Ashamed

Brother Branham just returned from Africa and surprises the Tabernacle with a visit, where he first gives a report of his trip and then preaches a sermon on being ashamed of Christ or His Gospel. After Brother Branham closes the service, you will notice a change in the audio. The recording at the end of the sermon is on May 27, 1965, when Brother Branham greeted the people outside of a house in Johannesburg, South Africa. His restricted visa did not allow him to have a religious service. He is speaking through an Afrikaans translator.  

Here are a few highlights from today’s sermon and a slideshow from Brother Branham's 1965 African hunting trip. 

34 And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

35 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it.

36 For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?

37 Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

38 Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.

Mark 8:34-38

I feel led. I've never had such a hunger in my heart for God, in all my life, than I have now, see. For... And I--I want to get my own tent and my--my stuff, like the Lord gave me a vision to, and I believe the time is just now at hand. 


So, I want every day of my life to count for Him. What I have left, what time I have, I want to spend it somewhere doing something, if it's no more than stand on a street corner, testifying to the glory and honor of God.


When you know that you—you’re trying to do what’s right, the first thing is, if you feel led to do anything, then check it with the Word and see if it’s right with the Word, and then let nothing stop you. I don’t care how many wheels the devil throws in the way, just move right over the top of them.


Why should I want to go there? But it's something in my heart, that pulls me to Africa. There, those people, there--there is something about them, that I love, and I want to go just for the colored people only. And there is something in a lot of them, them leaders, they don't feel I should do that. I--I want to go to my colored friends. That's where the Lord called me. 


When you get to a spot, you’re so smart that you know everything, then God can’t do nothing with you. But if you get to a place that you’re willing to listen and learn, then—then it’s God’s time, can move in and talk to you. 


But just as I sure was standing there under that Inspiration, put judgment on that West Coast, and then followed it right up here with the sinking of Los Angeles, she is gone! That’s right. It will happen.


Just a perfect Message, back to the Word, “Go get that Bride!” That’s a duty. That’s what I’m here for. That’s what I’m trying to do, is call out a Bride.


But today we have the God of Heaven, not only among us, but in us, dwelling, living His Life through us.


Are you ashamed of the full Gospel? Are you ashamed of your pentecostal experience? That’s being ashamed of His Word. That’s His Word made flesh in you.


Jesus said, “Now, if you are ashamed of Me, then I’ll be ashamed of you.” Why would He be ashamed of you? Because you are claiming to be His, when you won’t follow Him.


No matter how much the world is against It, how much the denominations are against It, God is proving It to be the Truth. When the great hour finally strikes, things will happen maybe that we didn’t think about.


But how can a man who is filled with the Holy Ghost, how can a man full of the Power of God, and the love of God in his heart, talk to a man a few minutes and not mention something about that love that’s in his heart?


That Spirit must punctuate every promise of God with an “amen”! If it isn’t, then you never met God, you met a deceiving spirit. And the world is full of it today!


Now God wants man who is wrapped up in the Word.


He’ll stone this unbelieving world, this adulterous generation. He’ll stone it from heaven, with hailstones weighing a talent apiece, which is a hundred pounds.


Wherever the Eagles are, they'll follow that Food. Whether It comes by a tape, or whether It comes by a word or a testimony, Eagles will follow It to Its headquarters. For It is written, "Where the Carcass is, there the Eagles will gather." 


Doesn’t embarrass me to say I believe every Word of God. Doesn’t embarrass me when the Lord says to say anything, you go say it and do it; don’t embarrass me to say that I’ve been filled with the Holy Ghost; don’t embarrass me to say that I have spoke with other tongues; don’t embarrass me to say that our Lord has showed me visions; don’t embarrass me to say He’s the same yesterday, today, and forever.


So has the Gospel and the Power of Almighty God, has spread around the world! And the separation time is now taking place, when God is calling a Bride, and the devil is calling a church. Let me be part of the Bride!


But I still believe that, through God, I will minister again, in the Name of the Lord Jesus, among the people of Africa. God has promised to give us the desire of our heart, and that's one of the desires of my heart.
