<TITLE>21. Par 89-92</TITLE>L-89 And this Baptist minister hired a... the... a member of the American Photographers Association to come take some pictures of him, while he skinned Mr. Bosworth, my associate, and... in a debate. And he took his fist and put it under Brother Bosworth's nose, said, "Now, take the picture like that." And they had the big camera setting right here. They took his picture. Then he pointed his finger in his face, like this, and said, "Now, take it like this." And they took it like that. Young Baptist preacher, Dr. Best, Southern Baptist church... And then made all those pictures like that...
And then Brother Bosworth said, "I know Brother Branham's in the building, if he want to come dismiss the audience, all right." I came down. Hundreds of people put their hands together, people even trying to touch your clothes, come down. We had a marvelous meeting.

L-90 And I said, "I am sorry that these things has to happen," but I said, "I'm not a healer, certainly not. I only pray for the sick." I said, "Mr. Best, if somebody... Well, do you believe that people can be saved?"
"Yes, sir."
I said, "What if somebody called you a Divine Saviour then? See? If I, by preaching the Gospel of deliverance for Divine healing makes me a Divine healing, if you preach they can be saved, on the same basis, makes you a Saviour." And I said, "You wouldn't want to be called that, certainly not." I said, "You don't save people; you only tell them that Jesus saved them. And I tell them Jesus healed them, and that's the same thing." And I said, "But I speak the truth, and if I speak the truth, God will vindicate the truth."

L-91 And about that time, the whirlwind started from the heavens, and here It come down right over where I was at. And this big camera shot the picture. And it was the Catholic boy that did the picture taking. And he went down that night... I said, "God's already spoke, I'll just move out now."
And then, I went--I went on the hotel, the Rice Hotel. The Catholic boy and a few associate of his went down to develop Mr. Best's pictures. Said, "What do you think about that?" Said, "Reckon that could've been?"
And the Catholic boy said, "Now..." The Jew said, "I don't believe none of it."
And the Catholic boy said, "But you know what?" Said, "If he was a Catholic, I'd believe it was true," but said, "in order..." said, "Now, he's backed... His parent's is Catholic, his people before him," said, "it might be."

L-92 And so they took the picture in to... not knowing what this would be. They took Mr. Bosworth's picture in so they could get it to Mr. Best, the glossy. And they put it in the acid, and he set there, smoked a few cigarettes, till it went through the acid, brought the picture out, and every one of Mr. Best, with his finger under Mr. Bosworth's nose, every one of them was blank. God would not permit that man stand there and put his finger under that godly, saintly, old warrior. No, sir.
And when he pulled my picture out, lo and behold, not only my picture was there, but there was the Angel of the Lord on the picture. And they called George J. Lacy. Anybody that knows enough about the FBI and fingerprinting and document, knows who he is. He's the best in the world. And they called him. He took it into Houston into the Shell building, and put it under infra-ray light. He examined the camera for double exposure. He did everything that could be done for it. They took the picture many times before, but it wasn't under this... It wasn't authentic. The newspaper picture--camera took it, and we put it a picture, but it couldn't be proven just by a newspaper camera. But this was absolutely authentic.
