<TITLE>12. Par 38-40</TITLE>L-38 Someone else now, would raise your hand? "Pass Me Not..." God bless you, brother. God bless you, sister. God bless you, young lady. God bless you, back there, sir. So will you over here, lady? Wonderful. "Pass me not, O gentle Saviour..." God bless you, brother, back there, the... "Hear my humble cry, "Oh Jesus, Thou Son of David...While on others Thou art calling, do not pass me by."
I'm told, last night, way back here at the side, there was an elderly man, seventy or eighty years old, setting back there. Doctor give him a shot: paralyzed him, shaking with palsy. Some of his loved ones brought him in to hear the service. While setting there, and after closing the service, with the great anointing of the Holy Ghost, the elderly brother closed his eyes and went to meet God. Who's next? I don't know. It might not be an old man; it might be a young man, a boy, or girl. I don't know.

L-39 If you're not right with God, will you raise your hand now? Somebody hasn't. Raise your hand. There's been twenty or thirty. Raise your... God bless you, sir. God bless you. Someone... God bless you, sir. Someone else just... Feel like I'm constrained by the Holy Spirit to just linger a little longer. Someone else? A lady there in a chair, God bless you, sister. That is wonderful. He sees your hand; even if I don't, He sees it. Way up in the balcony behind the glass up there, someone in there would raise up your hand and say, "God, be merciful"? God bless you, sir; see your hand up there. Someone else? "Be merciful to me, dear God. Brother Branham, if I never see you again this side of glory, by God's grace I mean to shake your hand over there. I'm coming upon the basis of God's Word. What you said about it tonight, He's willing to take me, not willing that I should perish, and I cannot raise my hand, without first God telling me to, 'cause no man can come except the Father draws him. Upon my conviction now, that you're right, that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and He died for me, and He's resurrected again for my justification, and lives here with me, I want Him to see my hand. I now accept Him from the depths of my soul as my Saviour and desire the baptism of the Holy Ghost to come upon me." All right. One more? All right, shall we pray?

L-40 Now heavenly Father, You saw every hand; twenty or thirty hands, perhaps, I do not know. But there's one thing that I do know, that every hand went up, an angel wrote it down, or some way; it's recorded in glory tonight. Satan's defeated to begin with. One soul's worth ten thousand worlds. And they raised their hand with the sincerity of their heart; they believe You to be the Son of God, and want You to have mercy upon them. And You said in Your own Word, "No man can come except the Father draws him. And all that the Father has give Me, will come to Me and none of them will be lost. No man could pluck them from My hand; My Father gave them to Me. No one can take them away. I'll give him everlasting Life and will raise him up at the last days."
Little boys, middle age, young men, old men, young women, old women, together they raised their hands. They're concerned, Lord, knowing that they must leave this world and they want to be remembered in Your Kingdom. As the thief at the cross said, "Remember me, Lord, when Thou comest into Thy Kingdom." And Thou did say to him, "Today, today shalt thou be with Me in paradise." Thank You, Father, for every one. I pray that You'll keep them in the palms of Your hands, by the shed Blood. And some glorious day, when there'll be no more day and night, for all will be day there... The sun will never shine, 'cause the Lamb is the Light; there'll be no darkness. May I be able to shake that hand that raised up tonight, when we're looking upon Him Who saved us by His grace. For we ask it in His Name. Amen.
