TO A WORLDC0NFERENC:E

b y G o r d o n L i n d s ay

I t was eight oclock in N ew York City an d.th e hour of dc-parture ,for delegates to the World Pentecostal Conference a cLondon- aving been set at midnight, June 24- as draw-ing nigh. Approximately sixty persons were waiting to havetheir baggage checked preparatory to being taken to the In-ternational Airport at Idlewild, Long IsIand. The airport per-sonnel informed us that we were 1 5 0 0 poundsoverweight and consequently much baggagehad to be left behind. Because of the busstrike, passengers were taken to the1 airportin taxicabs by drivers who wove their wayswiftly thrbugh the mad traffic of Americaslargest city.

Shortly after midnight we strapped our-selves in the chartered four-motored FLYI NGTIGER. The pilot taxied out to the runway,tested the motors, and after a united prayer webraced ourselves for the anticipated take-off.Then came the anti-climax. The stewardess in-formed us that due to mechanical difficulties,we would be subject to a slight delay. Bythe time we had evacuated the plane, the cowl-ing had already been taken off and mechanicswere giving the motors an overhauling. T heslight delay turned out to be seven hours.By then some of the passengers were skepticalof the planes ability to make the flight insafety. Only after a speech by the captain whoassured them that all would be well, weresome of the more timid passengers prevailedupon to board. At length the last one boardedand presently we were in the air, and on ourway toward Gander, Newfoundland.

Because the plane was overloaded, the cap-tain of the FL YI NG TI G ER decided we couldnot carry enough gas for a non-stop trans-atlantic crossing, and so plans were made tostop at Iceland. Although this li ttle countrynear the Arctic Circle was far out of the way,most of the passengers were pleased that theywere able to visit this island of the north,which is populated by descendants of the Vik-ings. On .the way to Iceland we were per-mitted a rare view of the Midnight Sun. Al -though we were a trifle south of the Arcticcircle, we gained acouple of degrees becauseof our altitude.

At noon we were in Amsterdam, andshortly after, we crossed the English Channelarriving at the Northolt airport of London atabout three in the afternoon.The following evening, the World Pente-costal Convention opened in Westminster Cen-tral Hall. There were 700 delegates registeredfrom countries abroad, with the main dele-gations from America and Sweden. Preachingwas to be done mainly in English with BSwedish interpreter on the platform. Inter-preters for other nationalities were scatteredthrough the audience. Some sixty flags hang-ing in the balcony, reflected the cosmopolitannature of the gathering. The evening serviceof the first day of the conference consisted ofthe introducing of leading ministers from

wedding ceremony was performed by an Eng-lish vicar in St. hfargarets Church which ad-.joins the famous Westminster Abbey. TheArch-bishop of Canterbury kindly granted per-mission for the use of the church, which ,ordi-narily is used for nuptial ceremonies of Eng-lish nobility. I t was a very convenient loca-tion, for St. Margarets is just across fromWestminster Central Hall where the WorldConvention is being held. Incidentally, theseedifices together with the Parliament building,and Westminster Abbey, almost completelysurround Parliament Square-perhaps theworlds most famous square.A f t e r t h e w e d d i n g , t h e y oum g c o u p l e ,w en t

