L-1 Thank you. Thank you. Thank you very much...?... Thank you, very much. My, that certainly makes me feel welcome. Thank you so much.
I appreciate that. And sometimes ministers, you know, when we put all the efforts that we can right in anything, then see it's appreciated by the people, my, that just makes you feel so good. I certainly appreciate you. I'll always be praying for you. And if the Lord willing, I will be back again. And I would like to come back and see and... Thank you. If He tarries and it's His will, we'll be back to see you again.
This is my, I believe, about my third trip here anyhow. And so we hope to come back when we can stay maybe a little longer, get the grounds, and so forth, for a little bit longer and--and... I thank you. It's been a great pleasure, one of the finest meetings that we've had in a long, long, time: such fine fellowship, cooperation, love. That's the things that melts the hearts of the people together, is the love of God.

L-2 And all that I know, and I would... If I had all of God's gifts in a great big place that I could go in and receive any gift that I wished, I would accept love above any of them. I'd rather have love than all the gifts that God has, because where there's tongues, they shall cease; where there's prophecy, it shall fail; but when it's love, it endures forever. And I... the love...
I just think that's the most grandest word: love. It's broke down in two different words. There's a love that's called "phileo" love. That's the love that we have one for another natural. And then there's "Agapao" love, which comes from God. That's a godly respects and love. And I'm so glad to be here in this fellowship this afternoon where both phases of love is operating: fellowship one with another, and the love of God shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost.

L-3 I want to thank that little choir. And Brother Borders just came over and said to me; he said, "Brother Branham, that's not no selected choir. That's just people of the campaign, just different ones." You should get one another's name and form a choir. That's really good. And I certainly like your message too, that you've been born again. I'm glad to fellowship with you with that. I've been born again too by the same Spirit and in the same family. And you're my brother and sister by that.
That's the only place that fellowship ever can be, is under the Blood of Jesus Christ. When God makes a decision, it must forever be that way. And God's first decision to bring men into fellowship with Himself was under the blood, from the garden of Eden till this very minute. That's the only place that the Old Testament, only one place, that was under the blood. Job, how flatly he stood on that, knowing when they called him a secret sinner, yet he knowed he was under the shed blood, and everything had to be all right. So we're happy for that today.

L-4 I just don't know how to express my thanks for these fine brethren here, you brethren. How nice you've been. I've never had a nicer sponsorship in my life. You've just been tops in everything. I'm trusting that God will set a revival fire in each of your churches that'll just--just you'll have to build bigger churches, and stretch out, and pull up your tents, and stretch farther and just go right on. May the revival fires burn again until we see Jesus face to face.
