’s all been spurned. The church don’t want to receive It. 20 Noah. He spoke of Noah here. And he preached a hundred and twenty years. And though his message was mercy, the people failed to heed his teaching. It was something that was to save them, and yet they would not listen. And if that isn’t a very beautiful picture of the times of today! 21 Now, you might say to me, “Brother Branham, how can you say ‘beautiful,’ and painting the picture to us that you are painting?” 22 It’s beautiful because the Lord Jesus is coming soon for His Church, and it’s the most beautiful thought that any creature of God’s could ever think of; to get out of this chaos and get into His blessed Glory, where the old will be young, and the sick will be healed forever. There will be no more sorrows or heartaches. If that ain’t the most beautiful thing I can think of! And how blessed it is for those who wait for that gathering time.

823 Now we find out, as Jesus referred back in the days of Noah. Let’s just go back, because He said, “Take an example of that day.” 24 Now, when Cain and Abel. When Cain had slew Abel, and then Seth took his place. We find that Satan was trying to destroy that Seed that should come, that God had promised, that, “The Seed of the woman would bruise the head of the serpent’s seed.” And Satan was trying to destroy that royal Seed, and he thought he did it when he destroyed Abel. But God raised Seth up in his place. A very beautiful picture of the death and resurrection of Christ, and the royal Seed coming.

925 Then it’s remarkable to notice that how, on the side of Cain, they become very religious. And they were church-going people; and so was Cain a church-going person. He worshipped the Lord. He built an altar. He belonged to church. He paid his debts. He was, in every respect as a man could look at him, of being a real believer. 26 But there is only three classes of people, that’s, believers, unbelievers, and make-believers. And the world is still full of them tonight. 27 And Cain was just making belief. And out of his lineage come a great group of church-going people, very religious. 28 Now, this is most unusual, but did you notice that out of his side come the cultured, educated race? The Bible plainly states it. He said, “They were building, and they were doing great things.” Science came out of the lineage of Cain. And the great scientific, and the doctors, and the great men, come out of the lineage of Cain. 29 Where, the other side was a—a poor, peasant-type of people, but they were people who believed their God to be real. O God, number me with them!

1030 And just before the end time come, there was a great confusion. And the great church side, looked like, had won out, just as it is today, for the science. 31 And another great thing: he said, “They were building.” There has never been a time in history that building has been so great as it is now. It’s one of the signs of the end time. Never have we had a time of building. And now, even in our little city here, I can’t find enough room to go rabbit hunting any more. It’s all housing projects; just building and planting. And if we’d open our eyes, it’s one of God’s sign posts that the end is at hand.

1132 And we were preaching this morning, on the sputniks and the missiles, how they can stand in Moscow, and direct a missile to the middle of Fourth Street in Louisville, and never leave Moscow. And it’ll blow a hole in the ground, a hundred-and-seventy-five-feet deep, for a hundred and fifty miles around it. That’s how big the hole would be. Three of them would destroy the entire world, shake it from its orbit. Science, you see what side it’s on? It’s on the wicked side. 33 God expects His children to trust Him for everything that they have. But we want to trust the hand of man. I’d rather have my hopes built in Christ, taking my solemn stand upon His grace and mercy, than any educated group of people who would form an organization, say, “ This is the way.” Christ said, “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Light. And no man cometh to the Father except he comes by Me.”

1234 Therefore, you can see, it’s a great day of education. It’s a great day of world strife. And right in the midst of that, they must have had a greater scientific world than we have now. They built the pyramids. We haven’t got one thing that would build the pyramid, if you were ever near it. I’ve been at it, in Egypt, and the ones in Mexico. And way, city blocks high, would be boulders that would weigh up to hundreds of tons, built up there in the top of that great, mammoth building. And it’s so perfectly hewed out until there’s not even room for a razor blade; it was so masterly cut out. Oh, what a day of science! And, also, it set so perfect in the center of the earth, and no matter where the sun is, there is never a shadow around it. I doubt whether we could equal it, today, in our modern science. 35 But Jesus said, “As it was in that day, so will it be in the coming of the Son of God.” Now, and Noah preached a hundred and twenty years, and, notice, he was laughed at.

1336 Now, Jesus also said, that, “As it was in the days of Lot, that it would be, in the days of Lot, they were eating, drinking, marrying, giving in marriage, planting, building, selling, buying.” 37 Oh, there never was a day, that, so much commercial, as today, just used car lots and everything. So much, till, you can buy a refrigerator this year, and pay about four or five hundred dollars for it, and next year nobody wants it. It’s out of style. Don’t you see where the commercial world has your nose to the grind wheel? You can buy a car this year, and next year it’s probably as good as the one you could buy then, but it’ll depreciate a thousand dollars because they changed the radiator cap or they done some little silly something to it. It’s only a sales talk, to fulfill the Bible. “As it was in the days of Noah, and in the days of Lot.”

1438 Although, each time, angels appeared, prophets rose, and their message has always been grace, mercy, and deliverance. God’s Message has always been deliverance, just before the end time; check it through the Scriptures, how Noah preached deliverance. And they laughed at them and made fun of them, and were scoffed at. 39 And as it was in them days, so is it today. And when you go forth with a Message, that Christ has raised from the dead, as He promised He would show Hisself forth. And they do today, to that message, just like they did to the Message in the other day. 40 Lot went out into Sodom, and tried his best to get his kindred to listen to the Angels’ message, but they mocked at him and said that he was making fun. 41 Oh, what a picture of this day! When you bring to them the Message of God’s deliverance, they say, “You’re making fun of religion. You are trying to impersonate something.” Same type of a group! What an hour we’re living in! “Well, they think that they’re the only ones that’s going to be saved. They think they’re the only ones that’s preaching the Gospel.” 42 Jesus said, “These signs shall follow them that believe.” It isn’t my Word. It’s His Word.

1543 And notice, I want you to notice, quickly, the type of message it was. Oh, this just thrills my heart. When I think of Sodom and Gomorrah, had got so polluted, morally, until perverts was everywhere. 44 But just before the final, great destruction, God sent a prophet down there. And I’m thinking of, also, He sent an Angel down there, and I want you to notice the Angel’s Message. Abraham, who had took his way with the Lord’s despised few, he set out in the desert where the grounds were poor. 45 And Lot went down and become the mayor of the city, and he was a great man among sin. I’d rather not be so popular, and be right with God. But Lot was very popular, and he sit in the streets, in the city gate. He was a judge of what could come in and what could not come in. And there he was, giving his life into fornications, and knowing that in his city such things went on.

