Now, that’s…means a whole lot to that woman. Now, to some of us brothers we might think, “Oh, the silly woman.” But—but it’s not silly to her; she wants to know. Now, about putting hair in what was it, pig tails or something another? I’m sorry. I—I didn’t…It…I’m sorry. Pin curls. Excuse me. Pin sets, pigtails! That’s w...

Go right ahead and get married. See? Go right on just like if you was going to live for another hundred years here on earth. Just go right on; keep your heart set on Christ, not your hearts on these things of the world, but on Christ. See? Go right on; get married, children. God bless you in your weddings.

Now, there’s a good question. Now, the baptism with the Holy Spirit is a definite experience that a person must receive. Now let me kind of clear that up just for a minute. See? Now, many people have the—the idea…I believe it’s twisted. And maybe right here to the church and to the church that’s listening, there might...

Now, a good question. And the man is sincere. His wife, his companion that’s a part of him…May I add something here to that? My brethren, I say this in the Name of the Lord. One of these days, the Lord willing, I think I’ll just go ahead and make that tape on Marriage and Divorce (see?), bring it right here at the tabe...

Well, Sister, I know this means a lot to you, and it means a lot for me for you to place your confidence I’d tell you the truth. Now remember, the Bible said, “When you adorn, do not adorn with—with costly jewels, and pearls, and all kinds of wearing of jewelry, but let that be the adorning of a peace, and quiet, and m...

The Bride, when the earth explodes…The time of the Rapture will be the awakening of the dead and the get-togethering of the living, for…with the living, for the Rapture to take place. Now, but the Bride…Now, see, one of them is a Rapture way back here before the Millennium. And when the earth burns up is back here afte...

No, Sister, you are not subject to such a person. No indeedy. For this cause you’ll leave everything and cleave to God. Now, the thing…If you want…that man wants to live with you, and you be…stay a Christian…But if he’s going to make you wear shorts, cut your hair, and do all these other things, and ungodly places, you...

Well, in First Timothy 3:2, if you want to put that down, and Titus 1 to 6 (I wrote that one down), I want you to read that for this question. See? If a man—if a man desires the office of a bishop or a preacher (something another in church), he’s got to have just one wife. That’s right! A minister. Now, that’s First Ti...

That’s more of a question. Now, she said…Now, what it is here, or who…she said, “My husband,” so I suppose it would have to be the woman that said this. Now, she lost her first love. See? She—she got cold in the Spirit. Now, Sister, maybe ’cause you still come to church and do what’s right, you haven’t lost your salvat...

Well, my dear Sister, there’s only one thing that you have done which is right. You was involved, I guess, or somebody that you know of was involved, in a wrong act, that you taken another woman’s companion and had a social act. And when you did, there you fell from your grace. Then you repented, and you could not repe...

Well, could you imagine a mother giving birth to a baby and not knowing it? She’d have to be unconscious not to know it. Neither can you receive the Holy Ghost without knowing it. There’s something takes place in you. See? There’s something that changes you. Your whole system, your whole spiritual system is made new ag...

I don’t know the lady, but I just feel if you’re here, lady, that here is your trouble. You have let something happen to you that’s made you nervous, because being in white sands represents “purity and righteous.” And you’re just letting Satan put one over on you. Your dream proved that there’s nothing wrong. You’re on...

Well, that’s a good question, very good. But I am not the Son of man, but a son of man. There’s quite a difference. Jesus Christ was the Son of man, the Son of God, the Son of man, the Son of David. Now, the reason that question probably was asked this person or been said, because people regard me as a seer, which I h...

That’s a good one, isn’t it? Yes, sir! If…It must be watched very, very close. If you’ll notice in First Corinthians 14:29, you who wants to put it down…See? The—the person who wrote this never signed their name; they just said, “God bless you.” See? In First Corinthians 14:29 we find out that any gift in the church ha...

No, it was Jesus. The fourth Man was the…like the Son of God. I don’t think it was the prophet, ’cause he was in the lions’ den; but I—I wouldn’t believe that Daniel was in the fiery furnace. I—I can’t hardly…Now, there you could be right, but then that’s just my opinion.

Brother, I’m…you’re a theologian, I’m not. But I’d like to say this, that Jesus said, “Whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost it shall not be forgiven him.” In other words, to put it with the rest of the Scripture, “All manner of sin shall be forgiven man, but blaspheming the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto me...

Well, I—I—I—I don’t know about that. I can’t say. But I—I just have this feeling. Let me say this: I believe, if I was a—a woman and I knowed that my husband was healthy and had a good job, working, I believe it would be a—a great pleasure to me to stay home, take care of my children and make the…and—and—and take care...

Well now, Brother or Sister (they don’t sign their name), but ever who it is, now, if you’re trying to sell your property and you’ve done what you…You want to sell it and probably for to buy some more or whatever you want to do, I don’t know. If your objective is right, you’re trying buy a home…If you got children or s...

I done went through that. Sure, I don’t care, just keep it long. See? I don’t…I know you’re…I don’t mean that to be “jokey” with you girls. See? That’s sincere. You—you—you want to know, and you’re asking me. You got confidence in me or you wouldn’t be asking me that. Now, I got confidence in you, Sister, that what I’d...

Now, I think I just went through that, didn’t I? “And when that which is perfect has come, that which is in part shall be done away with.” Paul said, “Though I speak with tongue of man and angels, and I do all these things here…But when that which is perfect is come…” Now, is there anything perfect but God? No, sir! Is...

