<TITLE>03. Par 12-18</TITLE>L-12 [Brother Roy Slaughter, in the congregation says, "Brother Branham, I'd just like to say one word, if it'd be all right?"--Ed.]
Yes, go ahead.
["You know when you was out there, you remember that--that I called you. Our girl was sick. And you called your wife, and tell her... Well, at first, I called you, and left a message, 'Already, five doctors said there had been no hope with medical authorities."]
Yes.
["And when you come in, you said, 'There's a call from Brother Slaughter, will you take it?' Said, 'That's one of the best firends I've got,' or something like that."]
Yes, sir.
["And you went and prayed. you went and called your wife, and you said to call us and tell them, 'The girl will be all right.' And she didn't know it was sick, you see."]
Yes.
["And--and so, she went next day, and she was in the hospital. The doctors come in. They said they been... 'Something has took--something has took... was happened.' She says, 'Yes.' And they begin to kind of go over, maybe, of what they had done it. She said, 'No.' Said, 'It was the prayers of Brother Branham.'"]
Yes, I remember that.
["She had a fever, that they didn't know what was the matter, those five doctors, so it had no time. But when I came, I came out of the field, to call you; and the wife was sending a child to me to call you. She was..."]
Yes.
["... come out there, 'To call Brother Branham.' So, was just a coincidence, we met in the field. Than when I called you, then you had prayer. And you called back, and you said, 'Tell, that girl is all right.' And she is all right...?..."]
Yes.

L-13 Honey, I guess you remember that, don't you, when we was in St. Louis in the--in the meeting, that Brother Slaughter's little girl took real sick. And we was at the old Belcher Bath Hotel. I can remember that just so well. And we took the message and went before the Lord, and He showed the vision, said. And I called Brother Slaughter and them, called them and said, "Tell them, 'THUS SAITH THE LORD. Don't worry, she'll live.'" And she did. The Lord was so good.

L-14 Been lots of things happen since then, but He is still the same Lord Jesus. Isn't it so marvelous. I just can't think of anything better than to know that--that if I was going to inherit every penny of money the world owned, and going to live for a thousand years here on earth, I'd rather know just what I have right now: Eternal Life. The everlasting life will end after a bit. Eternal Life has no end, because It had no beginning, and so we're grateful for that.

L-15 Brother Neville has just read some Scriptures, that he read for me, out of the Book of St. John. And there was one Scripture there, the 21st verse, I'd like to call your attention to it just for a moment. Jesus, in His prayer, prayed this.
That they all may be one; as thou, Father, are in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.
And if I should call it a text, I'd like to say this: "The Unity Of One God In The One Church."

L-17 You know, God has made man to--to achieve; that's what man was made for. And all down through life he has tried to achieve something. And his achievements, the reason he tries that, is because he was so designed to do so. God made him that way. But the trouble of it is, in his achievement he tries to do something within himself. And there's where he makes his mistake and he gets in trouble.

L-18 Now, in the beginning, Genesis, which is the seed chapter of the Bible, we find in there that when God made a man, He made him in the way that He knew that he was to be. And he could never be any greater design than what he is. When He begin to make life, He made it from the lowest life, which is, more or less, the polliwog, the frog; and on to the highest life is man, which is in the image of God.
