If you bought my ticket…I’m fixing to drive home just in a little bit after the services, so I can get the wife and babies and be in Zion by Tuesday. But now…That’s about a six, seven hundred miles’ trip, right quick. Now, if you’d say, “Brother Branham, I have an airplane ticket laying out here for you. You drive down—go down by plane.” Well, if I never go…And you have taken your money and purchased that airplane ticket, but yet, it’ll never do me no good, no matter how much the airlines say, “Here it is. Your name’s here, you’re ready.” Until I accept that ticket, it’ll never do me no good. Is that right? No matter how sincere you are, yet it won’t do me any good, till I accept it. Now, your healing is—is just as complete as the airplane ticket, and more so than what the—the…Your healing is more complete than the airplane ticket would be complete, if you’d paid for it. Is that right? Jesus, when He died, He settled the sin question. And in there, He—He did make an atonement for your sickness. “He was wounded for our transgressions; with His stripes we are healed.” That’s as plain as I know to see…to report it to you.
