<TITLE>12. Par 39-42</TITLE>L-39 Notice, and there they was. And when he went down there, he walked away, and looked at Israel. And look how hypocritical. The king took him around, said, Now look, you get way over here." and showed just the back part, the worst part of Israel. Now, watch. It's this vine. Now, here's this vine trying to curse this vine.
Now, notice. He said he show him the uttermost part. That's the way the devil does it to the people of God. They won't say anything, say, "I will give you a thousand dollars to anybody can show me anybody was healed. Bring it up here."
I challenged one of them one time. He said, "Let me cut a little girl on the arm, and you stand there and heal it, and I will believe you are a healer."
I said, "You need healing worse than anybody, that I know of, and it's healing in the head." I said, "There's something wrong with you." That's right.

L-40 And now, see, they showed the uttermost parts. Said, "Well, I know somebody was prayed for, that didn't get well. Certainly, I know a lot was preached to didn't saved, either. That's exactly true. See, but they show the uttermost parts, the back parts, the worst part. That's the way the devil does it. And watch how it happens. Took him out there and showed him the back parts of it. And then notice. When he said got all together... Now, here's the picture. Watch this brethren; watch this.
This vine here, and this vine here, this one is of Abel coming up, this is of Cain coming up. Cain was religious; this one's religious. Cain was fundamental; they were fundamental. Abel had the right way, by revelation, by signs and wonders. God always has, and always will vindicate His Church and people by miraculous signs and wonders. Call to me any time that a revival ever broke out through time in the history, that there was'nt signs and wonders followed it.
What's the matter today, my brethren, is this: We are letting down. We're letting down to mental theology. We're letting down to intellectual faith, when we ought to pray until God moves in the audience and goes to doing something for us.

L-41 When I landed in India, the Indian men all met me out there and said, "Now, look, Brother Branham, as far as theology, you ain't got nothing in America that understands that Book." And that's true. For that's and eastern Book; it is not a--a western Book. It's a different slant altogether. Said, "We know the Bible; we had it before you was even a nation, hundreds of years." That's exactly the truth. Saint Thomas went down there. I was right in the church where he preached. That's right. Said, "We know more about the Bible than all your teachers together know. But what we want to know, what we are wondering: Can we find a man with faith enough to make It manifested? That's what we want to know. We want to see the Bible re-acted and lived again. If you're could you've got the right-hand of fellowship."
I said, "Jesus Christ raised the dead; and He's the same yesterday, today, and forever." Amen. That's true.

L-42 Now, there was Moab setting up here. Now look, the first thing Moab done... Notice, he went got all of his dignitaries, all the--well, the--the councilmen, and all of them out there, and all the bishops, and the right reverends, and the honorary reverends, and the Ph.D., and the B.B.D., or ever which you wanted to call it; and brought them all out there, thought we'd show God our dignitaries. See the same old sprit of the devil. See?
Well now, they were fundamental; they said, "Now, let's see. They built seven altars up here on the hill, seven altars. That's exactly what God required. They killed seven bullocks, clean sacrifice what God required. Notice, and killed seven rams, speaking of the coming of the Son of God, fundamental.
