<TITLE>10. Par -</TITLE>1L-157-Q-384 384. Brother Branham, did Jesus change the physical mask several times when appearing to the disciples after His resurrection?
"Did He change His physical mask?" I--I wouldn't know, because I think what it was; He didn't change His mask there. The thing He did, He withheld their seeing or knowing Him.
Like those who came from Emmaus, they walked with Him all day and it was withholden from them. And they saw a Man on the bank one time fishing where they had fished; He said, "Children, have you got anything?"
And they said, "We've taken nothing, toiled all night."
He said, "Cast on the other side." And he took up a whole bunch of fish, and they knew then it was the Lord. I think it wasn't His mask that was changed; I think it was just the peoples eyes was withheld.

1L-158-Q-385 385. Brother Branham, what is the difference, if--if any, between the Angel of the Lord and the Lord, Himself.
The angel of the Lord is a messenger from the Lord, and the Lord Himself is that Person, not the person of the angel, the angel from the Lord. Let me show you. Earthly speaking here's an angel from the Lord. Earthly speaking here's an angel from the Lord. Earthly speaking here's the angel from the Lord. How do we know then that they are angels from the Lord? When they bring the Word of the Lord. But when they try to pervert It, it's not from the Lord then (See, see?)--try to make It say something It doesn't say. Just say whatever...
Then there is a supernatural Angel comes down from the Lord, a Messenger like Gabriel, and--and Michael, Woodworm, and so forth, their names.

1L-158-Q-386 386. Brother Branham, what seems to be wrong in the day when we are living, of being a believer and following the Message and messenger of today, when you cannot seem to pray like you would like to?
That's a good question. I believe brother, sister, ever who asked it, it's a cause of the conditions of time. The revival is over. The revival has lasted some fifteen years, never did last before over about three years. I believe it's received its last revival. And I believe that's why you can't pray and feel in the Spirit like you used to. It's because the revival fires has gone out.

1L-158-Q-387 387. Brother Branham, please explain how a person knows if he is thinking his own thoughts, or if the devil is placing thoughts in his mind to make him think wrong, especially, if you know you do not want to think them.
Then, if it's contrary to the Word, it's the devil's thinking. If it's with the Word, it's God thinking. If it's the wrong thoughts, it's the devil. If it's good thoughts of the Word and of God, it's God's thinking.

1L-159-Q-388 388. If the case may be that the devil is placing thoughts in your mind about a certain thing, how may it be overcome or got rid of?
Take the very vice versa from it. If the devil makes you think that--that--that you are... If you know you're a Christian, and he tries to make you think you're not a Christian, just take the versa, say, "I am a Christian." As long as your experience matches in God's Word say, "I'm a Christian." Anything else, the same way.
When you answer this, please pray for me to overcome this, as I am not by myself.
God grant your overcoming, ever who you are. May your thoughts just go right back the other side and say, "I am a Christian; I am a believer. Satan, you have no hold on me."
Frankly, I'm standing right here now saying the same thing, keep from fainting right here at the pulpit. That's right. Four or five times I've almost pitched over on the pulpit. That's the truth. God knows that's right.
