<TITLE>14. Par 64-67</TITLE>L-64 And now look what the church has done. It's either got off on a bunch of fanaticism, and either went real starchy and stiff and take none of it. But, brother, there's a middle of the road where the real true Gospel is preached and the--the real true Bible signs and wonders following; a sweet Holy Spirit leads that church. That's the kind of church to go to, an intelligent church, preaching the Word, standing on the Word, with a real full Gospel sermon, real Spirit of God; everything in the Spirit, everything is decent, everybody in order, everything in love; that's the kind of a church we want. How many wants to belong to that church? Raise your hands. Why, sure, we all do. Well, God wants us to. What made the difference? We just started getting a little arrogant and different in our churches; Dove flew away.

L-65 Now, is there another group in here who did not raise their hand, who want to be remembered just now? Oh, I... You notice I stopped real quick tonight. Something just said, "Stop. There's some sick people to be prayed for." See? And I want to make my altar call. Would there be another... God bless you, lady. God bless you up there. That's good.
The balconies to my left over here, any more along through there? God bless you. That's fine. God sees your hand. Sure He does. To the balcony to the right, I see your hands up there. God bless you. Certainly. That's right. The Lord be with you and bless you.
Now, to the audience on the bottom floor, right here in the middle in the--the regular arena. Would you raise your hands again, saying,"God, be merciful to me. I want that kind of a meek, humble Spirit"? God bless you.
Now, to the little side balcony on my left, would you raise your hands? God bless you. That's right. God bless you to the side balcony to my right. God bless you. That's good. The Lord be with you.

L-66 Now, let's go to prayer. Now, as we bow our heads in prayer, remember that Dove setting right out there in front of you. He just wants to come back. "How can I do it, Brother Branham?" Just be a lamb. Just be a lamb. Just say, "God, I--I'm sorry I did all that I did. Tonight I'm coming back. I'm going to be a lamb from tonight on."

L-67 Now, heavenly Father, You see their hands, and I'm so glad that--for this city of Oakland, to see the--the contamination of the great masses of things has never struck this city yet, and some of the things that's happened. Or at least, Lord, You still got children that's hungering and thirsting. I thank Thee for them. And I pray that You'll bless them, Lord, just abundantly, and give to them the deep desire of their heart.
Move, Holy Spirit, fly right down on every one of them hearts just now. And may way down deep in their soul, not some outward emotion, but way down deep in the soul, they can feel just a sweet, humble, soothing something coming over them, knowing that that's God coming back, as they're changing that old nature that they did have and becoming a lamb. The Holy Spirit's coming right in like a Dove to abide there, just abide. And may from this hour on, may they live godly, humble Christian lives. May You lead them from victory unto victory until the day that You're finished with us on earth and then receive us in glory. For we ask it in Christ's Name. Amen.
