<TITLE>14. Par 129-136</TITLE>L-129 Heavenly Father, we thank Thee this morning for the time of talking of missions, and how that You have blessed us and helped us. And how many times have I thought, when the waves was rolling high, and the great trials was on, would I ever be back home again. But here, here I am again. Lord, You always bring me back. I thank You for this church, for its pastor, for its peoples. Bless us.
And now, Father, this morning, I... My heart looks across there to India, and thinking, laying out there on that street, this morning, all down along by the side of that shore, down in those little old haunts, down there, those poor, hungry, starving, uneducated people, not knowing the Lord Jesus, worshipping some kind of a superstition or an idol. Then, Father, how thankful I am to know that You've let me know You: to know is Life.

L-131 Now, I pray that You'll help me. Take the critical spirit from Thy servant, Lord. God, I don't want to... If the men are wrong, You be the Judge, Lord. Let me just love anyhow, will You, Father? If the women misdress, and misuse themselves, and become prostitutes, and our nation sinks, how can I change history when You've spoke it, Lord? But I pray that You'll just help me, and let me be loving and kind, that I can be Your servant and do Your will. These things I ask, Father, for Your glory.
Now bless us. And as I've been asked to teach the Word, a little. Father, just give us a little short message now, that the Word may go forth, that it'll be a great day for us. We ask it in Jesus' Name. Amen.

L-133 All right. Now, I got a quarter to eleven. Is that right? Well, can we have about thirty-five minutes? Will that be all right, and then get out about eleven-thirty? Now, where we going?
I was setting here thinking about teaching out of the Old Testament. But, you, usually I just... You get in the Old Testament all the time. So somebody said, "Brother Branham, don't you know nothing but the Old Testament?" Well, it's good. When I learn that, then I will learn the New one. But when you learn one, you learn them both. See, they're both together.
But let's turn over in the New Testament somewhere. I don't know where you all been studying or nothing. Let's... I tell you, let's get Saint John. Let's go back to the 1st of Saint John, and begin to read Saint John. Now, that's just... I'm just turning over to it. I don't know. So we'll just start to study in Saint John. Is that all right with everybody? [Congregation, "Amen."--Ed.] It is? All right, Saint John, the 1st chapter.

L-136 And now, maybe, this coming Wednesday night, I heard... I want to be with you tonight. I want to come down and--and be with you tonight, and then Wednesday night also. I think that we won't leave before Wednesday, so I will be here Wednesday night. I'm pretty sure it'll be next Thursday or Friday, one, before we get away. So then I will be here Wednesday night, if the Lord willing, for service. And now we want to--to teach some, maybe, Wednesday night, the Lord's willing.
Say, Brother Fleeman, that's just a good idea, just take off your coat now and feel at home.
