The Family Altar Audio Devotional - Day 287

I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the Lord. Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem. (Psalm 122:1-2) 331. Brother Branham, do you teach that the Bride must not attend any church unless you are there preaching, or else the tabernacle, other words, the tabernacle? (Got “else,” it means “other words.”) 332. Also, do you teach that we need not keep the—the Sunday or holidays, as working, fishing, or so forth? Or…(I’d say that was Sunday. It looked like Sunday to me. Or right at the bottom it look like…or Sunday, I guess it is, holidays or Sundays. Yeah, Sundays, that what it look like? [Brother Branham speaks to someone—Ed.] Holy days—holy days, Sunday and holy days.) 122 No! You’re mistaken. See? Let me go over and just answer it as I come by. Do you teach that the Bride must not attend any other church unless you are preaching—preaching or else, otherwise, the tabernacle? 123 No! I don’t teach that. I don’t believe that; I do not believe it. We’ve got ministers setting here that’s scattered all around through the country, and I believe they are part of that Bride. I believe that a man or woman can go to church anywhere they want to go that teaches the Word. And I believe, if they don’t teach the whole Word, and you can’t go to church any other place where they teach the whole Word, go where they teach half the Word until you can get to where they teach the whole Word. Go to church whatever you do. Do that. Also do you teach that we must—we must…need not keep Sunday, or any holy day, or—or working, or like working, or fishing on Sunday? 124 I believe it’s a sin to fish, and hunt, and work on Sunday when you can go to church. Now, I believe you’re transgressing the laws of God. “Is there a commandment to such?” Yes, sir! Now, in the Old Testament we had a type of the Sabbath day. It was all…And Jesus did not come for you to keep Sabbath days. The old Sabbath day was Saturday, which was the end of the week. Sunday is the eighth day, or the first day of the week, which Jesus rose on. 125 I do not believe it’s right to…Now, if you’re way away into a wilderness somewhere, and you’re out there on a hunting trip, there’s no church around, anything like that, and there’s nothing you can do; and if you was fishing, I believe that would be all right. But if you’re around in the city, or around where church is going on, you should attend church by all means, somewhere. 126 And I believe, as far as working, I believe if the ox is in the ditch, or something has to be done on Sunday, you go ahead and do it, if it’s something that you couldn’t help, it had to work that way. But if you just do it, and wait till Sunday to do it, or just do it like that, you’re wrong. See? We must not do that, we must respect that holy day. 64-0830m - "Questions And Answers #3" Rev.
