<TITLE>10. Par 187-194</TITLE>L-187   Heavenly Father, we thank Thee tonight for the Word. "For faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word." We thank Thee for Jesus. And as we see this great day that we're living in, how that signs and wonders, how we let these things slip by. God, open the eyes of the people in this tabernacle, tonight, that they might see and understand that we're in the last hours. The time is fleeting. We haven't got much longer to be here, and we'll have to see Jesus. And we'll have to be counted traitors, for there's no excuse this morning. When you gave that great, mighty vision, of that man coming here, from way in the country yonder; and to see him, beyond a shadow of doubt, rise from that wheel chair, receive his sight. His legs become strong, down through the building, rejoicing and praising God. It shows that God is still able of these stones to rise children to Abraham. To see the visions, like Jesus said, "I do nothing till the Father shows Me. I can do nothing."

L-188 The blind man followed Him, and said, "Have mercy on us."

L-189 He said, touched their eyes and said, "According to your faith, be it unto you."

L-190 Now, Lord, we see Jesus. We don't see all things. We see we still take the sainted of us to the grave, and walk over each other's grave. But we see Jesus, who made the promise. We see Him with us. Not Jesus in the grave, not Jesus two thousand years ago; but Jesus tonight, that's with us. We see Him manifested in all of His power, and signs, and wonders.

L-191 God, may we never neglect this great Salvation. But may we embrace It, and accept It, and be reverent, and live by It until the day that Jesus comes to take us Home. Grant it, Lord. We ask it in His Name.

L-192   And while we have our heads bowed, I wonder if there's a person in the building tonight, under the Divine Presence of the Holy Spirit, would say, "Brother Branham, I am convinced that I'm wrong. I'm convinced that I'm wrong. God has revealed to me my sins. And I know that I'm wrong. I'll raise my hand to Him and ask for mercy, tonight. God, be merciful to me. I'm wrong." Would you do that?

L-193 While we wait just a moment, if there's a person here that wants to, there's a baptizing going to take place just in a moment. And if you're a sinner, I would repent. How can you reject such matchless love of One who died? The holy God of Heaven became a sinful Man; not because He sinned, but because He had your sins, and bare them there to Calvary. And you won't accept that pardoning? Won't you do it tonight? While we have our heads bowed, someone say, "Remember me, Brother Branham. I raise my hands to Christ, and say, 'Be merciful to me. I, I am wrong, and I want to be reconciled to God.'" Would you raise your hand?
All right, if everyone is Christians, then, let us pray.

L-194   Father, we thank Thee tonight, that everyone in here are Christians, that they have witnessed the same by remaining silent, that their sins are all under the Blood. And I'm so grateful for that. Bless them, Lord. Oh, I'm so glad that they have found reconciliation through the offering of the Blood, by hearing the Word. The washing of the water, by the Word, It cleanses us. It brings us to greatest place, where--where the sinner, with his vile darkness, is made white as snow. The scarlet stains of sin has been washed away, and we are new creatures in Christ. How we thank that, Thee, for this.
Now the baptismal service comes up. I understand that this young lady, tonight, is to be baptized down here, in the Name of her Lord.
