<TITLE>30. Par 276-285</TITLE>L-276 "I got to quit this kind of life I'm living. I got to be right." That's God, God in His Word, making Hisself known to you. "I ought to make my life right with God." That's God. That's God. It's certain. "I've got to die someday." Certainly you're going to die. "I've got to answer at the judgment." Certainly you're going to answer at the judgment.
Then where is your judgment, yonder at the throne where you have no mercy, or here at the throne where you can get mercy? Now, you're the choice. That's the tree like in the garden of Eden, one of Life and one of death. Put it off for there and you die; take it now and you live. Now, you're the judge (See?); you're the one that has to... You are the judge now, but He's the Judge then. You're judge now, whether you want it or not. He's the Judge then, whether you received it or not. So you'll just have to make up your mind what you want to do, but it's up to you. Every man, like Adam and Eve, the right and wrong set before every person and you have to make your mind.
"Surely I'll be with you."

L-278 "How would I ever go back and tell my boss that I got saved and filled with the Holy Ghost?"
"Surely I'll be with you."
"How will I ever tell my husband that I'm going to quit my meanness? How will I ever be able to do that?"
"Surely I'll be with you."
"How can I tell my wife, that I--I've lived wrong and I've done things wrong? How could I ever do this? How can I ever stand before my family again? How will they ever believe me, when--when they know that I've cursed and carried on, and done the things I done, and go back and tell them 'I'm a Christian'"?
"Surely I'll be with you," said God.

L-281 It'll make you do things you wouldn't think. Look at Moses, how radical it made him act. What did he do, that man, eighty years old...
You say, "Well, Brother Branham, now I'm getting to be a middle-aged man, an old man." Or, I don't care how old you are, that don't have one thing to do. The day that God can get you quiet enough to speak to you, and you can hear His Word, that's the day He's talking to you, no matter your age. "How can I ever do it, Brother Branham?"
Look at Moses, eighty years old. Egypt had the whole world conquered, they held every, all the military secrets and everything in their own hand. And Moses put his wife astraddle of a little old mule, put Gershom on her hip, and here he goes the next morning with a crooked stick in his hand, the white whiskers hanging down like this, and probably his bald head shining like that, and this old mule going down through there. Pulling this old mule along, he was hollering, "Glory to God. Praise the Lord."
Somebody say, "Moses, where are you going?"
"Going down to Egypt to take the thing over." How ridiculous.

L-285 But when a man talks to God, and has got the voice of God in him, and the Word of God in him... "If ye abide in Me," John 15, "if you abide in Me, and My Words in you; you can ask what you will, and it'll be done to you." See, nothing uncertain, it shall be done. That's right, nothing uncertain.
Moses, how you... Mo--Moses might've said to God, "How am I going to do that, be a one-man invasion? How can me, an old man nearly eighty years old, and how am I going to go down there, with that great big army and millions of men, and take it over?"
"Surely I'll be with you."
That's all he had to know. Here he goes. Here he goes. He's going down. And he took over too. Why? He was certain that the Sound that he heard was right.
