<TITLE>16. Par -</TITLE>L-80-131 Look at it today. Well, we've got people in this country that's... Now, I'm not... This... I'm an American; you know I am. But let me tell you; this is the lowest nation outside of Paris, France, that I know of anywhere in the world. It's so degraded, why, even the foreign people in Africa, in--in Sweden and--up there, they say, "What in the world's the matter with you American people? Don't you all have no more respect for your women? For all the songs on--on the radio, some kind of an old dirty, vulgar song about women. Don't you have no respect for your women over there?"
All our songs are about women, and sex, and lust, and things like that. It's because the devil has got ahold of it. That's exactly right. Old Hollywood and televisions and everything is pushing out that vulgar and ungodly stuff, will go to old newsstands and everything else. Everything's some stripped women or something. That's exactly what it started in the beginning, ending the same way. It's a shame.

L-81-134 And the backbone of any nation is womanhood, when it comes to morals. And you break motherhood, you've broke your nation. We've got to a place today till our women smoking cigarettes, and things like that, and drinking whiskey, and carrying on, and it's--it's disgraceful.
A young man to try to find a wife that's even a virgin, that's moral, he'd have to go around some good little old Holy Ghost church almost to find one; and that's exactly right, where a man just kept her in and things like that, and got a little decency about her.
You might think that's crazy, but, brother, you look it over and find out, and see if that isn't the truth. It's a disgrace. All right.
Them was the sons of God which are at... Now, that, I can explain my... When--when I know if...

L-81-137 I had another question today; they say, "Why, Brother Bill, the Bible said Eve said, 'I have got a son from the Lord.'" Exactly right. It had to come from the Lord. The Lord's only Creator there is. He... God created the devil. How's that? God created the devil. God created every fallen angel there is. Is that right? Why, certainly. That was their choice, not His. He created you; what are you doing about it? You'll be judged the same as they are. There you are. Certainly.

L-81-138 These were sons of God, but they had fallen from grace and had come into these beastly men, and run out and lust. When they seen women, they just got them. Why, they're still here. The immorality of America is full of... A man without the Spirit of God, would throw a baby out of a mother's arms and ravish her. Without God, he's not--he's not much better than a beast. He's still got that beast, ungodly nature. And a man with... They say, "Religion takes you... so a man go crazy over religion." Religion's the only thing that can give a man his right mind, that is, the religion of Jesus Christ.
I could prove by the Bible that you're not in your right mind till you've found Christ. That's right. That's pretty strong, but I can prove that by the Scripture. That's right. You become beastly, lustly, and everything until you've found Christ Jesus. He's the lovely One.

L-81-140 Now, I'll admit that people study too much, and try to go too far ahead, and try to think too hard, and sometimes have mental breakdowns and things on account of studying about the Lord. You must quit that. You don't have to do that. The only thing you have to do is fall in love with Him, and just go right on loving Him. Amen. It's not trying to push into something or make yourself something you're not; just go ahead and let God use you the way He wants to use you. Just yield yourself; commit yourself and walk on, happy, singing, rejoicing. That's the way.
