<TITLE>21. Par -</TITLE>L-29-4 So Abraham was the called out. And this Angel that set up there with Abraham, and after the Angel left, he called Him, Lord, Elohim.
How many knows that Elohim was the great Jehovah God? Sure. The Lord God... And He said, with His back turned to the tent (Watch what He said to Abraham. Now, He's a stranger, never been there before.) He said, "Abraham, where is your wife, Sarah?" How did He know that he had a wife, and how did He know her name was Sarah?
Now, the Bible said that Abraham told Him that she was in the tent behind Him--in the tent behind Him. He said, "Abraham, I'm going to visit you according to the time of life, that I promised you this child; I'm going to give it to you." And Sarah, not out loud, but laughed within herself. And the Angel with His back to the tent said, "Why did Sarah laugh?" See that? Jesus said that would take place amongst the Gentiles just before the end time: The Messiah would drop down in the form of the Holy Ghost.

L-30-2 What was the first thing the Messiah started doing when He was baptized at Jordan with the Holy Ghost? What did He do? Started healing the sick. What was His last sign, and His sign before He turned from them? That sign right there. What did the Pentecostal revival bring? Healing the sick, miracles and signs. What is the last thing? Here it is.
How many out there are sick and doesn't have a prayer card? Raise up your hand. Have faith and believe.
Somebody says, "What about it. Brother Branham?" That Spirit of God, that One Who makes the promise cannot fail with the promise.

L-30-5 You without prayer cards... I turn my back to you. You pray. And if God be God, if His answer is true, and I've told you the truth through these weeks that this is the sign of His close appearing...
Any civilized normal mind knows that we're at the end of something. Civilization can't stand any longer; she's just weaving and shaking. What's it waiting for? It's--it's way past due, as it was in the days of Noah: long-suffering. It's lapped overtime for the elects' sake, way past; but God's waiting to get His church in order. He's waiting on you and I. May He grant the blessings. You pray.

L-30-7 When a woman touched the hem of His garment... Some of you women out there now. Let this be like the Bible story. Some of you women that believe now, and believe that you got faith enough to believe God, believe that whatever God has said is true. And there was a little woman touched the border of His garment; and when she touched His garment, He turned around and said, "Who touched Me? Who touched Me?"
And they all denied it, said, "Well, everybody's touching You." Peter rebuked Him, said, "Everybody's touching You. Why did You say...?... like that?"
He said, "But I perceive that I have gotten weak." (That's the right translation.) "Virtue's gone out of Me." And "virtue" is "strength." How many knows that? "Virtue's gone from Me."
And He looked around over the crowd till He found the little woman, and He told her that her blood issue had stopped, because her faith had made her well. Is that right? The Bible said that He's right now a High Priest that can be touched by the feeling of our infirmities. Do you new--newcomers believe that?