was walking on air , and all I could do wasweep, my heart was so full of gratitude.My wife began to mend immediately andher recovery was amazingly fast . As soon asshe returned from the hospital , we beganto make immediate plans to leave our parishand let God lead us into the f ield to whichHe had called us.My Fi rs t Vision. One night, soon af te rthis, God gave me a marvelous vision.I was awakened out of my sleep by thesound of a multitude of voices s inging. Thesong they were s inging was in a minor re -f ra in , and was a plea for Jesus to helpthem. It was not a song of tr iumph and vic-tory , but a song of sadness and pleading f orhelp.As I sa t upright in my bed l is tening, apanoramic picture swept before my eyes.I beheld a hug e s ig ht o f a nation of peoplein desperate need. These people showed themar ks o f pain a nd suffering and intense ag-ony. A man walked up to me with his sickwife in his arms. She was the very s ight ofdeath. H er fac e wa s distorted and lined withag ony . T he man sa id , P lease pray f or mywife t ha t God ,?ill heal he r, fo r God hassent you to us.When I saw their despair , I wept withpity for them and said , My friend, I wishI could do something for you, but the powerI onEe had is gone and I can do nothing foryou.The mans countenance dropped, and ingreat sadness he said , If you cant help us,then we shall surely perish.Quickly, I realized that since God hadentrus ted me, a t one t ime , wi th the g i f t o fhealing , I would be held responsible at thed ay of judgment for not fulf i l l ing the needo f the people in the calling which God hadgiven me.Power Returns. In desperation I criedunto God and said, Please,-dear God, trustme with th is gift jus t one more t ime that Imight minister to these poor and needypeople.God heard that cry of my hear t , and im-mediately I felt my body surge w ith healingpower and I placed my hand upon this poor,sick woman. She was instantly healed andjumped from her husbands ar ms every whitwhole.Immediately there appeared a blind manstanding before me. I placed my hand upbnhis eyes and he went away seeing. T he lamepassed before me and leaped for joy. Allmanner of s ickness and diseases were curedin a moment.A New S ong as Vision Ends. In this vi-s ion, i t seemed I had been ministering tothese afflicted people for hours, when I no -ticed the mournful song that had been sungby this gr eat m ultitude had faded away, andfrom the opposite side came a heavenly an-them of joy and gladness . I looked wherethe s ick and aff l icted came from and sawthe number had diminished to a mere hand-ful.From the opposite side, I saw these samepeople, but now, instead of showing themarks of pain and agony, there was jo y an dsunshine written on thei r faces . They w ererejoicing and clapping their hands as theysang a new song. Rather then the song inminor re f ra in , it w as a song of tr iumph, vic-tory , and joy , and the ir f ac es w ere rad ia t ingwith gladness.The voice then spoke to me, in the vision,and said, These afflicted I am sending youto, for my Blood was shed for them. Takethis message to the nations and be thoufaithful unto death and I will g ive thee acrown of life.

I L eave My Chuich. We had already madeplans to leave my church, and I shall neverforget how dif f icult i t was to sever thoseties which held us to the l i t t le church weloved so well . The parting made our heartsto bleed, but we knew God was in it al l andwe wanted to do His will . We went to LakeCharles, Louisiana, and conducted a tw oweeks revival. God blessed in a very sweetway, but the g if t d id not return. From therewe went to several other places .M y Second Vision. Then one night I w asawakened out of a deep sleep by a presencethat entered my room. The g lory of th eLord began to f i l l the room, and I knew Iwas about to experience another supernatur-al vis i ta t ion , as the g lory o f th e L ord beg anto charge the atmosphere of that bedroom.The fear of the Lord came upon me and Ibegan t o quake.As I looked up, I saw the ce i l ing o f thatdark room begin to fade away, and in theheavens appeared a light slowly descend-ing. My eyes followed this glorious sightuntil i t had come righ t into my room, andas i t d id, my bedroom became as l ig ht as day.Words cannot describe this marvelousheavenly light. Where my room had beencompletely dark just a few minutes before,i t now was bril l iantly l ighted. Ev en the de-signs o f th e wallpaper could be plainly seenand every detail of the room was clearlyvisible, and nowhere could any shadowsbe seen.A Pillow Descends. Following this light,there appeared a pillow coming down fromheaven. As I looked at the pil low, fearstruck my heart and I turned my headf rom the s ig ht o f i t . I knew upon thatpillow would be revealed to my eyes a sightt h a t I would fear to look at .Then I began t o feel the pillow rest uponmy chest . A s I did, I cautiously and slowlyturned my head. There lying upon thatpil low was the l i feless form of our young- ,est child, my little boy. Yes, this man-childwhich we had prayed for, God had given us.I then heard a voice saying, This childwhich I have given thee, wilt thou give backt o m e ? I was stunned for a moment, but I realizedGod was speaking and I must answer atonce. So without any further delay , I said ,Yes, dear Lord, i f you want this child , youmay take him.God Provides a R am. I f e l t s i c k a f t e r Isaid that, and asked God to g ive me grace.I felt l ike a knife had pierced through myheart . It was not easy to g ive up my child .I would ra th er .die a thousand deaths thando that.I awoke my wife and told her about i t . Weboth felt s ick in our hearts and very sad.Each day we expected to see that l i t t le fel-low be taken away from us, and our heartswere heavy. Thank God, I am able to say ,at the t ime o f th is wr i t ing , we s t i l l haveour little boy. I firmly believe with all myheart that God was t ry ing me even as Hedid Abraham of old. God asked Abraham toof f er I saac as a sacrifice, and when theLord saw Abraham was will ing to do that,God prepared a ram for the sacrif ice andIsaac was spared. I f ee l so g r a t e f u l t o m yheavenly Father because He prepared aram for me and spared my litt le Isaac.God Brin gs Ba ck the Gif t . God spoke tome that same evening and told me the g if t

would return and to begin to pr epare myselff o r it. I immediately began to wait uponGod, even as the one hundred and twentydid in the upper room ju st before th e day ofPentecost . With antic ipation I began tolook f or i t and to expec t it.(Continued o n P a g e 18)

