<TITLE>17. Par 64-67</TITLE>L-64 Now, with your heads bowed, I want to ask you something, sincerely. I know the message has been rude, but I'm trying to get a point over to you. I thought if I put it in a simple way, like that, that God would make it known to you, that maybe He could reveal it in a child form. You, ministers, know what I'm talking about, and you old sainted people know what I'm talking about. I'm trying to tell these that's not far along, these youth, some of the them not even in at all, have to come out of it. You want to trust God, then come on up a little higher, come up to a place to where He will catch you on His wings.

L-65 Now, if you're without Christ today, and you know that you've never been into the skies, out of the nest of your old denomination... Oh, you're having it easy, but lately there's been things happening. Would you like to come a little higher? God stirred up that nest, so He could get you out of it. Do you understand what I mean? If you'd like for God to take you from the nest of unbelief, and them doubts, and fears, that you have, would you just raise your hands to Him, and say, "God, be merciful to me." Would just raise up your hand? God bless you. God bless you. God bless you. God bless you, here. God bless you, brother, and you, brother, and you, and you, and you, sister, you, brother. Back and to the left, well, you, sister, you, brother, you, brother, you, back there.

L-66 Now, floor to the right. God bless you, you. Yes, all around. The Lord be with you. God bless you, son.
The balcony in the back, now. Raise your hands, and saying, "God, be merciful to me. All my life..." God bless you, sister dear. God bless you, brother. God bless you, back there. Yes, all up-and-down the row, everywhere. Just raise your hand. He sees it. Certainly.
"All my life, Brother Branham, I've been a church member for years, but I've always believed that there was something more than being a church member. Oh, I belong to the Assemblies. I belong to the--the Oneness. I belong to the Church of God. I belong to the Pilgrim Holiness, the Nazarene. I belong to the Baptist, the Methodist." Whatever it is, doesn't make a bit of difference, they're all just the same, just brands that you're wearing. You're a Christian at heart, not because you're in a denomination. "I've said some creeds. I was baptized a certain way. I studied theology."

L-67 I had a great teacher to tell me, here a few weeks ago, or a few months ago, "I've got enough degrees to plaster your wall with it, Brother Branham, but where's Jesus in all of it?"
You don't know Jesus by having degrees, B.A., or bachelor of art, or you don't know Him by D.D.; you know Him by receiving the Person of Christ Jesus.
