<TITLE>14. Par 196-212</TITLE>L-196 Well, the Bible said, "These signs shall follow them that believe. In My Name they shall cast out devils, speak with new tongues, take up serpents, drink deadly things; they lay hands on the sick, they shall recover." You preach that in half the churches today, they'd kick you out the door. That's right. That's right. Don't know God's provided way, but that's what He said. That's what Jesus said. Do you believe it? Yes, sir.
And then if He said so, "Amen, I believe it." I think It's the Truth, and I'm walking His way, what He said do. And He's confirming It with signs, wonders, following. That's right.
So just do the same thing, walk right in. It's for every... Whosoever will, let him come on in. Come on. God's called you, you've got to come. So come right on in. Don't wait any longer. Take it, tonight.

L-199 I see this little old fellow; he joined himself up. He loved Jesus, but yet, he was just kind in a way... He didn't want to lose his prestige, you know, the blessings. So they come out...?...
So the Lord said, "Now, look at that little old fellow down there. I predestinated him to Eternal Life, and there he is with that bunch of unbelievers. So I will fix him up." He just let his daughter get sick.
He said, "Well, I will call in Doctor Doe."
Doctor Doe looked her over. He said, "Pulse is getting low, Jairus. Tell you what we better do; we better do this, that." And he gave her all the drugs, and so forth. She went right on, dying.
Then he said, "I--I wonder if God has got a provided way?" Oh, my.

L-203 The Man that he had criticized so much about Divine healing. Or heard about Him... He said, "Yes. Yes. Uh-huh."
"Jairus, don't you think He's a hypocrite?"
"No," said the Holy Spirit, "He's not a hypocrite. You believe in Him."
"Oh, all right, yeah. Oh, I--I--I guess He is."

L-206 See, that's the way some of these borderline preachers is (That's right.), just afraid. Oh, God take the wishbone out of you and put a backbone in you.
I like what Buddy Robinson's testimony is. He said, "Lord, give me the backbone the size of a saw log. Put plenty of noise in the gable end of my soul. And let me fight the devil as long as I got one tooth left, and then gum him till I die." I like that. That's right. He said, "I had an old coon dog. She died, old. She fought coons till she didn't have one tooth left, then she just gum them coons, and squeal." I like that. Right. Hallelujah.

L-208 You say, "Brother Branham, I hardly got very much education. I'm too small. The preachers will turn me down."
Let's just go back to the story. "It ain't the size of the dog in the fight; it's the size of the fight in the dog." That's what it is today. Stand up there. Find out today though, the dog would stand there.

L-210 Like the old chief said one day, as he was getting ready to go.
Said, "How you getting along, chief?"
Said, "...?..." Said, "There's two dogs in me. One's black and one's white. The black one wants me to do wrong, and the white one wants me to do right." Said, "They're always fighting and quarreling."
I said, "Which one wins, chief?"
Said, "Depends on which one chief feeds the most."

L-212 And that's about right, too. Yes, sir. All right, brother. I'm telling you, what the world needs tonight is a good old shaking.
