Mother would not be complete There without her family

89 Then we shall see Him. Then we shall be like Him. Then we shall worship Him. Then we shall see mother as God wants her.

Mother would not be complete There without her family.

90 Cause, the greatest time of all of her life is to see the children around the table, and all of them healthy and happy; and—and—and to see her pour the coffee, or whatever she does, and fixes supper, and her and dad sit down. Why, that’s the happiest time in mama’s life, see her kiddies all at home.

91 Now, don’t miss, don’t be missing that Day. Let the great chain of your family be hooked together, link by link. Let every spoke be in the wheel. Then when we sit down with our families and groups, across the canopies of Eternity, what a Day that will be! Then we’ll understand.

That’s desperation

Share

76 Notice what the Bible said here also, in James 16, 5:16, said, if…“Confessing our faults,” getting right, making ready for it, “confess our faults one to another.” Having no—no faults…Ask people to pray for you, confessing our faults one to another, and praying one for the other. There you are. With love, love, that I got confidence I can confess to you my wrong; and you can confess to me your wrong. And I love you well enough that I’ll pray for you, and you pray for me; and we’ll stay with it, with effectual fervent prayer, until it’s answered. That’s, that’s desperation. That’s what we should have all the time.

He will prove His Word by you

Share

67 But Abraham didn’t stagger anywhere at all, of unbelief. He believed that God was able to perform that which He had promised, that God would prove His Word, no matter how long it took. But instead of getting weaker each time, like we are prone to do, he got stronger all the time. “If it didn’t happen today, tomorrow it will be a greater miracle, ’cause it’s one day older.” That was God, that was God in Abraham, for he knew that God proved all of His Words to be so.

If His children will only take His Word, so He can prove It by you! That’s the only way He can prove His Word.

He doesn’t prove It to unbelievers. They can’t be proved; they are unbelievers. But, It’s not to unbelievers. It’s not for unbelievers.

68 It’s to him that believes. And if He can find somebody who will believe His Word, He will prove His Word by you. And sometimes sickness and things happen to us that way, that God can prove Himself.

Do you remember the blind man that Jesus found? They said, “Who sinned, he or his father, his mother?”

69 He said, “In this case, neither, but that the works of God might be made known.” See, it happened to the boy so that Jesus could be glorified. Sometimes sickness is not a curse, it’s a blessing, that we can stick our faith out there and call those things which are not, as though they were.

Proving His Word 65-0426 William Branham

But we need to have it made alive to us

Share

We have accepted the Bible, we have accepted the great truths of it, but it still is not real to most people because the revelation by the Spirit is not there. The Word has not been quickened. The Bible says in II Corinthians 5:21 that we have become the righteousness of God by our union with Jesus Christ. Did you get it? It says that WE ARE THE VERY RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD HIMSELF by being IN CHRIST. It says that He (Jesus) became SIN for us. It does not say He became sinful, but became SIN for us that by our union with Him we might become the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God. If we accept the fact (and we must) that He literally became SIN for us by His substitution for us, then we must also accept the fact that we by our union with Him have become the VERY RIGHTEOUSNESS of God. To reject one is to reject the other. To accept the one is to accept the other. Now we know the Bible says that. It can’t be denied. But the revelation of it is missing. It is not real to the majority of God’s children. It is just a good verse in the Bible. But we need to have it made ALIVE to us. That will take revelation.

But I’m no good

Share

91 I’m looking at a man now, setting in the back of the room here. I remember telling him that, on an old barn stall one day, by a manger.

And he said, “But I’m no good.”

92 I said, “I know you’re not.” And I said, “I’m not, either.” But I said, “You’re looking at what you are. And quit looking at what you are, and look what He is.”

He said, “If I could just get rid of these cigarettes, Brother Branham, I—I—I would be a Christian.”

93 I said, “Don’t get rid of them. You’re trying to get good and then come to Him. He never come to save good man; He come to save bad man that knowed they were bad.”

He said, “Well…”

I said, “Listen, you don’t want to go to hell, do you?”

He said, “No.”

94 I said, “Well, you don’t have to. He died that you might not have to go.”

He said, “What do I have to do?”

I said, “Nothing. It’s just that simple.”

He said, “But if I can ever…”

95 I said, “There you go, back to that cigarette again. Quit thinking about that cigarette. Just remember, think about Him, what He did, what He is; not what you are. You’re no good; and you never was, and never will be. But, what He is, He’s the One!” And I said, “Now, the only one thing you have to do; if He took your place down there, you just willingly accept what He did. Only thing you have to do is just accept it.”

“Why,” he said, “that’s simple. I’ll do that.”