1646 If that isn’t a picture of today, in our nation; uncensored programs, all kinds of folly, meanness, device-ities! Oh, they could break it up, if they wanted to, but they don’t want to. And they can’t do it, because God said it would be this way. If they could only open their eyes and could understand! 47 And, notice, just before the great crucial hour come. Abraham and Sarah, who sit out under the oak tree, one day while they were out there, Sarah saw some Men coming. And she took off towards the tent. 48 What a difference, to the women of this day, and how different it would been down in Sodom. Come time for the men to come home, they all get on their little short clothes, and go out and get the lawn mow. What a difference!

1749 But Sarah went to the tent. And when she did, these Men came up. And Abraham looked at Them. They seemed to be rather strange-looking Men. And One of Them seemed to be the Spokesman, and when He set down and begin to talk with Abraham… 50 Abraham said, “Be seated here, and I’ll go fetch a little water, and I’ll wash Your feet. And I’ll knead a little bread. And we’ll get ready, and You can eat a morsel of meat. And then You can go on.” 51 And when he run out into the herd, and found the fatted calf, and killed it. Told Sarah to knead a little bread and to make some cakes. 52 And he talked to the Man. I believe that, somehow or other, Abraham knew Who that was. And the Man that was the speaker, had His back turned to the tent. He was the Messenger of that day. And He said, “Abraham, I’m going to visit you according to the promise, twenty-five years before. I made you a promise, and I’m going to stay with it.”

1853 Oh, blessed be the Name of the Lord! God made a promise, “In the last days, He would pour out His Spirit upon all flesh,” and He’ll stay with it. Jesus made a promise, and said, “The things that I do shall you do also,” and He’ll stay with it, for He’s just. 54 And Abraham looked at Him. And He said, “Just about this time next month, according to life,” that was with Sarah, “I’m going to visit you, and Sarah’s going to bring a baby that I promised.” Now, Abraham was a hundred years old, and Sarah was ninety.

1955 And Sarah, behind the Angel, inside the tent, went…laughed. 56 And the Angel, with His back turned, said, “Why did Sarah laugh?” That was the Messenger. Oh, do you know what I’m speaking about? What kind of a mental telepathy was that, with His back turned to the tent, and her inside? And she smiled. And He said, “Why did she laugh?” He knew it. And that was the last Message before Sodom and Gomorrah burned. Brother, if you hear It, tonight, it’s now the last Message before this world will burn. See the nature of the Angel? Who was that Angel? It was God. 57 Remember, Abraham called Him, “Lord.” And the translation there is “Elohim, the great, mighty Jehovah.” It was Jesus Christ reincarnated.

2058 Someone said, “Do you mean to say that was…? How did He get that body?” 59 Why, He just called them two Angels. And breathed a little breath, like that , and the atoms and calcium and potash come together, and Gabriel stepped in one, and another Angel in the other. And He made one for Himself. 60 Blessed be His holy Name! I am so glad, tonight, to know that that same Almighty God, Who could make Himself a body to live in, my trust is in Him, that some day He’ll raise this one up, as He has promised to do. 61 And He’s in our midst, of doing the very same thing that He done there. Oh, praise His glorious Name; giving us warning, speaking to us, telling us to make ready. Of course, He said, “A little while and the world will see Me no more. Yet, ye shall see Me, for I’ll be with you, even in you, to the end of the world.” What an hour that we’re living in!

2162 Notice, the Angel that brought fire, was the One Who performed that miracle. And we all know that the world is going to be destroyed, the next time, by fire. And the Angel that was sent to Sodom and Gomorrah…Look what Jesus said. Oh, it just thrills my soul to get to that. “As it was in the days of Noah, so will it be at the coming of the Son of man.” What did that Angel do? He had the spirit of discernment. And He said, “As it was then, so will it be when the Son of man is being revealed from Heaven.” Do you see it? Just think, that, in our midst now stands that same Angel of God, which is none other but the Lord Jesus Christ, in the form of the Holy Ghost. It’s in our midst, “In that day.” And He was God, and that was His Message just before the destruction came.

2263 Now we will notice that it was a Message of deliverance. He went down and tried to deliver the people, and they refused to hear Him. 64 And, today, it’s the same thing in our nation, among our people. I’ve had the privilege of seeing our Lord Jesus, in the meetings, do signs and wonders and great things. And the people will actually stand at the platform and know, beyond a shadow of doubt, that the—that the great, immortal, infinite God is present and performing the same kind of a miracle; and they’ll stand there and chew chewing gum, and walk off the platform, unconcerned. They don’t care.

2365 It looks to me, like, if a man had any kind of a spirituality about him, or the Spirit of God in him, and when he seen the Lord Jesus do just what He said He would do, it would thrill his heart in such a way, that he couldn’t hold his peace any longer. He would set the nation afire with the Message. “As it was in them days,” He said, “so will it be.” 66 That message went forth, and they merely laughed at it and mocked at it, as someone who was telling some kind of an idle tale. But it was of mercy, and it was of grace, and it was of deliverance. Oh, my!

2467 And the Angel said, that morning, to Lot, after He had give the message; He said, “Hasten, come hither, for I can do nothing till thou has come hither.” I want you to notice this now, ’cause we have to cut short here, on account of the prayer line. Did you notice what the Angel said? “I can’t do nothing till you come hither.” What was it? It was a message of deliverance. And before one speck of fire could fall from Heaven, Lot had to get out of Sodom. 68 And before one drop of rain fell from Heaven, Noah went into the ark. 69 And before the atom bomb can strike this nation, the Church will go in the Rapture, to meet the Lord Jesus. And if the sputniks and the missiles are set, and the hammers are pulled back, the Angels are all standing in order. Hallelujah! The great corridors of Heaven is crowded full. The harps are all in tune. The great bands are already practiced up. There’s a Homecoming time pretty soon, for the Church of the living God, who has been waiting His Coming. Everything is in order. I’m so glad. I’m getting so tired. Oh, for that great hour! 70 And to think, that, we’ve had a part in this junction time! Remember, “So shall it be in the coming of the Son of man, when the Son of man is being revealed from Heaven.” Now, remember, before the rain fell, Noah was in the ark. 71 Before the fire fell, Lot was out of Sodom. For, the Angel said, “I can’t do nothing until you come hither. I’ve got the lever in my hand, to pull and make the fires fall from Heaven.” 72 And I think that’s exactly. The Angel of destruction is holding the hand of Russia, with the atomic bombs; until the Church comes together, and one great Body of Christ. “I can’t do nothing till you come hither.” Oh, if that isn’t a blessed assurance!

