<TITLE>18. Par 60-62</TITLE>L-60 Would you raise your hand and say, "Christ, make me that kind of Christian this morning?"
God bless you. God bless you. God bless you, lady. God bless you. God bless you, brother. God bless you, sister. "Make me that kind of a Christian this morning. I want to be like Jesus. I want all the roots of bitterness taken out of my heart."
Now, there's been a number of you raise your hand. Now, right where you are, if you will with all your heart, now not--not just imagine, but believe that Jesus Christ, God's Son, is standing right by you and will take that old bitterness away from you, that will make you what you long to be, He will do it right where you're... He will perform the operation in your hospital, if you'll just let Him do it.
 For all things are possible, only believe.
 Only believe, only believe,
 All things are possible, only believe;
 Only believe...
Just keep praying," Lord..." Remember, child, it's your soul. You may not be in another service, all... this may be the last one. Let God do it right now.

L-61 Say, "Brother Branham, should I come up to the altar?"
If you want to. Sure. If you don't want to, stay right where you are. You just believe it. "He that heareth My Words, believeth on Him that sent Me, has Everlasting Life and shall never come into judgment, but's past from death to Life." That's it.
If you'd like to come to the altar and pray, it's open. If you want to stay where you're at and pray, it's your soul. It's you're the one. The time is at hand, brother.
The Church is just about made up. The old stream's muddy. We've seined, and fished, and throwed these old lead sinkers out there, until the whole thing's become muddy. Too many hogs in the wallow. She's muddy. As me as a minister, I just feel this, that if God's going to do it, it's going to have to take God. I can't. So it's up to you. There's the Word; there's the truth. You see It unfolding right here before you.
The end is at hand. Jesus may come at any time. It may be that there may not even be any United States time the sun goes down tonight. They can send five thousand atomic bombs at one time. There wouldn't even be one living creature on the earth in another hour from now. If you want, now it's up to you. Think of it now, while we pray.

L-62 Blessed heavenly Father, at the closing of this Word, as I turn the pages back, the message is sealed up now. The coming of the Lord is drawing nigh. Several in the building this morning raised up their hands and said by that, "I want to become a Christian. I want to be a real, real borned again servant of God."
And Lord, maybe many years You've dealt with their hearts. You--You told them that. You're grace is still reached out to them; they're not altogether gone yet. Some has done gone to a place; they have no more desire. Year ago, they used to put up their hand and say, "Well, I'd like to be a Christian." Now, it's done too far. They don't feel it no more now, just about all over.
And that seems to be the general run of the nation: Hearing great evangelists, as they've crossed the nations, they've sent out feelers. They've done everything. They organized groups. They visit homes to those who had raised their hands and try. Where thousands and thousands made starts, two or three would hold on.
Well, it's over, Lord. It's over, God. We are gone. O Father, I know that You said that, "All that--that come to Christ, You'd keep." And I believe that with all my heart. And I believe, Lord, that You will keep those whose hearts and minds are stayed on You.
