<TITLE>14. Par 34-36</TITLE>L-34 Let me tell you something. You let one of their girls go out and stay all night, come in the next morning, the way some of yours does, brother, I mean there'd be a difference in that family. Yes, they sure would. She'd about blister her all over that hillside with a tobacco stick or something. You know that's the truth, and then you call her illiterate.
Look. I got two girls too, I don't know what they'll come out.
I see them laying out, stretched out in these yards even around here. Didn't think the south would ever allow that. I was surprised. Laying out on the streets, them little old clothes on, getting a sun tanning...
My, kids might do that; I don't say they won't. But, brother, they'll get a son-tanning, but it'll my father's son, tanning with a barrel slat, as hard as I can, bringing them in. That'll be the kind of tanning they'll get. And that's what we need today, some more old fashion, God-sent Holy Ghost, that can...?... baptizing of the Spirit of God. Where the Word, preaching under the Blood a Christ-centered thing that separates. Christ hates sin. The Holy Ghost hates sin. No wonder people hate sin. No wonder people hates the Holy Ghost, I mean, is because they can't love Light when they're walking in darkness. Amen. That's true, and you know it's true.

L-35 When a man comes to the waters of separation, that's all right. But don't stop there. The next thing, the blood went before him and made seven stripes over the door. And every believer, after once coming and hearing the Word, comes to Christ, saying, "Yes, I believe that," that's intellectual. That's fine. Then he walks towards the door, and before he can come into the door, there's an ensign lifted up there to show that something died and went before him to make a way into the door. Christ died for every sinner and every sick person here tonight. He did. The ensign lifted up, which was the...

L-36 In the Old Testament we find Ruth there and Boaz, a very beautiful type of the Redeemer, how that he'd redeemed as an ensign lifted up. How that Naomi had left the lands, went out in the time of depression, and very hungry she was. And she lost her husband and so forth. She brought her daughter-in-law back with her, Ruth. And when they returned back in the season of barley, beautiful type of Christ here... Some people just look over that. There's not a word in the Testament but what speaks of Jesus Christ. Everything in the Bible points straight to the cross, everywhere.
There, that story of Ruth, just a moment off our lesson for a moment. Look at her when she returned back, and she'd lost all of her estate; everything she had had been taken. She was left poor, nothing. And when she come in, she sent the young Ruth, which forsaken her god (type of the Gentile Church), had forsaken her gods to come and live with Naomi. Where she lived, she had lived; where she died, she'd died, her God would be her God.