2573 And if we see everything set in order, the going Home of the Church is in order. Here is the Angel of God with the same Message, performing the same signs, the same wonders, everything set in order. Branham Tabernacle, twenty-five years ago, nearly, I spoke over this same pulpit and told you these things will be happening, one of these days. Here it is! We’re at the end time. The junction is here. It’s near Home-going time for the Church. 74 The critics, making fun, mocking, scoffing, as they was with King Nebuchadnezzar and Belteshazzar. So was he in the days of Noah. So was it in the days of Lot. And they’re doing the same today. “I can do nothing until you come hither.” 75 I want you to notice, Lot came out of something that would destroy him, and Noah went into something that would save him. And that’s a type of the Church. We come out of the world, and away from this Elvis Presley and Arthur Godfrey age that we’re living in. Come out of the world and go into Christ! Come out of the world. “They are of the world, will perish with the world.” Those that are in Christ will go Home with Christ. “For those that sleep in Christ will God bring with Him when He comes.” We come out of the world, to go into Christ for the safety. Oh!

2676 “But I can do nothing till thou has come hither.” I like that. “Hurry! Escape!” The message was urgent. “Hurry! Hurry! Escape!” 77 Blessed be the Name of the Lord! Jesus promised this Gospel would be preached. It’s been going on now for years and years. And here it is at the end time, the last great sign. Just before the Angels hollered, “Hurry,” He turned and said, “Why did Sarah laugh?” The Angel of destruction, He said, “I’ve heard about their sins, and I’ve come down to see if it was the truth or not.” And He found that it was the truth. And the message was grace, and mercy, and deliverance. But, “Hurry! Hurry!” 78 Oh, children, don’t set stooped and wondering. Hurry! Hurry! Quick! The time is at hand. Run (where?) out like the little birds did, get away from these big modern walls of Babylon, these big old denominations that says, “There’s no difference in the time.” These big old unbelieving churches that says, “There’s no such a thing as Divine healing. There’s no miracles.” Get away from them walls, for they’re going to crumble. They’re going down in destruction and defeat, ’cause my God said so. 79 Run out in the middle of Calvary yonder! If the birds went to the trees, you go to the tree, too, that tree where Christ was crucified. There hang in the middle of His mercy, and cry to God until the storm is passed.

2780 Hurry! Escape! “Get hither, for I can’t do nothing till you come out.” He’s waiting on you. Get away from these old modern things. Get away from that television when them kind of a plays come on. Get…Turn that radio off when this rock-and-roll starts. Act like a lady. Dress like a lady. Act like a man. Dress like a man. Talk like a Christian. Live like a Christian. Get all the bridges burnt. Hurry! Get out! Destruction is at hand. God is sick and tired. 81 Oh, it is later than you think. The hour is at hand. The Angel’s mercy, the Angel of mercy Who sent His Message, is right here tonight. Do you believe it? Does the Church have to go before the Tribulation period? 82 Look, Israel went into Goshen, and Egypt went into darkness. Egypt got into Goshen, was taken to the promised land. Egypt went into darkness, and was buried in the Dead Sea.

2883 Hurry! Hurry! Escape! That may be your last opportunity. And remember, we see the missiles setting. We hear them, we look at it in the paper. The whole world is a trembling. Everything that God said is coming to pass. 84 Then what about it? “In the day that the Son of man shall reveal Himself from Heaven.” What is the Son of man, been revealed? Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today, and forever. Look at the 21st verse, or the 30th verse, it is. Even thus shall it be in the days when the Son of man is revealed from heaven.

2985 What is it? These Message that…This thing has never happened since Jesus was on earth. And here it is, at the end of the Gentile age. Let’s look at it just a moment, and think hard. 86 When Jesus was here on earth, He did not claim to be a healer. He said, “It’s not Me that doeth the works; it’s My Father. But I only do what the Father shows Me to do.” Saint John 5:19, He said, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing in Himself, but what He sees the Father doing.” 87 If you notice Philip, when he first got converted. No…He first started His ministry, the Lord Jesus, what happened? 88 Let’s see how the Son of man is going to reveal Himself. If He’s the same yesterday, today, and forever, He’ll have to reveal Himself like He did yesterday. If He reveals the same, He’ll have to reveal the same Message. Quietly, and watch.

3089 When Peter come to Him after His ministry, Saint John 1. Peter walked up to Him. He wasn’t called Peter then; he was called another name. And when he walked up to Him, He said, “Thou art Simon, and your father is Jonas.” That old fisherman thought, “How did He know me?” 90 And then Philip, from Bethesda, also, he goes over around the mountain, and he finds a friend, Nathanael, under a tree, praying. He said, “Come, see who we found: Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.” Watch now how He revealed Himself. 91 And he said, “Now could there be any good thing come out of Nazareth?” 92 He said, “Come and see.” That’s the best answer any man can give another. Don’t criticize it. Come, find out for yourself. Oh, if we could only be that sincere, today. 93 And on his road around, he begin to instruct him. Why, he said, “Peter, yesterday, a man…Cephas, you know the old fisherman?” “Yes.” 94 “He walked up before this Man, and He told him who he was and who his daddy was.” “Ah,” said Nathanael, “I don’t know about that.”

3195 And when he walked up where Jesus was, into the line where He was praying for the sick, Jesus pierced those eyes at him, and He said, “Behold, an Israelite in whom there is no guile.” 96 How did He know he was an Israelite? The Greeks and all, dressed alike and looked alike. How did He know he was an Israelite? He was God manifested in flesh. What did He do? He looked and He seen him. He said, “When did You know me, Rabbi?” 97 He said, “Before Philip called you, when you were under the tree, I saw you.” 98 He said, “That settles it. You are the Son of God. You are the King of Israel.” 99 Jesus said, “Because I told you this, do you believe?” Said, “Then you can see greater things than this.” 100 But the unbelieving church member stood by. Oh, just as reverent and staunch as they could be. Certainly. They were standing there with great educations, great theological seminary experiences. They said, “This Man is a fortuneteller. He’s Beelzebub.” 101 Jesus said, “You say that to Me, I’ll forgive you. But when the Holy Ghost is come and does the same thing, one word against It will never be forgiven, in this world nor neither in the world to come.”

