<TITLE>24. Par 84-87</TITLE>L-84 Now, the Holy Spirit will bare record of the Word. If it don't bare record of the Word, then it's not the Holy Spirit you're speaking to, 'cause the Holy Spirit feeds on the Word of God. "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God."
Now, then here's a woman, heartbroken, all disturbed, but yet in her soul she was quiet. She got right where she knowed that she could get some results. She said, "If Thou would've been here, my brother would not died. But even now, whatever You ask God, God will give it to Thee."
He said, "Thy brother shall rise again."
She said, "Yes, Lord, I know. He was a good boy. He will raise in the general resurrection in the last days. I know he will--he will raise. He was a good boy." The Jews believed in the general resurrection. Said, "He will raise in the last days."
Now, look at Jesus, pulled His little frame together. He said, "I am the Resurrection and Life. He that believeth in Me, though he were dead yet shall he live. And whosoever liveth and believeth in Me shall never die." Said, "Believest thou this?" Oh, my.

L-85 There's the question; here's the woman, right place. The cogs are coming right together. She's standing by God's Representative. She's got a desire in her heart, and she's got the right Man, the right place, the right attitude, and she's confessing, "You are just exactly what You said You was. You're the Son of God that was to come into the world. And I believe that whatever You ask God, God will give it to You, because You are His Representative." Brother, something's got to take place. Something has to take place.
Said, "I believe just exactly what You confess to be. I believe that's just what You are. I believe that You are just exactly what You said You was."
He said, "Thy brother shall rise again." And she questioned said to the resurrection. He said, "I am the Resurrection and Life. He that believeth in Me, though he were dead yet shall he live. And whosoever liveth and believeth in Me shall never die." And--and He said, "Whereas..." or, "Believeth thou this?"
She said, "Yes, Lord, I believe that with all my heart. I believe that You are the Son of God that was to come into the world."
Said, "Where you buried him?"
Said, "Come, see."
The Bible said, "Jesus wept."

L-86 I'm not trying to scold you, but here sometime ago a Christian science woman said to me, said, "Reverend Branham," said, "your messages is all right, but," said, "you put too much emphasis on Jesus Christ. You brag too much about Him."
I said, "How could I?" I want to know how could I brag too much on Him.
She said, "Well, now, look." Said, "You try to make Him so Divine, and everything like that, when He was a good man, He was a teacher."
I said, "He was God."
She said, "He couldn't be God."
I said, "If He wasn't God He was the biggest deceiver the world's ever had." That's right. I said, "He was either God, or He was nothing."

L-87 She said, "Well, He wasn't Divine."
I said, "He was Divine."
She said, "If I prove it to you by the Bible, will you accept it?"
I said, "If it was the Bible said He wasn't Divine, then I'll believe it."
She said, "I can prove it."
I said, "All right." She referred to this Scripture.
She said, "When Jesus went down to the grave of Lazarus, the Bible said 'He wept.'"
And I said, "You mean to tell me that--that you think that's the reason He wasn't Divine?"
Said, "Why, sure He wept. He was a man."
I said, "He was a man, yes. But He was God also. He was a God-man."
