<TITLE>12. Par 35-37</TITLE>L-35 You know what the Blood of Christ does to confessed sin? Did you ever take... You women, could you imagine having a wash tub full of bleach and take a little eye dropper full of ink, and you drop it, this ink down into this washtub full of bleach, what happens to the ink? The ink becomes bleach. What happened? It doesn't hurt the bleach a bit. It just takes on and becomes bleach. That's what confessed sin does. When it's confessed upon the Blood of the Lord Jesus Christ, it changes its color and becomes righteousness. For you're willing to acknowledge it and accept God's provided way for you to be saved. Nothing like it, friends.
No wonder the old Salvation Army used to sing the song, "What can wash away my sin? Nothing but the blood of Jesus." Not joining church, starting a new thing, or reading once in a while some literature, or something.
Nothing but the Blood of Jesus.
What can make me whole again?
Nothing but the Blood of Jesus.
Oh, precious is the flow that makes me white as snow;
No other fount I know,
Nothing but the Blood of Jesus.
I think of it tonight. Think of the redeeming song:
Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come;
It's grace that's brought me safe this far,
Grace will take me on."

L-36 Back in the Garden of Eden, a picture here before you just for a moment... Look at God's little children, Adam and Eve, running around in the garden: Lovely, no sickness, no heartaches, nothing to harm or destroy, never to get old. When Adam woke up that morning, when God taken from his side the rib and made a woman... I know the Grecian artist and different artists of the world paint the picture of Eve, a horrible looking beast. That's wrong. Only common, every day knowledge would let you know different from that. No one admired anyone that looks like that. Though they might look like that and can't help it, they feel sorry for them.

L-37 But I believe that Eve was the most beautiful woman that God ever put on the earth. I can see her setting there, her eyes as blue as the stars above--the skies, sparkle, her long hair hanging down her back. The most perfect looking woman ever was on earth, there she is. God give Adam the best that He could.
Adam took her by the arm, said, "She's flesh of my flesh and bone of my bone." And there standing arm to arm in the garden of Eden, Almighty God performed the first ceremony was ever married a couple. Then it could be done by some drunken magistrate, it's a holy and sacred thing. That's right. God performed the first one, ceremony.
