<TITLE>14. Par 123-138</TITLE>L-123 And so I held my hand out like that. I said, "Here, here is my wife, I know there is nothing wrong with her. Lay your hands upon mine, honey." And she did, and there a tumor vibrated, from female. And I said, "Sweetheart, you have a tumor, honey, in the female glands."
And she said, "I--I feel no effects."

L-124 I said, "Sweetheart, here it is on my hand. Raise your hand up." She raised up, then lay it back down. "See it?"

L-125 Well, when we went, come home, we got a very fine doctor friend; I went to school with him. We took her down, an examination. Said, "Billy, there is nothing wrong with her." Said, "She is all right. No tumor there."

L-126 I said, "Sam, I don't want to doubt your word, see, because you examined her, but there is tumor there."

L-127   Everybody, over three or four years, when I go to get my physical, when I go overseas, she goes with me for a physical. And when it was, never seen it.

L-128 And about two years ago, I come in one day, now I--I must tell all truth. See, you don't want to just bypass anything, you must tell all truth. And I've expressed to you, my love for my wife. But yet we have to watch in them things. I'm telling you the truth. The Heavenly Father, Who is my Witness right here now, knows it's true. Oh, at the house, how it is, just this, that, and everything! The poor little thing is going through the change of life at this time, menopause.

L-129 And for the last couple years, about two years ago, when we had a physical, then the doctor found a tumor on the left ovary. It had growed to about the size of a--of a walnut. He said, "Let me examine that again, Brother Branham." Said, "About three months, if that goes to growing, it has to come out." Well, then we...

L-130   But just before that, I got something to tell you. I forgot that. One day I come in, and from the house, and I was come in to do something, and I turned around and went out. And I said... She said, "Can you go downtown with me, Bill?"
And I said, "Not right now, honey."

L-131 And she said, "What are we going to do about Becky, a certain-certain?"
I said, "Well, honey, I don't know just what to do."

L-132   And there was something come up, and she was so nervous she could hardly hold herself together. People at the house, all night long. And like night before last, even at one o'clock in the morning, here were people in, around the house, around the windows and every... So then she was real nervous, and she said something to me, snappy, that she oughtn't to have said it. See? She said, "Then, Bill, you're always gone, and I have to take care of these children myself." She said, "You're never here. We can't make our decisions together. You're either out, gone..." And she started crying, went in, shut the door.

L-133 Right then I said, "Oh, poor little fellow!" I said, "My, I ought..." And I started out.

L-134 And It said, "Read II Chronicles 22." It was when Miriam rebuked Moses, for marrying an Ethiopian girl; be better that her father had spit in her face, than to do this.

L-135   And I--I went back in, I said, "Sweetheart, you said the wrong thing." And she was crying. I said, "You said the wrong thing, honey. God is going to make you pay for that. You shouldn't have done that. I'm all tore up, myself. You shouldn't have said that."

L-136 And she said, "Well, Bill, I--I get so tore up." And I just turned and walked back, 'cause I knowed she wasn't in any mood to receive it, so I went back out.

L-137 And the next examination, about a month after that, showed the tumor.

L-138 Last year, here it come again. When she tried it again, now it was up to the size of an orange. The doctor said, "Don't put her off any longer. You must operate. That's at a fast growing tumor, is malignant. If it gets all fed over, and gets hooked into the side, what are you going to do?"
I said, "Doctor, we have faith in God."
