<TITLE>01. Par 1-5</TITLE>56-0527, At Kadesh-Barnea, Branham Tabernacle, Jeffersonville, IN, 68 min
L-1 She was so scared, her heart was about racing at ninety miles an hour, looked like. She was up home awhile ago and she was in the room trying to hum it over, and fix it over, and...
Well, puts me in mind of Brother Moore when he... His little boy, he said he wanted to preach, and he was about seven or eight years old; he kept saying, "Pappy, I want to preach." So one night before the congregation, Mr. Moore said, "Now, folks," said, "David setting here (and setting up there like an old clergyman, you know, and his head all up)," he said, "he wants to preach a little while tonight."
So he run up to the platform, jumped down out of his chair, run up there, you know, and stopped; and he thought he'd just tear right into it. And he looked one way and the other, said, "Just won't work." Run back and set down. [Brother Branham laughs--Ed.] I seen a lot of times I thought it wouldn't work. So just--that was all right though.

L-2 Their mothers used to sing for us, Mabel and Meda. I'd like to hear them sing again sometime, wouldn't you? I'd just like to hear them sing. Maybe we can get them to team up next Sunday night and sing the song for me they sing when I left the church. You remember when it was--what it was? "The Sands has been washed in the footprints... the Stranger," and then, "They'll Come From The East And West (let's see,) And feast with the King, to dine as His guests." I think that's the way it goes. But I'd like to hear them. How many like to hear them about next Sunday night if we're around? Sure. Mabel are you here? Is she here, Doc? She hears it, and Meda's back there, so they can practice up a little 'cause the girls are going to run away from them after awhile, won't they? That's right, have to practice a little now and get started this next week.

L-3 Tonight coming down, and just a few moments ago family left, and I was alone with the Lord to pray a little. I drove down past the old Tabernacle and seen the cars lined up out here. You know, it just brings back old memories of a long time ago, when used to have in here, come in, and have great services and last till two and three o'clock in the morning. The people just sets around together. You know, many of those old timers are up here in the grave today; I mean their bodies, but they're in glory. And generations keep coming on, the younger ones moving up. Won't be long till we'll be gone, the other generation will--the other young ones take our place. So it behooves us to live every day (doesn't it?) just for the Lord, Him alone.

L-4 Now, I know tomorrow is a work day for the people who have to get out and go to work, so we're--try to let out early tonight. Is there a baptism service, anything to follow this? All right.

L-5 Now, this blessed old Bible is the road Map to--from the cradle to--to the grave and to heaven, all the way through. And we love it because the contents of This is where we find the plan of salvation to save to the uttermost. Now, before we open It, let's speak to the Author, while we bow our heads just a moment.
Our heavenly Father, we thank Thee tonight for all that has been done already in the service: for the hymns and for the--all that has already taken place. And we're grateful tonight to be assembled here under the roof of this little building in the Name of the Lord Jesus with this gracious promise, that "Wherever two or three are gathered in My Name, I'll be in their midst." And we know that Thou art here.
