<TITLE>11. Par 42-46</TITLE>L-42 Said, "Now, wait a minute, Jairus. Your doctor's turned you down, he can't do nothing, and you know He can't down there; that's just a bunch of emotion. The man has mental telepathy; that's how He calls those people out in the audience. That's how those visions or false things. It's only a scheme; it's a trick; it's all made up. Don't go down there, Jairus."
But something down in Jairus' heart says, "It comes from God, and I've got to get there." Right down on the audience he went, pushing right and left. The first thing you know, he runs into Jesus. He said, "Lord (oh, my), my little girl's laying at the point of death, come lay Your hands upon her; that's all You have to do. Just come put Your hands on her. She'll live if You'll come do it." Amen. Point of contact, Jesus' hands... "Come, lay Your hands on her."

L-43 Now, the centurion, the Gent... The Gentile didn't want that. He said, "I'm not even worthy that You come under my roof." He said, "I'm a man; I have authority. I say to this one, 'Go do it,' and he does it. I say to this one, 'Come here,' and he does it, 'cause I have supreme rule over this man. And I recognize You as having supreme rule. I'm a man of authority, so I know what a man of authority means. You don't have to come; You just speak, death will depart." There you are. "Only speak the Word, and he will live." Amen. I kinda like that better, don't you? "Speak the Word, and he will live, because I recognize You as being the supreme Ruler of heavens and earth. Every demon power is under Your control." Amen. "All demons is subject to You. I believe that You're the virgin born Son of God. Just say the Word." I like that, don't you?

L-44 Little old Martha, when she run out to meet Jesus, her brother already in the grave and decaying, rottening away, skin worms crawling in, his face falling in from the skin worms eating him up, she said, "Lord, if Thou would've been here, my brother would not have died. But even now (Amen), even now, whatever You ask God, God will give it to You."
There's your faith, "Just ask Him. You just turn Your eyes towards heaven and ask Him. I'll go down and shake hands with my brother." Amen.
That struck His heart. He raised up, He said, "Thy brother shall live again--shall rise again."
Said, "Yes, Lord, in the last day at the general resurrection, I know he will rise again."

L-45 Jesus said, "I am the Resurrection, and Life: he that believeth in Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: and whosoever liveth and believeth in Me shall never die." Said, "Believest thou this?"
She said, "Yea, Lord. I believe that You're just exactly what You confess to be. I believe that You are the Son of God that should come into the world." You see it?
He said, "Where have you buried him?" Something's got to take place.

L-46 She walks down there... As a lady belonging to a certain church, Christian Science, said to me some time ago. She said, "Brother Branham, you put too much exercise in what you talk about." Said, "You brag too much on Jesus being Divine."
I said, "He was Divine."
She said, "He couldn't have been Divine; He was only a human."
I said, "He was both human and God."
