<TITLE>18. Par 64-67</TITLE>L-64 And Doctor Reedhead said, "Brother Branham, I raked my foot on the ground, a defeated Christian," and said, "I raised my hand and said if I ever get a chance to talk to you, Brother Branham," said, "I want to talk to you." He said, "I got so many degrees that I could plaster the walls with them." He said, "I've tried since seven years old, everything..." Said, "Well, I'll make my B.A... When I do this, I'll do this; I'll find it." And said, "Where is Jesus in all of it?"
I said, "He's not in any of it."
He said, "Do you mean the teacher's has been wrong?"
I said, "In one way, yes."
He said, "Now, look, Brother Branham, you being a Baptist, you ought to know truth." Now, that was... 'Course he was a Baptist too, you know. He said, "You ought to know truth." He said, "But I've seen the Pentecostals kick over the chairs, and scream, and holler, and jump up-and-down, and froth at the mouth," he said, "and tear up the furniture." He said, "But I want to ask you something, you dealing with them, is there anything like the baptism of the Holy Ghost?"
I said, "Yes, sir."
He said, "When can I get it?"
I said, "When you want it."
He said, "I do now."
And he fell across my coffee table in the living room, and there received the baptism of the Holy Ghost. Doctor Reedhead's the president of the big Sudan Mission. Certainly.

L-65 I said, "Sure, we got carrying on; we got sham; we got make-belief, and everything like that; but behind it all there's a genuine resurrected Lord Jesus Christ." Amen. That's right. I said, "Certainly, the devil's right in there pounding away with everything he can, and giving false conceptions and everything else. That don't do away with the real thing. Jesus Christ has risen from the dead."
And tonight my dear brother and sister, I'm contending for the faith that was once delivered to the saints, that Jesus Christ has risen from the dead and is just the same yesterday, today, and forever. Amen. Shall we pray.

L-66 Our heavenly Father, Your Words are always true. Maybe we haven't faith to confirm them, or make them live again, but dear God, I, with all my heart I believe every Word of it's the truth. I pray that You'll help tonight, such a wonderful audience, to receive and drink in the Word. It just inspires us, Lord. And I maybe, run over time. I pray that You'll make manifest tonight, like when the great Paul preached the same Gospel. And a boy fell from the window and got killed; he laid his body over him after preaching that kind of a Gospel and life come back in the boy, after preaching all night long.
O God, I pray that You'll bring new life and new hope to every person, that's here that's without God and without hope. For those that's without hope and sickness, God, may Your Holy Spirit come tonight and do something that would cause their faith to mount up and receive Jesus Christ as their Healer and their Saviour. I pray this in Jesus' Name. Amen.

L-67 Now, if you will, that's on the music, sister, real softly, "Only Believe," just a moment.
Now, how many here will do this for me now, just while you take your time. Don't be nervous. You're a very nice audience. Everybody sets just as quiet. I--I commend you for that. You're one of the nicest audiences I ever talked to, and I've been around the world. So you... That's a whole lot. You're very nice. I like you; you're very conservative, and I--I appreciate that. I just learned today Germans, and Swedes, and--and whatevermore, in here, but you're a nice group of people. And I certainly love you and appreciate you.
