<TITLE>02. Par 6-10</TITLE>L-6 That's one thing, and another thing there's something in my heart just gives so much love, that I--I--I know that this is the only time I'll ever be mortal. And I've got to do all I can do right now. And I love people, and I--and I... If I didn't love you, I couldn't love God.
So I have a boy here and a little girl in the meeting tonight, little baby girl of two years old. And really, if it come to the--the choice, if you--which you wanted to love, me or my children, you love my children if you don't love me. It'd make me think more of you if you love my children. Well, that's the same way with God. You're His children. And if I can't love you, then how can I love God. See? So I--I just trust that He will bless you.

L-7 Now, the--the thing that I was just to say, going to say, was this: So many questions has been asked and Billy was telling me and Brother Boze [Brother Branham coughs--Ed.](Pardon me.), and many of them, about the convention. I don't like to mention it, but the reason that I come to the convention, "The Voice Of Healing" convention, was I was invited to come by Brother Lindsay. He wanted me to come through the convention; I couldn't stay, do that because I was with Dr. Lee, which is, I guess, in the building tonight.
The Baptist people down in Florida in a meeting, and I had to--to cut that meeting off. I was supposed to stay there until the fifteenth. And I cut the meeting off in order to have one night at "The Voice of Healing" convention. And fine bunch of brethren in that convention. And so I wanted to meet with them all again and shake their hands.

L-8 Brother Boze, at the time when I was here last, this last summer, said, "Well, during the time of convention will you give me one night? Just after you're through with the convention then have the following Sunday at my place."
And that's just love that he has for me. And so I said, "Why, sure, Brother Boze, I'll be glad to do that."
Well then seeing the convention, my time to speak would be on the eleventh, I called him from Florida the other night, called him up and told him that I'd also be here on Saturday night. I'd have Saturday, and of course, that pleased him real well. And so he said, "Well, that's just fine, come on."

L-9 Well, I started on my road home, my boy and I. We were driving our little truck. We had a long, hard drive. But when we got home I was real tired. And that morning about three o'clock, the Angel of the Lord come to me and said, "There's something wrong in Chicago."
Well, I wondered if it was here. And then He showed me Brother Gordon Lindsay doing something. And he was putting it off on someone else to come tell me something. And He showed me a man was going to meet me and to take me from the meeting. Well, I couldn't understand; that's all He told me. And I told my wife and many of the friends around home, "There's something wrong."

L-10 And when I got up to Chicago, up here to the hotel, Belmont Hotel, where we was staying... Mr. Moore had made reservations there for me. And when I got to the hotel, well, Mr. Moore said, "Brother Branham, something is wrong." And I'm giving it to you just in detail so you'll know. He said, "There's something wrong."
I said, "I... the Holy Spirit has told me there's something wrong. What is it, Brother Moore?"
He said, "Well, "The Voice Of Healing" has decided that if you were going to have that meeting for the Philadelphian Church that they wouldn't permit you to preach tonight in their pulpit, in their convention."
And I said, "Well, what's wrong with that?"