We told the missionaries to getthree 3f each tribe and brin gthem in. Andwhen we go t to the platform, the first oneswho came we re Mohammedans. Some of

them were very staunch Hindus. They had ared dot between their eyes. They had beenblessed a t th e temple.. They ar e hard todo anyth ing with. Thousands of them satin the audience, and their chiefs, many ofthem were around watching.One of the first ones tha t came was a manwith a crippled hand. The ange l of th e Lordspoke and said, He received that from afall; ,he fell and hit a rock and hur t his hand.He has been crippled for a long time, buthes healed now! When the interpreter re-peated it, he leaped into the a ir and wa s per:fectly whole.The next was a Hindu woman. She wastold all about her life and what was wrongwith her. The Hindus began to scream.

They believe in reincarnation and thoughtthe spirit of some,H indu god had come backto mortals. ,Brother Baxt er had to go tothe microphone t o stop that. It was a thrill-ing time.stomach (caused by the bad diet) came tothe platform. He was cross-eyed. The angelof the Lord told all about his life and hisparents. The parents nodded it was right.The chiefs were convinced that somethingwas going on th at th ey didnt know any-thing about. The little lad was standingthere and the missionary brought him realclose to me. Then I saw th at God had madehim well, for his little eyes came just asstraight as they could be.

A young British doctor who was sitting on the platform went and picked th e little boyup. I heard Brother Baxter and BrotherBosworth tryi ng to keep th e man back. Thedoctor cried, Preacher, c an I ask you some-thing? I said, Yes, sir. He asked, D O youstraighten everybodys eyes? I said, Ididnt straighten his. But, th e dortor said,His eyes are now.straight. I was the onewbo brought him here. The boy was piti-ful ly cross-eyed, b ut he is well now. Doeseveryone that is cross-eyed get healed thatyou pray for? I replied. No s ir, it i s ac-cording to the patients faith in God. Helooked at the little boy again, and tearsrolled down his cheeks. He walked up t o th eplatform and said, I, too, want to acceptJesus Christ as my personal Savior then.Some of the missionaries took him over tothem. When I was leaving Johannesburglater, he cried to me, Brother Branham!Brother Branham! I turned around to himand he threw his a rms around me an d cried,I believe I am going to be a preacher! Ireplied, I beliexe t ha t God is going t o makeone out of you.

Next coming to the platform was a manthey had to lead by a chain. He had a collaron and he walked like a dog on his hands andI his feet.. No one could do anything for him.God showed me a t that moment tha t he hadbeen th at way since a child. His hips werevery high. I cant ell how th e poor ma nlooked. You can imagine his condition andappea rance with no clothes on. Then avision came before me th at he would be madewell. I said to the missionary, Stand him

up. Th ey stared at me. I said again, Standhim up. They began to pull on him andthe man stood up! He began to fall, then hestood straight and looked around. People be-gan t o jump to their feet and scream.After the people had seen the mightyworkings of God and Brother Baxter andBrothe r Bosworth preaching t he Gospel withsuch force, it was impossible for them toget by without receiving the breath ofChrist. When the alt ar call was made, it.was estimated that 30,000 stood to theirfee t and accepted Christ at one time. I askedHOW many of you ar e ready to believetha t Jesus Christ is the Immortal God? Areyou ready to throw down your idols andare you Mohammedans ready to renounceall your superstitions? Which of yourpriests in the temple could give this manperfect soundness? Which of the idols th atsome of you pack in your hands, could healthis man? There isnt any power in them.But Jesu s Chris t th e Son of God, throug hfaith in his Name, has made this man standhere whole today! Now if youre really sin-cere and you really mean this from the bot-tom of your heart, let all th e natives breaktheir idols and let the Mohammedans washth e red dot from their eyes.It was like a dust storm when they broketheir idols and took their aprons and washedth e red dots from their eyes. They raisedtheir hands and tears were rolling down,

