<TITLE>15. Par 54-57</TITLE>L-54 Dear Lord, there's many hands that's went up here tonight. They realize they're wrong. Let them at this time, if they are sincere, which I believe they are, let them now, O God, speak to Jehovah-jireh, Who has provided a way of escape for them, that they might escape all these wicked things that's coming on the earth, go up in the rapture before this great tribulation strikes the earth.
Grant it, Lord, and may they be saved this hour, as they're believing on Christ. May tonight, as they lay on their pillow, may before they go to bed, they take that Book, that Book of the books, read from it, see that God has made the promise. Do it, Lord; save those who are savable. Thou knowest them all, and I pray this prayer for them. In Jesus' Name. Amen.

L-55 I'm just a little late. Did you give out prayer cards? I don't believe I'll call the prayer cards. I believe I'll just stand right here. I know one thing; you might have misunderstood the message tonight. You might have think I was rude talking to you, but the Holy Spirit wants you to have that. That's right. I'm just your brother, but I... And you know I'm--I'm not educated, not enough to be a minister or a preacher, but I do know Who I have believed. And I know that He's here. And I'm fully persuaded that He's able to keep every Word that He promised in this Book.
How many of you in here, who do not have prayer cards, and want to be prayed for, raise up your hands, you without prayer cards, no prayer cards. All right.
Be reverent. If the Holy Spirit... Now, someone said, and has said many time, "Brother Branham, that--somebody takes their prayer card and writes on it, and their thinking about what's on their prayer card, and he reads it mental telepathy." That's the devil. That's exactly right.

L-56 Tonight, you with the prayer card, I don't want. It's you without a prayer card that I want to talk to. I feel that in my heart right now. Now, I want you all to be real reverent. I don't say God will do it, but if He does do it, it'll be wonderful. It ought...
Here's the trouble of it church. Listen to me. I love you. You know I do that. But the thing of it is, you--you've been indocumated with so many different ideas, till you don't know what to do. Now, that's true. One miracle like that could take place among the Hottentots, down in Japan, over in some of those countries there, and thousands would pour to Christ at one time. But we, when the Lord does something, you say, "Uh huh. Oh, I guess that could be all right." It's your attitude.

L-57 Now, I'm not scolding you. But my brother, we got to live together through eternity. And I want you to know the truth; it's a message sent from Christ to His church. And I... Just this week (maybe tomorrow night starting, I don't know), I'm getting it on the Scripture here to prove to you that our time is gone. The church... you building... You pastors building million dollar churches, and Christ ready to come at any time, and missionaries on the field, dying for a little money to continue on, shows you've lost the vision.
Moses with all of his teaching, it took God forty years to get it out of him. He was better equipped in five minutes in the presence of that Angel in the burning bush, than he was of forty or eighty years of teaching he had had. Five minutes in the Presence of Christ, he took off his shoes, and respected it.
