But to which of the angels said he at any times, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool? Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation? (Hebrews 1:13-14)

30 Here not long ago, a man met me; he said, “Brother Branham, I tried to search your ministry, your teaching, but there’s only thing…” and this a full Gospel brother. He said, “There’s only one thing that you make a mistake in.” He said, “That is: talking about an Angel.” Said, “That’s God.”

I said… He said, “There’s no Angels of the New Testament. Angels was of the Old Testament.” Said, “Daniel had Angels, and so forth, that followed him, and the old prophets and so forth. But in the New Testament the Holy Spirit governs and leads the Church.”

I said, “You’re correct. The Holy Spirit does. But still we have Angels which are ministering Spirits sent from God.”

And he said, “Not in the New Testament, Brother Branham.”

And I said, “Yes.” I said, “How about the Angel Gabriel with Mary?”

Said, “That was before Pentecost.”

I said, “Then you mean after Pentecost?”

He said, “Yes.”

I said, “Do you believe that Philip had the Holy Ghost?”

He said, “Sure.”

I said, “Who was It that called him away from that big revival down there and sent him out into the—the desert, Gaza, then? What was it? Was it the Holy Ghost or was It the Angel of the Lord?” It was the Angel of the Lord.

31 I said, “Who would doubt, but what that great Saint Peter had the baptism of the Holy Ghost? You believe that, don’t you? And when he was in jail that night, and they was going to behead him the next morning, and down at John Mark’s house was having a prayer meeting, Who was it come in like a big Pillar of Light and shined in on him, and loosened him up? Was it the Holy Ghost? No, sir. It was the Angel of the Lord.” That’s right.

Who would say that Saint Paul didn’t have the Holy Ghost? And out there on that ship, and it waterlogged, fourteen days and nights no moon or stars, and all hopes they’d ever be saved was gone. And he went down in the gallery to pray, and when he come back out, said, “Be of a good courage, for the Angel of God, Whose servant I am, stood by me last night, saying, ‘Fear not, Paul. Thou must be brought before Caesar, and lo, God has give all these that sail with you to you.’” Said, “Wherefore, be of a good courage. For I believe God, that’ll be just as He told me.” Amen. Paul had the Holy Ghost.

32 And look the whole Book of Revelations was wrote, sent, a Message by an Angel. “I, Jesus, have sent My Angel to signify these things which must shortly come to pass.”

Now, a true angel, you’re going to throw back Joseph Smith and so forth, to me. But, watch. It don’t work with the Scripture. A real true Angel will come and vindicate this Scripture to the dot. Yes, sir.

Notice, that John fell down and wanted to worship that Angel. And He said, “See that you do it not, for I am thy fellow, thy fellow servants, and of the prophets worship God.” A true Angel won’t be worshiped. It’s not worship of Angels; it’s a ministry of Angels that comes from God.

Now, these minor Angels comes, perhaps, it’s Angels with us, or comes to your—your humble servant. And that’s probably a minor Angel. But when Gabriel comes, brother, there’s something really on the road, something major going to happen. May… Gabriel announced the first coming of the Lord Jesus, and Gabriel will announce the second coming of the Lord Jesus. Amen.

Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and Timothy our brother, unto Philemon our dearly beloved, and fellowlabourer, And to our beloved Apphia, and Archippus our fellowsoldier, and to the church in thy house: Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. I thank my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers, Hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints; That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus. For we have great joy and consolation in thy love, because the bowels of the saints are refreshed by thee, brother. Wherefore, though I might be much bold in Christ to enjoin thee that which is convenient, Yet for love's sake I rather beseech thee, being such an one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ. (Philemon 1:1-9)

357 There was Paul going around, he might have said, “If I get a hold of that bunch, I’ll tear them to pieces, because I’m Doctor Saul. I come up under Gamaliel. I come from the Moody Bible…” or some other one, see. “I, I’m a scholar. I know what I’m talking about. I’ll tear that bunch of holy rollers to pieces. And I tell you, great holy father, you just give me the permission to go down there, and I’ll arrest every one of them noisemakers down there. All this Divine healing stuff, we’ll stop it.”

Put it in his pocket, said, “I’m on my road down.”

358 And that day, my, about eleven o’clock in the day, a—a Light shone in his face, and he fell to the earth.

359 Why? He was a predestinated Seed. God said, “I have chose him. Yeah. And I’m going to show him what great things he’ll suffer for My Name’s sake. I’ll send him to the Gentiles, and disgrace him in every way that they can be—be disgraced, but yet he’ll bear My Name.”

