<TITLE>12. Par 43-46</TITLE>L-43 The world stands back, said, "Look at those holy rollers."  But the tears from sinners... Yes, Lord. Yes, Lord, we believe You. Oh...?...
There she was...?... all she had. All of her of money was spent and here she was crying, washing His feet.
And notice, something happened. She had her hair all fixed up, and it fell down. Oh, she took her hair, and she was beside herself. She was so happy, she was wiping His feet with her hair. You know what? Some women today would have a hard time doing that; done cut it all off. You'd have to stand on your head to do that. It's a shame. The Bible said that a woman's hair is her glory. That's what the Bible said. Too bad you cut your glory off. What you need over here is a good old time Holy Ghost revival. Amen. Not only here, but the whole world needs a good old fashioned Gospel shaking again, back to the Word of God.

L-44 The Bible said that was her glory. Look at this poor...?... All the money she had, lay in here in this spikenard box. Taken tears from her eyes, furnishing the water... The only--the only decent thing she had was her hair, her glory. And...?... that Jesus feet. Oh, God, lay your glory, everything, at the feet of Jesus. That's what you want to do. He's in your city; He's in your midst. Don't be different towards Him. Believe Him. Love Him.
And she washed His feet and wiped them with her hair. Now, she picked up the spikenard bottle. She breaks the top. She--she just can't hardly stand up. She's half stooped. And about that time old Pharisee, hairs turned white, then his face turned red with rage. She was breaking up his party. Hallelujah. God grant that people will be sincere enough, and have Jesus enough, break up some old cold formal worship and get--and get to Jesus. You have need of Him.

L-45 There she was. The Pharisee said, "Now, see? He's no prophet, for if he was a prophet, he would know what type of woman that was." Self righteous Pharisee, shame on them. He said, "Why, she'll ruin His reputation." How different it was.
Listen. Jesus' reputation is made where sinners is. (Jesus' reputation is made with sinners.) It takes sinners that realize they're sinners, that realize they're lost, realize they're away from God, that would get beside themselves, and then worship Him. That's where His reputation's made. That's how His reputation made this paralyzed woman the other night; with the deaf and dumb; with the blind. They get beside themselves.
They probably tell them, "don't go up there. Nonsense. Nothing to it." But they get beside themselves. They come anyhow and just press in. They...?... their way through every...?... until they get to Jesus. Then His reputation's made. Yes.

L-46 Here she was washing His feet. She broke the spikenard. Never just poured a little bit, she poured it all, all she had over Jesus. And all the time she was so beside herself, she was kissing His feet, constantly kissing His feet all the time.
Simon said, "Master, if you only knew what kind a woman that was."
Jesus said, "Simon, I've got something to say to you. You invited Me to your home and you didn't wash My feet. You never give Me any oil for My face. You didn't even kiss Me welcome. But this poor woman, ever since she's come in here, she's continually kissed my feet, and washed my feet with her tears, and wiped them with her hair."