32102 There was a little woman who had an issue of blood. And she come through the crowd and she touched His garment, for she said within herself, “If I can touch the Man, I’ll be made well.” She touched Him. She run off in the crowd, and sit down, or whatever she did. And Jesus turned about, said, “Who touched Me?” 103 Peter rebuked Him. He said, “Look, the whole crowd is touching You. Why do You say ‘Who touched Me?’” 104 He said, “But I got weak. Virtue, or strength, went from Me.” And He looked around, with those eyes, until He found her. How did He do it? That we don’t know. But He’s the same yesterday, today, and forever. And He revealed Himself to the Jewish nation in that manner.

33105 When He come to the Samaritans, the woman was at the well, a lovely Samaritan woman. 106 Remember, there’s only three nations of people. That’s, Jew, Gentile, and Samaritan; Ham, Shem, and Japheth’s people. And the Samaritan was half Jew and half Gentile. And you remember when it started, when they married their women, and so forth. 107 And this young woman come up there, which we believe in our country to be a woman of ill-fame, but she wasn’t. This boy from India could tell you that. This is an eastern Book, and you are trying to read it with a western education.

34108 When I went to India, and got off of the—of the airship, at Bombay, there was the bishop of the Methodist church, and all of them, standing there. Said, “Don’t you tell us you’re a missionary, Mr. Branham. We know more about the Bible than you Yankees will ever know.” And that’s true. He said, “We had the Bible two thousand years before you was a nation.” That’s right. Saint Thomas church is still there, where Saint Thomas went down and preached. “But,” he said, “we understand that God has visit you, to make this Bible live again.” Said, “That’s what we want to know.” That’s it. The world is hungry for the living bread.

35109 This Samaritan woman, as she stood at the well, Jesus said to her, “Woman, bring Me a drink.” 110 Well, she said they had segregation. But He let her know that there was no difference. God made, of one blood, all peoples. 111 And He said, “If you knew Who you were talking to, you would ask Me for a drink.” 112 And the conversation went on till He caught her spirit. Then He found out what her trouble was. He said, “Go get your husband and come here.” 113 What happened when the Jew was told that? The Jew said, “You’re the Son of God.” That’s right. 114 What happened to the Samaritan when she was told that, said, “Go get your husband and come here”? 115 She said, “Sir, I perceive that You are a Prophet. Now, we know that when the Messiah, which is called Christ, when He comes, He’ll tell us these things. But who are You?” He said, “I am He that speaks to you.” 116 She run into the city, and she said, “Come, see a Man that told me the things that I’ve done. Isn’t this the Messiah?”

36117 And He never did that, one time, to a Gentile. Why? He left it till this day. That’s what He said here, “In the days when the Son of man shall reveal Himself from Heaven.” He’s revealing Himself now, to the Church, for mercy. The next time He reveals Hisself, is in destruction, to those who has rejected the Message. 118 God be merciful for…to us, while we pray just a moment. Softly And Tenderly , Sister Gertie, if you will.

37119 I just wonder, tonight, feeling sorry for you standing around the wall. And I can feel your anticipations. I just wonder, oh, if you’ll be honest with yourself and with God, just a moment. 120 Do you really want to hurry and get out of this? There’s a Man in the presence tonight, called the Lord Jesus. He has the ticket for you, and all you have to do is just give Him your heart. He’ll wash it in His Own Blood, and cleanse you from all sin and doubt, and will take you to His Heaven when He comes. 121 And it might come before morning, the sputniks. There’s not one thing the science says… You hear it, every day, on the radio, when they’re on the television, when they’re interviewing these science. They say, “There’s not a thing to hinder this world from being blowed up at any minute.” It just takes a good drink of Vodka, and they’ll pull a lever, and that’s it. 122 Hurry! The Message is urgent. Hurry! Escape! Run for your life! Get out of it. Come out from this modern Babylon. Get away from the walls. Can’t you feel something tugging at your heart? If you’re real spiritual, and God is speaking to you! Surely, if He spoke to those little birds, He can speak to you.

38123 Would you raise your hand to Him? We haven’t got room to put the people around the altar. But if you’ll just raise your hand, and say, “God, be merciful to me.” God bless you, brother. God bless you. Oh, my! All over the building. I don’t know how many hands there is. “Be merciful to me, O God. This is my hand. I want to escape, Lord. Before morning, I might hear a scream, I looked out and the rainbows will be floating through the skies, the Son of man would be coming.” 124 What a terrible day, that you missed your opportunity. You stood right around your church, didn’t you? “Oh,” you said, “mama belonged to this.” That’s all right, brother. That’s all right, sister. But mama’s salvation will never take you in. Mama lived in one day, and you’re living in another.

39125 Hear the Message of the Lord, and hear the warning of the Spirit. What kind of a Spirit was It, that One who discerned how Sarah was laughing on the inside of a tent? The Angel of the Lord. 126 Now with your heads bowed, I want to pray for each one of you. 127 What did you do when you put your hands up? You say, “Did that mean anything, Brother Branham?” Sure did. If you really meant that, it meant the difference between death and Life. The Message is urgent. Won’t you put your hand up right now? “Be merciful, God, to me.” 128 God bless the little girl. God bless the lady. God bless you; you, sonny; you, you, young man. Little children all along these altars has got their little hands up. Well, bless their little hearts! You say, “They don’t mean that.” Oh, yes, they do. 129 Jesus said, “Suffer little children to come to Me, forbid them not, for such is the kingdom of God.” They may never live to be in maturity. But, they will be. They’ll never…They’ll escape, maybe, all the great things that we’ve had to go through with.

