<TITLE>11. Par 37-40</TITLE>L-37 Then on Divine healing, the same way. I'm not trusting the way I feel. If I did, I'd be in the bed this morning. But I'm trusting on His finished work. He said it; He promised it; I believe it. See? That's it. "Be ye therefore perfect."
Now, oh, may we get just a little bit to one side, something wrote up in my heart. Let me ask you something. We're living in the day of judgment now, not the great judgment, but the calling out of the Church. You believe it? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] We're living in the days of the segregation. There's a...?... a color segregation, trying to rise in the country. That's nonsense.
But there is a real segregation time: right from wrong. God separates His people, calls them out. Do you know that very word "church" means "segregated, called out, separated"? Amen. "Come out from among them," says the Bible. "Be not partakers of their sin and of their uncleanliness. And I will receive you unto Myself, and you'll be sons and daughters unto Me. And I'll be God unto you. Come out." It's a separating time. And so much the more as you see this day approaching...

L-38 The church that once tried to walk, they denominated themselves, and now they becoming one great big conglomeration of living like the world. See? Just as the Bible said they did in the Old Testament, so did they. Many of them, God called them out, showed them miracles and wonders. And the whole generation perished in the wilderness, after they had seen miracles, after God had performed miracles on them, after they had seen the glory of God. But in their heart they were unbelievers, murmur to God, complainers. God just said, "Separate yourself, Moses." And He started a new generation to take them over into the promised land.

L-39 Notice, how many in here this morning are Christians? Would you raise your hands? Just raise your hands up, "I'm a Christian." God be praised that you are a Christian. How did you become Christians? Because you said, "I--I want to become a Christian," because that you sought God with tears? Because God, by grace, called you. That's right. Not because you sought Him, because He sought you.
Now, if you notice, on the Baptist side, or the Presbyterian, the Arminian belief, they all go to seed. They say, "Well if God called me, hallelujah, then I'm all right. I'll do what I want to." That shows you haven't got it and wasn't called. That's right. If God calls you, you'll love Him so divinely; the things of the world will be dead to you. Right.
The young fellow setting back there, taking recordings now, he asked me coming in, which is one of my brethren, Mr. Mercier. And he takes recordings of the Messages and the meetings, and his partner, Leo, and--and Gene back there... Leo said to me, coming in this morning, he said; "Brother Branham, which was first: faith produces love, or love produces faith?"

L-40 I said, "Love produces faith, not faith, love." You have to love first, before you can have faith. So if you say you got faith, and don't Divinely love God, you're faith's in vain. See? You've got to love God. Therefore, you could join all the churches in the country, do anything you wanted to, make all the confessions you want to, but if there is a genuine, real Holy Spirit, borned again love in your heart for God, your faith's in vain. No matter how much you confess that you believe God, that has nothing to do with it. It's got to be borned in the human heart. Then you got Eternal Life, can never be separated from God.
Now, if we had time, seeing there's not many of you with Bibles, but over in the Book of the Revelations... Listen now. Put on your thinking cap and open up your heart. I want to say something here now. I want you to listen close, while the Holy Spirit is near.
