<TITLE>20. Par 63-66</TITLE>L-63 Now, the Bible said, that, "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever." Right? And He's got to be the same in principle, the same in power, the same in every way, only in the corporal body. And He's using us. See, Jesus don't have any hands but yours and mine. See, we are the what? He is the Vine; we are the branches. Is that right? The vine don't bear fruit; the branches bear fruit. Is that right? You don't take the fruit off the vine; you take it off the branch.
So, but the energy of the branch comes from the vine. See? And if it's in the tree, it will bear the same kind of fruit the tree is. That makes Jesus the same yesterday, today, and forever, Saint John 15. See? Wherever you turn in the Bible, may be a new page for you, but you'll find out that's exactly the truth, right here in the Bible.
Now, the woman, I speak to her. If I don't know her, she raised her hand she doesn't know us. And I--may I say this, just before this happen; I felt something strike. If there be a critic here, inside or out, I am not responsible for what happens to you. Hear to it in Jesus' Name; horrible things have happened. I wouldn't stay at the meeting any longer. I'd go and come back tomorrow afternoon at the preaching service. Don't stay, critic. If we just had time to explain it to you. Don't stay; I will not be responsible.

L-64 Now, to the lady, me not knowing you, you not knowing me... You're here for some cause. You might be a critic yourself. I don't know. You'll find out in a few minutes whether you are or not. You'll see what happens and how they take you off the platform, maybe not even in life in your body. But that's up--between God and you. But I'm just His servant.
And now, if He is risen from the dead, and become the Vine, and His ministers becomes the branch, then the same Life that's in the Vine is in the branch. And Jesus said, "The same things that I do shall you also."
Now, if He has risen from the dead, then He's got to do the same thing that He did when He was here on earth, or He didn't raise from the dead. That's just right or wrong. See? He's either the truth or false.
Now, if the woman says she don't know me, I don't know her... And if I claim this, and Jesus raised from the dead, and if He will perform the same thing between she and I, that He did the woman at the well, one of the pictures, the same thing, will you all believe on Him with all your hearts?

L-65 I just want to talk to you. "What are you doing, Brother Branham?" You're spirits. See, you're human; you got a spirit. I'm a human, got a spirit. And you are a Christian to begin with, 'cause your spirit feels welcome. I wouldn't know but what you was a big critic myself; I wouldn't know. But the same Spirit that was upon our Lord Jesus, that said to the man that come with--Nathanael come with Philip, said, "Behold, an Israelite in whom there's no guile," a just man. He knew it.
And that astonished him, "How'd You know me, Rabbi?"
He said, "Before Philip called you, when you were under the tree I saw you." And then he believed.
Now, knowing you are a Christian, so how do I know that? Because the Holy Spirit here between us, you're spirit witnesses as soon as It contact that you are a Christian; you're a believer; you're not a critic.

L-66 Now, if the Lord Jesus will tell me what you're here for, will you be...? See, I couldn't heal you if you're sick. I couldn't heal you, or I couldn't give you your desire. It'd be your faith in Him. But I only claim He raised from the dead, you understand? Well, may the Lord grant it, sister. Just talking to you to contact your spirit.
But now, if the audience can still hear my voice, between she and I comes that same Light that you see in the picture, and she's going away from me. The woman, I see her in her doing her work, she is very, very, nervous. She drops things, and she's suffering with a--a skin trouble, which is a cancer in her skin. That's THUS SAITH THE LORD. Is that the truth? If it is, raise your hand?
