<TITLE>13. Par 55-58</TITLE>L-55 Notice that Kadesh-Barnea comes into play, where there had to be a judgment. And Moses chose twelve, one out of each tribe. And he sent them over to spy out the land. When they come back, I wish you would notice what a report, "Oh," they said, "it's a goodly land. Oh, it's a wonderful land. It's flowing with milk and honey." But ten of them said, "We can't take it. We can't take it. Oh," said, "we met the--the Amorites, and Midianites, and the--and the Canaanites and all that. Why, we looked like grasshoppers aside of them. They're great big fellows, and their cities are all walled in, and there's no way for us to ever get in. Oh, our hearts are fainting within us; we can't take it." And the popular vote of the people, the people received it.
But there stood two there; one named Caleb and one named Joshua, who brought back a cluster of grapes that two men had to pack it. Caleb said, "Quieten yourselves before the prophet. Quieten yourself." He said, "We are well able to take it. Let's go get it immediately."

L-56 What we need in this hour is a man to challenge the promise of God before the people. God promised to pouring out of a Pentecostal blessing in the last days; I mean a real Pentecostal pour out. And it's time for it to come; another Kadesh-Barnea has arrived. Yes, sir.
They said, "We can well do it. Sure we can do it." What was it? Those cowardly church members was looking to what they could see with their eyes, but Caleb and Joshua was looking to God's promise. I don't care how much opposition they had; how big the giants looked; how big the fences looked; they were looking to God's promise.
Every man and woman tonight that wants to go on with God, don't pay any attention what the world says, whether we can or whether we can't; God promised it, and that settles it. God said so. I like that. When God says so, that settles it forever.

L-57 I tell you tonight; we've had a whole lot of false pretense; we've had a lot of makeup belief; we've had a lot of stuff that went out for a show. Certainly. The devil always throws his forerunners out yet as a counterfeit to scare the people. We've had a false Pentecost; we've had a false rain; we've had a false this and that. But in the midst of every bit of it, there's a genuine, the baptism of the Holy Spirit, and the genuine Pentecostal blessing again. There's a genuine Divine Healing; there's a genuine stir; there's a genuine people. And it's time for the march. That's right.

L-58 The people at the hour of decision now, you've got to make up your mind. This church has got to make up its mind. Every man comes to a place where there's a crucial hour. There was a crucial time come where you had to make up your mind, a judgment seat you was at. You had to say, "I am guilty or I am not guilty." When you're standing before the judge, you've got to make up your mind. And tonight the Branham Tabernacle's got to make up its mind. We're either going to go on or go back. That's right. You're going back to garlic, and--and leek, and stuff of Egypt, or you're going on with Angel's food to the promised land, where God made a promise. You're going on to an old fashion Holy Ghost revival, or you'll be wishy-washy, packing around, and pecking like a robin on a apple until the day you die. You've got to make your decision; you can't go on.