40130 “God, be merciful!” When you raise your hands, it shows that there is something in you has made a decision. Your body would be dead if there wasn’t something in you, that said, “Raise your hands.” That was the Spirit. Then you raise your hand. God witnessed it. The Spirit made you raise your hand. 131 God bless you, and all the little children back there. Those little, colored children, too, along there, God bless your little hearts, honey. God loves you. Sure. 132 We’re going out of here, one of these days. I don’t know when it’ll be, but it—it’s coming. Hurry, right quick, get into the kingdom! You say, “Well, I’ve heard that before.” You might hear it your last time, too. Let this be the time.

41God bless you back there, young lady. 133 Get away from all this old modern stuff, these old walls. They’ll all fall down. All this rock-and-roll and all this stuff will perish with the world. Don’t you be included in the world. You get out of there. God is a coming for His Church. He’s chose you, that’s the reason He’s speaking to you. The Message is urgent. Come quickly! 134 Now, while we pray, be sincere now and ask God to be merciful to you.

42135 Blessed Lord, there might be people here who has never seen the working of the powers of God before, but something down in their heart has said, “Raise your hand. It’s Me.” And they see that there is an urgent call. They, they’re intelligent enough to look around and to see that there is something fixing to happen. 136 Little children, many of them put their little hands up. God, be merciful to them. Many of the old and the middle-aged, they put their hands up. The teenagers put their hands up. They’re wanting mercy, God. And I’m so glad to know that the first revelation of Christ is mercy; the second revelation is judgment. O God, thank You for these who have taken mercy tonight, mercy’s road. “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are they that do hunger and thirst for righteousness; they shall be filled.”

43137 Light their lights, tonight, Lord. May they be candles that’s set on a hill, that cannot be hid, but give light unto the schools and the places where they’ll be connected, from hereafter. Grant it, Lord. May they be lights that’ll shine for the glory of God. Bless them. 138 And in some day, in a better world, Lord, may we all meet around that great table of God, at that Wedding Supper. Keep Thy Spirit upon us, Lord. Bless those standing around the walls, and out in the vestibule and around, that raising their hands, and so forth. Be with them, Lord. They’ve stood, and cramping limbs, tonight. But, be merciful. Grant these things.

44139 They are the fruits of this little hurried-up Message tonight. I pray that the angels of God will make it so real to their hearts, that they won’t—they won’t miss any of It. And they’re the fruits, and I present them to You. And You give them to Jesus, because they are Your love gifts to Him. “No man can pluck them from the hand, ’cause no one is greater than God.” And I pray that You’ll keep them securely safe until Jesus comes for them. 140 May the rest of them hurry, Lord, and hurry, for the Message is urgent. We must get out quickly before destruction comes. And now, Lord God, I pray that You’ll send Your Angel, that same One that sit with Abraham. Grant it, Lord. And could tell what Sarah was doing, back in the tent. And that was the Angel of the Covenant. That was the Angel that brought mercy before fire fell. Most any time, fire could fall now, the atoms that would break the whole world in two. May He come tonight and give mercy to us, Lord, for we ask it in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

45141 Oh, there’s something about the blessed old Gospel, It seems to scour you out. I love It. 142 Let’s just sing that one time, “Softly and tenderly Jesus is calling.” Everybody, let’s just raise our hands to Him. Will you do it? Softly and tenderly Jesus is calling, Calling for you and for me, Though we have sinned, He has mercy and pardon, Pardon for you and for me. Come home, come home, (Just shut in with Christ now.) Ye who are weary, come home; Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling, Calling, O sinner, come home!

46143 [Blank spot on tape—Ed.] …never been in one of our healing services before, let’s see your hands. Never been in the services? That’s good. I’m so glad to have you here. 144 Now, I don’t claim to be a healer. I claim that Jesus is not dead, but He’s alive. I’m not a healer. There’s no healers. Christ has already healed you. “By His stripes you were healed.” 145 But I want to ask you newcomers something. Now, you perhaps go to a church. Many of you raised your hand just then, was raised your hand for prayer, a while ago. If you have no church of choice, we welcome you to the Branham Tabernacle here, where our dear Brother Orman Neville, a godly man that teaches nothing but the truth, out of the Bible. You’re welcome to our fellowship. We just…Not a denomination. We’re just a church here, a fellowship. We are Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian, Pentecostal, Lutheran, we’re all. We are Christians who love you. And we pray that you’ll find you…If you can’t come here, get you a good church home, somewhere, where they really preach the Gospel, and so that you can be fed by the Spirit of God.

47146 All around, through the building, tonight… If the Lord Jesus has risen from the dead, and I’ve told you the Truth, then God is obligated to His Word, to make it so. See? 147 Oh, don’t be afraid to trust It. That’s either the Bible, It’s the Truth, or It is not the Truth. If It isn’t the Truth, It’s the biggest deceiver that’s ever been written, for It’s got millions deceived. I’ve stood, many time, with the Koran in one hand and the Bible in the other, before the Mohammedans, and say, “One is right and the other one is wrong. Let the God, that’s real God, speak.” Don’t be afraid. He’ll never forsake. He’ll never leave.

48148 Now, the Lord Jesus, when He was here on the earth, the works that He did, which we’ve just quoted, He promised that He would come again before the end of time and would do the same things. He said He would do it through His Church. Now, He said, “I am the Vine, ye are the branches.” Now, the Vine doesn’t bear fruit. The branches bears fruit. 149 Now, if it’s a pumpkin vine, it’ll bear pumpkins. If it’s a watermelon vine, it’ll bear watermelons. If it’s a cantaloupe vine, it’ll bear cantaloupes. If it’s a grape vine, it’ll bear grapes. 150 If it’s a Christian vine, it’ll bear Christ, the Life of Christ, the works of Christ. See? Then, our spirits has to be energized by something.

49151 I’m so glad to be in Him, tonight. You don’t know, little flock, how it makes me feel, know here, I’m forty-eight years old, an old man. And I’ve preached now for twenty-seven years. My shoulders are stooping. And, oh, I realize I’m not that little boy that used to play marbles out here on the street. But there’s one thing I do know, I’m His servant. I’d rather have that than all that I know. For what good would anything else do?