the ir cheeks. Hallelujah! Brother you cancall i t fanaticism if you want to.There were a group of ministers who cameto me five or six years ago and saidBrothe r Bran ham, you a re crazy. Youllnever get that program over. I replied,

me. If He said, D o it it will be done.Standing there with th e clergyman the otherday, I said, The thing that you calledfanaticism has brought more people toChrist than millions of dollars spent on aprogram without th e power of God. Thatsright. Jesus Christ knew it would takethese things to convert the heathen. Youand I read and understand, and faith comesby hearing. But a heathen has got to see apower. He will serve a God of power. Pauknew that 1900 years ago. Out in th e landswhere he ministered, he knew tha t it took aGod of power to convert the heathen. .TheLord is just the same today. I believe thehour is approaching when Jesus Christ wilcome again. Tha t is the reason tha t thegospel is spreadin g and thousands and thou-sands are getting saved at one time. WhenI think of that I want to sing AMAZINGGRACE. God has done gr ea t and might yworks for us today!

A lady in America once said to me,Brother Branham, there is hardly any useto come to your meetings. You ju st throwou t a few cards, and perhaps only twenty-five in a night get prayed for. There hasalways been a confusion in the minds ofpeople concerning this. Over in Africa thepeople understood right away. Just as soonas they saw a few miracles done, that wasenough for them. The only thing tha t weasked them to do, was to stand and repeatthe prayer that we were praying and meani t from their hea rts, and accept the Lord asthe ir Savior and Healer. Thousands of peo-ple testified to their healing as a result ofthis mass prayer.

On the way back from Africa I began toquestion, Lord wh at mus t I do? Must I staylonger in a city to ge t to all the people whowant to be prayed for? While I was think-in g on this a terrible storm came up. Wehad traveled all night and it was now morn-ing. I saw everybody acting nervous andI wondered what the trouble was. I askedone of the stewards, that was coming backand forth in th e plane, what was th e matter.The ste ward said, Youre a minister, arentyou? I said, Yes, sir. He then said, guess you dont mind dying, do you? I saidWait a minute. He then explained, Wewill be all righ t if we can hold ou t until wecan get to a certa in place up in Nova Scotia..We got into a storm awhile ago, and wehavent enough gas to hold up more thantwenty min utw longer. We made i t thoughand I surely was glad to get back on theground. They all celebrated by opening upchampagne, but we celebrated by worshipping God.

But after I got back home, I kep t on pray-in g about Gods will f or m e in th e meetingsI saw Brother Bosworth a little later, and Isaid to him, Brother Bosworth it was awonderful time. He replied, Bro ther Bran-ham, it was the great est in history. Thenhe continued, I want to say somethingBrother Branham, youre a brand new Bran-ham now. Youre ready to start anew. Isaid, Yes, but I am not sure what Godswill is fo r me, and I am not going out again

Althoughthere was only a scratch and his trousers,were not torn, by evening the knee startedto ache. The boy said his prayers and wentto sleep.The leg was quite painful by morning. Buthe went about his chores, for everybody inhis family had to work. Two mornings laterhis leg was so bad, he couldnt go as far asthe barn. By noon he was forced to go tobed. The mother was now alarmed. Shebathed the angry infection, applied poul-tices, and called for the doctor.Dr. Conklin examined the leg and remark-ed that it was not likely that i t could besaved. The boy when he heard this cried out,Dont take off my leg. I would rather die!But the doctor replied, The longer we wait,the more we will have to take off.When thedoctor went out of the room, the sick ladcalled to his brother. He said, If I go out ofmy head dont let them take off my leg.

(Presbyter, Greenville, Mississippi, Section,Assemblies of God)HE ENTI RE Delta area of Mississippi,Arkansas, and Louisiana has been visited.by a tremendous outpouring of GodsSpiri t reminiscent of the great revivals thathave gone down as the greatest in church his-tory. Hundreds were saved every night, as theyflocked to the prayer tents crying out to G odin mighty conviction of soul. Hundreds werehealed as the evangelist laid hands upon thesick and suffering and prayed the prayer offaith. Great was the rejoicing of those whowere delivered from oppressing, tormentingspirits in special prayer lines on DeliveranceNights. Night a f ter a igh t , l ike Peter o f o ld ,we fe l t tha t our nets were break ing , a personalworkers proved insufficient in number and the

two Prayer ten ts too smal l to cope wi th thehundreds that answered the altar calls fo r sal-vation. One night the response was so greatthat instead o f sending the penitents to th eprayer tents, Brother Allen cleared the entirecenter sectio2 o f the main tent to make roomfo r those seeking salvation. Another night,after both prayer tents were filled, 300 whocould not get into the prayer tents prayedthrough standing behind the big platform.

