<TITLE>01. Par 1-5</TITLE>58-0112A, His Wonders To Perform, Lane Tech High School, Chicago, IL, 85 min
L-1 Thank you, Brother Joseph. Let's bow our heads just a moment for prayer.
Lord, we are grateful to Thee indeed, for this grand privilege that we have of coming to Thee this afternoon, calling Thee our Father, knowing that in Thy Word that it is promised by Thy Son, if we would ask anything to the Father in His Name, it would be granted unto us. We would ask for mercy then, Lord, forgiveness of our sins and our trespasses; asking healing for the sick, joy for those who are sad, hope for those who are hopeless. Grant it, Father. We ask it in Jesus' Name. Amen.

L-2 You may be seated. [Someone speaks to Brother Branham--Ed.] That's all right. I am just a bit disappointed myself of Brother Osborn not being in this afternoon, but somehow he felt that he had to hurry back on a call back to--to Tulsa, Oklahoma. And I was looking forward, just as you are, for the--for Brother Osborn. And it was just told me and I had to rush right over and take his place. And oh, I couldn't take his place, but I'll come over to speak in his stead. So we are very grateful for the--the visit that we had with our precious brother last evening.

L-3 And I was so happy to get to see the--the movie screen show because of--it gives some kind of an idea to the people what you face when you hit those countries. Now, that was--that was very sickening to look at. But if you'll take my word, that's minor, Africa is, to India. So you know what we have to confront.
And when a person is going in the fields, not just going to visit, but going into the fields as a missionary, you don't know what they have to put up with and face. Now, round in the big cities you don't see that. You have to go back into the jungle where they live.

L-4 And when I was over this last time, it almost made me discouraged to see all the missionaries just around the city and living in the fine hotels with nice big automobiles, and going out to the compound once in a while and watch the natives dance, and pass out some tracts. That's not the David Livingston missionary. No, sir. We want to get back into there where the heathen worship is still in existence and there preach the unsearchable riches of Christ.
And Brother Osborn is one of those kind. He goes right into the field and preaches Christ to those people who have never heard the Name of the Lord Jesus ever spoke. So I'm happy that you got to see some--have some conception now, of what it is to hit the mission fields, and--for the Lord Jesus.

L-5 Now, we're just a little late and I--when I heard I was going to have to speak in his place I felt myself go right down and I thought, "Oh, my." The audience watching for Brother Osborn to come in and here I--I had to come out. And then with nothing in my mind, so I just thought of a Scripture that I would like to read to you and comment on it a few moments.
And the boys will be giving out the prayer cards, I heard Brother Joseph say, at six o'clock. And then tonight we are expecting the exceedingly abundantly tonight in the closing service.
