<TITLE>10. Par 90-97</TITLE>L-90   See what this handsome little man said this afternoon? When you get out of school, when you get away from, you need another leader, but let that be Jesus. And Jesus is the Bible. Do you believe that? This is Jesus' Life and His Commandments to us, in letter form. So we have to look into This, to see. This is the blueprint. This is the map that He told us to follow, to--to begin Eternal Life.
Now we find out that this young man was lost.

L-91   Now let's take another. Would you like, would you have time to take another rich young ruler, that made the right move? Would you like to hear that? All right, we'll try it now. Now let us take another rich young ruler who was confronted with the same thing. Now we see where that boy went, that lived a pretty good life, but died and was lost in hell. And now here we're going to talk about another young man who was confronted with the same thing. He was a rich man, a young man, and was a ruler, and, but he accepted the leadership of Christ; like the little boy told us a while ago, that we should let lead us. He accepted it.

L-92   The Scripture for this is found, if you want to look it up after I get through, see, is in Hebrews, the 11th chapter, and the 23rd to the 29th verse. Let me just read It. Is that all right? You'll bear with me just a little bit, won't you? You don't mind if I don't, will you? See? So we just... We'll just read this, then you say, "I heard Brother Branham read this out of the Bible." See? And you know it's there then. It wasn't what I said, it's what He said. Now you listen here, of what the Bible said here of this nice fellow, see. Now look.
By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months of his parents, because they saw he was a proper child; and they were not afraid of the king's commandment.
By faith Moses, when he... come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter; (listen)
Choosing rather to suffer the affliction with the people of God, than to suffer the pleasures of sin for a season;
Esteeming the reproach of Christ...

L-93 Way back in Moses' time, it was still Christ. See? He is the only One has Eternal Life. See?

L-94 "Esteeming the reproach," to be called a fanatic, holy-roller, or something like that, you know. See?
Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of... reward.

L-95   Now you know what that means? It means this, that, Moses was borned a poor boy, real poor. His father's name was Amram. His mother's name was Jochebed. And they were real poor, but they were Christians. They worked hard. They was in slavery. They had to make mud bricks, and things, for the old king. You know what? That king's daughter went down, one day, to the river where mother...

L-96 Moses' mother, Jochebed, had taken him and put him in a little raft out on the river like that. And the old crocodiles had eaten up all the little babies; and they were killing them, throwing them out into the river. But she put him right out there. And you know how she got them crocodiles away from him? She made this little--little ark she put him in, she made it out of pitch. You know what that is? It's turpentine. An old 'gator would come up, say, "Hum, a little fat Hebrew, I'll get him!" Hear him crying like that. Went over there, "Whew! What a smell! Uh!" See? See, the mother was led, how to protect her baby. So he backed off from it, he didn't want nothing to do with that.

L-97 And then he went on down the river, a little farther. And his little sister, named Miriam, followed him down the river, watched what...