TAs the big tent went up in GreenviUe, many,

including leading citizens. declared that noman could fill such a Iarge tent in such asmall town. However, by the first Sundaynight the big tent was packed. As news spreadof the miracles of healing that were takingplace and hundreds that were being saved,thousands began to drive from distant pointsto see the miracle working power of God inoperation. On the dosing night, approximately2,000 people, unable to find room under thetent, stood around the outside waiting to hearthe word and see the power of God.Many miracles of healing took place duringthe campaign. People I knew were totallyblind received sight instantly. A woman camedragging a paralyzed limb, but G od healed herinstantly so that she used the limb immediate-ly, climbing the steps to the platform readily,without any assistance. Thousands watched asshe demonstrated her ability to use the oncehelpless limb. Goiters disappeared instantly,while others testified that their goiters weregone within three days. People who were to-tally deaf heard immediately, after Allenprayed for them. A young man who was a deaf

Unbcessary DiscouragementHE purpose of publishing reports ofT t h e great Divine healing campaigns andtheir accompanying miracles in answer toprayer for the sick in the Name of Jesusis primarily to glorify God Who is visitingHis people. After that i t is with a desireto encourage faith throughout the Church.

It is good and helpful for people every-where to know that these things are hap-pening today, and that by means of signsfollowing the preaching of the Word, hugecrowds, running sometimes into tens ofthousands, are being attracted to hear theWord of Life and thereby many are con-fessing faith in Fhrist as their Saviour.But although all this should be a causefor pure joy we never can tell how somepeople will react. One of the unexpectedand undesired results of the publication of. these reports of the great healing cam-paigns isa reprehensible wave in some lo-cal assemblies of complaint against thepastor that, These things are not hap-pening here! In some cases it is the pas-tor himself who is. oppressed by discour-agement as he compares his own limitedministry with the spectacular reports pub;lished in various magazines.N ow i f a preacher takes the line ofdefinite repression of the Spirit, and if hegoes so far as to actively promulgate un-belief in our Lord working today as at thebeginning of the Christian era, then weshall have every sympathy with the lawfulcomplainers, The scriptural command toQuench not the Spirit stands unaltered,and that with special reference to themanifestation of His gifts, as the contextand any good commentary as a spur toto draw u s nearer to God. Let u s cultivatei t while it is health? Happy are theywhohunger and thirst. They do u s all good.But it is a very different matter where alocal pastor is faithfully preaching the fullgospel and prays continually for the sick

in the course of his ministry. Such a manought to command the loyal support of allhis people, even though his efforts may notappear to be meeting with spectacular suc-cess. As a matter of fact, and I speak frompersonal knowledge, there is a vast amountof quiet healing ministry going on in thou-sands of Pentecostal Assemblies all over theworld. The big effor%ts nd the mammothcampaigns get the limelight. Indeed theyalmost HAVE to as part of the techniqueof modern methods of evangelism. Weneed not grudge it to them. But i t is avery big mistake to think that the Spiritof God isonly using the prominent preach-ers, and only working in the big campaigns.Thank God that He is using the little ones

The discouragement of some faithful lo-cal pastors and some humbler evangelistsand missionaries because they are not see-ing in their ministries the same resultsa s those of the widely advertised campaignsis to be sincerely deplored. I t touched atragic depth in the too-long fasting of onepreacher who rashly vowed that he wouldnot eat until God showed him why signswere not following his ministry. We admirehis zeal and his devotion even unto deathin his sincerity, but it all seems to havebeen so unnecessary and misguided. Surelythe right thing is for us all to go aheadwith such fai th as we possess, by the graceof God, and then trust Him to confirmHis Word.We use a- mistaken measuring rod, andbecause unnecessarily discouraged over ourown ministry, if the measure we use is theapparent success of some outstanding evan-gelists whom we have placed before oureyes as models. The measure of each mansfaith lies within the grace of God (Rom.12:3) and the distribution of gifts as Hewill. No amount of fasting will force usbeyond the talents entrusted to our care,

too.