360 Paul went down, then, till he got all of his ecclesiastical stuff cut off of him, down at the backside of the desert, for three years and a half. Down there in Arabia, until he learned the Word, and the Word become he. And he become a prisoner; here he come back in chains of love! “All my seminary experience is gone! I’m a prisoner to Jesus Christ. Amen! Philemon, my brother, I’m a prisoner of Jesus Christ. I only can speak and say what He tells me.”

361 God needs prisoners today that will prison yourself to His will, to His Word.

362 That’s what Paul was. No matter how much intellectual he had learned, he had knowed God by revelation. Yes, sir. The intellectual went all the way out of the business then, when the revelation come; which, upon the rock the Church is built. Yes, sir. Notice, he was a predestinated Seed.

363 The Holy Ghost, alone, shows you Who He is. There is no man; they’ll make you “Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,” and everything else, out of it. See? But the Holy Ghost will reveal Him as the Lord God of Heaven made manifest, that that is, oh, Him!

I looked on my right hand, and beheld, but there was no man that would know me: refuge failed me; no man cared for my soul. I cried unto thee, O Lord: I said, Thou art my refuge and my portion in the land of the living. (Psalm 142:4-5)

97 He cared for the leper when He was here on earth. There set the leper.

98 Did you ever see a leper? Oh, I’ve seen many of them, hugged them in my arms, them white with leprosy. Looks like a seed wart turned inside out.

99 Sitting where nobody would touch him, down in the slime and dirt and filth of the street, about as low as he could be, where everybody was afraid to get around him. He was a…He was the outcast. He was cast away from the society of the city, from the society of the church, from the society of—of everything there was in the city. No one wanted nothing to do with him. If they done anything, they’d pitch him a piece of bread and let him get it out of the dirt. They wouldn’t get near him.

100 But Jesus cared for Him. He walked right down with him, and sit down. I can just see Him lay His hands upon him, and said, “I will, be thou clean.” Oh, He cared for him. When nothing else could care, He cared.

101 When nothing else will care for you, He still cares!

102 There was an old blind beggar, with his sleeves all torn, whiskers all over his face, and not nothing to eat, sit by a gate side one day, begging. And the Son of God, on His way to Calvary, to be crucified, with the sins of the world on Him; but one screamed, “Thou Son of David, have mercy on me!”

103 Would a man of that caliber, would a man, would a President, would the mayor, the governor of state, one on the police force, stop for such a thing as that? Seldom you’ll find it.

104 But Jesus cared. He cast his cares on Him, and He cared. He said, “What would you that I would do for you?”

Said, “Lord, that I might receive my sight.”

He said, “Thy faith has saved thee.” He cared for him.

105 There was an immoral woman one time, like an alcoholic or a prostitute, so immoral till the women of the city wouldn’t touch her. She was an outcast. She come out to get her water, she had to wait till noontime. She couldn’t come with decent women. Nobody would have anything to do with the woman. She had been married, and had a bunch of husbands, and living common-law then. Nobody cared for her. They were too stiff and starchy. Nobody cared!

106 But He cared for her so much that He told her the secrets of her heart, and forgive every sin. And put Something in her, that she run into the city, saying, “Come, see a Man that has told me the things that I’ve done.”

107 See, that’s what makes Him great to me. He isn’t a stuffed shirt. He was God’s grace to the people. He was God’s love expressed in human flesh. No matter how little or insignificant, He cared; immoral, drunks, alcoholics, whatever it was.

When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt. (Hosea 11:1)

12 As our Scriptures, this morning, take us back into the Old Testament, to base our thinking for the next few minutes on a historical event. And we know that history repeats itself every so often. And in my study now, I’m studying the Ante-Nicene Fathers, and can see through the Scriptures, how that we are repeating again the age that has passed by.

13 “And all Scripture is given by inspiration.” And our blessed Lord said, that, “The Scriptures cannot be broken. All the Scriptures must be fulfilled.” What a consolation that is, to give to we the people that read those Scriptures, knowing that what we have read cannot be broken. It gives us the most solid foundation to rest our faith on. And every Scripture must be fulfilled.

14 Then we find, that in the fulfilling of the Scriptures, the Word is so great till many times it has dual fulfillings, and most all of It repeats at least once.

15 For instance, in the Bible, in Matthew the 2nd chapter, It—It reads, to where It said, “Out of Egypt I have called my son.” If you’ll read that Scripture, and run the reference, you’ll find it back over, that God called His son, Jacob, out of Israel…out of Egypt. And then it also is fulfilled again when He called His Son, Jesus, out of Egypt.

