<TITLE>06. Par 64-79</TITLE>L-64 I said, "I wouldn't either. We don't. We're not supposed to do that. We're brethren."
And he said, "Well," he said, "I would just like to help you."
I said, "I'm certainly willing to get help."
And he said, "Now, you see," he said, "now the... that's true."

L-65   And I said, "Now, on talking, we mustn't use textbooks." I said, "I won't use mine," and I had none but This one. But so--so I said, "I won't use textbook, just the Bible. And, you, we just use the Bible."
He said, "All right."

L-66 I said, "Now, we believe that the apostolic church begin at the Day of Pentecost. Do you agree with that?"
He said, "Yes, I do."

L-67 I said, "Now we realize that God gave the church power there, for these apostolic movements."

L-68 He said, "Yes, that was the framework of the Church. Now the Church is already set in order, and we got all of our pastors, and our great organizations and things. We don't need those things anymore, to draw people."

L-69 I said, "Now where does the Bible say that?" I said, "You tell me where the Bible says that at." See?
And he said, "Well, it doesn't exactly say that in that way."

L-70   I said, "Well, then, I can't receive it 'less it says it just in that way, see. See?" I said, "We're..." I said, "That's the way it has to be." I said, "Do you believe that God is still calling people?"
He said, "Yes, sir."

L-71 I said, "Now you will believe that the Bible is correct, every answer?"
"Yeah."

L-72 I said, "Now, the spokesman at the Day of Pentecost, was Peter, who had the keys to the Kingdom."
"That's right."

L-73 And I said, "Now, whatever his decision was, Jesus said, 'What you bind on earth, I'll bind in Heaven; what you loose on earth, I'll loose in Heaven.'"
He said, "I'll believe that."

L-74 I said, "Now, in Acts the 2nd chapter and the 38th verse, Peter said to those people who were marveling. These people speaking in unknown tongues. And they asked him what they could do to be saved, and he said, 'Repent, every one of you, and be baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sin, you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost; for the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to them that's far off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.' Now if God is still calling, that same promise is for them."

L-75   Well, he come over here and was with one of Billy Graham's groups up here praying for a meeting. And a group of them was sitting up here in California somewhere, a few weeks ago, in real deep sincere prayer, consecrated to God, fasting, and the Holy Ghost fell on the whole bunch and begin to speak in other tongues. Yeah.

L-76 Now he is a member of the--of the Friendly church, the Assemblies of God in Tucson, Arizona. He said, "Oh, Brother Branham, I go up there and feel so good!" Said, "Just raise back my hands, and," said, "the glory of God! I just sing!" And said, "I never could do that in a New Testament Baptist church."
I said, "I see you can't. That's why you're out." Yeah.

L-77 So there you are, see, God keeps His Word. What He says, He'll do it. God has to keep His Word.

L-78   Now we find out here, that, this carnal impersonation that Moab had. He saw this prophet among Israel, that was able to bless, curse, lead, and so forth, so he tries to match it, by politics.

L-79 Now that's just what's taken place in the churches today. They have tried to match it with some kind of a system. You can't do it.
