<TITLE>18. Par 54-55</TITLE>L-54 Is this the first woman? All right, now, I'm asking your undivided attention for just a few minutes. Now, don't move around; set real still. Be reverent. Now, here, all the preaching that I have done and all the rest, this Bible declares Him to be the same today as He was then. Now, if that isn't so, then what good's that Bible? If it is so, let's embrace it and die with it, for He's still God. If He is God, He keeps His promise. If He doesn't keep His promise, He isn't God. So I know He's God. Now, here's where I stand, by a Divine gift to represent Him. To represent Him, not represent myself, I have nothing to do into it.
If you didn't believe what I was saying, I could stand here hour after hour and nothing would take place. It's you doing that, it's not me. It's your own faith. Why do you bring people up here? Well, this way I've got a person singled out to me. Last night there was a great group, hundreds come to Christ. Then there's such a blast in the meeting; visions begin to break over the meeting before it ever started. See? But here tonight... I've combed through that crowd last night; we didn't get too many tonight. So being just a little weary, I called a prayer line to get person standing here so the anointing could get started first, then it'll go out through there. See? First it'll fly past one right on the platform, go way back yonder up in the balconies and get it. How many seen that done? Sure. God, You just move right out from the people. People standing here on the platform never get healed. Them out there get healed. Depends on what you believe.

L-55 I'm getting the woman here. I've never seen this woman. She might be a hypocrite; she might be an infidel; she might be a deceiver. I don't know who she is. She might be a saint; I don't know. But this is a picture just like it was at the well, a woman and a man meeting for their first time. I suppose this is our first time meeting, is that right?
Now, if the Lord Jesus remains the same yesterday, today, and forever, if He stood here with this suit on that He give me down in Africa... And if He was standing here with this suit on, and the woman said, "I'm sick. Will You heal me, Lord?" I want to ask you now (be careful), could He heal her? No, sir. He can't do what He's already done. See? He's already did it. She'd say, "I'm a sinner; save me."
He said, "I've already did it; you want to accept it?" Is that right? When you accept Him as your personal Saviour, as emancipator...
Now, if I said to the woman, as God's servant, "Lady, you're sick. I lay my hands on you; you're going to get well." That could be true. She could wonder about that.
She'd say, "Yes, I believe Brother Branham might be a good man. But that was Brother Branham." But now, what if something happens here, and goes back in her life, and brings her cause out here that I don't know and tells it? Then that takes more than Brother Branham. Is that right? It takes a supernatural Being.
The Pharisees said, "It's Beelzebub."
The real believers said, "He's the Son of God." Would you believe it was the Son of God? The Lord bless you.
Now, in the Name of Jesus Christ I take every spirit in here under my control for the glory of God. Be reverent.
