<TITLE>28. Par 87-91</TITLE>L-87 Now, we're not condemning you. We're not condemning your religion, saying Presbyterian, or Methodist, or Baptist. That's fine; God bless the Presbyterian, Methodists, and Baptists. But you want to be a Presbyterian, Methodist, and Baptist and have the Holy Ghost. That's what you want. See? Whatever you are, you want to be Christ. You stay--stay with your church; that's all right. You'll be a light in that church to lead others.
And let me tell you, friends, you don't know what happiness is (remember) until you've crossed over the land yonder and really see what it is. Look, would I do this as a servant of Christ? I put this Bible over my heart, and say: I have... It could not enter... If that was one--the first heaven I was privileged to see, and Paul was caught up into the third heaven, what did he see?

L-88 No wonder he said, "Eye has not seen, ear has not heard, neither has it entered into the heart of man, what God has for them in store that love Him."
You say then, "Brother Branham, Paul said we must believe on the Lord Jesus Christ."
That's correct. But Paul also said, "Have you received the Holy Ghost since you believed? Have you received the Holy Ghost since you believed?"
That's the next question. Now, you want to receive the Holy Ghost, don't you? These people want to be saved; you want to receive the Holy Ghost. Now, is that all that's coming? Is that all in the building, or around the building that hasn't got the Holy Ghost? All right.

L-89 Now, if God keeps His promise... I can prove this at this minute. The Holy Spirit can stand here and call a group of people in this audience and speak to them. It's just a gift. You just have to... Just commit yourself to God and wait for it. And it begins to speak. You all... How many's seen that done? Of course you have, night after night. I tell the truth.
Now, if you are sincere and believe this with all your heart, you're going to receive the Holy Ghost. You're going to receive It. Now, don't pay no attention if somebody's around you; maybe he's doing one thing, somebody else... Don't look at them; you look at the sacrifice. You're going in to hold a conference. You're going to talk it over with God right now, hold a conference. "Lord, something told me I need the Holy Ghost. Here I am to receive It. Open up the windows, Lord; I'm ready for It."

L-90 And to you here: "Lord, I want to... I want to be Your child. I now receive Jesus as my personal Saviour." Will you do that, each one of you? Will each... Will you receive him, son, as your Saviour? You around there? You will receive Him as your Saviour, all along here? All right.
Do you want to receive the Holy Ghost? You're going in to hold a conference now, to receive the Holy Ghost? Is that's right, raise up your hand to God. "I'm going in to receive the Holy Ghost."
All that wants to love Jesus, raise up your hand. "I want to serve Him; I will receive Him right now. Nothing I can do; I accept Him as my Saviour, someone Who died for me."

L-91 Now, would I dare let you get off of here, without I was sure (as humanly sure as I could) that God... I want to meet you over yonder. I want to meet you children; I want to meet you people. I want to meet you.
Now, with all my heart, I'm going to pray. And I want each one in this building to bow your heads; I want you not to try to leave now. We're going to pray for the sick in a few minutes. And I want you to bow your heads, and I want you to pray with me that God will save these people here. I believe with heart, with all that's in me, they're already saved. I'm just going to offer God thanks. They've done accepted Jesus; they raised up their hands that they wanted... They accepted Him as Saviour.
"And he that will confess Me before men, him will I confess before My Father and the holy Angels. He that heareth My words, and believeth on Him that sent Me, has Eternal Life; shall never come to the judgment, but has passed from death unto Life." That's the Bible.
