<TITLE>13. Par 42-45</TITLE>L-42 Look at Him. God stepping down. Was it a hard thing for Him to do, just to step into a little bunch of flesh? "Why," you say, "was it flesh?" Sure, He got hungry in that body, while He was here about a hour. He just stayed on here about a hour, Him and them Angels. The Angels stayed all night till the next morning, 'cause They had a job to do. But God just come down to walk around on earth a little while in a body of flesh, with old clothes on, dust all over it (God Himself), and went out and eat a cow, calf, drank her milk, eat some corn bread, some hoe cake. He did. He eat the butter, and the milk, and the calf, and the hoe cake. He got hungry while He was in this cosmic body down here. Hallelujah. Talk the resurrection to a body of God like that. What's the matter with the people? They're scared today. Don't be scared. Our heavenly Father watches over everything. He knows just exactly where it's at. Amen.

L-43 A man of God Who could go [Brother Branham makes a blowing sound--Ed.] and jump right in that body, come down and talk to you, what is it for Him to raise us up again? Amen. Only thing He done, He's just drawing a picture of it (That's all.), just getting a picture drawed up here what you will be. Amen. See, this is a frail; it's got to go back. No matter how good you treat it, it's got to go back. You know, people are very fond about this body. Oh, my.
I was standing not long ago to a great big museum. There was two young men standing there looking at the human body, a man weighing a hundred and fifty pounds, worth eighty-four cents in chemicals. Eighty-four cents, could you imagine that? You'll put a hundred dollar suit on eighty-four cents, ten dollar Stetson hat on the top of him. Some of the sisters will put a two hundred dollar mink coat around eighty-four cents and walk down the street. If it'd rain it would drown you. Taking care of that eighty-four cents... That's right. That's all your body's worth. But you got a soul that's worth ten million worlds. What about that? Amen. What about that soul? You'll certainly take care of the eight-four cents, but what about the soul that's worth ten thousand worlds? What about that?

L-44 Brother, it behooves you to consecrate your life to Jesus Christ, walk after Him, love Him, make ready for His coming. For only at this... Wish we had time to go into the chemical things to prove to you that your body's not born again, and it can't resurrect, if your soul's not born, rather, it can't go in the resurrection; it's impossible. It's like running the car without gas in it; you wouldn't do it. No matter how good your car is; that don't have a thing to do with it. It's got to have gasoline to run it. All right.

L-45 Notice. And Abraham setting out there in his tent, he looked up; standing out there in the bushes stood three Men. And you know Abraham was a prophet. He looked over there, and he said, "Oh..." He run out, and fell down, and said, "My Lord, You've passed by this way; now come get Your feet washed, and sit down just awhile, and let--I'll get you something to eat." He slipped into the tent and he said, "Sarah, quickly knead some bread, put it on the hearth and cook it right quick." Went out and got a little fat calf, and killed it, and said now, "Dress this right quick now, and make some--some steaks. And let's get ready."
