<TITLE>40. Par 406-418</TITLE>L-406 The Bible says that He said Himself, "I'll be with you. And the works that I once did, I'll always do in you; and be with you plumb to the end of the world. And those that believe in Me, when they have hands laid on them, if they're sick, they shall recover. They shall." Not "maybe they will."
"Jones did; but Johnson didn't." That don't have one thing to do with it. If Johnson believed like Jones, he would've recovered too. Is that right? Nothing uncertain. Nothing uncertain.
"He that comes to Me, I will in no wise cast out." Nothing uncertain.
"Well, now, He might not receive me." Oh, you poor deluded person.
Listen. Let me tell you, as His servant. There's no one can come to Him but what He will receive. "Though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow." Nothing uncertain. "I'll forgive part of them; maybe you've done this and you've done that, and I'll hold it against you"?
"They shall be white as snow."
"Well, He won't forgive me for what I've done to my husband, what I've done to my wife, what I done my sister, what I done to my brother, what I did."
I don't care what you done. There's nothing uncertain; He'll forgive everything. "Though they be red as crimson, they'll be white like wool." Nothing uncertain.

L-413 "Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the Name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Promise is unto you, your children, them that's far off," (now watch now, watch, you ex--extreme trinitarian), "even as many as the Lord our God shall call." This same prescription, it'll work through every gener...
Not, "It may be. It'll--it'll change, after while to 'Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.'" You poor deluded teacher.

L-415 God cannot change. He's infinite. Prescription works every time, but you give it in the right way. Yes, sir, "Now, repent, and be baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, you shall receive the Holy Ghost." For it is, what? This Prescription, this baptism, this form of baptism, this Holy Ghost, this same power. Not just shake hands and say, "I'll turn a new leaf and do better." No, sir. "You shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost; and the power of God come upon you, change your ways, speak in tongues, lay hands on the sick, cast out devils, do the same as they did." For how many, how long?
"To the end of the disciples?" You are a false prophet if you say that. You're a false teacher if you say that.

L-417 For, "Jesus Christ," the Bible teaches us that, "He's the same yesterday, today, and forever." And the apostles said here, that "The promise is unto you, and to your children and to them that's far off, even..." Say it with me. [Brother Branham and congregation finishing quoting Acts 2:39, in unison--Ed.] "... even as many as the Lord our God shall call." How many? Every age, every generation, every color, every creed, every whatever it is, as many as God calls. And if God calls you, He commands you to be baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ and receive the Holy Ghost. Then Christ Hisself lives in you, and there's no uncertain sound, no uncertainty of it. You've got the Bible. Oh, you stand on it. You can live on it. You can die on it. You'll rise on it. Glory. It's God's Word. Whew. My.

L-418 Like Rebekah who watered the camel, the very camel that she watered, she rode on it to meet her bride. The very God that we preach about, the very Word which is God, the very God that's in the Word, will rise us up someday by the baptism of Holy Ghost. And our critics will be killed by the same power that raises you to glory. See? Oh, my. Rise up and ride on it.
You people that's sick, don't you disbelieve God.
