<TITLE>09. Par 35-38</TITLE>L-35 Listen, friends, you might think you're all right now, but in the Presence of that Light, it'll be different. It'll certainly be different. You might be a good church member; you might dress good; you might help the poor. That might be all right, but oh, in the Presence of that Light, that white throne judgment...
And then the voice said, "Daniel Greenfield, was you perfect in your life?"
"Oh," he said, "no, Lord, I wasn't perfect." And said, "He was listening for a great blast to come from the--somewhere, and say, 'Then depart from Me.'" Said, "His bones begin to come unjointed, as it were, and he was trembling, knowing that he would sink into a devil's hell in a few minutes, to be there for eternity."
And said, "While he was thinking that, and listening for the voice." He said, "I heard a voice behind me, was the sweetest voice I ever heard in all my life." He said, "It was sweeter than any mother's voice, that I ever heard." And said, "When I turned, I seen the sweetest face, I ever saw." And said, "He put His arm around me, and He said, 'Father, that's true; Daniel Greenfield wasn't perfect in his life, but there's one thing he did: when My glory was made known, Daniel Greenfield stood for Me on earth. Now, I'll stand for him up here.'"

L-36 Oh, God, let that be my plea tonight. Let me stand for Him like the queen of Sheba did in the face of critics. Let me take my position and stand for Him, for on that day, no merit will I have, I'll trust in His alone.
If you were going tonight, who would stand for you there? Let us think of that just a moment while we bow our heads.

L-37 Sinner friend, would Jesus stand for you tonight? Backslider, you church member, that's never received God's Gift, the Holy Ghost, and you're ashamed of it, because your church don't teach it. "If you're ashamed of Me before man, him will I be ashamed before My Father and the holy Angels." Don't you never try to stand by the teachings of a mortal man. Don't you never try to stand with that spirit that you have, it's condemned from the garden of Eden. It's not a face lifting the church needs, it needs a birth. You must be born again. And if you haven't received that blessing of being borned again, and know that you've passed from death unto Life, I wonder if you'll just--with your heads bowed--if you'd just raise your hand and say, "Christ, by this, I promise by Your grace, I'll stand for you from this night, henceforth."
Would you raise your hand, anywhere in the building. God bless you, lady. God bless you. God bless you, sir. God bless you, back there. Up in the balcony, along the rows back there in the bleachers. Someone up there, just raise your hand. Say, "Brother Branham, pray for me."

L-38 We have to cut this short now, because it's time to start the prayer line, but I'd just like to see if someone would raise your hand, some more rather, and say, "I haven't lived the right life." God bless you, sir.
"I know that I've--I've seen a many time I took down, when I ought to have stood for Jesus. I took the place of the Pharisee, a religious person one day said, "Take away this man, and give us Barabbas." The Man Who had done nothing but fill the country with love, and signs, and miracles, and wonders... "But away with Him."
"When they voted for this revival, I actually put my hand against it, but now I'm going to change it. I'm going to raise my hand to God, and say, 'Be merciful to me.'"
God bless those little fellows up there, ten, twelve year old children, just at the turning spot. All right. Someone else? Just raise your hand, say, "Remember me, Brother Branham."
