<TITLE>11. Par 45-48</TITLE>L-45 Now, imagine Cain being the anointed of Satan, Satan's son, who came down... And I'd like to show you a little picture there too in a... of Cain and Abel. How that when they came... Cain came to bring this sacrifice; they were probably way more beautiful than what Abel's was. Cain was a tiller of the soil. And he had--he had lilies and beautiful things to decorate his altar.
Now, look. I want you to get this, and someday before Almighty God where we'll all stand, you'll find out this ain't too far wrong. Watch Cain in his nature. He was natured after his dad, Satan. And when he come... I want you to see he made a beautiful sacrifice, perhaps, decorated with lilies and everything like here in--in our land.

L-46 Every Easter a minister told me not long ago of a certain big denominational church. He said, "Brother Branham, I just don't know what to do." He said, "I--I--I... Every time when the people comes on Easter," said, "I--I give them a 'Merry Christmas and Happy New Year,'" 'cause I won't see them no more till next Easter, and they're members of my church."
I said, "Sir, you won't believe it, but the reason they don't come, they have nothing in them to draw them."
Here some time ago when I was a boy, I was coming down a pole. I was working for a light company, and I'd--I had to turn off electric lights. And I went over there; I had to collect a bill across the street. There was a little old girl in there, and I knocked on the door, and she come to the door and she said, "Who are you?"
And I said, "I'm with the public utilities. I believe the lady--the bookkeeper told me that you'd forgot to send..."
"Oh, yes," said, "mother sent it," and said, "Mother was going to send it and she left it here." Said, "Will you take it?"

L-47 I said, "Yes, ma'am." She gave me the bill. I marked it paid. Started to hand it to her, and one of these here old jig dancers, or ever what it is, come on with that, sawing that fiddle and carrying on, and playing some kind of a little old boogie-woogie music ever what it was; and that girl put on a little old clothes there, about enough to wad a shotgun, and it was pitiful.
Listen. I got two girls, and if--if they call suntan. If one of mine, if God lets me live, she'll get a suntan if she puts it on, but Charlie Branham, my daddy's son, will give her the tan with a barrel slat just as hard as I can give it to her. That's the kind of a tanning she needs. Absolutely. Out there like that, no wonder the corruption of the world. How can you men and women... You men...

L-48 Now, you're going to get angry with me. You just might as well get started, but you men that'll let your wives go out and act like that, and smoke cigarettes, and dance around, that shows how much man's in you. That's right. A real blue-blooded man won't permit such stuff as that. That's right. Brother, that may be hard to digest, but if it is, take it, 'cause it's good for you. Amen. That's exactly right. I tell you, a real red-blooded man...
My wife may do it sometime. When she does, that's the day she leaves the Branham home. That's exactly right. I wouldn't permit it. By the grace of God, I couldn't permit it. That's right. And when men will stand up...
Excuse me. That thing's got more voice than I have. But look. I'm not excited. I know where I am. I know what I'm talking about too. Now, look. That's right.