And It just keeps repeating itself, because It’s inspired.

16 If I wrote you a letter, you would perhaps appreciate that letter. And if you wrote me one, I’m sure I would appreciate it. But my letter would just be to you. Therefore, after you read it once, you know all the meaning, and the letter would be insufficient anymore, anybody else. It was just designated to you; or yours to me.

17 But it’s not so with God’s Eternal Word. It’s inspired. Therefore, it’s to all peoples, in all ages, and to meet all conditions. That’s what makes It keep repeating Itself. As history swings around, It swings with the history. And It never looses Its value, because It is the Eternal Word of the Eternal God. It cannot loose Its value.

And when king David came to Bahurim, behold, thence came out a man of the family of the house of Saul, whose name was Shimei, the son of Gera: he came forth, and cursed still as he came. And he cast stones at David, and at all the servants of king David: and all the people and all the mighty men were on his right hand and on his left. And thus said Shimei when he cursed, Come out, come out, thou bloody man, and thou man of Belial: The Lord hath returned upon thee all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose stead thou hast reigned; and the Lord hath delivered the kingdom into the hand of Absalom thy son: and, behold, thou art taken in thy mischief, because thou art a bloody man. Then said Abishai the son of Zeruiah unto the king, Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? let me go over, I pray thee, and take off his head. And the king said, What have I to do with you, ye sons of Zeruiah? so let him curse, because the Lord hath said unto him, Curse David. Who shall then say, Wherefore hast thou done so? (2 Samuel 16:5-10)

372 He said, another time, one time, to a man, “You’re after My Own heart.” A man after His Own heart, David. You remember that? [Congregation says, “Amen.”—Ed.] The Spirit of God in David. David, a rejected king. Always the anointed is rejected. David, the rejected king, went up the hill when his own people… I’ll preach this for this next three minutes. When David’s own people should be…His own kind dethroned him, his own son, and run him off the throne.

373 David went down there, and even one of them come out there spitting on him, that anointed king. And this little old guy come along there, crippled up in his doctrine. The Bible said he was crippled, you know. And he went along, spitting on that king. Watch Christ. Spitting on him; that messenger by his side, (an angel, representing), pulled a sword, said, “Should the head of that dog stay on; spit on that king?” An angel said, “I’ll strike him dead.”

374 David said, “Put up your sword. I have to do this.” Went up on top of the hill, of Jerusalem, looked back down, a rejected king, and he wept.

375 Eight hundred years from there, the Son of David, the Spirit that was in David, in a portion, stood on the same hill; a rejected King, being spit on and made fun of. That right? [Congregation says, “Amen.”—Ed.] I can imagine God said…The Angels walking along there with Him, when He went up Calvary like that. “Shall the head of that dog stay on him?”

“Let him alone.” Oh, my!

376 There’s coming a time. But what about David when he come back? The story changed. David come riding in triumph. This fellow run, scream for mercy. Sure.

377 Let them alone. He’ll come some day, in power. Then they, was laughing, will turn the other way. That’s right. Just let them alone.

Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. (2 Timothy 4:2-4)

137 But today they don’t want to hear a Message like that. The people don’t want to hear That. They want to be tickled in their ears. Exactly what the Holy Spirit told me the day I laid that cornerstone there, said to:

Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season;…

For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall…heap for themselves together teachers, having itching ears;

And…shall be turned from the truth, to fables.

Said, “When the vision leaves, you read Second Timothy 4.” Said, “Don’t forget, Second Timothy 4!” And when the vision left me, standing right there on 7th Street, a nineteen-year-old boy standing there, the Voice of God spoke out in the room, and He said, “Second Timothy 4.” That’s exactly what it’s turned to be. See? “The time will come when they’ll not endure sound doctrine.”

138 People want something. The Pentecostals want something that can pat them on the back, and let them live the way they want to. And they can play the piano at forty beats per second, and jump up-and-down, and dance about it; and women do the way they want to, and man the same way. The Presbyterian, Methodist, Lutheran, and Baptist, there is a many a sincere person in all those organizations. That’s exactly right. But that system has got them so bound down, till they think as long as they belong to that church, and their name is upon those books, that they’re Heaven bound. Your name on a book here on earth won’t mean that to God. [Brother Branham snapped his finger—Ed.] Your name has got to be written in the Lamb’s Book of Life, by the Blood of Jesus Christ, that your sins are forgiven. That’s right.