chough it may greatly help us in doing ou rutmost with them. Our true concern i sfaithfulness with what the Lord H AS be-stowed, and none need complain of lackof scope in which to win the Masters ap-proval. To ACT in His Nyne, and thenleave the results with Him is the way oftruth and wisdom. The supernatural somany long to see is not the reward formorbid strain and stress, but rather it isthe manifestation of the Spirit workingthrough different members of the body ofChrist according to the will of God. Ourpart is faith and obedience-the rest be-longs to the Almighty.Unnecessary discouragement caused byunwise comparisons is to be restricted. Ourduty is to rejoice in all that the Lord I Sdoing anywhere and everywhere, and thenserve Him with joy in our own sphere inconfidence that He is faithful. I ntense l on ging for revival to the int of real travailin intercession isa v i z pa r t of the Divinemethod, hut with the burden of the Lordthere should come a deep inward peace andfreedom from personal anxiety. Let thereports we read of signs and wonders else-where no longer cloud nor joy with localor personal discouragement. Let them, therather, stimulate us to be on the tiptoe ofexpectation while we carry on with a songin our hearts, and praise on our lips to theGiver of all good.( D O N A L D GE E is Editor of a quarterlymagazine PENTECOST w h ic h gives a re-uiew of world-uride missionmy atu l revivalnews.

in the case of the Prince, the line is drawnso finely that many people find it a mostdifficult thing to detect the subterfuge.Iwas most anxious to see some of theoutstanding manifestati ons of his unusualpower, and I had made up my mind I wouldbe on the jab and be wide awake, s o tha tnothing would escape my attention.Whether he got my th oughts or nat, I donot know. Most likely he did, for within amatter of an hour, while on the journeyhome, we came upon a large pile of brush-wood, small logs ffom the mountains thathad been left there evidently by Arabs touse a t another time.AS we approached this pile of logs, Inoticed that the Prince was looking at itwith what appeared to be something morethan just a casual glance, as might havebeen the case, were he not intent on doingsomething special. I followed his every ac-tion. Finally he stepped to the side of t h epath. Without saying a word to anyone, orEking us any previous clue to his intentions,he suddenly raised his right hand, as thoughhe were placing it over the top of this pileof brush-wood. No match was struck; noflint was used, and no word w as apparen tlyspoken, but in a n. instan t th is became aseething furnace. He stepped back int o thepath again, and nothing was said. We re-sumed our walking. The re was no referencemade to it in any wgy.

I stirred, looked around me-puzzled.For something Id never experienced beforewas undeniably coming into that holy Tibe-tan forest. Something wa s beginning t o fas-ten itself upon me like invisible hands, topossess me agai nst m y will. I tried to shrugthe feeling away. And the scientific side ofme looked about f o r some explanation.The circle of conjurers began t o swaysoftl y from side to side. The chan ting con-tinued to swell. And I hegan to think ofall that Old Sherap had told me of what Imust see there. Yama, King of Hell, andhis satellite demons and devils. I watchedthe s pot where th e demons were supposed toappear, trying to see something where rea-son told m e ther e wa s nothing.I do not know what my camera wouldhave seen. I only know what I thought Isaw. Yama, King of Hell, was appearinglittl e by little! He did not come in throughthe trees. He was not a Tibetan, masquer-ading. One moment he was not there, andthe space empty. Then he began to growbefore my very eyes!All the circle of sorcerers saw it a t th esam e time. Wilder and wilder became their

chanting. It was not like a dream. Beyondthe Grand Wizard, all around us, I could seethe poplars and the pines. I saw the sorcer-ers, noted their faces deliberately. I madespecial not e of Old Sherap beside me, withhis 12 feet of hair coiled like a black snakeato p his head, But Yama was coming at ourcall. As fervently as any other Nukhwa, Iwas intoning in the deepest voice I couldmanage: Yamantaka!It was the glaring bulging eyes I sa wfirst. At t he height of an average man fromthe ground, they stared at us, filled withmalevolence. To right and left of the eyeswere str an ge mists, which shifted and beganto take form until, like some evil flowerbursting suddenly into bloom, they becameall the 34 ar ms of Yama, with 34 handseach grasping some implement of destruc-tion.

