<TITLE>12. Par 40-42</TITLE>L-40 I read an article here, not long ago. I got it in my scrap book, where that the American preacher, they taken a analysis of who he believed in the literal coming of the Lord Jesus. And seventy-eight percent of the American preachers, denied the literal return of the Lord Jesus. Babylon... And there was more than that denied the virgin birth. How do you expect to build the church of the living God upon such ruins and chars of Sodom as that? It'll never work then. "Well, what's you so hard about, Brother Branham?"
I come here for one purpose, to lay a foundation for a revival, until you get back to the old hewing line, you'll never have revival. The church has got to be cleaned out and started over again upon a foundation of Christ, the Solid Rock. All other grounds of denominations is sinking sands that'll pass. But I'm afraid we're almost too late. It's in the sky.

L-41 What did Daniel say? What do you think that holy prophet said when he stood before the king? Say... He said, "I'll tell you what I'll do, Daniel. I understand that you can interpretate; that you can interpret strange languages. And again, that you can have revelations and visions. Daniel, if you'll just come here hold a revival for us, we'll give you all the money you want." Some modern Daniel would've fell for that right quick.
But Daniel said, "Keep your gifts to you." There's a man of God. "You're not making me no bishop over these guys. I don't want no bishop or doctor's degree. I want to remain Daniel in the will of the Lord.
And if a lot of you preachers would quit trying to put so emphasis on that doctor, and bishops, and presbyter, and things like that and get back to be a brother and a servant of Christ, bring His Church together... He said it. Feathers in hats... What you need's Spirit in the heart.

L-42 And there they were, and here we are. The handwriting's on the wall. Daniel said, "You ought to have knowed better than this, king. Your father, Nebuchadnezzar, had that kind of a spirit on him, and you know what God did for him." Said, "Besides all of this, your days are numbered."
Right at that same time, there they thought they were secure, but all the best scientists, the best soldiers, the best footmen, the best entertained... The Medes and Persians, an ungodly nation, many miles away, historians tell us, had bypassed the river Euphrates. They couldn't get over the walls. Certainly not. They couldn't get into them, but they were ready for them. And an ungodly nation had cut down a ditch and bypassed the river Euphrates down through mountains, and set this little gap in two, and bypassed the river. And right while them women in them soldiers arms... And when they got their drunken condition, put all their ungodly sexy clothes on... And the men of Babylon, and a modern Hollywood Elvis Presleys, and all the rock and rolls, right in the midst of all that, the supernatural wrote on the wall.
What happened? At that very hour the Medes and Persians had done chopped down the guards at the gate, coming under the walls where the river run, coming and was on the steps. All that blarey-eyed women, and men so drunk they could hardly hold one another up... And an hour from then, them women was ravished publicly, right out on the street with a men and killed, and busted their heads, and killed their children, and just a massacre.