96 I said, “Here is the creek.” See? I brought him up here and baptized him in the Name of Jesus Christ.

Love, just that good, Christian, godly Love

Share

17 Try to do something good and just keep being good; hold no malice, no grudges, don’t let any bitterness. No matter how bad the person is and how bad they talk about you, don’t you never think evil in your heart against them; ’cause right there the devil will set right in, work up something right there. Just keep it all covered up with godly love, confession, and making right, and do good to those who do evil to you. “If you only do good to those who do good to you, why,” Jesus said, “don’t the publicans the same?” See? The sinners, anybody can be good to those that’s good to them. But be good to those who are not good to you, do something for those that would not do nothing for you. Speak a good word for the man that would speak evil against you, and that way you keep all the bitterness out of your heart; and you’re always in love with everybody then, as long as you stay in love.

18 Now you say, “Well, they did…” We’re not the judge, God is the Judge. And you won’t want that poor fellow to be cast away, would you? Certainly not, no matter who they are. You wouldn’t want that, so try to be kind to them. “And love hides a multitude of sin.” Uh-huh. Yes, sir. Love, just that good, Christian, godly Love.

Cause you've got to have love one for another

Share

Now, everybody wants to be loved. I tell you the truth. I do. I want God to love me, and I want the people to love me. That’s exactly the truth. And if God loves me, then the people will love me. And if I love His people, then He will love me for doing it. God would rather I’d love you, than love Him. Did you know that? I’d rather you love my boy back there, no matter what you say about me. I want you to love my children. And any father would think that. So Father God thinks the same thing for He said, “Insomuch as you have done unto the least of these, My little ones, you have did it unto Me.” So if you want to love God, just start loving all of His children. And God will reward you. If you’ll just love His children that shows the love of God is in you.

12 Jesus said, “This is the way that all the people to know that you’re—you’re children of God and passed from death unto Life, when you have love one for another.” Then you’ll know it. Not because you can have a big church, that’s all right. Not because that you have a lot of fine ministers come by, that—that’s good, too. But it’s because that you have love one for another.

Now, when this revival’s over and you all go to your respective churches…We’re not here to proselyte, and tell you, “All leave one church and go to another.” You keep your church. Try to bring some sinners into that church.

Then when you go back to your respective church, go back with such a heart full of love. And that—that woman that you just couldn’t stand or that man, love him or her anyhow. They’ll know you got something out of the meeting then. That’s right. If you don’t do that, then you—you—you haven’t gained anything yet. ’Cause you’ve got to have love one for another. Then the people…The—the outside world will know that you’ve passed from death unto Life when you have love one for another.

That's the way to make the world salty

Share

Jesus said, “You’re the salt of the earth. But if the salt’s lost it’s savour (That’s its strength.), it is henceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out and trod under the foot of man.” About here last year, I was holding your convention for the Foursquare people in California, and I passed the Salt Lake Deserts and that’s what I seen then, the salt left its savour, nothing but just to make walks out of.

13 But salt is a savour if it contacts. You—you have a piece of meat here, and a barrel of salt here, you’ve got to get them together to, the salt to the meat or the meat to the salt, to preserve the meat. And that’s the way it is. We’ve got to get the believer with the unbeliever. That’s right. You’ve got to get them into the Church, into the salty bunch of people. And you know, salt—salt also makes a thirst, doesn’t it? And if you eat salt, you get thirsty. And God wants His Church so salty, till the whole world will thirst to be like them (That’s right. See?), just thirsty, just thirsty. Just think, say, “Oh, if I could only live the way that woman lived. If she ain’t the most sweetest, peaceful person, never out of humor, never is fussy. She’s always kind, trying to do something to help somebody else. Why, she’s a credit to any man’s church.”

Yes, sir, that man used…He’s a neighbor; he’s a gentleman; he’s just so full of the love of God. You can see him at all hours of night on his knees somewhere praying. He’s always ready to go do something; he’s always talking about the Lord Jesus and His mercy. That’s the way to make the world salty. Act like that.

Come up here where I am

Share

I believe I’ve told the little story here, about the man setting a hen and had an eagle egg under it. And when that eagle hatched out, he was the funniest-looking bird that them chickens ever seen. But, he walked around. He was the—he was the ugly one among them, because he just couldn’t understand how that hen will cluck and scratch on that manure pile and eat. He couldn’t get the idea. She would say, “Come on over and feast, honey!” But he—he was a eagle; he just didn’t eat like that. It wasn’t his food.

82 So she would catch grasshoppers and what-more, you know, and call the little chickens. And all them little chickens would go along, cluck along, and eat. But the little eagle just couldn’t do it. It didn’t—didn’t look right to him.