I suppose—I suppose this is a man; I—I hope it is. Well now, some women do that. Sure. I was going up on the bus one time when I was state game warden here. Going up here…I was setting there, and a man was talking like that, had a welder’s cap on, and I was just talking to him. And he was going ahead smoking a cigarett...

The old Bible is always in effect, and every word that God says is in effect. Yes, sir! Only thing it does from the new Bible to the old Bible, it just magnified. Jesus said, “You have heard them say, ‘Thou shalt not commit adultery’ (you had to be in the act); but I say unto you, whosoever looketh upon a woman to lust...

Again, just any way you want to. First Timothy 2:9. See? “Let the women adore themselves in modest apparel.” I want to—I want to wear mine pleasing to God. (God bless you, Sister dear.) Thank you. May God bless you. Pray for us. And the person signs her name. Sharon, sure, Sis! God bless you. Wear it just long as it’s...

No! See, everything will be finished for the Gentile church when the Bride is taken from the earth. The Spirit of God leaves the earth: “He that’s filthy is filthy still; he that’s righteous is righteous still; he that’s holy is holy still.” In other words the sanctuary becomes smoky, where the—the Attorney stands to p...

Sure he should. He’s the one man that will work, is a Christian. “Pay tithes to an individual?” It depends on who the individual is. See? That’s right. In Hebrews 7, the first time tithings was talked about in—in a stand that we…Wait a minute, I believe, number two question. No! Uh-uh. No! For Brother…Said, “Two quest...

Saved? Why sure, I believe the child could be…The child can’t help what’s been done. That is true. But I…About going in the Rapture…Saved, I’d say, “Yes.” But in the Rapture it’s a predestinated seed that goes in the Rapture. And I can’t believe that adultery was a predestinated seed. You understand? See? I believe the...

Suit yourself, either one. I sure love you, I don’t care where you go, what you do. But now, as advice, I believe I’d come to Jeffersonville. If you’re going to move anyhow, I’d come to Jeff. I believe I’m here more than I am in Arizona. That’s fine.

No! No! Don’t get that in your mind, brother. Keep on building on the house. Keep doing everything you can. Just keep on going till you’re called away. See?

I don’t know exactly what you mean by that. If you mean sinners like out in the…You worship God everywhere. But I think if we did, how we going to have church, ’cause the sinners come right into the church and set down by the side of the Christian. Don’t never separate yourself from anything but sin, not the sinner. Ge...

No, sir! No, sir! That’s your husband. You’ll drive him farther away from God than ever by doing that. See? That’s right, Brother, Sister. You married him; he’s yours, and you’re his.

Sure they’re married. As long as they take that vow, they’re married. Just like a boy, if a boy promises a girl to marry her under good faith, he’s obligated to that girl. He’s just as good as married her. The only thing the law does, is give you a—a bill of rights to live together to keep from being common-law husband...

Well, how—how do you…I hope I haven’t said anything that would cause you to believe such as that. Have I? If I have, forgive me! I don’t mean…See? Don’t just presume those things. Keep right on going, preaching, having jail service, getting everybody, and don’t… Looky here. The Seventh Day Adventists here not long ago...

Now, if you notice, it said, “As it was” (you see?) in the days when Jonah was in the belly three days and three nights. It’s within three days and three nights, within that three days and three nights, because you can’t make the Scripture lie. The prophet said, “I will not suffer my holy One to see corruption, neither...

How? I don’t know. I couldn’t tell you. The question is, “Can they be in the Rapture?” Divorced, each one of them divorced, each one of them has a living companion, then they married again, both of them married again. And now, one that…This woman has a living husband; this man has a living wife. And now, they’ve got ch...

No, just the remnant, just the remnant, not all born again believers. The Bible said, “And the rest of the dead lived not for a thousand years,” and then they was raised and separated, the sheep from the goats. Not all borned again will go in the…according to Scripture.

John 14:26: He will…“When the Holy Ghost is come (see?), He will show you things to come.” See? He’ll be a…He’ll perfect it; “man-mades” won’t do it; and He is the Word. When He the Holy Ghost is come, He will identify Himself in you with the Scripture. And that is the true sign that the Holy Spirit is in you, because...

How young? Just let you be the judge of that; if you’re a Christian. A little girl or any little bitty kid, I imagine, I don’t know, I…Only thing I know, the Bible says it’s an abomination for a woman to wear a garment that’s—that pertains to a man. See? “A woman,” didn’t say, “a child.” But now, I just…You just suit y...

I believe, pardner, Sister, whoever it is, you’re—you’re wrong there. I never said gather yourselves on the Trumpets. I said Israel gathered on the Trumpets, not the Gentile Bride. No, no! The Trumpets, the sounding of the Seven Trumpets was to gather Israel (how many know that?) from all over the…Yeah, not the…No, no!...

Well now, Jesus said, “Whosoever receive a prophet in the name of a prophet, receives a prophet’s reward.” A prophet’s reward is to be a friend with the prophet. Whosoever receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man, receives a righteous man’s reward. Is that right? And if they want to know what a prophet’s...

Well, Brother or Sister, it’s hard for me to understand it, myself. But only thing I can say is this: that the Marriage Supper comes before the Millennium. Now, see, somebody, I know somewhere in here has got a question on that, that said, “Brother Branham, you’re—you’re wrong on the seventy weeks of Daniel. There wil...

You know, that’s a problem. See? The thing of it is, that you are—you are…maybe have to make a living. But you know what that would do for me? That’d make me so nervous I couldn’t…I—I—that…You might be able to put up with it, but that little bunch of “Rickys” in there carrying on like that, and “Rickettas,” I’d—I’d—it’...
