<TITLE>16. Par 69-73</TITLE>L-69 Now, He knows you. He knows every one of you. He knows just what you're desiring. Now, our old fashion way (while you have your head bowed) is for people to come to the altar. That's fine. I like that. That's not a Bible affair. That's just a church doctrine. "As many as received Him, to them gave He the power to become sons and daughters of God."
Right, while you're setting, and you've raised your hand, a dozen or more of you here, will you now accept in the depths of your heart, after you say you feel that you should, will you same group that raised your hand, would you raise your hand, say, "I will now accept this, Brother Branham. I'll now accept Jesus. No matter what I've done. I know accept Him as my Lover and my Saviour?" God bless you, sir. God bless you, sir. God bless you. God bless you, lady.

L-70 "I now will accept Him. Something in my heart telling me. That I--I--I want to. There's something telling me that I must, right now. This is my day. Maybe the next time I will be too far away." God bless you, mister. God bless you, brother. God bless you, lady, I see your hand.
"Now, I feel I must do it." Friends, the church is cooling off. America's going to be judged pretty soon. Every nation received it. What are you going to be a hundred years from now. You're going to be somewhere. Sometime between this minute and a hundred years from now, you're going out of this world.
You'd better be sure. Don't trifle with it. The Word's being preached by the Holy Spirit, and It's the Truth coming from God's Word. There's someone who loves you.

L-71 Now, you can't raise your hand, unless Somebody calls you to raise your hand. That's the Holy Ghost. "No man can come to Me except My Father draws him first." And if He loves you well enough to knock at your heart and say, "Yes, I mean you. This is the time. I want to come in before I have to take you off this earth prematurely." I will now ask you to raise your hand. Won't you do it then?
One more say, "I now from the depths of my soul accept It." Now, I'm going to pray for you. God bless you, lady. I just felt, sister dear, that was you. I looked back there. Of course, you all realize I'm just a few days be... Few hours before the meeting yonder. I'm staying in my room a lot now, praying--healing service. The Angel of the Lord is near. Great things will take place. I looked back and seen something standing in the room. It was over a young woman. I seen others raise their hand. I felt a witness that that was truth.

L-72 I thought if I make one more call, that that woman just raise her hand, and she did. That was it. Now, God, the Lover of our soul, who are we anyhow? Why, before the world was ever formed You knowed ever mosquito would be on earth, every ant, ever chigger. You're infinite. And You knew that this morning that people would raise their hand. You knew it. Why, You seen them before the world begin. You knowed it always, and You knew that this thing would take place, that You might express Your Love to your people. You said you raised up Pharaoh and hardened his heart that you might show Your power. How much more will You express Your love?

L-73 Satan, that evil one who perverted right to wrong, You let him do it, because You'd express Your love then to Your people. O God, we love You so much. We appreciate You, and I pray, God, that these people live a Christian humble life from this day henceforth, as they've accepted You.
And if there be others, maybe I never seen them all. Maybe You never showed them to me, but you talked to them. If there's others, bless them also. For we ask it in Jesus Christ's Name. Amen.
 There is a fountain filled with blood,
 Drawn from Immanuel's veins,
 And sinners plunged beneath that flood,
 Lose all their guilty stains.
