<TITLE>13. Par 40-42</TITLE>L-40 I seen something one day that astounded me. A little boy with a toe about that big, about that big around, dragging his little club foot, a man with no arms from leprosy. And so, I was throwing rupees out to see what they would do with it. I thought, "Billy," said to my son, "how would that poor man ever pick it up, and them screaming mothers with their little babies, and their little bellies swelled out like this was starving to death. She'd do anything. She don't mind dying, but, oh, feed that baby. There's four-hundred-and-seventy-million of them. And almost four-hundred-million beggars. And here we are today, dressed in... God's servant sitting here and fussing and arguing about little difference in our denominations and millions dying every day out there that's never heard the Gospel one time.

L-41 When I throwed my films on the other night and seen those poor little African boys there, that had never had a decent meal in their life, and their little arms mangy and naked, and all kind of conditions, holding their hands up and wanting me to tell them of Jesus once more before leaving... And then to think that we would argue about whether we should be this way or that way, or whether we should be Presbyterian or Baptist. Oh, shame on us, men of God. How we different and split and ideas and such as that going on and Jesus died. That little boy has got just as much right to eat good food and wear good clothes as my children has or your children has. He's a product of God, that God created, and he's God's creation.
And it's not right for us with our great fine churches, and building millions of dollars of churches, and putting tens of thousands of dollars pipe organs in them, and the missionaries begging for money to go to the field to bring the Gospel, and preaching the Lord's coming soon. Brethren, something is wrong. You know that is right.

L-42 And look here. I'd like to say something to you with reverence and respect. What may... India's going to turn communism pretty soon if you don't watch. Why is it? Because that we have put the penny march for the missionary to go over, and give our money to the bureaucrats and so forth like that, in the guise and things in this nation. And we have been weighed in the balance and found wanting.
When that man sets there and his arms folded, and this man come by and shun him and walked past... And yet the missionary tries to tell him that he is our brother. And would we treat a brother like that because of his color? Because of his nationality? Oh, brother. Don't you see that same arrogant spirit gets amongst denominations and denies Christian brotherhood in the same way.
We are the products of God every one of us, and we should be brothers, closely knitted together by the Gospel. In our motives, and our ideas, and everything, we should give to God for the--the relief, and the furthering of the Gospel, and the bringing together of a brotherhood and the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ.
