<TITLE>17. Par 58-60</TITLE>L-58 One night while preaching, I thought I condemned sin in every way that I could condemn it in. I combed it over and over, till I wondered if the congregation would ever come back. And I thought, "My, surely I've covered everything. God, when I meet you there, I can say I told them the truth."
And as I went away, there was a lady, real flippy-like, walked up to me, and she said, "Well, preacher, you never struck me tonight. That's one thing; not one thing you said ever bothered me. I'm above everything."
Well, I thought that lady was in pretty good shape. She went flipping on away, like that, strutting down along the aisle. I said, "Well, praise the Lord. I'm sure glad of that." She went on out.
Some elderly ladies was standing there. I said, "Do you know her?"
Said, "Sure." Said, "She's the biggest gossiper there is in town." You never said anything about gossip. There you are. See? Oh, my.
But remember, brother, no matter what it is, what little sin there is, lay it aside. If I haven't struck it, may the Holy Spirit strike it to your heart tonight and mine. Maybe it's unbelief; maybe it's doubting; maybe it's skeptic. If it is, may God lay it to your heart, and we have a old fashion revival coming up this coming week.

L-59 May the Lord grant, as we bow our heads. I'm going to ask the little sister if she'll come to the piano, and organ, whatever, and give us just a chord, if you will, sister dear, while I ask for this altar call.
Now, it's early yet tonight, and I want to know, while you have your heads bowed, while I offer this word of prayer for everyone...
Now, heavenly Father, harshly have I condemned sin. In every way that come on my mind, I let it go through this microphone. Everything that I thought of, that You put in my mind, I said it right out. It might have offended some, but at the day of the judgment, I can say I'm innocent. I preached the Word just as You gave It.

L-60 And now, there's no doubt there's just many fine lovely people setting here, prayed up, filled with Holy Spirit, no condemnation in their heart, living daily before the Lord. If He should call them, they'd be ready to go.
But to do my part to preach the Gospel, to call the colors of the Gospel, and show where Christ died for, what it is when He comes to us. Then, Lord Jesus, if there's setting here under condemnation, You're the Judge, not I. The Word's gone forth; It's the judge. And You are the Word.
Now, Father, if there's someone here who isn't living just right, and knows if You would send Jesus to the earth tonight, they'd be condemned and lost... They might think it's strange, standing out under the tent in this hot weather to preach the old fashion, rough, sin-killing, stirring... Not no gloves on, handling it bare-handed, laying it right out where it belongs...