50152 I’ve tried to be honest with you people. I’ve tried to do everything that I could to be honest and just and true, in your presence and in the presence of God, because I know He watches us all the time. Now, if I could… 153 I’ll tell you now. This little Message tonight, I tried to quit early, but I’m praying that God will take the rest of it to your heart. Hurry! Hurry! Hurry! Get out of Babylon, just as quick as you can. Don’t stay in the world. Get away from that nonsense. Get out! Get out here, free, with Christ. Get away from those things. For you don’t know what hour that there may not be nothing but just powder left on this earth, just gases, and the old world blowed to pieces. It can happen before this service closes, and it wouldn’t contradict Scriptures at all. It would just fulfill Scriptures. The Gospel has been preached. Here comes the last Message.

51154 Now, don’t look for great things in the future. America has done sinned away her day of grace. That’s exactly right. You mark it in your Bibles and find out whether I’m right or wrong. She’s been on the down-grade now for two years. 155 Billy Graham said, at his breakfast not long ago. He held the Bible up. He said, “ Here is the standard. Paul went into a city and had a convert, come back the next year and there was thirty.” Said, “I go into the city and have a revival, of twenty thousand converts, and come back in six months and can’t find maybe twenty.” 156 What’s the matter? There’s just so many fish in the pond. There’s just so many that God knew before the foundation of the world, and is predestinated to Eternal Life. When that last one comes in, that settles it. 157 There was just so many birds went into the ark, just so many different animals went in that ark. And the door was closed, by God, and it left the rest of them out, though they tried to get in.

52158 And my dear friend, if you’re not in, you get in right now, while God is a calling, ’cause the doors of mercy might close, to the Gentile, at any time. Now, and now what I do, now, will have…What I speak now… 159 I have spoke, and my words, if I had preached for hours, it wouldn’t mean half as much as one word from our lovely Christ. Now, but what I’ve preached, I’ve either told the Truth or a lie. If I’ve told a lie, God will have nothing to do with it. If I have told the Truth, God will stand behind His Word. How many you say? Give out fifty cards?

53160 I’ll show you why we have to give out cards, when you have a meeting of discernment. I don’t say that He will do it. He might not. But I want you to be honest with me. How many in here would like to come into the line now? Raise your hands, all over the building, wherever you are. Everybody in the building that wants to come into the line, raise your hands. Now how would…Who would be first? See? You couldn’t do it. We have to give out the cards, in order to keep a—a line. 161 Now, he has give out fifty cards. And let’s just call from all around, through that bunch of cards, and that’ll give everybody a chance to get on.

54162 Now, it isn’t what happens here . It’s what happens here . See? It isn’t, touch me. It’s, touch Him. How many knows that the New Testament, the Book of Hebrews, said that right now, that, “Christ is a High Priest that can be touched by the feeling of our infirmities”? Well, how would you know you touched Him? By, He speaks right back, just like He did. If He’s the same yesterday, today, and forever, He has to manifest Himself just the same as He did yesterday and forever. So, you see the last message to the Jews and them, how He did it? Now this is the la-… 163 If He manifest Hisself any other way, through a denomination, He would be unjust. He never manifested Hisself in a denomination, because there was no denomination in His days. He manifested Hisself through the supernatural, as we said this morning, like the handwriting on the wall, the interpretation. He’s the same yesterday, today, and forever. God be with you now.

55164 He said, “One to fifty.” All right. Who has prayer card number one, would you just raise up your hand. Look at your cards. Somebody on the cots, or wherever, and can’t get up, everybody look at each others card. It’s just a little card. I don’t think these have my picture on them, even. It’s just a plain little card. Number one, wherever you are. [A brother says, “Right here.”—Ed.] All right. Would you just stand where you are, sir. Number two, would you raise your hand. The lady right here . Number three, would you raise your hand. [Blank spot on tape.]

56165 We are strangers. This is our first time of meeting then, in life, I suppose. Then, the Lord God knows both of us. He knows all about you, and He knows all about me. But if He, in His kindness, would be able… 166 If I would say to you, “Oh, sir, you’re sick. And I’m…You’re going to get well.” You’d have a right to doubt that. That audience would have a right to be stumped, on that. Certainly. You’ve only got my word. 167 But if the Holy Spirit will come and tell him something that he has done, something that I know nothing about, that has been, he’ll know whether that’s the truth or not. 168 Then if He knows what was, surely, if that’s right, He can tell you what will be, and it’ll be right. 169 You should believe that, Mrs. Cox, shouldn’t you? Mrs. Cox sitting there, I just happened to notice her, from Kentucky, over here. That’s Mrs. Wood’s…here somewhere in the church, her mother. Cancer done eat her face off, in here . 170 I was coming down from up in the north woods. My wife called me, said, “I’ve never seen anybody so tore up in my life, as—as Mrs. Wood.” And Mr. and Mrs. Wood are my bosom friends. And I went over to the lady, come back out with THUS SAITH THE LORD. The cancer died. 171 There, the woman setting there, and you can hardly tell what… Would you just raise up, Mrs. Cox, so the people could see. The whole side of her nose and all, eat down with a cancer, plumb into her eyes. Turn around so the audience can see you back there. Cancer. He’s always right. He’s never wrong.

57172 Now, if the Lord our God will reveal to this brother, let him be the judge, if the Lord our God will reveal to him what he’s here for. Or, something like He did the woman at… Or, like He would say like He did to Philip, when Nathanael found him…or Nathan-…Philip found Nathanael. And will reveal it; would you all believe, all you people believe? If—if the man knows I don’t know nothing about him; and I’ve got my hands up, I don’t know nothing about him. He put his hands up, that I didn’t know him, or he don’t know me. Then if the Lord will reveal it, you all will accept it, will you? How many? Raise up your hands, so I can just see. Now, the Lord bless you.

58173 Now, sir, I’m just standing here, waiting to see what He’ll tell me, so you be the judge. And if anyone can look, the man has got his eyes closed, so you see it couldn’t be a telepathy. Just remain with your eyes closed. If our Lord Jesus…If He will reveal it, we’ll be grateful to Him. 174 But the man who stands before me, what he’s here for, it’s a spiritual affair that he wants prayer for. That is true. If that is right, raise your hand so the people can see. Now do you believe? Never seen him in my life, but here it was. Something bothering his mind. Now, more I would talk to him, more would be said. Now be reverent. 175 What did that Angel do? He had His back turned, and He said, “Why did Sarah laugh?” She said, “I never laughed.” Said, “Oh, yes, you did.” Cause, she was scared.

