<TITLE>05. Par 13-15</TITLE>L-13 Then we find also this unrest. Everything seems to be at a nervous co--ure--unrest, it's... The time has run out, the east and west has met one another, come forward from the east until the west has come and met it.
Now, the Bible said in my Scripture reading, there would be a day with the Lord that would not be called neither day nor night. It'd be a dismal day, just enough light to see how to get around. That's the day that we've lived in since the beginning. The sun rises in the east and sets in the west. Not a different sun, the same sun that rises in the east, sets in the west, and civilization has traveled with the sun.
And now, India was--or not India, but China was the oldest civilization, our first that we have record of. Now, we're back here to the west coast where the east and west has met. Civilization has traveled on with it. And during the time in the east when the Holy Spirit was poured out first was on the eastern people. Now, I'm quoting this again so you won't forget it. They had the first light. The s-u-n shines in the east first, and the S-o-n shined in the east first on the eastern people.
Now, we've had a dismal day. We've had enough light to walk in, enough to believe on the Lord Jesus and be saved. We formed churches, great Lutheran church, the Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian; all those great churches has come up during this time, but we've never had exactly a--a promise and a--a latter rain as we were prophesied to have. In the last days there would be a latter rain, and the former and latter rain would be together. Now, the first rain was in the east, the latter rain is in the west. And in the latter rain, both former and latter rain will be together.

L-14 And now, the sun has come across giving a dismal light because of the denseness of the faith of people. Jesus was the Son of God, as we was talking today. He was the Son of God as much as He was a man. At thirty years... We have no record of Him doing anything till He was thirty years old. When He was baptized in Jordan by John, then the Holy Ghost came upon Him without measure. In Him dwelled the Fullness of the Godhead bodily. He was Emmanuel. God was in Him. Why was God in Him? Because He was sinless born and because that He had a way that He could yield Hisself to God, and in Him dwelt all of God.
Now, you and I could have no more God in us than what we can yield ourself. As much as we abide... As much Bill Branham as I can get out of the way, God will come in. But as long as William Branham's in there, then God has no way of getting in. And the same with you. It's getting ourself out of the way, not looking the way we think, not doing the way that we--we think, but letting Him do our thinking. Let Him do our looking, listening to the Holy Spirit.

L-15 Now, it's come across, and it's in the evening time. Now, the Bible promised us that in the evening time it would be light. What kind of a light? The same light that shines in the east shines in the west. The same light shines in the morning, shines in the evening. Now, we've come all the way across this, and in the evening time the shadows are falling. And we've had light.
Now, I want you to notice, oh, in the hour of this watchman had warned and had told the people of the oncoming judgment, but they laughed at him and made fun of him. And then we see in the Scriptures, that when a city was built, the first thing was built was the protection of that city, which was the wall. And then to be sure that the city was safeguarded, they had a tower built way high on the wall, and a watchman was in that tower day and night. Twenty-four hours around he watched east, north, west, and south. Because he's higher than the rest of the people he can see off. His duty is to warn the people when he could see oncoming judgment, armies approaching, spies slipping up, anything coming on. No matter what it was, he reported it back to the city if he was a good watchman.