The main head grew into being aboutthe eyes. Th en appeared other heads, untilthere we re nine, all shrouded in trans parentbluish flames, which danced and flickedabou t unceasingly. Then the shoulders, overeach of which hung a garland of humanskulls, which rattled horribly at the leastmovement.I shivered. I glanced away. When Ilooked back I expected that Yama would nolonger be there. But he was, staring at mewith his bulging eyes. His lips now werevisible, and they were huge, and libidinous-and the teeth like th e fan gs of no anim alon earth.These three brief accounts are sufficientto demonstrate the very real forces of helltha t a re loose in the world today. What doesi t mean? It means that Satan is preparingto c arr y on the most diabolical war agains$humanity in the history of the universe. Ofthis John th e Revelator speaks:, . . Woe to the inhabitersof the earthand of th e sea, fa r the devil is come downunto you, having great wrath, because heknoweth tha t he hath bu t a short time. Rev.12:12.

SI%NS..MIRACLES - WONDERSIN THE -CAMPAIGNS QF TVH EVANGELISTSEVA NG. RU DY CERULLOGOITER MELTS AWAYAS MANY LOOK ONBO UT eight years ago, I became afflictedA w i t h a goiter that grew until some folktold me i t was the large* they had ever seen.Two years a g o , I

was advised by- Dr.Wallace H. Brown, ofShreveport, Louisiana,to have an operationon the goiter; be-cause, by this time, itwas causing smother-ing spells - nd, attimes, I could hard\ .breathe. However, Idecided , against theopera tI on, believin,that the Lord wouldheal me.In the back of m y m i n d , Z had always feltthat either one o r th e other o f t w o w e l l- k n ow nevangel is t s would have to pray f or me i f Iwere to receive a healing, as Z bud great con-fidence in these tw o evangelists. In the courseof t ime, I was prayed fo r , in turn by eachof these-but to my utter amazement foundthat I was none the better. By this t ime, mygoiter w a so large that, whenever Z was i npublic, Z would cover my neck wi th a scarf.In the providence of God, I attended serviceone Sunday night at Life Tabernacle, here inShreveport, where Rev. Rudy Cerullo was.preaching. After the message, he offered topray for the sick. The Lord spoke to me, andtold me that this was also one of His minis-ters, and that if Iwould, in faith, have BrotherCerullo pray for me that night, I would becompletely delivered. Immediately, I obeyed.Jumping to my feet, almost before I knewwhat I was doing, I rushed to the platform.Brother Cerullo laid his hand on my throatand commanded the goiter to leave in theName of Jesus. When he laid his hand onmythroat, I felt the goiter leave. I was complete-ly healed, in the presence of many people, andnow, after a years time, there is absolutelyno trace of the goiter. My many friends whohave known me for years are here this morn-ing to verify what I am saying. To God I giveall the glory! Mrs. Walter Gray1145 ProspectShreveport, La.

LOUZSE NANKZVELLDAYTONS MEMORIAL HALLSHAKEN BY THE LORDROM T HE opening serviceonMay 25, GodsF ivine presence was manifested and G odmightily anointed Sister Nankivell as she min-istered at Memorial Hall.The Spirit of the Lord rested upon the open-ing service as Sister Nankivell was directedby God to call out and pray for a man whohad a strange muscular disease. God touchedhim and from this time on we witnessed agreat visitation from God. Bed patients werebrought from long distances-one case beingbrought 300 miles. ,As w e witnessed this great visi tation to Day-ton, w e saw bed patients arise and w alk. Oneludy threw her crutches away. Deaf ea r s wereopened, the lame walked, the blind saw, back-sliders wer e reclaimed, and sinners wer e saved.W e a l l rejoiced as night a fter night w e sawthe demonstration o f Gods pow er up on themeetings.16

