<TITLE>13. Par 92-97</TITLE>L-92 Enticing spirits going forth, demons under disguises... Look, we're in the last days. We're in the end time. The world is just about ready to come to its head, like a sore boil somewhere that's going to explode one of these days, and the core jump out of it. It's become filthy. There's no salve can heal it. They've rejected the--the serum. They've rejected the treatment. You take a boil a-rising yonder, and if you don't take penicillin or something to knock it out or something another, it'll just keep rising till it'll burst.
That's what the world's done. It started not long ago to letting down. They got off on a great big ideas. False spirits come in and begin to tell people this, that, or the other. We've broke up into nine hundred and some different denominations, every one with a different view. They say, "We believe this. Period. That's all we believe." They can't let the Holy Spirit come in. They can't have the right of way. God's got a bunch of people that can shout; then everybody had to shout. They got some to speak in tongues; then everybody had to speak with tongues. They got it all like this till it become what? Absolutely contaminated with enticing spirits, enticing people to do these emotions when there's no God in it at all. Then they go out and live any kind of a life they desire to live and then call it Christian.
And the world sets and looks on and says, "Well, looky there, I'm as good as they are."

L-95 Like I said the other night about the hog, about the sinner. You can't blame... A sinner's a sinner; don't try to reform him. Don't try to tell him this, that, or the other. He's a sinner to begin with. He's a pig to begin with. He don't know no different. If he goes to the movies, and he goes on Sunday, and he goes to ball games, and he does all these things; he's a sinner to begin with. His nature's like a hog. The old hog stick his nose down in the manure pile and eat all the grains out of it and everything. Well, that's--he is a hog. You can't blame him; he's a hog. That's the way with sinners. But when you go and call yourself a Christian and stick your nose in with him, then you're no better than he is; but you're worse, "Come out from among them." Let go of the world. Let go. Let God.

L-96 Let go. How do you let go? So many people are wondering today, saying, "Well, Brother Branham, how do you let go?" I know you've heard a lot of theology on it. Let go. Lot of people just work up a sweat trying to let go. Many people come around and say, "I'm going to go on a forty day fast so I can do something." You don't need a forty day fast. You need to let go of the world and all of these devilish things and take God's Word in your heart. You got to be taught how to do that. You don't do it by jumping up-and-down. Neither do you do it on a forty day fast. You do it by a surrendered heart to Almighty God;

L-97 Like a little baby. I notice when a little baby back there, his mother tried to put his little jacket on him this morning. He wanted to get his little arm in the sleeve. He couldn't put his arm in there. He don't know how. You've got to guide his little arm. He wants to get his arm in there but he's just beating all around it. He never gets to the sleeve. He knows he's not in the sleeve.
And so do you know that you're not right with God when you're still backbiting, lying, and doing everything. You can't be right with God. I don't care how many churches you belong to, until your soul becomes converted. Brother, that's old fashion, but that'll boil down and put soup in your soul. That's right.
