<TITLE>03. Par 12-14</TITLE>L-12 Am I looking at Henry Groat. God bless you, Brother Henry, I haven't seen you for a long time and brother. I just happened to look back and seen Dad and recognized him.
When I had my great breakdown or come off the field for about eight months, they were real brother and daddy to me. They stayed right with me all the time. I never will forget the day that Brother Groat there, we went out in the cornfield to pray. I was so nervous; I stayed in the vision so long I couldn't tell whether I was in or out. I never will forget Brother Groat when he knelt down to pray with me. He put his arms around me, just simple like said "Now, Papa God, will You come and help Brother Branham? Papa God, will You come help Brother Branham?" That's always stayed with me, Brother Groat.
Oh, what will it be, Brother Groat, someday I hope to have my arm around you and set down by the evergreen trees where the fountains of the waters of Life is flowing from under the throne. We will be in the Presence of our Papa God then forever and forever to live in His Presence.

L-13 Now, God has made it so simple, and--the Bible. And to make the gospel so simple to even a person like myself that's uneducated would have an opportunity to speak, preach the gospel. And I--I was saying to the brethren coming over, how funny I feel to get up there today and know that before scholars and some of the smartest men in the country is setting here, and how my grammar how poor it is, and how, oh, unqualified... But you know, probably you all would feel like I do if you had to set before some bishops and so forth. But you know brethren, God doesn't dwell so much in theology. He dwells in love and humbleness, where you can really, everybody can get acquainted with Him and know Him. I'm so glad that He's--He hasn't selected just a little handful or a certain denomination. He said "Whosoever will." And so that even gives me and you a chance to come in and have fellowship and speak of Him.

L-14 Now, God has made it so wonderful that in the Old Testament, He, where usually I go to for refuge for a text once in a while... He's made the Old Testament in parables and in symbolic forms to express Hisself and His doings, that the simple-minded might be able to have a conception of His will and what He's done.
Many times in the Old Testament, how I have went back to find the Old typing the New. Always, God did and what He's doing now in the New Testament, He foreshadowed it in the Old Testament. And all of those who neglected God and forsaken God in the Old Testament, we can see by example what become of them. And those who dared to have faith in Jehovah and stepped out in the Old Testament, we see what happened to them. Now, we make our choice.
And we thank God for a free nation and a place of worship to where we each one can set our sails in the faith of God and fly away from this earth. I'm glad of that today for there's plenty of places you couldn't do that.
