<TITLE>02. Par 6-10</TITLE>L-6 Now, we realize that we haven't got the tinsel on the meetings that we did at the first time. Usually a revival breaks out; it lasts according to history about three years. A minister usually gives his best in three years. After that he lives on his reputation of what he made in those three years. I'm so glad I've placed mine upon the Word (That's right.), so I can live by the Word.
I just believe this blessed old Bible. I just think it's the grandest thing. And I think it is--it is God. The Word is God in letter form. And when the Holy Spirit lines up on It, It just brings it to life.

L-7 I was talking to someone... We have private interviews, and that's where you have to... We... By the way, at home I think there was three hundred on the list when we left, waiting for those private interviews. We go in with the people, just pull the curtains down, and we stay there until... We pray until the Lord reveals by a vision what to do. Now, we know the Word of the Lord tells us, and lays out the program. But there's sometimes that there's things in a person's life that they don't know just what to do. And there's where we stay before the Lord until it's answered. And then we hit these interviews, like we come over here. The people in this district maybe has been waiting, some of them, for four or five years for these interviews.

L-8 And we were speaking (I believe it was yesterday or this morning, one) that about the Light shining in the last days. Now, I have refrained from preaching, because I'm just here to pray for the sick, and to put my net with my brethren and pull. But I truly believe that we're living in the last days. It's right at the end time. And I'd like to take a--a group like this, a unity of spirit and heart, and I wish we had about two or three weeks that we could just start through, having afternoon services, and morning services, and evening services, and just bring the Bible as we see it.

L-9 And I've been so thankful. There's a Greek scholar setting behind me, and I was with him the other day. The man is from Greece. His father is a noted minister in Greece, and he takes my tapes. And he said, "Brother Branham, I thought you were a Greek scholar."
I said, "I don't even know good English, let alone one word of Greek."
He said, "But bringing your nouns, pronouns, and everything in your teaching on your tapes," said, "I can put a line like this and it divides it perfectly and hits right in with the Greek."
And I said, "Well, I'm thankful for that, because I always try to feel led of the Holy Spirit to say what I say. And it I... If it said anything contrary to the Bible, then I wouldn't believe it. See? I wouldn't believe that it was the Holy Spirit, because It will always stay in the Bible. The Holy Spirit will."

L-10 And we were talking about this little woman that I--this afternoon, or this morning, I believe it was, that we were talking about the little woman that I spoke of, the ill-famed little fellow that came out to the well at Sychar, and she seen the Lord Jesus, and not recognize Him, yet she was to be one of His disciples.
Now, I have a little funny doctrine, and... Now, if it don't go just right with yours, you do the same way I do when I'm eating fried chicken at your house. I just love fried chicken. And when I hit a bone, I don't quit eating chicken: I just throw the bone away, and keep eating chicken. So then you believe the same thing.
