<TITLE>12. Par -</TITLE>L-27-97 So these priests and so forth which are denied the rights of having a wife... Now, that, the Roman church can do whatever... That's them; they're the one that has to answer that--for that, not me.
Well, I was asked by a--a man, recently, said, "What do you think of priests?" Said, "What do you think about that young priest here in town that took that woman, that girl, a Jeffersonville girl here, and went and married her?" (In the Irish church, you remember, I forget what his name was.)
I said, "He had just as much right to get married as I have. That's exactly what I think about it." I said, "The only thing I hold... I think he done wrong; he ought to have went to the church and resigned his office and then went and married the girl, instead of just running off like that."
Now, you remember when it taken place a few weeks ago here in Jeff., the Irish Catholic priest down here. He's a young fellow, and he was going--had some girl sweetheart down here. And when he... They give him a great big love offering, going to change parishes with him, send him up to Indianapolis somewhere. And he just took the love offering, girl and all, and went off and got married, and they never heard from him no more. Well, he had a right to get married, but he didn't have a right to do that. He shouldn't have done that. He should've went to the--the church and said, "Here, I'm resigning this office as a priest. I'm going to get married, and that settles it."

L-28-101 But now, God making Eve, and Adam and Eve at the same time, the only thing He made was the supernatural, the spirit Adam and the spirit Eve, the man and woman. Then he made... put Adam in here. It wasn't good for... See, it's God's picture unfolding all the time. Everything like this, it's just--it's just coming right down right, just unfolding right out, coming out through the millennium over yonder and right on into eternity, just God's picture just unfolding, God unfolding Himself.
Here, God manifested Himself in Christ Jesus. It showed what He was. What was Jesus? A man of sorrow, acquainted with grief, loving, to the prostitute, "Where art thy accusers?" "I have none, Lord." "Neither do I accuse you. Go, sin no more."
Tired and weary from walking about thirty miles that day through the desert sands and things, there was a woman of Nain coming out, and her only boy, dead, laying there. He stopped the funeral procession, laid His hands upon him, said, "Rise." And the boy who was dead rose up again. That--that's our Lord Jesus. (Thank you, Teddy, son.) And there, that was our Lord Jesus Who was never too tired, never too weary to do anything good. All right.

L-28-Q-3 Now, here's another thing:
Did Cain go to the--to the first creation of man and woman for his wife?
Now, there is a--an awful ticklish question; now listen real close. Now, oh, I've... You've seen people put in the paper, "Where did Cain get his wife?" Oh, I used to say it.
And I never taught there was a burning hell for about four years after my conversion. I had to see it in the Scriptures. If I don't know, I won't say nothing about it. See?
But now, "Where did Cain get his wife?" Now, that's the--the analysis of this question. "...?... Cain go to his wife to the creation of man and women for his wife?" See? Now, now, one of the first...
