<TITLE>20. Par -</TITLE>L-29-4 Knowledge, not worldly, it reasons. Any kind of worldly knowledge reasons. See, but faith has no reasoning. God reveals to you a certain-certain thing's going to happen, every scientist in the world could say it's contrary, it could not happen; you believe it anyhow.
Yes, sir. It doesn't reason. The Bible said that we cast down reasons. You don't reason with faith. Faith has no reasoning; faith knows where it's at. Faith acts. Faith holds on. It can't move. Nothing can move it. I don't care whatever says this, that, or the other; it doesn't move a bit. It stays right there. Wait, wait, wait, wait, don't make any difference, stays right there.
God told Noah these things was going to happen; he believed It. See? God told Moses these things was going to happen; he believed it. God told the disciples certain things was going to happen; go up there at Pentecost and wait; they stayed right there. Yes, sir.

L-30-1 All right, now, knowledge. Now, not worldly knowledge, but it's heavenly knowledge. And heavenly knowledge, when God is the fountain of all knowledge, and God is the Word, then if you've got heavenly knowledge, you believe the Word, and you reason anything by the Word.
This tax case that the church has been in, or I have been in, one of the men one time in a little hearing told me, said... I said. They couldn't find nothing wrong. And so they begin to... I said, "Well, then if there's nothing wrong, why don't you get off my back?" See?

L-30-3 He went ahead telling me about some Scriptures. He said, great big fellow with a cigarette in his hand, he said, "Mr. Branham, I am a Bible student."
I said, "I'm glad to hear that."
He said, "Now, I want to know what this superstition. You charged for these handkerchiefs you send out, that little superstition of praying over the handkerchiefs and send them out, them anointed cloths you call them, cloths." He said, "Then, you charge for those."
I said, "No, sir, there's no charge to it."
And he said, "Well, on this superstition..."
I said, "You call it a superstition, sir? You told me a few minutes ago you was a Bible student."
He said, "I am."

L-30-5 I said, "Quote to me Acts 19:11." Knowledge, trapped his own self right into it, tried to change the subject. I said, "Then quote to me John 5:14." Couldn't do it. I said, "Then James 5:14, he couldn't do it. I said, "Do you know John 3:16?" See, knowledge, smart, world, but when...
He said, "But Mr. Branham, you're trying to try this case by a Bible. We're trying it by the laws of the land."
I said, "Sir, isn't the laws of the land based upon the Bible? Then it's justice." Amen.

L-30-6 Sure, knowledge, not worldly, spiritual knowledge of the Word, knowing what God said, do what God said. That's right. Then if you've got that and can believe all these things that He's the same in all these things the Word says is true, you punctuate everyone with a, "Amen" it's all right. Add that to your faith. That's all right.
Yes, if somebody tries to tell you that the Bible has lost Its power, there is no such a thing as the baptism of the Holy Ghost (Huh-uh.), don't add that. It won't work. It'll fall off, like putting clay on a rock; it won't stand up. It'll crumble.
