<TITLE>37. Par 396-409</TITLE>L-396   Listen. Aren't you happy? Could there be anything greater, that you could think of, that you've done in your life?

L-397 What if it's over now? What if it's all done? "Oh," you say, "Brother Branham, maybe..." Yeah, I know. They could go right on. They did, each time. I've explained that and proved it by the Scripture, see, the world continued rolling right on, but it was done. See?

L-398 "The foolishness of preaching saves the lost. And it's foolishness, to men. It's the wisdom of God." See? God is a Spirit. He works in spiritual ways, see, His wonders to perform; wondrous ways. But, we are human, we are finite. We don't know; we just look upon what we can see. But Something within us...

L-399   When you walk out of that room here, if you never had it seen in your life, never had seen daylight, you would know that you passed from this room here, into a sunlight or something. It was warm. You could feel it. If there's no sense of your body to declare it, you would know, oh, no sense of sight to see it. No way to see the green trees, to see the nature; you didn't have sight, nobody ever had it. You would know you would be in the presence of something; your feeling would tell you that. You would know that. If I'd try to tell you, "It's the sun. It reflects. It shows things." See, you would know that it was there because you could feel it with your feelings. Is that right? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.]

L-400   Now, we know that Christ is here. See? Maybe you don't see Him with your eyes. See? Maybe you don't. But through vision, I tell you, He's here. We feel It. We know there is Something here that our senses doesn't declare. It's the Spirit declares it, that Christ is here.

L-401 I feel that He has redeemed us. I feel that our names are on His Book. I believe that we've been redeemed by the Blood of the Lamb.
I love you, and I know you love one another.
Oh, blest be the tie that binds
Our hearts in Christian love;
The fellowship of kindred mind
Is like to that Above.

L-402 We should always feel that way to one another. See, we must, we must feel that way to one another. See? Cause, as we love one another, we love God. "Can you hate your brother who you have seen, and say you love God Who you have not seen?" We must love each other. "Greater love has no man than He that laid down His life for His enemy, that they might become His friends." Oh!

L-403   Do you know that song, Blest Be The Tie That Binds? Isn't it wonderful? Blest be the tie! Would you give us the chord on that, sister, there? Just let it play a minute.

L-404 What if it's over? What if the Third Pull, coming up now, is to preach to the lost? What if all the types are going to show forth now? And we're in, and we're in, wouldn't that be wonderful? What a fellowship!
Oh, blest be the tie that binds (here's what does it)
Our hearts in Christian love;
The fellowship of kindred mind
Is like to...

L-405   What was that? Fellowship of kindred minds. "Thy Kingdom come. Thine will be done." See?

L-406 We try to make God a--a mascot boy, an errand or something, "God, do this, do that."

L-407 Jesus said, "Pray, 'Thy Kingdom come. Thine will be done in earth, as it is in Heaven.'" Then, Heaven is brought down to us, and we're--we are brought up to Heaven, and we're sitting in Heavenly places now in Christ Jesus. We all believe that Message to be the Truth, that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, redeems us.

L-408 Let's close our eyes now and raise our hands, while we sing it.
Blest be the tie that binds
Our hearts in Christian love;
The fellowship of kindred mind
Is like... (Keep playing it.)

L-409   Now, not one smile. This is not smiling time. With a deepness of sincerity, while that song is a playing, let's shake hands with somebody by you, say, "God bless you, Christian," with sincerity.
