<TITLE>09. Par 99-115</TITLE>L-99 And then I seen them take the horns, and a little hand reach and get the horn, put the tape on it. It measured forty-two inches, from the top of the beam to the top of the horn, forty-two-inches high. I never seen any animal like it, great big spikes on his horns. And, yet, it looked like a deer, but it's, oh, my, make two or three deer. I never seen anything like it.

L-100 "Well," I said, "probably it'll come to pass someday. I'll just write it down."

L-101   I went down in Kentucky with a friend of mine, and Brother Miner Arganbright called me, said, "Brother Branham, are you busy?"

L-102 Said, "Not so bad." I said, "I was on my... I got two weeks now. I'm on a little vacation."

L-103 Said, "Run up to Canada, to Alaska, with me. We want to organize a Business Men's chapter at Anchorage and also over at Fairbanks."
I said, "Sounds all right, if I can get the time to do it."

L-104 He said, "Well, Brother Branham, if you'll do it, I tell you what, we'll give you a nice grizzly-bear hunt."

L-105 Thought, "Oh, that sounds fine." I thought, "Oh, oh, there's the vision. See, that's it."

L-106   "A nice grizzly-bear hunt," I said, "that sounds good. I don't go for that. But, while we're up there, and some of the guides wants to take me out, free, I'll be glad to go."
So, he said, "Well, they, they'll do it. We got it fixed up."
I said, "Well, now wait. Let me pray over it."

L-107 And I went up in the woods that day, and every time I prayed, farther away I got, all the time, completely away from it. I thought, "That's strange." And two days after that, I called Brother Arganbright. I said, "No."

L-108 He said, "Brother Branham, we just getting things arranged."

L-109 I said, "Don't do it. The Holy Spirit has condemned it." I told him the vision. I said, "I--I don't know, Brother Arganbright, but it's strange. But He won't let me go up there, and, yet, it sounds like that--that would be the place."
And he said, "Well, now, we're all set to go." And I said...

L-110 Now, many of you will see Brother Arganbright. He's coming here now, to make ready with me, to go overseas after this meeting. And so you can ask him the story. So we said...
I said, "No. I just can't do it. The Holy Spirit tells me not."

L-111   It's best to obey, no matter how much, how good it looks. I'm going to preach on something like that tomorrow night, the Lord willing. So now, remember, no matter how good it looks, if God isn't in it, stay away from it. No matter how glamor it looks, stay away from it. How prosperous, stay away from it if God isn't in it. Stay away from it. Now we're going to speak on that tomorrow night, the Lord willing.

L-112 Now, then when I went home, Billy said to me, my son, he said, "Dad, do you know that hunter that you went hunting with last spring up there, by the name of Southwick?"

L-113 "Oh," I said, "up on the... in the... below the Yukon there?"
He said, "Yes."
Said, "He's got a letter here for--for you."

L-114 He's Brother Eddie Byskal, which is the head of the--the ministerial association of that northwestern country up in there, a very fine boy, may be here in this meeting. He's planning on coming this a way this time. Fine little boy, and he's got a nice family. He's--he's missionary up there now to the Crees, Cree Indians. And I was just with him last fall and then, or last summer, rather.

L-115   Then he, Eddie, wanted to take me over to Bud's, which was one of his converts to Christ. His wife was a staunch Pentecostal. Bud was a rancher, and he just recently come in. But he had been lotted, where they drove the Indians out and put them on the reservation, a great territory for hunting. About six... Oh, I guess he got about three hundred square miles, or more, around in there, for a territory lotted to him by the Canadian government.
