<TITLE>26. Par 90-94</TITLE>L-90 Have you all been reading the paper about this rally that's going on out here in California, how those men are talking about throwing off from one party to another... But of course, to me, I--I'm... I cast one vote; that was on Jesus Christ for my Saviour. I'm going to win. That's right. That's all right. I voted for the Lord Jesus to be my Saviour, and that's all. See? Now, I believe in voting; I believe you should do it. But this pulpit's no place to talk about that. You talk about that wherever you want to. This is the Gospel here. This is something that I know is straight and clean and true, and I know it's going to happen. That's all.
Now, when He's here... When Jesus comes to us tonight, I want you to remember that every redemptive blessing that He could ever give you, "He was--He was wounded for our transgression; He was bruised for our iniquity. The chastisement of our peace was upon Him, and with His stripes we were healed." Everybody was saved, everybody was healed, when Jesus died at Calvary. But you've got to have your own personal faith in Him to be saved or to be healed.

L-91 Now, if Jesus was here tonight, you'd say, "Lord Jesus, come down, and lay Your hands on me, and heal you."
You know what He'd say? "Child of Mine, don't--don't you believe My Word? Do you believe My Word? I was wounded for your transgressions; with My stripes you were healed."
Now, His Word should be a sufficient, but then... If you didn't believe my word, I'd probably just let it go. If I didn't believe yours, you'd let me go; but not God. If you don't believe His Word, then still He sent the Holy Spirit with gifts in the church. What's the first? Apostles, prophets, evangelists, teachers, pastors, all for the perfecting of the Church, to bring the Church to knowledge of Him. A teacher, a pastor, a evangelist, a prophet, all these things are to--are to make known...

L-92 How many Pentecostal people is here tonight? Well, you people believe in speaking with tongues. Paul said, "If there's one among you now who speaks with tongues and nobody interprets (Unless it's for edification, somebody to interpret it.) Unless it's for to edify the church, why, the people that's unlearned will come in, go away and say, 'Why, you're all crazy, all mad.' (Which "mad" means "crazy.") And say, 'Why, you're all mad.' But if one is a prophet and will prophesy and reveal the thing, then they'll have to fall down and say, 'Truly, God's with you.'" 'Cause that is God's last sign. We know that, and that's it. We're living in it today. The Lord bless you.

L-93 Now, I forgot... (Where's Billy Paul? Is he... Excuse me.) He's so little, I can't see him. (How many cards did you give out? Fifty? Did you start from 50, or... 1 to 50, all right.) We can't line all of them up at once, so let's just line them up as we can.
All right, prayer card number 1, who has it? (What's the letter? B?) B number 1? [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]... to be real, or I am a false prophet and a liar, and the Bible's wrong. The God of Christianity promised that He would meet here. "Wherever you are assembled together, I'll be with you."
He sent an Angel and told me, "Do not fear. I've sent... You're sent to pray for sick people; you'll know the very secret of their heart." I...

L-94 Now, visions started coming... First thing I can remember in life was a vision; it's always been. You're born with these gifts. You don't lay hands on one another for these kind of gifts. These gifts God sets in the church. Isn't that right, brethren? See? God sets them in the church; you're born with them. They're natural, just natural like any other thing.
Now, I'm trusting that He will grant His Presence. If He does, may His great blessings be upon us. Be reverent; believe.
You say, "What are you stalling for, Brother Branham?" I'm waiting for Him. That's exactly... If He doesn't come, I can't do nothing. But if He does anoint me, I can do it.
