<TITLE>18. Par 67-70</TITLE>L-67 Jesus said, "When the deaf and dumb spirit went out of the man (deaf and dumb spirit), he could speak." See? Spirit. That poor brother might have went to a good doctor and he looked him over. He said, "Yes, sir. I find it. You got a dead nerve in your ear and that's what makes you deaf. Now, why wasn't he dead nerved all over. See? It's like an unseen force gripping him. Something the doctor can work on. He can see with his--with his hands. He's got two senses that he works with. That's what he can see with his eyes, what he can feel with his hands. See, taste, feel, smell and hear is the five senses of the body.
Now, if he could see it, if he could work on it, but see this thing has got that nerve killed he can't see it. Like a transparent band or something. Now, it's a deaf spirit. Take that off of there, nature will actually revolve itself.
Just like a stalk of corn, this flower growing up. If it's laid on a clod and twisted over just remove the clod, it'll grow back right. You have to have... You have to find causes before you find cures.

L-68 If you go into a doctor's office and tell him, "I'm sick at my stomach," and he gives you some aspirin and sends you home, He's either too busy to fool with you or don't care. A good doctor will take you in. If it cost you a little more but he will examine you till he finds the cause, and then go to working there.
Now, not as a medical doctor, but as a servant of Christ, I know the cause. It's sin. What is sin? "Brother Branham, I don't sin." Unbelief is sin. He that believeth not is condemned already. Unbelief is the only sin there is. He that believeth not is condemned. You...
Lying, stealing, committing adultery, that's not sin. That's the attributes of unbelief (That's right.), attributes of unbelief. If you believed, you wouldn't do those things.

L-69 Now, the Holy Spirit promised to come in the last days and show to the Gentile race that He was Messiah. That it would be God was above us in the Fatherhood, God with us in the Sonship, now God the Holy Ghost in us. You know that. "A little while and the world seeth Me no more, yet ye shall see Me, for I will be with you, even in you to the end of the consummation." It be there all, how long? To the end, the world ends He will still be there in you. God in you.
Now, if the Holy Spirit... If this is the Holy Spirit, and this Angel of God that they--science took the picture of, hangs in Washington, D. C., copyrighted, the only supernatural Being that's ever photographed. I say to you in Christ's Name: It ain't two feet from where I'm standing right now. That's right. That's right. That's the reason I'm saying what I'm saying. He's here.

L-70 There isn't a person I'm looking at in this building that I know. Yes, I do. I know this Brother Dal--Ed Daulton, this Baptist preacher brother setting right over here from up in Kentucky, and them two boys setting by him. Outside of that I don't see one soul that I know.
How many in here's sick and needs Christ for your healing, physical, or for some loved one, or something that you need of Christ; and you know I don't know you, know not what you're wanting? Raise up your hand. All right. Just have faith. Then in your faith believe God with all your heart.
Now, be real reverent. And then... Now, just take your time, and then don't be nervous. Then when you do believe that and to... I'll quote a Scripture out of the Book of Hebrews as soon as I make this quotation.