So one day his mammy come hunting him.

83 And he would hear that hen cluck. He would try his best to cluck, but he couldn’t do it. He tried to cheep like a chicken, but he couldn’t do it. See, he was a eagle. He, to start with, he was a eagle. He was just hatched under a hen.

That’s like some church members. Every…That’s about the way it is; about one out of a setting, is right.

84 But one day his mammy flew over, and she screamed. He recognized it. That sounded right. Why? He was a eagle, to begin with.

That’s the way it is with the Gospel, or the Word, or the Power of Jesus Christ. When a man has been predestinated to Eternal Life, he hears that true ring, scream of God, nothing can keep him from It.

The church might say, “Days of miracles is past,” cluck, cluck, cluck. “Stand here and eat this, and stand here and eat that.”

85 That barnyard stuff won’t do for him, anymore. He is gone! “All things are possible!” He gets off the ground.

That’s why, the matter with so many Christians today, they can’t get their feet off the ground.

The old mammy said, “Son, jump! You’re an eagle. Come up here where I am.”

He said, “Mom, I never jumped, in my life.”

86 She said, “Well, you jump! You’re a eagle, to begin with. You’re not a chicken.” So he made his first jump and flopped his wings; didn’t do too good, but he got off the ground.

That’s the way we do. We accept God by faith, by the written Word. There is something in there; it’s that Eternal Life. You were predestinated to it.

87 His grandpa and grandma were eagles. He was a eagle, all the way back. Eagle don’t mix with other things. He is not a hybrid at all, he is a eagle.

88 Then, after you recognized the very Word of God was Eagle Food, then you left the other thing. You have then been formed into the living image of the living God. You heard from your theophany. “If this earthly body be dissolved, we have one waiting.”

So whatever you do, you lay aside everything else

104 THUS SAITH THE LORD, it’ll take perfect love to put you in that place, for that’s all there was there. No matter what money, how much religious demonstrations, how many good deeds you done or whatever you done, that won’t count nothing on that day. It’ll take perfect love. So whatever you do, you lay aside everything else until you are just so filled with the love of God till you can love those who hate you.

105 I’m just, as I said this morning, I was made, my whole make-up is grace. A lot of people say, “Now, you scratch my back and I’ll scratch yours. Yeah, you do something for me and I’ll do something for you.” That’s not grace. Grace is, if your back is itching, I’ll scratch it anyhow, whether you scratch mine or not; you can slap me on the face, and say “my back needs itchi-…, or, needs scratching,” I’ll scratch it. See? That’s it, do something. I don’t believe in works. I believe that works is love. Works is—works is the manifestation that grace has taken place. I don’t live true to my wife because I believe she’d divorce me if I didn’t, I live true to her because I love her.

106 I don’t preach the Gospel because I think I’d go to hell if I didn’t, I preach the Gospel because I love Him. Certainly.

You don’t live for yourself. You live for others, that you might redeem that man. You become sons. And the trouble of it is, the church has forgot they were sons. You’re a son. You’re taking Christ’s place. You’re a son, so don’t live for yourself. Live for others.
87 “Well, Brother Branham, I can live for this brother, because he sure is a nice man.” That’s not it.
88 Live for that man who hates you. Live for that person who would kill you if they could. That’s what they done to Him. They killed Him, and He died, that He might save them. That’s Eternal Life. When, you, that’s in your bosom, you’re facing Heaven then. But you sacrifice your own things, give them up, like the sheep gives its wool. You look on, towards Calvary.
89 I hope this helps you to get in a place. That’s what the tabernacle, that’s what all people, has got to do, is find out what you are, and what’s the purpose.

