<TITLE>04. Par 12-15</TITLE>L-12 Have to take, maybe it'd be fifteen or twenty interpreters. Like you'd say, "Jesus Christ, the Son of God." And the interpreter standing next to you, he'd maybe... he would go, "Cluck, cluck, cluck, cluck." That means "Jesus Christ, the Son of God."
When I used to hear people, the Pentecostal people, speaking with tongues, I used to say, "I--I don't know about that. They don't make noise that sounds right somehow." That's 'fore I knew anything about it.
But I know this one thing now: You can't make a noise 'less it's got some kind of a meaning to it. That's... It's just some kind of a language somewhere. You ever get into those tribes and things, you'll see that it's got a meaning of some sort. No matter what kind of sound, grunt, groans, and everything else is got a meaning to them, by somebody.

L-13 And maybe, you'd speak, this one, then that one, and that one, and that one. And maybe you'd go get a drink of water and come back and set down before you ever get through. You'd say, "Jesus Christ, the Son of God." before it ever got through all the interpreters... And now, you have to wait on them.
But as soon as you get your message out, shortly, just a very few words to say, and then just make them the challenge of this, and say, "Now, if Jesus Christ that I speak of, has raised from the dead, and He promised (Now, we just base it on His Word.) that the things that I do shall you also. And I'm with you always to the end of the world. Now, if He has risen from the dead and living among the people, He will produce the same thing that He did when He was here on earth."
You ask them to believe that, every one of them will say if they can see that, they'll believe it. Then get one native, anywhere you want to, walk up, I can't speak his language, knows nothing about what I just talked about, I never seen him, heard of him, and the Holy Spirit will stand there and reveal that man's life, right to him. Every one of them will accept it. Every one of them believes it right then. You just see them... And one prayer.

L-14 Brother Bosworth, which I believe is a very fine man. All of you know him, for near... Fred Bosworth. How many knows Brother Bosworth? Sure, nearly everyone around full gospel ranks knows Brother Fred Bosworth. He said, "Brother Branham, without one shadow of doubt, there's at least twenty-five thousand healings, that one afternoon, with one prayer."
Just went to the microphone after something had taken place at the platform, and I offered prayer. And he said, "I stood there and I cried, Brother Branham." Said, "I--I just wept my heart out, just to see them, just--just moving up and packing their old sticks and everything, until they get piles and piles and everything. Going away like that just of--of healed... Said, "At least twenty-five thousand people."

L-15 Now, that's the way my ministry should be worked in America. But remember, I'm an American. And I love my country. It's the greatest country in the world. Now, I don't say it because I'm standing here. No, sir. I say it because I mean it.
When I was in France and around there, I probably crossed over the grave of a many dead Branham, that's died for this nation. And if it come my time to do it, I'd do it just as free as they did. But, brother, we need a lot of straightening up around this country. And I say this with a love in my heart: if there's any nation that I've ever visit (I practically been around the world), if there's any nation that I know of that needs a missionary, it's the U.S.A. Exactly right.
It's a lot harder to deal with an educated heathen, than it is one that isn't educated. That's... He knows too much about it. They'll set back. The uneducated will see the working of the Holy Spirit; they'll accept it. They uneducated say, "That's mental telepathy." "That guy's a witch." "There's nothing to that. The days of miracles is past. Dr. Jones said so." Or somebody else said so or something.
