<TITLE>09. Par 27-30</TITLE>L-27 So they all come out with one accord and with, "Oh, the Lord said, 'Go up; He's with you.'"
Ahab said, "You see, sure, we're going up."
But you know, there was something about a spiritual man, when it's... No matter how many says "yes," if it's contrary to the Word, that man don't believe it. Jehoshaphat said, "Well, how many you got out there?"
He said, "Four hundred. And they're all seminary students; they're great men; and with one accord they're giving us the right, oh, we've just got to win."
And he said, "But--but--but--but a--brother haven't you got one more?"
"Well, what do you need one more for? Here's four hundred, the best; what would one more make any difference, if you got four hundred saying yes?"
"Well, while...?... said, "But you know, haven't you just got one more?"
He said, "Yes, I got a holy-roller down here." But he... Well, he's a holy-roller; he was an outcast, you know," he said--he said, "I got one down here, but I hate him." Oh, yeah, sure, got to, he stepped on his corns all the time. Kinda rough scuffs him around a little bit. He said, "I'll tell you before comes that I hate him." He said, "Because he's always saying evil against me." Sure, what else could he do? The Word said evil against him.

L-28 So how could I hold my peace about Christian women painting up? How do I hold my peace of the weakness of the Christian church when the Word's against it? Sure, it is. The Word's against it. I don't care what the pastor says; the Word says so; let's stay on the Word. Oh, how they was giving one consent, that it was all right to go ahead and do it. "Oh, that's all right; it ain't going to hurt nothing; don't believe them, he's--he's weak minded."
But Micaiah had the truth. That's what we want, is the truth. And so if the Word hurts, circumcised, or who It cuts off, we want the truth, "You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." Amen. Oh, sure.

L-29 Oh, he said, "They... Look who they got; they got that group of holy-rollers up there now." Listen to him now, said... I want you to notice, before he got there, they sent a committee to meet him, and said, "Now, look, all the theological seminary boys are up there, and they everyone told the king it was all right for him to go do what he wants to do. Now, Micaiah, don't you say anything contrary to what they say. Now, he wants to unite together now. You want to say the same thing he says."
If it would've been according to the Word, it would've been right; but it was contrary to the Word. That's right. Like a minister here not long ago was saying; he was going--evangelist going to a church to hold a--a meeting. And I hope you don't take this for a joke, because it's no place for a joke; it was absolutely told to me for the truth. And it was supposed to be in a fine denominational church.

L-30 And the deacon board met him down at a certain place on the train and got on and said, "Are you the evangelist?"
He said, "I am." He was reading his Bible, writing down some notes as he studied and prayed.
He said, "Now, we was sent as a committee from the church to tell you now, a few things about our church."
He said, "All right, I'd like to hear them. Before I get there I'd know how to approach the church and the people." He said, "I want to be a blessing to you while I'm there."
Said, "All right, that's what we want you to be. Now, we'll just say to you, evangelist, that, don't say anything about horse racing." Said, "Because the pastor owns a race horse." And he said, "And he bets on the races all the time. And we would not have you to hurt our pastor's feelings at all."
