<TITLE>06. Par 18-20</TITLE>L-18 So, [Brother Branham coughs--Ed.] I had a--(pardon me)--I had a Businessmen's breakfast up there, and was speaking for the Full Gospel Businessmen. And Mr. Moore, Brother Jack Moore, many of you brethren are acquainted with him, one fine man, and I... he... This Dr. Aegery came to--to Brother Moore, and asked him if I could--if he'd bring me over to the college.
And I thought, "I'm sure in for it now." So I... Brother Moore is a theologian; so I thought, "Well, I'd better take him along." And so I said, "You set right next to me. And if he speaks some words and grammar that I don't understand, I'll kick you on the leg like that. Then you take from there on."
And he said, "All right."

L-19 So we went over to the college. And when we got there, they had a place about the size of this auditorium here for the--the dinner. And the--it was Norwegian people, and they had their dinner set, and very fine, nice. And the dean set next on one side, and his associate the other.
So, after I finished, he said, "Brother Branham, we want to ask you some questions."
I said, "Let me kinda first have a word." I said, "I--I--I'm might not be able to answer your questions." I said, "I... If I can't, it'd be all right if Brother Moore to help me here." I said, "But I've--I--I may not be good at answering your questions, but I'll do what I can."
And he said, "Here's what it is." Said, "We have heard of Pentecostals years and years." And said, "We went to see them." And said, "What did we find, but kicking over the chairs, and knocking out the windows, and--and everything like that," said, "and all the noise we ever heard in our life..." Said, "What's those people got?"
I Said, "The Holy Ghost."
He said, "The Holy Ghost?"
I Said, "Yes." I said.
He said, "Have you always been a Pentecostal?"
I said, "Well, I once belonged to the Missionary Baptist Church when I was just a boy, was ordained." But I said, "Immediately after I got ordained," I said, "I--I got the Holy Ghost, so I guess I been Pentecostal."
He said, "You mean to tell me that's Pentecostal, them Pentecostal people, that's the Holy Ghost making them kick over the chairs, and carry on like that? "
I said, "Yes, it's the Holy Ghost." I said, "The thing of it is," I said, "they got so much pressure built up, steam, they blow it out the whistle instead of put it in the engine and make the wheels roll. See? That's--that all." I said--I said, "That's right." I said, "There's so much steam there, they just have to toot it out the whistle. That's all I know. See?" And I said, "They can't hold it no longer."
And he said, "Well..."
I said, "If I could get fundamental teaching in Pentecostal faith, or Pentecostal faith in fundamental teaching... Them people are servants of God, but they really don't realize the position that they hold. That's all."
And he said, "Well, what do you think we Lutheran has got?"
Said, "The Holy Ghost."
Then he stopped, and he said, "Now, I don't know what to ask you."

L-20 I said, "Well, I understand you got about a thousand acres here that you put in corn." I said, "If the students are not able to pay their way through, then they can work their way through the college."
He said, "Right."
So the Lord gave me a little thought, and I said, "Sir, one time there was a man who broke up a great field to plant corn, and he planted his corn in the field. And the next... One morning he went out. And when he looked out upon his field he saw two little blades." Anyone knows that raised corn that's how it comes up. What we call the "sprig corn" down in the South, just comes up like that--two little blades.
And I said, "The man stood on his doorstep, and said, 'Praise the Lord for my crop of corn.'" I said, "Now, did he have a crop of corn?"
He said, "Well, he--he had a start."
And I said, "Well, potentially he had a crop of corn. See? He had it in its infant form." And I said, "That was you Lutherans."