361 It’s crying out, you see. The Blood of Jesus Christ cries out, but there is forgiveness in It if you’ll just accept It. Wish we could stay a little while on that, see, “Blood speaketh better thing.” 362 Believe, for safety. Then apply, see. Believe for…Here is what you want to believe for. See, you want your own safety. You believe for your safety, and then apply the Token for the whole family. See? You say, “How can I do that?” Claim It! If It worked on you, then you and the Word becomes one. Amen! Amen! See? See, It works for both of you. You and the Word are one, then apply It to your children, apply It to your loved ones. 363 Like Rahab did, she applied the token to her father, she applied it to her mother, she applied it to her brothers and sisters, and got them all in. 364 You apply It, say, “Lord, I’m going after my son. I’m going after my daughter. I claim her!” “Satan, you turn her loose! I’m coming after her. I apply my Token, the Holy Spirit.” “O Holy Spirit, that lives within me, catch my daughter there. I’m going to her now, with Your anointing upon me.” He’ll do it. Amen. 365 That’s what they did in Egypt. That’s what they did in Jericho. 366 You want to read another one, Acts 16:31. Paul told the centurion, “Believe on the Message of the hour. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, thou and thy house shall be saved.” That right? Believe for your house, bring them all under. “Now you’ve seen the God of Heaven perform a miracle. It’s before judgment. Do you believe it?” “Yes! What can I do?” 367 He said, “Rise and be baptized.” Paul took him out and baptized him, said, “Now believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou and thy house shall be saved.” 368 Believe what? Believe the Lord Jesus Christ, for your house, apply the Token to your house. 369 Then what do you do when you apply It to your house? Move all the trash out. Get all the short skirts, and the shorts, and the cards, and the cigarettes, and televisions, and whatever more, and kick them out the door, when you go apply the Token; won’t stand still for it. Yes, sir. Take it all out. All the dances, and parties, and rock-and-roll, and old vulgar newspapers, and the stuff that’s of the world, kick it out the door, say, “We’re cleaning out this place around here.” 370 Like Jacob did, he said, told his wife and all of them, said, “Wash your clothes and everything. Put away them gods.” Amen. Jo-… 371 You know what Joshua said before crossing over? He said, “Wash your clothes; come not at your wives, and so forth, and get ready, for within three days we’ll cross Jordan.” Amen. He was getting ready, was applying the token. Amen. That’s it. 372 Get ready. Apply It. Believe It. Clean up. Let your children, let your family, let your loved ones, see It in you. That’s right. It’ll take effect. Yes, sir!

128 “A little while, and the world won’t see Me no more, yet you’ll see Me. I’ll be with you, even in you, to the end of the world. I will not leave you comfortless. I’ll pray the Father; He’ll send you another Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the world cannot receive; yet, you can receive Him.” 129 Now notice. The “greater” works, was to have the Power in the Church, not only to heal the sick by prayer, cast out devils by prayer, but to impart Eternal Life to believers. The Holy Ghost was coming, and given into the hands of the Church, to impart Life. Oh! That’s what Calvary meant. It took stooped, degraded men and women, and lifted them into a place, to be sons and daughters of God, to heal the sick and to impart Eternal Life; by giving the Holy Ghost to obedient believers, men who were once unbelievers, be made believers, and impart spiritual, Eternal Life. 130 How much greater is it: To say, “This sick woman laying here, I can pray a prayer of faith and she’ll be healed,” that’s a great thing, that’s what He was doing then; “but,” said, “greater than this shall you do; I’m going to give you Power, not only to raise him up for a while, but to give him Eternal Life, which will be Eternal, forever.” 131 Poor, blind, wretched people, how do you miss that? Don’t you see what the “greater” thing is? That’s the greatest thing could ever happen, was to impart Eternal Life to people. What is Eternal Life? The Life that He lived, the Life that was in Him, impart That to others. Can a man do that? A son of God can.

He’s just exactly like you

Share

How that the Holy Spirit must feel today, when It goes before God with a bowed, shamed face as it was, to have to take a report of our indifferences in the church today. How we’ve laid aside all the baptism of the Spirit, how that the churches are having a form of godliness and denying the power thereof. How He must blush to say, “Your daughters are dressing immorally.” How He must blush to say, “Your children can’t even agree with one another long enough to have a meeting.” How that they’re making fun of your people that’s been called out and filled with the Spirit. How the Holy Ghost must feel to go before God with such messages as that. Coming back, saying they’re having a form of godliness…They don’t believe in the supernatural no more. They won’t even go to church on Wednesday night; they stay to watch some favorite television program. How it must be…

28 “And Your gifts that You send down to Your church to confirm Your Word that You promised, people walk away and call it the works of the devil.” Now remember, the Holy Spirit’s got to bring to God everything that every professing Christian says about it. Because He sent…

Well, may the Father say, “Did You try? Did You knock at the heart’s door?”

“I knocked night after night, and they won’t listen.” How He must feel. How can…He trusted us. Like He did Adam and Eve, put them in the garden of Eden and trusted them to be right, to obey His Word. They fell; and as soon as man gets things in his hand, he will fall every time. He cannot hold it himself. It takes God to hold us.

29 Then we notice again, that when…What if that boy was a good boy? Oh, how the teacher would shove out his chest, walk up to the father, and say, “I am so glad, sir, to bring you the message of the—how your son is progressing. He’s just as smart as he can be. He’s just—just like you. He’s a…as we would call it a chip off of the block. He’s just exactly like you; he loves the same thing you love. He does the work just exactly like you done it when you was out there.”