The meetings had a far-reaching effect. Peo-ple came from hundreds of miles. They camefrom Kansas, Oklahoma, New York, Tennes-see, and surrounding states especially to attendthese services. Gad blessed them and manytestified to being renewed in their faith.Although some were skeptical when theycame, they went away believing when theysaw the work of God. Many stirring reportshave come to us of healings. One lady who satthrough an entire service stood to her feet atthe close crying out, Rev. Phillips, may I tes-tify? When she came into the meeting hereyesight was so bad that she could only dis-tinguish li ght from dark but as the meetingprogressed, G od touched her sitting in herseat and she could see me standing on theplatform. Such shouts of praise and victoryI am sure never rang out before in hfemorialHall.As Sister Nankivell ministered in sackclothin fulfillment of her VOW, God anointed her.Almost every night in the preliminary part ofthe service she would call many from theaudience who were strangers to her tellingthem their ailments, and as she prayed forthem God would touch them.Many notable miracles took place in theprayer line such as the following: One ladythrew away her cane as she went shouting. Ayoung lady totally blind came and as prayerwas offered God opened her eyes. Beforeprayer was completed she cried out, I can see,I can see, I can see the lights. A great shoutof praise rang through the huge auditorium asshe pointed out lights and told the color ofbooks held before her, and waved her armsjust as she saw Sister Nankivell doing. I couldtell of many more. The first Monday night alady wearing a neck brace threw i t to thefloor. Miracles and signs followed the minister-ing of Gods word nightly.While praying for the sick in the prayer lineat the closing portion of the service, nightlySister Nankivell was moved to tell many theirailments and troubles, instructing them whatthey should do for complete deliverance. Anumber came in the prayer line who were un-saved and as Sister Nankivell ministered tothem and prayed for them they were saved andhealed.One night i t w as revealed to her by the Spiritthat a lady in t h e prayer l ine was suffer ingwi th a heartache and a great loss. T he sicklady con firm ed this stating that she had losther daughter and her heart was heavy. Godtouched her and comforted her heart .In another instance it was revealed by theSpirit that a man in the prayer line was dab-bling in spiritualism and the man in the pray-er line confessed that this was so. Another timea man in the prayer line came to her and shetold him that God revealed to her that he wascareless in telling the truth, which he ack-nowledged.In every case, these people were strangers toSister Nankivell and we rejoice in this greatvisitation of Gods Spirit.The ministry of Sister Nankivell will longbe remembered here, and I would like toadd aword to the faithfulness of the Lord. Whenwe first thought about a healing and salvationcampaign we asked God to directus to the per-son toget for such a meeting. In due time Goddirected and we arranged the meeting withour Sister. Then it was a great step of faithfor our church was only a li ttle over a yearold. In faith we prepared for the meeting, andin faith we engaged Memorial Hall. In faithSister Nankivell came and we are rejoicingin the miracles that have taken place both inthe souls and bodies of the people.

EVAN G . T . L. OSBORNSHORT LEG GROWSLONGER AFTER PRAYER ,THEiracle which God has wrought onmy daughter is too great for me to explainMy heart is so full of joy I find it difficulto speak. I am notaffected by emotion-alism, but this mir-acle has affected ourl ives to the p r o -foundest depths ofour hearts. My daughter wasborn with a physicaldefect; one leg wasshorter than theother. We took herto all the doctors wecould afford, butnothing c o u 1d bedone. T he n erv es,leaders, bones andmuscles were all af-fected. We knewnone but God couldever heal her. Wealways believed thatsome day God wouldgrant us this greatblessing.We have attended all the services ofBrother Osborns campaign here in thisgreat bull-fighting ring along with thethousands of others. L ast night, after theclear sermon on the Gospel in which Bro.Osborn explained how Jesus Christ hasalready taken all our infirmities, and desires to make us perfectly whole, we joinedin the great mass prayer, believlng Godheard us. After the prayer, we were thrilled\ with the testimonies of so many others.Everywhere, I heard and saw miracles;

blind say, deaf heard, paralitics walked,and hernias and other sicknesses disap-peared. Then the service was dismissedand we walked home.As we were walking home, my daughtersaid, Papa, I feel strange feelings in myleg, like pains. I believe God is healingme. I said, LGood, daughter; keep prayingand believing. But she insisted that Godwas healing her. Her faith was great. Shekept saying how she was being healed, andwhen we reached the house, to our inde-scribable joy she was perfectly healed.Immediately we began to examine herlegs. E very way we could check and measurethem, they were both exactly the same. Shewalked perfectly. She has no limp. Here shestands, perfectly well; both legs are exactlythe same. She would tell you about it, butshe is so happy she cannot talk. (The younglady was weeping all the time her fatherwas talking.)Many people know us, and know that wetell the truth; you also know the conditionmy child was born in, and how we havenever been able to find help. I t was impos-sible for anyone except God, but with Himall things are possible.We have always had faith, but this hasincreased our faith and our love for Godmore than anything else in our lives.Recaredo Murillo B.375 V.
