<TITLE>10. Par 31-32</TITLE>L-31 And it is written, "The things that I do shall you also. Greater than this..." Or really the word--right word there is, "More than this (would be more of it) shall you do..."
I heard some fellow here not long ago, said, "Yes, the greater things, Brother Branham. He said, 'Greater than this. That's what He said. That's the King James translation of it."
I said, "All right. Greater." I said, "What is the greater? He stopped nature. He raised the dead. He healed the sick. He opened the eyes of the blind, as the Father showed Him to do. He didn't do nothing until the Father showed Him to do." Is that right?
That's what He said. "I can do nothing expect the Father shows Me first. Then I go do that."
They said, "Why don't He do this, why don't He do that? Why wouldn't He come down the cross. He's blindfolded. We smacked him on the head. Why don't you tell us who you, and we'll believe you're a prophet?"
He didn't clown for people. He said, "I do what the Father tells Me to do, and shows Me to do," other wise. Saint John 5:19 says, "Verily, verily, I say unto you, the Son can do nothing in Himself, but what He sees the Father doing first. And what sort of things the Father doeth, He showeth the Son, and this doeth the Son likewise; for the Father loveth the Son, and showing Him what He does." See?

L-32 Now, that's right. That's the reason He couldn't heal all that day there at Bethesda, all the crippled--and crippled and withered, and so forth. The Father showed Him one man that had been sick for thirty-eight years with diabetes, or something. He said, "Take up your bed and go on home." And he did it.
Why didn't He healed the rest of them? He said, "I can't till the Father shows Me to do it."
Now, if He's the same yesterday, today He can do the same thing.
This fellow said, "Well now, looky here." He said, "The greater things... Jesus couldn't preach the Gospel all the way around the world." And said, "We've done the greater things by preaching the Gospel around the world."
I said, "What is the Gospel?"
He said, "Oh, the ah--the ah--the Word."
I said, "Not altogether, my brother." I said, "That's not Scripture."
"Oh," he says, "Well, Reverend Branham..."
I said, "Oh, no."
Paul said, "The Gospel come to us not in Word only, but through power and demonstration of the Holy Ghost." Yes, sir.
When He said, "Go into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature," He also said, "Demonstrate the power of the Holy Ghost in all the world." Yes, sir.
It never come to us through Word only. The Word's got to be quickened and made alive in the demonstration of the power of the Holy Ghost. I said, "Then if you call that the greater things, surely you can do the lesser things then. Go heal the sick. Pray for the sick. Cast out devils. Do those kinds of work."
Jesus said, "The things that I do, shall you also."
And if you'll do them, He will do them. "The things that I do, shall you do, and greater then this; for I go to My Father." To be greater would be more of you... more of it. Oh, my. Isn't He wonderful? Now, believe Him tonight while we pray.
