The Importance Of The Baptism Of The Holy Ghost - Rev. William Marrion Branham

480 If there be such a one that would like to swap a carnal life of ordinances, of baptisms, of sensations, of little carnal things like that, for a real heart full of real love, that—that you could walk up to your bitterest enemy, put your arms around him and say, “Brother, I’ll pray for you. I love you.” If you’d like to swap that experience of carnal things for a real experience of love, would you raise your hand to God? And say, “God, take me tonight, and make me what I should be.” I’ll pray for you, right from the pulpit here. Would you desire prayer? Raise your hands. 481 God bless you back there, sir. God bless you, brother. Someone else? God bless you, sir. “I have been in the church for years.” God bless you, sir. God bless you here, brother. God bless you back there, little lady. “I will ask God to make me peaceful.” Do you…Are you real raging? Are you out of sorts? Do you doubt? Do you toss about? Do you wonder whether It’s really right or not? When you come to Christ, do you come with a full assurance, a heart full of love? Do you walk up to Him without one fear, saying, “I know He’s my Father”? 482 And there’s no condemnation, you’ve passed from death unto Life. You know it. And you notice your life: you’re loving, you’re forgiving, you’re gentle, you’re peaceful, you’re meek. All these fruits of the Spirit accompany your life, day by day. And as soon as you do anything wrong, “Oh, my.” Just as soon as it come to your mind, “you’ve done wrong,” quickly you make it right, right then. Don’t wait another minute, go right then and make it right. If you don’t, well, you don’t have the Spirit of Christ. You might be a good woman, you might be a good man, you might be well thought of in the church, you might be well thought of in the neighborhood, but have you went on to that perfection, to that place to where you’re wholly trusting in Christ? And by this, give you the seal. “Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteous. Then God give him the seal of circumcision, as a confirmation.” 483 Now you say, “I believe God. I made a confession.” But did God give you the seal of the Holy Spirit, back on your life, of love, joy, fruits of the Spirit, to prove that you’ve been saved? If He hasn’t done that, then He hasn’t recognized your faith yet. You’ve just made a confession. He hasn’t accepted it, there is something wrong. Would you like to receive Him, then? Raise your hand, if there’s someone else, before we pray. 484 God bless you, young lady. God bless you back there, too. God bless you. All right. Someone else, just before we pray? All right. God bless you, back there, sister. God bless you, brother. God bless you, brother. God bless you, my brother. That’s right. Some ten, fifteen hands has been up. Now let’s pray. 485 Blessed Lord, at their seat, they’re finding an altar. It’s at their seat, where they’re sitting now, that You spoke to their hearts, that they’re “wrong.” It’s at their seats that You’ve put a desire in their heart, that they “long to be more like Jesus.” 486 They want their life changed. They want to be meek and humble. They want to be gentle and full of patience. They want to be longsuffering, forbearing. They want to be so Christian-like, so Christ-like, till the world will say, as they go down the street, “That man is really a Christian. That woman is really a Christian. Oh, they’re the most gentle, meekest, sweetest people!” 487 Grant it, Lord, that they will receive that experience, tonight. And may they never rest upon their church ability, upon their affiliations with any church, any denomination; or neither upon their emotions, upon any fantastic, such as emotionally, something that’s happened; may they shouted, spoke in tongues, or something else. 488 O Eternal God, let them not try to trust to get to Heaven on that, for we seen it so many times miserably fail. And You said it would fail, “Whether it’s tongues, it shall cease! Where there’s prophecy, it shall vanish. Where there’s knowledge, it shall vanish. Oh, where all these things are, even gifts, miracles of healing, they shall all be done away with. Only that Divine love shall last.” 489 God, create that in their heart, and let them know that that is the Spirit that brings forth the fruits. Do it just now, Lord, while we wait on Thee, for we ask it in Jesus’ Name. Amen. 57-0908E - Hebrews, Chapter Six #2 Rev. William Marrion Branham
