<TITLE>03. Par 9-13</TITLE>L-9 O Lord, grant this blessing to us tonight. And when we leave from this place, may we go like those who came from Emmaus, after they'd walked all day with Jesus. He had talked to them after His resurrection, that first beautiful Easter morning, yet they did not recognize Him. And when He got them inside in the evening time, in the twilight, perhaps about this time, when the doors were closed, He did something. And they recognized that no other man did it that way but Him. And their eyes were opened, and they knew that it was Him, and He had raised from the dead. Oh, their hearts leaping for joy, they run back to meet the rest of their party, and saying, "Truly, the Lord has risen."
Lord, will You do something tonight for us; just like You did it before Your crucifixion, that this company might know that You ever remain God? And when we go to our different homes, may we say like those as they went, "Did not our hearts burn within us, as He talked to us along the way." For we ask it in His' Name. Amen.

L-10 Now tonight, our company is small, and just a little get acquainted. And now, maybe tomorrow night, the Lord willing, I'd like to maybe preach just a little to you or speak to you from the Word.
Tonight, just a little opening program that we use along the road to introduce the ministry, that we're trying to represent of our Lord. Just a little opening message, and our theme will be, that's found in Hebrews 13:8: Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today, and forever. And over in Saint John 12:20, we read this for a context:
And there were certain Greeks among them that came up to worship at the feast:
The same came therefore to Philip, which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sirs, we would see Jesus.
And that's what I want to speak on: We Would See Jesus. Now, if the Scripture says that He is the same yesterday, today, and forever...

L-11 Now, to me, this Bible is either the Truth or it is not the Truth. If it is God's Word, then it's Truth. If it isn't Truth, then it isn't God's Word, 'cause God would never have anything to do with anything but what was absolutely, unadulterated Truth. We believe that. I'm sure you do to. It must be the Truth.
So let us look now into the Scriptures. And now, I believe that this is the Word. My faith is built on this. Many time have I held the Koran in one hand, the Bible in the other one, before a half a million Mohammedans and say, "One of them's got to be right, and one of them's got to be wrong."

L-12 Now, if Mohammed's a living, let him speak. If Jesus a living, let Him speak, and you decide. Don't never be afraid to put any Divine promise of God to action. And remember, don't never forget this quotation: "That the right mental attitude towards any Divine promise in this Bible will bring it to pass." Just remember that. The right mental attitude toward any Divine promise that's written in this Bible will bring it to pass. So now, just keep that on your mind. If God made a promise, and you'll take the right attitude towards that promise, God will fulfill everything that He's promised. I know that to be true. And I've seen sarcomas cancer healed with that, because people believe that it was the Truth.

L-13 Now, when they go to speak of Divine healing, sometimes they say, "Brother Branham's a Divine healer." That's wrong. There's no such a thing as a man being a Divine healer, never was and never will be. Jesus was not a Divine Healer; He said He wasn't. "It's not Me that doeth the works, it's My Father that dwelleth in Me, He doeth the works." It's always been God.
In Psalms 103:3, it said, "He is the Lord that forgives all of our iniquity and heals all of our diseases."
