<TITLE>18. Par 61-64</TITLE>L-61 Someone else? You'll take Him as your personal Saviour this day. You raise your hand and say, "From this day, henceforth, I now will serve God with all my heart. I believe, and I want to be remembered. All my life something's knocked at my heart, knocked at my heart, and I've turned it down. And I'm afraid I might turn it down the wrong time now. And so this morning, God, by grace, I move out and raise my hand, saying, 'Be merciful to me, a sinner.'" Would there be another?
God bless you. And bless you, little girl. I see your hand too, honey. All right. Someone else? Would you raise your hand, saying, "Remember me"?

L-62 Is there a backslider would say, "Oh, Brother Branham, I'm a Christian, but I'm a poor excuse for one. I'm constantly backsliding and doing what's wrong. And I--I love God. God took me by grace; I know I'm His child. But I've never been active. I've never done the work of the Lord. I just somehow drift along, and in and out, and in and out. But something just keeps holding in my heart. I'm ashamed of my testimony. I'd be ashamed to meet God this morning, and not won soul or nothing. I--I--I--I want God to bring me back, and hug me to His bleeding side, and give me my whipping, what I deserve, and let me be a real Christian from this day, henceforth. I'll raise my hand to God. That's what I want You to do, God."
God bless you, lady. God bless you, you, you, you. That's... Now, God sees your heart. And a lot of you raised your hands, I know you. I know your up-and-down life. (While you're--the rest the Christians are praying.) I know you up-and-down condition. I know your backslidings. God knows them how much better, if I knew them.
I see you try to come to the altar, try to make a start, go back, try to make a start and go back.
A man just dropped dead a few days ago, that used to teach Sunday school here. I'm afraid some of his people's here; I'd call the name. Many of you know who I'm speaking about. That man would come to church; he'd go back; he'd come to church; he'd go back. He wanted to do right.

L-63 He had an experience with God. He was a good man at heart, but he got to fumbling with the world too much. He died a young man. He left the world. Now, I wonder what his reward will be. See? Don't do that. Don't do that, friend. Stay in the harness.
That man could come back to the earth today, and stand here yonder in the city anywhere, the very spot he died on, he'd scream and run towards the Tabernacle as hard as he could come. "Boy, I'm ready to be soul-saved this next week." When he begin to... He's across the line now.
But remember, as long as there is an eternity, as deep as there is a sky, there'll never have another chance to save a soul, never have another chance to live for God. He's made his final decision.

L-64 What about yours this morning? Let's make it right for God, while we have out head bowed. Give us a little chord, "On the other side of Jordan."
On the other... (Now, keep praying.) of Jordan,
In the sweet fields of Eden, (Slowly now, all of us),
Where the Tree of Life is blooming,
There is rest for you.
Jesus breaks every fetter,
Jesus breaks every fetter,
Jesus... (What's holding you back?) every fetter.
When and He sets you free!
I will ever, ever praise Him,
I will ever, ever praise Him,
I will ever, ever praise Him,
For He sets me free!
Now, all of us together, slowly.
On the other side of Jordan... (Just across the river yonder.)
In the sweet fields of Eden.
Where the Tree of Life is blooming,
There is rest for you.
Why, Jesus breaks every...
The indifferent fetters, the religious fetters, the denominational fetters, the sinful fetters, the unbelief fetters...
 Jesus... (His presence is near.) every fetter. (Just make your decision.)
When He sets you free!
I will ever, ever praise Him.
God bless you, sister. So glad you come...?...
... praise Him.