139 But they want that kind. That’s the kind of pastors they want in. They don’t want nothing else. And when God in this last days has shook every Divine gift that’s recommended in the Bible, every gift that Jesus Christ promised, every gift, and every sign, and every end-time sign. Everything that was promised in this Bible, as far as I can see, myself, has already been shook before the nation, and she plunges on towards hell as hard as she can go. Tell them? They’ll run on, anyhow.

Let me just get a few more Scriptures here before closing. All right. Oh, “Set forth for Eternal destruction,” is what they are, the Bible says.

This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. (2 Timothy 3:1-5)

87 Don’t think you can exhaust His goodness. Could you imagine, little fish, a half-inch long, out in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, saying, “I better drink sparingly of this water; I might run out”? That would be just as foolish as to try to think you could ever exhaust God’s goodness. “Ask abundantly that your joys might be full.” Believe God for anything He promised. It’s yours.

88 The prophets of the Old Testament, Daniel and the others, said, “In the last days, that, the people that know their God shall do exploits.” That’s a promise.

89 When the intellectual looks at the exploits, they’ll say, “Oh, that’s psychology. That’s mental telepathy. It’s a working of a devil.”

90 But the Holy Ghost will answer back, “Amen, that’s the Truth,” the right discernment.

91 They promised it. Jesus promised it. Jesus said, “The works that I do shall you do also, even greater than this shall you do, for I go to My Father.”

92 Paul promised, that, “In the last days,” by the Holy Spirit, that, “the church would fall away,” millions of them. “There will come a falling away, for men will be heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God; trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, and despisers of those that are good,” not the right discernment.

“Oh,” you say, “that’s the communists.”

93 That’s so-called Christian. Watch the next verse. “Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof.” No spiritual discernment.

94 When you got spiritual discernment and the Holy Ghost is upon you, you have spiritual discernment. It says, “Amen,” to every promise of God.

95 Paul said those days would be. We got it. It’s here. It’s on us. And we look and see it. We hear it from everywhere.

96 And what do we do? It ought to draw us together. The Bible said, “Assembling ourselves together, and that the more when you see that Day approaching.” It ought to be one revival after another, and bonfires of God’s glory built in every church and every place. A great coming-together, where all the churches, “With one heart and one accord, assemble themselves together,” and forget their man-made theology, and cry out to God for spiritual power and spiritual discernment. That’s the hour we need.

Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier. (2 Timothy 2:3-4)

26 Someone asked me, some time ago, “Shall we seek our gifts now for our ministries?” Some Methodist brethren who had just received the Holy Ghost.

27 I said, “No. Don’t do that. When you do, then God can’t use you.” I said, “The only thing to do, is just go ahead being a Christian. If God has called you, He’ll place you just exactly where you belong.”

28 Usually, those who seek and try to get things, if God would give them something, they’d, more or less, be a stuffed shirt. Usually, the man that God calls, is the man that’s trying to run from Him, if anything; Moses and Paul, and different ones, trying to get away from the call.

29 But we find here that, God, in spite of all the failure that Moses had done, He still had His hand on him. And He called him to go, do His service, called him to his commission. And what a consolation that must have been to Joshua, when he heard God say, “As I was with Moses, so will I be with you.”

30 Although, if I’m trying, and I fail, God won’t leave me. I never have much confidence in anybody that’s too afraid to do anything. I would rather be found a failure than too lazy to try.

31 One time it was said that the Ballard and Ballard Flour Company hired a man, and he was going to sign his name, and the man had no eraser on the end of his pencil. And Mr. Ballard said to him, said, “Why haven’t you got eraser?”

He said, “I don’t make mistakes.”

32 He said, “Then I can’t use you. Because, if you make mistakes, you…You don’t make mistakes, you won’t do nothing.” That’s true.

33 God don’t hold you responsible for your mistakes. He holds you responsible for your willful sin. “He that sins wilfully, after he has received the knowledge of the Truth.” But a man that’s going to do something, is going to blunder, he’s going to fall. He’s going to make mistakes. But if he’s really Divinely called, and God in his heart, he’ll rise again.

34 Used to be, coming to the church here, years ago, and they may be here this morning, a little man and his wife. They used to sing a song that thrilled me. Goes something like this:

Forgive me, Lord, and try me one more time,

I’ll be Yours if You’ll be mine;

If I fall or if I fail, let me rise and try again,

Forgive me, Lord, and try me one more time.

35 I like that. For, any good soldier is apt to get wounded or hurt. But if he’s still a soldier, and got a purpose, and something to fight for, he’ll rise and try again. And any good soldier of the Cross will do the same thing.

