<TITLE>11. Par 35-37</TITLE>L-35 So I went out to Mr. Wright's, a dear old friend of mine, seventy some years old. And my wife, being with me in the meeting, we didn't know that this condition existed. And so, when I went down there, I found him with a blood clot in the back of both of his legs. And a specialist had been out there, way out in the country where he lives, and said he only had about three or four days to live, that the blood clot was a hardening of the arteries. As soon as... The blood clot was in his joints of his knees, and as soon as the blood moves, it would go to his heart; it would kill him instantly. If it went to his brain, it would paralyze him: "No hope at all," specialist.
Well, I happened to find that news when I went in, and he was laying on the bed with his hands up, crying. And I... Said, "Oh, Brother Branham, we tried to get... Chicago, we sent telegrams..." But I never did get them. So they...
I went in, fell across the old man, praying, asking God to let him live. And I stayed there that day about--about two or three days, praying for the man, every day. And I was trying to relax of a morning. I'd get up, go out, get my old shotgun, go up on the hill and see if I could scare a rabbit. I come back, set down, pray for him, go back out. Finally, people begin to find out I was over there. [Brother Branham coughs--Ed.] Pardon me. So I went back the next day and there's about eight or ten carloads setting our there. So I couldn't go up the house right at the time.

L-36 So then the next... My wife called and said, "Honey, I hate to call you," but said, "you just going have to come home, because a missionary to the Jews, a very fine Christian woman, she lives in Louisville, going to be in Palestine the same time that I'm over there. And she's a very noted woman, a graduate of Moody Bible in Chicago, and a fine woman, a strict believer in Divine healing. God has healed her and done many things in her family. And she... Her daughter was in the hospital, and the doctors had give her up with some kind of a poisoning from childbirth. and she was laying, dying.
The...?... Baptist Hospital back in Louisville, Kentucky, which is a great hospital. I forget how many hundreds of rooms it's got in it. One of the best medical staffs there is in the nation, I suppose, at this big hospital...
Many of you in here from Louisville know where it's at, at the end of Broadway up there. And so, then, she was laying there... And James C. Robertson, a great Christian attorney, internationally known, very close friend of Timothy...?... in England, which is bringing me over to England this time, like the--like a "Reader's Digest," goes all over the world...
And he went up there. And his father's one of the presidents on the staff, and they had done everything, and got every doctor they could for this woman, 'cause she is a personal friend of Mrs. Baker also, the girl's mother.

L-37 So I went home, went over there. The Wright family begin crying, said, "Brother Branham..." Brother Shelby went out with me, his son, about forty years old, he said, "Brother Branham, what do you think about dad? You think he's going to die?"
I said, "Yes, Shelby. I believe your daddy's going to die."
He said, "Sir, I--I hate to give dad up."
His little sister come over, said, "Brother Branham, what do you think of daddy?"
I said, "I believe he's going to die." And I said, "I believe he's going home to meet the Lord."
'Course we know Christians don't die; there's no such a Scripture in the Bible. See? Christians don't die; they just go to be with the Lord.
