<TITLE>07. Par 61-68</TITLE>L-61 So then, and then what am I going to do then? What are you going to do then? See? You're responsible, just as I am responsible. We're all responsible. We're responsible for the death of Jesus Christ, every one of us, until we've accepted Him as personal Saviour, then work for Him with all of our heart. If God has given us something to do, we fail to do it, then God will require it at the end of the day.
Oh, so God, give me faith, give me--give me courage. Encourage me.
I get so easy to become discouraged (You see?), because I see things and it's wrong, and I--I can't straighten it. There's no need of me trying to do it. There's just no need. Just like arguing with that brother about his book. You never get nothing by arguing.

L-64 Here not long ago, A. B. Neums... You know him; the man that died last week. He was going over me, just raking me over the coals and things about Divine healing. Brother Neums was a good man, I trust in glory today with the other saints of God, shouting the victory.
Now, what attitude he taken towards Divine healing, I don't care if every preacher, pope, and everything else would raise up and condemn Divine healing, tomorrow I'll be preaching Divine healing. That's right. See? Because why? It's in the Word. It's God's Word. It's what God said. It ain't... I'm responsible for what God said. I'm responsible as a minister to preach what God said and call it the truth.

L-66 I was going over to get Brother Boze. I turned on the radio. I like to hear Brother Neums; he's a good preacher. And I went over to hear him. And on the road over, oh, my, he was raking Divine healing as fanaticism, and devils, and everything else. And he said, "For instance, the Bosworth brothers..." He said, "When I was... they... I was with them when they was in their best, when they were young men, just both kids." And said, "They both died, nothing but boys." Said, "If there'd be anything of Divine healing, what about that?"
I thought, "Oh, Brother Neums, my..."
He said, "Aimee McPherson died, nothing but a girl (See?), just a young kid." And Aimee was an old woman when she died.

L-68 So I thought, "Oh, my." Well, I went on out, and I thought, "I know that he's made such a error." So I went out to--to the--to the airplane place over there, and I--I went in. I called him up. I said, "Brother Neums?"
He said, "Yes."
I said, "This is Brother Branham."
He said, "What do you want?"
And I said, "Brother Neums, you made a little mistake this morning that'll hurt you, if you don't watch, brother. I believe you'd do the same thing for me. But you spoke and said, 'The Bosworth brothers died when they were both young kids."'
He said, "They did."
I said, "Brother Neums, B. B. is in Detroit now, holding a--a meeting. And F. F., Fred Bosworth is my manager." And I said, "He's nearly eighty years old. He's in Miami at the time." And I said, "Brother Neums, two years ago, we held a revival right here in Louisville together, where thousands of people come and listened to Brother Bosworth." And I said, "His picture goes out through thousands of people around over the land here and everything, his articles and things." I said, "He's living today and in the very best of health." And I said, "A strong man here at nearly eighty years old, still preaching the Gospel, just returned from Africa with me." I said, "That's the truth."
I said, "Brother Neums," I said, "I believe you'd do the same thing for me." I said, "Why, you--you've got a great revival message here on the radio and so forth. You got... You--you got all the... and lots of people listening at you. And Brother Neums, if they find out... And they know that, thousands of people's listening at you, knows Bosworth right now." I said, "You make such a statement as that, it'll hurt your ministry, and we're brothers. You shouldn't do that."
Said, "I'll straighten it up."