That’s the kind of a church that the Holy Ghost likes to witness for before God. “The kind of works,” Jesus said, “that I do, shall you also.” That’s the kind of a church that the Holy Spirit likes to witness before God.

30 And then if that child (that son) did not obey and was not obedient child, it never was no more than a son; it remained a son, but yet it had no inheritance.

Now, we don’t want to stay in that place. The church ought to be a thousand miles up the road farther than it is tonight. The Pentecostal blessings has been falling on the people here in America for fifty years; and if anything, we’re dwindling instead of going on. “What are you preaching such as this for, Brother Branham?” I want to see the church of God in deep sincerity; I want to see the old fashioned prayer meetings. I want to see them times when they can’t leave church; they just stay all night, and pray, and fast, and call out till God answers. Instead of that, it seem like love has dwindled away from us. The love of God…just love…

Why, a real Christian can hardly wait: when the bell rings, he’s got the front seat, and there ready with the song book in his hand. But now, we say, “Oh, my, I don’t know.”

Oh, blest be the tie that binds Our hearts in Christian love; The fellowship of kindred minds Is like to that above. When we asunder part, It gives us inward pain; But we shall still be joined in heart, And hope to meet again.

That’s the way real Christianity is a living experience. Pentecost is not a denomination; Pentecost is an experience that anybody can have if they’ll wish to have it. It’s something that you experience, the Holy Spirit.

Love those that love you, then does not the sinner the same thing? But love those who doesn’t love you, that’s what shows the Spirit of God is in you, ’cause He loved you when you were His enemy, and He loved you. And if that Spirit’s in you, It’ll make you love your enemy, as you do your friend.

When God raised Jesus from the dead, He raised up you, also. And also quickened to Life, with Him, you are now quickened to Life, although then you were but an attribute in His thoughts, but God had saw all in Him, at the finish, see. When God looked down upon the body… 241 The Spirit left Him, in the Garden of Gethsemane. He had to die, a man. Remember, friends, He didn’t have to do that. That was God. God anointed that flesh, which was human flesh. And He didn’t…If He’d a went up there, as God, He’d have never died that kind of death; can’t kill God. But He didn’t have to do it. 242 But, remember, He went there with you in Him. See, God had never separated the Bride from the Groom, yet. So when God looked down upon the body of Christ, He saw both male and female. It was all redeemed in that one body. See? They are one, same, same Word. The same Word, spoke of the Groom, speaks of the Bride. 243 Well, how can the Bride come, and fail to manifest everything was promised of Him; and the Groom come, and He wouldn’t be the Bride? But when He did everything, even to proving it by raising Himself up from the dead, afterwards, then don’t the—the Bride have to do the same thing, have to be exactly what the Word said She would be in these last days? Don’t She have to return through Malachi 4? Don’t She have to be manifested like it was in the days of Sodom? Don’t the world have to be just exactly like it is? Isn’t these things a perfect identification of the Word of God made known to us?

It's up to you

129 It’s up to you, you remember. You are the one. Are you a sinner? Are you a backslider? Are you cold and away from Christ? Do you want to be raised anew with Him now, start life anew? How about you, husband and wife that’s been at—been at outs for a long time, fussing in your home? Won’t you come and straighten that thing up with God and each other now? Make Easter really an Easter for you, start a new home.

130 What about you that’s never been, has never had prayer in your home, you just go home from church and try to live the best you can, never bring the family together and pray? That’s why we got juvenile delinquency and the things we got. That’s why the American homes are broke up. Won’t you come, start anew tonight? Will you do it? You’re invited. Remember, I’m your minister now; I’ll be a witness on that day.

While we have our heads bowed, then, now for prayer.

131 Our Blessed Heavenly Father, tonight we bring to Thee this audience, in the most solemn sacred solemnity that we know how. We humbly approach Thy Throne. And after the Message tonight, that, that great entombment, He never layed silent, His soul went right on into the regions and finished the work of God, that He was ordained to do. And tomorrow morning, we find where He went through the realms above, conquering everything, in His resurrection. But He come out on Easter morning for our justification. And we find that He sent the Holy Spirit back, to convict men of sin.

132 And we pray tonight, Lord, that those who raised their hands may be remembered before Thee. May their decision be from their heart tonight, that they have received You, and believe You, and may they be sealed away by the Seal of promise tonight, the Holy Spirit. Grant it, Father. For, we commit them unto Thee, with this Message tonight. May It bless those who heard It, those, Lord, who will take It with them to their home, and sink It deep in their hearts. May they live on the Word of God. Grant it, Father, for we ask it in Christ’s Name. Amen.
