<TITLE>21. Par 215-225</TITLE>L-215 Just let Him in one time, and then go back to the twist or the rock-and-roll, or whatever you're going to do, see what you can do. You can't do it. Let Him in one time, and then start to put on a pair of shorts, some of you women.

L-216 I know I'm taking you a long time, but I want to say one more thing, if it's all right, in this regard.

L-217   I suppose, the greatest meeting the Lord ever let me hold for Him was in Bombay, where I had around five hundred thousand, but, and two hundred and some thousand in--in Africa, Durban, at the race track. That afternoon, I said, after seeing such great marvelous thing that our gracious Lord come down and done, I said, "The missionaries taught you the Word, but the Word is quickened and made alive. What He said has to come to life." And--and then when there was twenty-five thousand healings taking place at one time, and load after load of good old chairs there; just one simple little prayer, they had seen the Holy Spirit just... Those people that didn't even know who they were and where they come from, that's all they wanted to see. See?

L-218 And I asked, "How many wants to receive Christ?" There was thirty thousand stood to their feet, blanket natives, packing idols.

L-219   Doctor Bosworth, Doctor Baxter and them, begin weeping. And Brother Bosworth run up, said--said, "Brother Branham, this is your coronation day."

L-220 Brother Baxter said, "Brother Branham, I wonder, I think they meant physical healing."

L-221 That boy was on his hands and knees. And the Holy Spirit told him where he come from, what had happened, said, "You'll talk. Think about your brother, he's about a half a mile back there. He was riding on a yellow goat, and he hurt his leg." I said, "But, THUS SAITH THE LORD, he is healed." Here come the boy, with the crutches over his hands, like that. And take them about twenty minutes for a militia to quieten them down.

L-222   Then this boy, on his hands and feet, like that, down, couldn't even raise up, naked. Oh, my, such a horrible thing! He thought he was coming up there to tourists, you know, to kind of do the--the jungle dance. And I took the chain and shook it. I said, "If I could help that poor creature, and won't do it, I'd be a... I wouldn't be fit to stand back here. But," I said, "I can't help him. But now I have a little gift, I can just pull it in gear, whatever the Lord says."

L-223 And when the Lord showed, told him who he was, said, "His mother and father is sitting out in there, they're Zulus." And said, "They're thin, unusual." A Zulu will average three hundred pound, per man. So then said, "They're unusual. But this boy was born in a Christian home, because on his... on the righthand side, as you go in the door, there is a picture of Christ, in the little thatch hut." And that was exactly right. His mother and father raised up. "And that's his name." That's who he was, and everything. They couldn't understand. I looked back and I seen him standing, in a vision there, just as straight as he could be. Never raised up, in his life, he was born like that. I said, "The Lord Jesus makes him whole."

L-224 He wasn't even in his right mind, trying to go, "uh, ba, ba, ba," like that.

L-225 And I got a hold of the chain, and shook it like that. I said, "Jesus Christ, son, makes you whole. Stand up on your feet." There he raised up. The tears running down, and off his black belly, as he went down like that. I seen thirty thousand blanket natives give their hearts to Jesus Christ.