59176 Now if the audience can still hear my voice, over the speakers. The man seems to be going from me. I see a woman standing. That’s the main thing the man is here for. It’s for his wife, and she is not here with him. And she has got a female trouble, a lady’s trouble, and she’s got trouble with her back. That’s the truth. 177 You’re not from this city. You’re from another city, that’s called Marysville. That’s correct. Now go home and find it the way you’ve believed it. It’ll be that way, in the Name of the Lord. God bless you. That handkerchief, you won’t need it to go on her; you had it in your pocket for her, but you won’t need it.

60178 I do know you. I don’t know your name. But you’re a woman that was standing there at the back door, one day, that the Angel of the Lord come to me, when your first times here at the tabernacle, and revealed something was a perfect secret. And you were healed, with a cancer. That’s right. But I have no idea what’s the matter with you now. I don’t know. You know that. I have no idea what’s wrong with you. But, if the Lord will reveal it, you will accept it? [The sister says, “Yes.”—Ed.] I… 179 You’re not here for yourself. You’re here for a child. And that child is afflicted. And the affliction is in the spine. Like, can’t stand up, or something like that. And I see the parents of that child, with a rosary. They’re Catholic. And an older couple, it’s, their grandparents are Catholic, too. And you’re standing for the child. Take your handkerchief and put it on it. Don’t doubt, you can have what you ask for. Now believe with all your heart.

61You believing? 180 I suppose this lady is a stranger to me. We’re strangers to each other, but the Lord Jesus knows both of us. Now here’s a perfect picture. Here’s a picture of Saint John 4. A colored woman, a white man; in that day, it was a Samaritan, and a Jew, two races of people. Jesus let her know, quickly, that there was no difference. We’re all God’s creatures. The country we live in, changing our color, has nothing to do with it. God wanted His people that way. He made man white, black, brown, yellow, red. He made them that way. That’s His business. And He loves us all. But here’s a perfect picture, two people that’s never met before, and our first time, two difference races. 181 Now, I perceive that you are a believer. You’re a Christian, because your spirit is welcome. And that great Angel of God would not welcome nothing that was wrong. Certainly not. You see that picture up there, that Angel on that picture there, that Light up above where I’m standing? That’s what’s making you feel the way you’re feeling now. It’s just coming all down over you. Just a moment, Sister Gertie.

62182 It seems to be something, I can’t catch the lady just right. Yes. The woman is suffering with a nervous condition. She gets nervous. She drops things. That’s right. And then you got a spiritual problem that you’re trying to solve out, because you been praying over for some time. That is true. And you got arthritis. I see you trying to get from your bed, slow, especially of a morning. You got something wrong in your spine, too, a spinal trouble. That’s THUS SAITH THE LORD. 183 You believe me to be God’s prophet? You believe the same God that knowed Simon would know you? If God will reveal that, will it make you a strong believer, that you get what you get? They call you, “Nanny.” And your last name is Johnson. And you live in New Albany. Return home and be well, in the Name of the Lord Jesus. Amen.

63Just believe. 184 Are we strangers to each other, lady? We are. Just so—just so the people will see, would you just raise your hand, to say, “We are strangers. Just…” Now the Lord God knows us both. And if He will grant this request, you will be happy for it? Now some of you has begin to believe. 185 Now, there keep being a white man appear before this woman here. 186 It’s the man sitting right there. You got…That’s all right, just stay where you’re at. You got kidney trouble. You got back trouble. And you got stomach trouble. That’s right. Now go, believing, and it won’t bother you any more. 187 You just believe. I challenge your faith to believe it. How many does believe it with all your heart? All right, then look and live.

64188 If the Lord our God will reveal to this woman, who is a total stranger to me. And there is our hands up, that we’ve never met before, knowingly. And if the Lord our God will reveal to this woman, and do the same thing that He did, like the woman at the…Samarian woman. Will you all believe with all your heart, then? That will settle it forever, with you? 189 See, I’ve got a meeting coming up. I got to leave tomorrow. And I got to go to Virginia, and a great meeting coming. I don’t want to get too weak, standing here. All right, I shall take time, just a moment, with the woman. And you believe. 190 Ever who the woman is, she’s got a horrible-looking darkness following her. Oh, it’s—it’s sorrow. You’ve just had some trouble. You lost a child, a baby. That’s right. And another thing, you’re bothered with a female trouble, a lady’s trouble, and a back trouble. And you also have some kind of a something that happens to you, like fainting. Oh, epilepsy. That’s right. You’re not from this city, either. You crossed the river, to get here. You’re from Louisville. You live at a number, called, 1754 West Oak Street. Your name is Margaret Quinn. All right.

65191 Lord God, Creator of heavens and earth, give to this woman that what she desires, for I ask this enemy to leave her, in Jesus’ Name. Amen. 192 God bless you, lady. Don’t doubt no more. Go and receive now what you’ve asked for. 193 You believe with all your heart? 194 How do you do, sir? This is our first time meeting, I suppose. Do you believe the Lord our God is here to perform and give to you the things you desire? [The brother says, “Yes, I do. I know He’s here. I can see Him.”—Ed.] I admire your courage. And you’re here for a legitimate thing. You want to get rid of drinking and smoking. Well, it’s gone from you now. Go, and God’s peace be with you and make yourself believe. God be with you. “If thou canst believe, all things are possible.”

66195 You want to get rid of that back trouble? Go down there, praising Him, and you’ll get rid of it. Just go, believing it, with all your heart. 196 “If thou canst believe,” the Bible said. Be reverent. Believe what God is doing to be the Truth. 197 I know you. I’m just going to pray for you. I know your trouble. 198 Lord God, be merciful to the woman and grant this request, for I ask it in Jesus’ Name. Amen. I don’t remember…Is your name Baker? [The sister says, “Yes, sir.”—Ed.] That’s right. I—I remember now. God bless you. Go right ahead now and believe Him with all your heart. All right.

67199 I don’t know you, lady. We’re strangers. That’s right. You want to eat your supper, get rid of that stomach trouble, that ulcer you had all this time? Go, eat, then, and Jesus Christ make you well. 200 I do know you. And I know what your trouble is. You don’t know—you don’t know that I know it, but, I—I do know it. So being that you’re come here at the tabernacle, I won’t say it. But the arthritises will leave you if you’ll just believe it. You go ahead. God bless you. 201 Let’s say, “Thanks be to God.” [Congregation says, “Thanks be to God.”—Ed.]

