<TITLE>05. Par 34-43</TITLE>L-34 Now, I was asked about the book that Mr. Church wrote, or them things in there. And oh, many has been calling asked if I was going to say anything about it, and everything. No, I ain't saying nothing about it. Just let it alone. See?
Listen, I'll probably be preaching Divine healing when Mr. Church is buried. So now... See, Divine healing... When me and Mr. Church both is laying in our graves, God's Bible will still be preach--teaching Divine healing, and people will be practicing it. So it doesn't make any difference. That's... It's too bad that we American preachers hasn't got enough to do but just go around and argue with one another, and pick a fuss to stir up something. You see? When God's Word declares Divine healing. And they have done it from the ages all the way through. And it always will be that way.
And as far as believing the Word's inspired, I believe that every iota in that Bible is inspired. There's none of It...

L-37 Let me just pass a little something to you here while we're thinking of it. You know what makes Protestants turns Catholic? Is because the Catholics believes this Word's inspired. The Protestant believes some parts of It's inspired. The part he wants It to be inspired, "It's inspired; the rest of It's not inspired." If It hits his doctrine, It's not inspired. See, that's the Protestant.
The Catholic says, that It's all inspired, every bit of It, but their church is over the Word. So make any different what the Word says; it's the church. Therefore, I couldn't conscientiously be a Catholic.
Nothing against Catholic people, they are my friends. And if they believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, they're my brethren, and have accepted Him as personal Saviour.

L-40 Now, the churches is what I mean. I could... I disagree with the Catholic doctrine. I could not be a Catholic in that manner, the Roman Catholic church, because, they, "The infallibility of the pope; and the church over the Word; and the church being above the Bible." I couldn't do that.
I can't conscientiously be a Protestant, because I can't take part of the Word and say, "Part of It's inspired, and this part's inspired; this meant something else, and this..."
I'm a Bible worshipper. I believe that that is God's Word. There's nothing over It, and never will be. As long as there's an eternity, It'll still be the Word of God. See? I believe that is. Now, I...

L-43 There may be things there that I don't understand, maybe things that I can't bring to pass, with my little weak faith I have. Maybe I can't bring it to pass, but it's still the Truth. It's God's Word. It's God's Word. Regardless of what anyone else says, I believe It to be the Word of God.
And I believe that in There is the--the Seed. This is a basket full of Seeds. And I believe that the Holy Spirit takes that Seed and sows it into our hearts, like that. Don't you believe that? And we become His children.
So therefore, I've got to believe. If there's one Word not inspired, then I couldn't trust the Book. I couldn't believe It 'cause if This part is not inspired...
Mr. Church said, "Certain parts of the Bible's not inspired, like Mark 16 and so forth." Says, "It's not inspired."
Why, I met his Methodist minister friends right in New Albany, and they disagreed with him by a hundred million miles. They said that they "couldn't stomach that." And a Presbyterian preacher standing there said, "Well, brother, I--I don't know what's the matter with the man." See? Now, he said, "Well, now look, he..."
I said, "That's what makes Catholics. That's what makes the Protestants what they are, a weak bunch of nothing." See? I said, "That's what it is, because they have no hopes. They can't build their hopes on this Bible, 'cause part of It's inspired; part of It's not."
