<TITLE>26. Par 77-79</TITLE>L-77 Now, what--you that raised your hands, what if tonight was your last night on earth? And if sometime between now and daylight, you'd happen to wake up in your sleep and your heart stopping. Your--your veins are cooling off, your hand's getting cold. You're pressing a--a pillow as you're dying. The doctor walks away from the door and says, "No, it's a heart attack. They're gone." See? Nothing... You hear him say that. Won't it be wonderful when you know that you raised your hand. Oh, how sweet. How glad you'll be. What if you have a wreck going home. And you're laying on the side of the road bleeding, hearing the ambulance coming, but know it's coming too late. And you know that you raised your hand to Christ. You say, "Let it be, I have to go sometime anyhow. So I'm ready now, and now's the time to go." Just raise your hand. Make that all one decision right now, will you, my brother, my sister? Raise up your hand.

L-78 You say, "Brother Branham, why do you plead with people like that? This is not your tabernacle; this is not your church." I know. Brother Buntane, my brother's the pastor here. The Assemblies of God, this church belongs to, which, this building here... And the Assemblies of God is one of my greatest supporters in Pentecostal realms around the world. That's not... But still... All that, as much as I love them, that's not the reason. I love you. I love you as an individual. I don't want you to be lost.
I had a vision. I hope I have time to tell it to you, what happened a few nights ago. I seen glory, and seen people, and seen a woman run up and put her arm around me up there. I've been a little rough on women anyhow, and I seen that woman, the most beautiful thing I ever seen. And she called me her darling brother. And I said, "Why'd she do that?"
Said, "She was passing ninety when you led her to Christ."
I said, "Oh, God, if I can only go back, I'll persuade, I'll beg, I'll plead, I'll do everything."

L-79 Won't you raise your hand and say, "I accept Christ as my Saviour." Surely, if God lets me do what I do do for Him, I surely know--have some conception of how--how to receive Him. Would there be a lukewarm church member here? Now, everybody with your head bowed. A lukewarm church member, just, you've professed you knowed Christ, but really down in your heart you haven't, but you want to know Him; raise your hand, a church member. God bless you, sir. Some other? God bless you, brother. God bless you.
Someone else, just a church member, say, "I want to know Christ. I--I belong to church, and I--I can say nothing evil against that. I'd sure rather you be on--belong to the church than out on the street without anything." You go on to church, but I want you please come and receive the Seal of God. 'Cause, if you haven't got it, well the Bible says there's only two classes. Wait till tomorrow night and you'll see. Two classes, one will have the mark of the beast, the other one have the Seal of God. Just like Cain and Seth in the garden of Eden, comes to that thing. Will you--will you raise your hand? One more now, 'fore we pray. God bless you, lady.
