<TITLE>01. Par 1-4</TITLE>55-0116A, The Believer's Position In Christ, Lane Tech High School, Chicago, IL, 49 min
L-1 Be seated and thank you lots for your cooperation. These compliments that Brother Joseph, my friend and brother was just passing, he--he just loves me, the reason he says those things that...
I am sorry we're late. I said last night that we'd be here at three, but I think something happened. When I got over here, they told me they was going to be a little late.
So I heard them announce given out prayer cards at six and the other service at seven. So it's going to be a full afternoon, so I'll hurry right up with my part of the service. So many of you have to return to your homes, maybe for lunch, or something. And may some want to home, some may stay over, and so forth, but whatever the Lord leads you to do...
[Brother Joseph says, "Brother Branham, if you would prefer the meeting at two-thirty and the people like it just as well, we can have it two-thirty, I think."--Ed.] Well, that would be probably all right, in the afternoon then, in the Sunday afternoon. Yeah, next Sunday afternoon they're announcing it for two-thirty, get us a little earlier, Brother Joseph said. It makes it kind of hard when you have, you know, have to rush.

L-2 Now, I was thinking when I come over here... You know how preacher do, when you get somewhere, and you'll say, "Well, now..." when you're going to speak, "Well, I'm going to speak on a certain subject." And when you get there the Lord said, "That won't work." So you start all over again.
I was setting back there, and I was going speak on "The Unfailing Promises of God." And I was setting back there, and I kept thinking, "Well, that'd take me an hour and a half." And I said... Lord told me I better not do that.
So I'm just going to turn over here in the Scripture a little bit, teach for a few moments, if the Lord willing. Now, remember the service tonight. I want to get out just quick in the next twenty minutes, if I can, the thirty. For that'll give you a chance to get home and get back, and I've got to have a little time to myself, if we're going have healing services tonight.

L-3 Say, Brother Joseph was making a mention a few moments ago, of that Angel of the Lord... Tomorrow they'll have a host of those pictures here that was taken of It, and some of the books, for those who doesn't have them. We don't sell them on Sunday, or anything. And we just... Way I buy them at forty percent off. And Mr. Wood and Mr. Beeler setting right down here, my agents for those things, and they will take care of them, have a stand, or something Monday. If any one would like to have one of the pictures, why, you can just have one, many, or as many as you want.
Now, tonight is healing service, so be sure to come early, now at six o'clock to receive your--your number. They... We call them by number; we give out new cards every day, because new people comes in. And if we give them all at one time they don't get a chance. And many of you knows the regulations of the campaign. We try to run it just as honest and truly before God, as we possibly know how to do it.

L-4 And so that's the best way we can find, that every day, everybody... If you give out all the cards when you first come in, then somebody come in the second day they don't have a chance. And if you... You have to give them out every day--every day, newly. And if you give them to ministers, what we tried for awhile, maybe they would give some outsider a card and one of their people, and then maybe they didn't get to get in the line. And so there you are, it causes hard feelings.
And we--we just solved it all down in these eight years of travel, till we found out that maybe, handling and giving them out every day ourselves and give them to the people, just a little bit before the service starts... And we can call them, whatever the Lord puts upon our heart to call from.
