<TITLE>07. Par 29-34</TITLE>L-29 But one day when a certain buyer came by a great plantation, he noticed one young man. Oh, you didn't have to whip him. His chest was out; his chin was out. He'd walked right along with a smile on his face. He'd done every bit of work that he seen to be done. The buyer said to the slave owner, "I want to buy that slave."
But the buyer said... "He's not for sale."
"Well, what makes him so much different from the others. Perhaps he's the boss of the others?"

L-30 The slave owner said, "No, he's just a slave."
Said, "Maybe you feed him better than you do the others is what makes him act like that."
Said, "No, he eats out in the galley with the rest of them."
Said, "Well, what makes him so much different from the rest of them?"
And the owner said, "I wondered that myself for a long time, but I found out. I find out that over in the homeland, his father is the king of the tribe. And though he's an alien, and he's away from his father, and he's away from his tribe, and loved ones, he conducts himself as a king's son. He knows that he's an alien, but he's the son of a king. Hallelujah.

L-31 What kind of people ought we to be? How should we conduct ourselves? We are sons and daughters of a King, not a king, but the King: Jesus Christ the Son of the living God Who is the King of kings.
Let us pray. Our heavenly Father, it is with humble hearts that we embrace Thy Word. And we give to Thee the very adoration of our innermost being, because Thou has redeemed us, and we are not redeemed by corruptible things as money. We are redeemed by the precious Blood of God, Who has purchased us through His only begotten Son the Lord Jesus.
And I believe tonight that He is God's only begotten Son, that He died for the propitiation of our sins. "And He was wounded for our transgressions; He was bruised for our iniquity; and the chastisement of our peace was upon Him; and with His stripes we are healed." I embrace that tonight and say, "He is the virgin born Son of God."

L-32 Father dear, if there is people here who has been deceived by just thinking they could join church, or could hide around some little doctrine and be saved, oh, may they hear the poet say,
Oh, precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow;
No other fount I know,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
Grant tonight that sinners may come and be saved through the shed Blood of Jesus Christ, God's only virgin born Son. We pray in His Name.

L-33 And while we have our heads bowed, I wonder tonight. No one here would surely have the audacity to be as Pilate, would try to push back the Message, oh, say at another time. I believe you're better mental balanced than that. Would you have the courage, not to me, I'm just a man, but to God would you raise your hand up (while everyone in prayer), if you would raise your hand and say, "God, this is my witness to You, not to Brother Branham, or no one else, but this is my witness to You that I believe that Jesus is Your Son. He died for my sins, and I now confess all of my iniquity and sin. And by raising my hand, I'm saying this: 'I believe on Him for the remission of my sin.'"?

L-34 Put up your hand will you do it before God? We're going to have just a short prayer. God bless you, son. God bless you, sir. All right, on the bottom floor, put your... God bless you, sir. God bless you, lady. God bless you, mister. God bless you. God bless you, little girl. Someone else raise your hand on the bottom floor and say, "By this God, I mean, I surrender everything."
Remember, friend, in ten million years from tonight you'll be somewhere. God bless you, little boy. Up in the balcony to my left, someone say, "By this I put up my hand." God bless you, little boy. God bless you, lady. "I put up my hand and say, 'God, receive me as a penitent sinner.'" I now raise my hand and say, 'I haven't lived right or true to You, and from this night on, by Your help I'll do it.'"
