<TITLE>23. Par 68-69</TITLE>L-68 We don't have very much room here to stand many at a time. Now, how many's here for your first time, let's see your hands, first time? Where's everybody was here last night? Every night it's practically a brand new audience. You can just repeat the same thing over each time, it would do.
All right, friends, I'm not a healer. I'm your brother. Please understand, I never come here to heal people, I come here to point them to One Who's already healed them, Jesus Christ. By Divine... but if He was here Hisself, He could not heal you, could He? He can't do what He's already done. If I put my hand on that Bible, you say, "Put your left hand on the Bible, Brother Branham." Th... I can't do it, I've already got it on there. If the requirements me to put my hand on the Bible, why, my hand's on the Bible.
You say, "Why, you put your hand on the Bible." I've already done it, see.
Well, that's what Jesus... He healed the people, and He saved the people. When you get saved, Jesus doesn't come down and save you then. You've been saved ever since Jesus died, but you just accepted your salvation. It'll never do you any good unless you accept it, that's right. But when He died, He took away every sin of the world. And as far as God is concerned, He can't see sin, because the Blood of Christ got it covered. But when you die, and you go beyond that Blood, then you're already judged. Cause, God's done said the day you eat thereof that day you die; so if you're... you didn't accept the Blood of Christ, you didn't accept your salvation from Christ, then you're just gone, that's all. If you did, then you're saved, and that--that settles it.

L-69 And now, the same Blood, and mingled in there through His stripes, you were healed. If you believe it, accept it, no matter how you feeled. It isn't by feeling, never think... Jesus never did one time say, "Did you feeled it?" Said, "Did you believe it?" That... No matter how you feel you just believe it. You're not saved because you feel like you're saved, are you? I'm not saved because I feel like I'm saved. The Devil can beat you around the bush on your feelings. Brother, I'm saved because I met God's requirement. That's why I'm saved. Let me see him beat me around that. That's what God said. My feelings, that has nothing to do with it. But the Bible said I'm saved, and I met that requirement, and that's the reason I know I'm saved. Course there is a feeling that goes with it, but not the feeling alone; it's the Bible said so. That's the reason...
Jesus said when He... how many believe He was God in flesh, let's see your hands? We all believe that, sure we do. He was--and when He was here on earth, He had all the powers of God, was in Him, do you believe that? He was the Godhead bodily, the Fullness of the Godhead bodily. The Bible said, "God was in Christ, reconciling the world to Himself." Is that right? Jesus said, "It's not Me that doeth the works, it's My Father dwelleth in Me, He doeth the works."
And when He met the Devil, He had every power that God's got, was right in Him. But He never used a one of them. He said... Satan said, "If?" (That question mark.) "the Word of God's right. If, if Thou be the Son of God, do a miracle and let me see You do a miracle." Hmm? He still says the same thing. "If Thou be the Son of God, command these stones to be turned to bread and eat, 'cause you're hungry. You have need of it." See?
