Plantin' Potatoes


Bro. Branham 59-0628m
"A seed, an old potato, a seed potato,
you take that potato and put it in the ground.
 Until you can have new potatoes, that old potato has to rot.
 A corn cannot produce new life until it's rotten.  And a man or woman can never have new birth until their intellectuals and their own self is rotten, dead, die out at the altar, and scream, get all messed up to a place the starch gets out of your collar, and you're borned again by the Spirit of God. I don't care if you squall, speak in tongues, jump up-and-down, flop like a chicken with its head off, you're bringing forth new Lifes. But we substituted something for it; we want the classical way. Sure." 

The garden finally dried off enough that I was able to till it up and plant my potatoes.  My farmer came out to help after supper and I sure am glad he did!  It started raining a little bit and we finished up before it got too wet again.  I love the way Bro. Branham uses nature to explain spiritual things to us.  It so easy to understand and apply it to our everyday lives.




(Here's a tip from my dad on planting potatoes:  don't plant your potatoes too close to the onions.....why?  because their "eyes" will water!)

A big thank you to my farmer for helping me to finish planting potatoes!