For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. (2 Timothy 1:7)

40 My little girl asked me the other night, she said…Or, it was little Joseph, he said, “Daddy, is there such a thing as a witch?”

I said, “Oh, sure.”

41 He said, “Does she have a long nose, and she rides on a broom at nighttime?”

42 I said, “No. She has a painted face, and rides in a Cadillac to a—a cocktail party.” That’s the new modern version of it.

43 And he said, “Is that a witch?” I don’t know whether I should have told him that or not, because every time on the street he sees one, he says, “Daddy, there’s a witch. Isn’t it?” Well, I suppose that…

44 You know, they used to have old Charlie Barleycorn. Some of you older people remember him, with the hat pulled down over his ears. And even a crow would be scared of him, Charlie Barleycorn. Oh, he’s changed since prohibition went out. But now he’s in a little bumper, setting in every icebox, and he’s the most popular fellow in the city. But he is still the same damnable thing that sends man’s soul to hell, and young people to the insane institution; and has got an age up here of rock-and-roll idiots and beatniks, and juvenile delinquency, till it’s become insanity. Even till our schools can’t touch them; we lost twenty thousand teachers last year.

45 Why? They are searching for Something. They are looking for It, and the church has failed to give It to them. The reason they do that, because they were made that way, to search.

46 Finally, what does it end up in? Murder and suicide. Man who thinks that he’s doing something when he gets a date with his neighbor’s wife, or would break up some home or some woman. You think you’re getting by with something, but finally you’ll end up with a pistol to the side of your head, and blow your brains out, or jump from some scaffold somewhere, or kill yourself, take poison, dope, or something, and go into a miserable condition, and die and go to a devil’s hell, because you’ve rejected the—the real Cure.

47 We got a cure. Calvary is that cure. Christ is the cure. And He is the only cure, the only foundation, the only way. There is things that you can get from Christ that you can’t get from nowhere else. Christ is the way; not a way, It’s the way. The church is fine, we love them, but the church is not the way. Jesus is the way! Can’t cast your cares upon the church, the church has no salvation. It can only point you to Jesus, Who is the only salvation. He is the Way, the Truth, the Life. The only way to the Father is through Jesus! The only Comforter, the only One Who can, knows how to care for us.

48 For, we can’t even care for one another. I read in the Scripture some time ago, where It said, “Not discerning the Lord’s Body.” And I thought, what a statement! Found in First Corinthians 11.

…not discerning the Lord’s body.

And for this cause many are sick and weakly among you…

But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. And having food and raiment let us be therewith content. But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. (1 Timothy 6:6-10)

107 Not long ago, out in the West, I was having a meeting. I went home with an old rancher for dinner. Oh, and some of his people had been healed. He had give me a check there that would have bought me forty-five of these tabernacles, if I’d have wanted it. I said, “I don’t want your money.”

108 Howard, my brother, was with me, said, “Bill, why didn’t you take that check?”

109 I said, “I don’t want his money.” Let me live day by day. Not money I’m after. I’m one to serve the Lord Jesus.

110 He stood there when that woman was healed out yonder, the Melikians, in California. You seen it here in the Louisville paper. When they come here, two of those agents, and brought a million, five hundred thousand dollars, and offered it to me when I lived in this two-room shack. I said, “I don’t even want to look at it. No, sir. No, sir.” The love of money is the root of all evil. Keep away from that stuff.

111 This rancher walked out of there, he said, “Reverend Branham?”

I said, “Yes, sir.”

He said, “You see them mountains over yonder?”

I said, “Yes, sir.”

“How far you think they are away?”

I said, “I don’t know.”

112 Said, “They’re eighty miles.” Said, “I own plumb to that, and plumb beyond that. It’s my grazing ground.”

I said, “My, that’s wonderful.”

113 He said, “I see down in there. See that city?” He said, “I own the bank in that city; I own all that ground down around there, and I own this way.” Oh, all he owned!

114 Stopped, in his little station wagon. I looked at him, very nice man. I laid my hand on his shoulder, I said, “Brother, I want to ask you a question.”

He said, “All right.”

115 I said, “Look right up This a-way. How much do you own up That way?” See?

116 He said, “Brother Branham, I’m afraid I don’t own anything.”

117 I said, “There’s where my treasures are laying now. I don’t have nothing down here. ‘But a rent tent, or a cottage, why should I care? They’re building a palace for me over there! Of rubies and diamonds, and silver and gold, His coffers are full and has riches untold.’” Yes, sir. That’s where the riches lays, up There. And where your treasures is, your heart is also.
