<TITLE>30. Par 202-211</TITLE>L-202 Mr. King, how many remembers R. A. King used to come here, was down here? He said... I was building a boat up there one time. He said, "Now, Brother Branham, you build that boat according to your own specifications." Said, "I was building..." Or some man was building a boat one time, and a guy come along, said, "You ought to cut these gunnels this way." Well, he tried it that way.
Another one said, "Oh, you ought to do it this way, everything, the--the ribs and everything; the boat should be this a-way, and the bow should be this way, and the head and the stern, and the--the rudder." And he said it was the awfullest looking thing he ever seen when he got done. Said he just took the boat and packed it back in the backyard and started out with his saws, cutting another one. Said, somebody come by and said, "Say, this is the way you ought build it."
Said, "That one was built by other's instructions is out in the backyard. I'm building this one according to the way I think it ought to be built." That's right.

L-206 Now, God if He wants me to do anything, He'll tell me what to do. If you think that I'm wrong in what I'm doing or anything like that, you pray for me that God will straighten me out. See? 'Cause I can't listen to too many.
Now, you here maybe at the church, you just got to listen to maybe one or two people, but here I go into the tens of thousands. How can I do it? Then I said, "Before I make any man an answer I'm going to set down and study over it right, see which way the Holy Ghost leads, then I'm going to tell him or tell her whatever it is; and that's my decision; I'll stick by it." That's right. Stay right there.

L-208 Now, interviews are fixed. Anybody that wants to see me, perfectly all right. If you'll call BUtler 2-1519, just look in the telephone directory and find William Branham, BUtler 2-1519, arrangements will be made for interviews. [Telephone number has been changed. Call Branham Tabernacle--Ed.] And it'll be put down just exactly the time and the place to do. Now, I can meet every person, be with them, help them with their problems and things, but I can't just go and stay a day with one, and four or five hours with this one, and next day miss the whole thing. We have so much time. We ask them what they want and how much time, and bring it right down. And we see every person. We got that...
And the man that answers the phone will be Mr. Mercier here or Mr. Goad setting right there. And they'll fix that right on the book exactly for the interviews, and I'll see every person.
If it's a special case, if it's during time for the prayer service now for the sick, bring your sick and afflicted in and let them listen a night or two.

L-211 Now, we'll pray for them emergency cases, but then after about a couple of nights, I want to start in on my new ministry. And I want to take them back here in this room, because you know the vision. How many remembers the vision (Sure you do.) of the little tent in the room.
Now, I'm going to take Meda in with me on the first night on account of sending women in. And then if it--see how it works just with her in there. And then, if it don't work right that way, then I'll turn around and send two women in at a time, bring two women at one time, 'cause they're coming into a place where there's just a man. See? And that... 'Course now we got a clean minds, but the devil don't have it out there (You see?), so--what he'd think about it (See?) and what the world say. But it's a ministry that I can't let be known to the public. No one will ever duplicate this. You see? No, sir. No, I know it's right on the merge now. I can just, look like, just reach out there and take ahold of it; it's laying right there.