68202 You’re nervous, too. Got a stomach trouble bothering you. You believe that the Lord Jesus will make you well? [The sister says, “I do.”—Ed.] Then go, and God’s peace rest upon you. Just want to lay hands on you, and to believe with all of our heart, that God will do it. 203 I’m a stranger to you, I suppose, lady. Do you know me? You come here to the church? You do. I’ve never seen you. Course, so many people comes in. All right. You go, believing, and that female trouble will leave you, the lady’s trouble you had. Do you believe? [The sister says, “Yes.”—Ed.] All right, then go, and God will be with you and help you, I’m sure.

69204 Do you believe, sir? You believe the Lord will take that stiffness away from you, and make you well, that arthritis? Go right on back through there, thanking Him and praising Him for it, then you’ll get all right. 205 You’re bothered with nervous trouble, aren’t you, lady? That’s a mental nervousness. You get real weak, suffer with spells, especially late in the afternoon. Even Satan has told you you was going to lose your mind. That’s right. But it’s a lie. You’re going to be well. It’s nothing but just the time of life that you’re coming into. It’s menopause. Every woman has to come to that. But you’re going to be all right now. Do you believe my word? Then go, thank God, and sing songs and rejoice, and be made well.

70206 All right, lady. I’m a stranger to you, too. The funny thing, when I said that to her, it left you the same time, ’cause that’s exactly what your trouble was, nervousness. Now you go on your road, and believe with all your heart, and you’ll get well. Amen. Go and believe with all your heart. 207 I know you, lady. I know your face, but I don’t…You believe God will heal you? I know who you are now. You’re a lady comes here at the tabernacle. You believe God will heal you? Let me just pray for you. 208 Lord God, Creator of heavens and earth, make the woman well, I pray, in Jesus’ Name. Amen. 209 Don’t doubt. I can’t think the woman’s name, but I know who she…

71210 How about you people out here in the audience? Are you believing? Now sit real quiet. Be real reverent. In this direction here , somebody. I challenge your faith, in the Name of Jesus Christ, to believe this. 211 A colored lady has her hands up, there. Do you believe, lady, me to be God’s servant? [The sister says, “Yes, sir.”—Ed.] If God will reveal to me what’s your trouble, will you accept it? [“Yes, sir.”] You want prayer for yourself and that little girl. For your eyes, sitting there. That’s right. Put your hand over on the child, and believe with all your heart. 212 Lord God, I pray that they will receive it, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

72Do you believe? 213 There is the Angel of the Lord standing by this black-headed fellow. I—I believe he comes to church here, though. I’m not sure. Sir, if I know you, I don’t know what’s wrong with you, unless God would reveal it. But it’s some of His mercy is standing here. And you got an—an ulcer on the foot, the left foot. That’s right. Your—your faith touched something. 214 What about you, over in this sections, do you believe? Have faith, then. Don’t doubt.

73215 Here, the lady sitting here with a black hat on, with glasses on. You got a prayer card, lady? Right behind that little boy there, at the end of the row, you! You have a prayer card? You don’t have a prayer card. Do you believe me to be God’s prophet? If God will reveal to me what your trouble is, will you accept it then? You have heart trouble. That’s your husband sitting next to you, and he’s got gland trouble. Now go and believe. Who believes Him? 216 What about this colored man sitting here? Do you believe, sir? [The brother says, “Yes, sir.”—Ed.] You believe me to be His servant? [“Yes.”] You’ve wanting prayer, aren’t you? [“Yes.”] If God will reveal to me, from me to you, do you believe He…that you could accept it? [“Yes.”] You got sinus trouble. And you got a rupture. That’s right. 217 How about any of you in there, do you believe?

74218 There’s another colored woman right behind this lady back here. You got your hand up, sister. You want something from the Lord? You believe me to be His servant? It’s a voice trouble, you’re suffering with. That’s right. You believe He healed you? 219 Right out from you there, looking around the side, right out from you there at the end of the row; about one, two, three, four, five people, back there. You got thyroid trouble. You believe that God will make you well? 220 What about right back here? The man on the end of the seat, right back in the row here. You got ulcerated colitis. That’s right, sir. You believe God heals you? Then stand up and accept it, in the Name of the Lord Jesus. 221 God bless you. I’ve never seen you. You’re a stranger to me. But God knows you.

75222 You believe it, every one of you? Do you believe the same Angel of God that come to Abraham, in mercy, Who knowed the secrets of the thoughts of Sarah, the same One that stood on the earth and know the secrets of the thoughts of the mind, don’t you believe that He’s here now? The same God, just before the world burns again in a destruction, don’t you believe He’s here? Then let’s accept Him. Let’s believe Him. Let’s take Him as our healer, right now. How many of you will believe that? 223 How many of you really believe? Put your hands up. Now, lay, you put your hands down. 224 The Bible said this, “These signs shall follow them that believe.” 225 Put your hands on one another, then, if you’re believers. You pray for the person next to you. And the one next to you, pray for you that’s being prayed for. Each one of you, pray one for another now, anywhere in the building. I challenge this faith.

76The lady there with TB, forget about it. You’re healed. 226 You with prostate trouble, sitting there, sir, getting up at nights. Forget it. You won’t have to do it no more. God bless you. 227 I challenge you to make an act of believing. Do you do it? Then pray, each one of you, in your own way. Lay your hands on somebody and pray for somebody next to you, while I pray for all of you. 228 Lord God, Creator of heavens and earth, author of everlasting Life, giver of every good gift, send Thy Spirit just now upon this people. 229 I condemn the works of the devil, because the devil is exposed. Satan, you can’t hold them any longer. Their faith is mounting up, and they got their hands on each other. And I challenge you, that you have lost the battle, and judgment is at hand. Come out of them, in the Name of Jesus Christ. Go from them, in Jesus’ Name. 230 Do you believe Him? Raise your hands and give Him praise for your healing. If you’re a cripple, stand up on your feet; Christ makes you well. If you’re lame, got your hands crippled, raise them up; it’s all over. Here’s a crippled woman here, standing up. 231 Praise the Lord! Let’s say, “Praise the Lord,” everybody. [Congregation says, “Praise the Lord!”—Ed.] Amen. Brother Neville. 
