<TITLE>25. Par 171-178</TITLE>L-171 Then I know, as this little child cries, for the new birth has been formed; when all other life breaks away, all mortal life and everything is gone, then it'll take something to shock me, and it takes death. Death gives you the shock, when it strikes you, but it only borns you again in a new Kingdom, over on the other side where there is no sickness, sorrow, no old age, or nothing. God help us.

L-172   How, friend, can you ever turn down something like that, seeing that there's no hopes in the world, outside of Jesus Christ? The red lights are flashing.
Nations are breaking, Israel's awakening,
The signs that the Bible foretold; (women cutting their hair, wearing shorts; the red light is on, see)
Gentile days numbered, with harrows encumbered;
"Return, O dispersed, to your own."
The day of redemption is near,
Men's hearts are failing for fear;
Be filled with the Spirit, have your lamp trimmed and clear,
Look up, your redemption is near!

L-173   I love Him. I want you to love Him. And as we bow our heads just a moment, in a word of prayer, in closing. The red lights are flashing. The signal is on. The Coming of the Lord is at hand. He speaks to the nations. He speaks to the people. He speaks through the signs and wonders. As we took Sodom and showed how that Angel come to Abraham, the signs that He performed just ere the falling of the fire, we see that.

L-174 He said, "In the days of Lot, they built, they sold." Look at it today. "And as the days of Noah," women becoming pretty, the sons of God falling, human flesh being worshipped in the form of females, and all these things that's taking place, that we've talked of tonight. The light's a flashing, the Coming of the Lord is at hand. Are you still just a church member?
Are you sure, my friend? How do you know you'll live through the night? Look at Brother Way standing here this morning, in a moment, just turning around to shake hands with somebody, dropped dead right in his track. God might not be so kind to you as to give you another opportunity. You don't know what minute that that heart makes its last beat. Think of it.

L-175   The Coming of Christ is flashing its signs. Look at them. See if what I've told you tonight... It may not be very popular, but it's the Truth. It's what God said, and here we are.

L-176 Women don't want to stay home. They don't want to take care of their families. They just hire a babysitter and go out to a party somewhere. Juvenile delinquent, all things is taking place; bobbing their hair, wearing shorts, make-up. The increase is getting prettier and prettier. Man, sons of God, are falling. It's a trap for Satan to use, the sons of God to fall into that. Just as Jesus said, it has to happen. He said it would be there, and here it is. He said, "When these things come to pass, this generation will not pass away," and that's forty years, "until all these things be fulfilled." Think of it.

L-177   Are you still just a church member? Have you done wrong? Look and search your life over, tonight, men, women. Look at yourself, look at your own faults. What, in your present state now, if Christ was on earth preaching this? You say "If--if He would have, if I'd have heard Him preach that, I--I would have repented." If you would, This is His Own Word tonight, you'll do it now. If you're without God, and you know...

L-178 "Oh," you say, "I belong to church. I've spoke in tongues. I--I don't..." Now we're laying that aside. Look at yourself, check your life now with God's Word. Are you that person to walk away and say, "I don't care what the Bible says. Brother Branham, I think you're wrong"? It ain't me that's wrong. If there's any wrong about it, It's the Word.
And you don't know God yet, and you're not sure that if Jesus should come at this hour that you'd be ready to go. Why would you trifle, when seeing death is so close, when see the end is so close?
