<TITLE>14. Par 45-47</TITLE>L-45 Now, Peter said there... He said, "Now, what can we do if we want to receive this?"
He said, "Repent." What is repent? Means to turn around. You was going with the world, turn around and go up towards God. Now, you're looking down this way; and look up this a way. "Repent." Run along with a big long face like this, "Well, bless God, I've been in the church for forty years." Then repent, look up this way and say, "Hallelujah, there it is." Yeah. That's what you want to do. Turn around, look different. That's what you should do.
"Repent, every one of you," and not be sprinkled, no such a thing in the Bible. That's some of the dogma that you packed out of the... before the reformation. The Bible don't teach that. Said, "Repent, every one of you, and be baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins, and you shall receive a robe. (Amen.) For the promise is unto you."
How long is these robes going to be give out? Until the wedding supper takes place. That's right. Oh, for the first age? No, until... "For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to them that's far off (What?), even as many as the Father gives the invitation to." Is that right? "As many as the Lord our God shall call," is that the Scripture? Well, if God's still giving out invitation, He's still got robes. Glory. I'm so glad tonight for it, aren't you?
How? Repent, change your way of living. Look up towards God. God knocked at your heart. Then turn and repent, say, "Yes, Lord." Don't look at the church any longer. Don't look at the people any longer. Look at Him. Repent; look this way. "Then be baptized," he said, "in the Name of Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins, and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost." That's what the Bible says. "For (quoting Scripture) the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to them that's far off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call." The wedding supper's on; God's still giving the invitations. It's still, Jesus is the Door. "I am the door." He's still standing there, and everyone that comes by His invitation He gives him a robe. Amazing thing.

L-46 Not long ago Brother Price just returned from Siam. And if Brother Tommy, I don't see him back there, but I guess he's around here somewhere, he was with him. And Brother Price told me at the Christian Business Men's Convention, before the audience, he said, "Brother Branham," or to the audience, rather, excuse me. He said, "Them folks didn't even know which was right or left hand. They never seen a newspaper in their life. They never knowed there was an Eisenhower, or MacArthur, or anything else. They never seen as much as a screen door. But let those people who were perfectly pagans, and when they receive the Holy Ghost, they act and do the same thing that people does in Chicago when they receive the Holy Ghost." For the same robe that's put on here is put on there: "As many as the Lord our God shall call." Hallelujah.
Oh, brethren, shake your ecclesiastic self. Shake that church doctrine away from you. Come back to God. That's what the church needs tonight.

L-47 The supper call's on. The robes are being given out. God is taking from the Gentile a people for His Name's sake in the last days, bringing them in through campaigns of healing, the lame, blind, halt, and withered. These big starchy stuck-ups won't even come. They think they're better. So Jesus said, "They won't taste My supper." Hallelujah. "Taste and see the Lord is good." It tastes like honey in the rock. Amen. Oh, how good it is.
I've seen it in the church when the people would all be filled in a little prayer meeting somewhere till the children even lick their tongues, so good, spiritually speaking. Wonderful. Sure, it's honey.
