<TITLE>02. Par 5-8</TITLE>L-5 Visions are something that--that tears you to pieces. It's not li... It's living in a different world. Could you just imagine being asleep and then wake up all at once and be half asleep and half awake, and then again and again and again and again, and imagine what it would do to you? Could you just think when the great Daniel saw one vision and was troubled at his head for many days (See?), just one vision. And it's...
One time led me several years ago almost to a total break for life, even to they rushed me to Mayo Brother's, and they said, "There's not absolutely a chance in the world for you to ever live (See?) and come out of it." But God's grace brought me out. I promised Him then I'd watch...
Now, in the--in the prayer lines I don't get to too many people. And I've had many critics on this. And they've wrote me letters and say, "Mr. Roberts and many, Mr. Allen and them will pray for five hundred people while you're praying for five." Well, I just have to do it the way the Lord told me to do it. And that's...

L-6 Or, my ministry is not a contact for each person, but it's (See?) just to represent the Lord Jesus in a--in a sign of a gift to everyone because... No matter where they're... It isn't my hands that would count. It isn't Mr. Roberts' hands that would count. It's your hands on Him that counts. That's what... That's the One 'cause after all, He's finished the work. The only thing that we can do is preach it by the Word or some gift to represent its finished work.
And I appreciate Brother Gordon Peterson, the pastor of this church. I think you got one of the nicest churches here that I've ever come into. And I don't say that because I'm on your platform.
And my son, young Doctor Branham... [Brother Branham and congregation laugh--Ed.] I hope he didn't hear that. He will never get up no more. He came over, gave his testimony this morning; he said, "Daddy, they got one of the finest young people classes and things you ever seen." And I was so happy for that. And I... The Lord has been dealing greatly with Billy right in this meeting. And I believe someday he will walk along all right and follow right along. Well, I hoping so anyhow. He might be listening, so I better cut off right here. So that's...

L-7 The vision, and it's... I'm watching the clock to get--get my time started on time if I can at eight-thirty. But here's the vision. I had promised people... Can you hear me all right? I'd... How about me setting this just a little closer. Is that--is that better? Thank you.
And the vision was this. Years ago a vision started... The first one I can remember, I was still in a little long dress. I don't know whether you know what that means or not, a little boy, had a dress on. And we raised in the mountains of Kentucky, and I... Little boys and girls both wear little dresses until they're great big children. And I remember that dress that I had on. It was a...

L-8 And I remember a preacher shooting at some birds and seventh shot hit me in the leg. I sure remember that. And that I was... Mother said then that I was... Well, I was... We come to Indiana when I was three years old. So you can imagine. That was about a year later, so I couldn't have been over two years old at the time when it first happened.
But when I was first born, this Light that you see on the picture here was standing over the bed, five o'clock one morning on April the sixth. That's my mother and father's, and the ones' that was around testimony in a little cabin up in Kentucky. They didn't know what it meant, and none of the rest of us did. And I didn't know till just about ten years ago. All my life, it was visions.
