<TITLE>16. Par 164-176</TITLE>L-164 This, something now, after speaking... It used to be that, ever who spoke, they did the speaking. You remember that, I'd just walk right in and start the prayer line. It was much easier. But, today, I--I--I got to do something else. See? And I--I got to bring This, that's all. If it's received... I--I can just sow Seed. I--I can't make It live. It has to fall in the right kind of ground.

L-165 You know, His Own Seed, they said He sowed. Some fell by the wayside, didn't do no good at all. Some fell in thorns, but, and on stony ground. But some went over in good soil. That was the Son of God.
I can just sow Seeds, the same way. See?

L-166 May He take my ignorance, lay it over to one side; and take my heart, that I believe Him, and look down and see if I love Him, or not; and then forgive me of all my sins, and use me in any way that He--He can get glory out of me. Life or death, doesn't matter, just so it glorifies Him.

L-167   Now I ask everyone, in the Name of the Lord Jesus, please be seated just for a few minutes. Don't walk around. This is going to be always like this. Can you--can you imagine the expectation of the appearing of Jesus Christ?

L-168 Now if I walked out here, as a man, said, "I am the Lord Jesus," had long hair; we don't know whether He did or not. "I've got nail scars in my hands," uh-huh, any hypocrite can do that. "I got oil and blood, and every..." That, still, that hasn't... The Scripture didn't promise that.

L-169 How would you know Jesus? You don't... You say, "Well, I'd know Him by His picture." No, that's some psychology painted that. We don't know what He looked like. See? I don't know what He was. That's, see, it has to be that way.

L-170 Rebekah didn't know what Isaac looked like, but it was love, anyhow. See? She didn't know what he looked like; she just had to go. The types! She seen him and loved him. She was willing to go, anyhow, no matter what he looked like.

L-171 But how would I know Him? Jesus said, "By their fruits they are known." Now if Jesus was here, He would not be in a physical form like me, 'cause that body is setting at the right hand of the Majesty, but His Life is here.

L-172 And, remember, this is the last promise, the last sign that the church gets, before the promised sign--promised Son returns. That Scripture cannot be broken, you know. Immediately after Sodom, the promised son arrived, and Sodom was burned. So shall it be again!

L-173   Let's call from prayer card, say about... What'd we go, one to fifteen, last night? Let's take the other fifteen, eighty-five to a hundred. Prayer card K. Was that it, K? K, eighty-five, who has it? Raise up your hand. Yes, is somewhere? Eighty-five, come over here. Eighty-six, Eighty-seven, eighty-eight, eighty-nine, ninety, in K. Ninety, ninety-five, a hundred, line up down here, while I speak with the rest of the audience, just a moment.

L-174 How many here does not have a prayer card? And you're really sincere, and you want God to help you, raise up your hands. "I--I haven't a prayer card, Brother Branham." Now watch. Now don't move around. Sh! Just let them that's coming out, come up here, just a minute. Be real reverent now, just a few minutes.

L-175 Think, we're in the Presence of the Judge of Heaven and earth. How reverent would you be if you could see Him standing here? You would be on your knees, screaming, crying, everything. But He's here. He promised it, "Where two or three are gathered in My Name..." That don't mean, 'cause you've just been said, "Here's a Name." That means, "... in His Name, I am in their midst." Notice.

L-176   Now are they all there, that I called? No. K, eighty-five, was that what I called, or ninety? [Someone says, "Eighty-five."] Eighty-five, eighty-five to one hundred, stand over here. If you can't come, some...
