<TITLE>02. Par 6-9</TITLE>L-6 Now, then God, upon Christ, put my sins and your sins, and He bore them to Calvary. He put my sickness upon Him. He put my iniquity upon Him. And there He paid the supreme sacrifice for you and I, and every human in the world. Every person that ever has a ailment was healed at Calvary. Every sinner that ever was or ever will be, was forgiven at Calvary. But the thing we have to do, is accept it. See, see? By His strips we were healed: past tense. That's when He done it. Every...
A certain religious group of people at Louisville, Kentucky, teaches that if a baby dies and his parents did not have the Holy Spirit, the baby will never be no more, that it's finished forever.
And I was discussing this briefly with one of the people. I said, "Oh, that can't be. That poor little innocent baby has no control of its... Why, it had no way... How did it come here? It couldn't help being here. It couldn't help 'cause his father and mother was sinners."

L-7 I'll say this by the authority of God's Word. Every baby that's under the age of accountability, dies, goes to glory. Yes, sir. Christ died to take away the sin of the world. And when you come to the age of accountability... We were all born in sin. But when He died, He taken away the sin. And when you come to the age of accountability, then you're responsible from then on. See? It isn't... You're not responsible for something you did not do, Christ done died to save you to take away the sin that Adam caused. But when you sin, you have to confess your sins. First, you have to confess it.
But the baby's done no sin if... It's not accountable for what it does. And Christ died to free that baby. And I... If it's born of a parent, drunkard, or whatever they might be, that baby goes to heaven. I believe it. And I believe it'll come to recognition of the cross when it gets there, to know that Christ died for it. I believe that. Yes, sir.
Oh, I--I'm the greatest believer in Jesus Christ, the Son of God, I--and for what He's done, and what He is to me tonight. He's more than life to me.

L-8 I just get to talking to you, and I get passed my place. I want to take just a little time and... Many of you might be wondering why I'm not attending the service a lot. I just...?... first place, just twenty-five and thirty a night that's been on the platform, and so forth. I'm just trying to conserve myself, to hold out till next week...?... time.
This will is the--be the longest meeting that I've ever held--the longest time. And Brother Lindsay told me, said, "Brother Branham, just go up and preach a few nights, and hold yourself over." Say to me...
'Cause I just come right out of a big meeting there. And went right home and been just constantly on the run, and then right in here again. Going right out of here, right to Kansas City, and right on into California. And it's hard telling where from there. And it makes it pretty hard. You see? Well, if it was just this meeting, would be different.

L-9 But I never want to let myself get to far out again, like I did the other time--setting at the platform for eight days and nights without leaving (See?), eating at the platform, sleeping on the side of the pulpit, and the prayer line still standing there. I'd just lay down and sleep a little bit, and wake up. And I'd hear that music, just "Only Believe, Only Believe." They'd put me in a car to sleeping. I couldn't sleep then. And they'd put me car just to... Used to then, there were interviews about five minutes.
And I started to go home. I'd drive up the road. I had an old Ford. It was just about gone. And I--I would drive up the road a little piece, then stop. And I'd pulled all the hairs out of my hand (There ain't hardly any of them there now.), trying to keep awake praying for the sick people, wake myself up, like that. And I would hit the side of my knee on the old Ford till I beat the side of it out, like that, trying to keep awake, making sick calls.
