<TITLE>13. Par 47-50</TITLE>L-47 But when you got His Spirit, it makes every emotion tick just right to the Word of God. It'll tick right with the Word. You'll say, "Well, now, Susie, just a moment. The Bible said, 'It's an abomination before Him to do that. And the love of Christ has come into my heart, and I love Him too much to do it. I love Him.'"
"John, do you mean to tell me, that you been associated with that bunch of fanatics, and you won't take a cigar because they was a new boy born in my house?"
"But you see," John, "it says that we must... The Holy Spirit in my heart tells me that we should abstain from all filth of the world." See, see?
Not, John, "Hallelujah, John. Glory to God, John. Pray for us, get oil on my hands. Glory to God, now I can speak in tongues, Hallelujah, I'll..."

L-48 No, no, that ain't the way the Holy Ghost behaves Itself. No, no. See? Ticks her off in decency. As Paul stood before Agrippa, and brought the Word, he said, "O Agrippa..."
And Agrippa said, "Paul, thou almost persuadeth me to be a Christian."
He said, "Agrippa, is it strange to you, being a Jew, that the Bible has already said and talked about Jehovah? Is it a strange thing to you, that God would raise the dead?"
Not, "Agrippa, Hallelujah. Glory to God, Agrippa. Hallelujah." No, that was crazy.
"But Agrippa, the Scripture said..."
See where the mainspring ticks you to, right back... You don't have to worry about it. It's all in God's program. It ticks you right back. "Don't take no thought what you'll say," said Jesus, "it's not you that speaketh, it's your Father that dwelleth in you. He's doing the speaking."

L-49 "Agrippa, you being a Jew, and know all the laws in the Old Testament, is it a strange thing to you, Agrippa, that God should raise the dead?"
Agrippa said, "Paul, too much learning maketh thee mad."
He said, "I'm not mad, Agrippa. But I'm only here telling you what God has did in the Word." See?
"Oh, you become a holy-roller, Paul."
"No, Agrippa, I'm only saying what God said here in the Scriptures, that He would raise up His Son, Christ Jesus, in the last day. And now, Agrippa, would it be a strange thing to you that Jehovah God, Who opened up the Red Sea, Who brought the miracles in that day, that He wouldn't perform miracles today?"
He said, "Paul? Thou almost persuadest me to be a Christian."
Paul said, "I wished you was as I am, only these chains that I'm wearing here on my hand and leg."
There's one of the springs in the middle of the new spirit, in the new heart is making every emotion, controlling them. See what I mean? There you are.

L-50 It's then, that when you slip your head from the yoke of the Word, say, "I'll go over and join, but I tell you..." and stick your head in the yoke with Christ, you say you yoked up with Him? Then you begin, "Oh, it chafes my shoulders; it hurts my social prestige. The people I once associated with pass me by and say, 'Ha, there she is. She's a holy-roller. There he goes, he--he... John don't come to the pool room any more.'"
"Oh, it just, oh, it humiliates me, Brother Branham."
No, you didn't get the right thing. When that mainspring is in the middle, clicking it off right, then the yokes is lined with feathers. Oh, my. No matter what the world calls you, it don't make...
