<TITLE>38. Par 242-250</TITLE>L-242 Then what happened? Then God said to the Holy Ghost... We'll just take it in symbol form, "Now You go forth, and You go to making love to that world, because I'm Love and You're a product of Me, so now You go make love to the world." And the big Holy Ghost, we think, come out there, just in picture form now. It wasn't that way. 'Course the Holy Ghost and God is the selfsame, purpose same, self same purpose, Person. Pardon me. And just say He throwed His wings around the earth; He begin to brooding. What's that brooding? Like the hen to her chickens, cooing, making love, "cluck, cluck, cluck." Oh.

L-243 "O life, come forth." He screamed. He looked around. "I want beauty on this earth. Come forth, light." The Holy Ghost a-moving... And when He did, I look coming, there's creeking down the hill yonder, yonder comes some calcium pouring down, and mixes with potash. What's it folding into? "Life, come forth." And a little Easter flower stuck its head up from under a rock. "Come here, Father, look at that."
"That looks good; just keep on brooding." He brood out the flowers. He brought out all the vegetation. He brought out the animal life, and birds flew out of the dust. After while, up come a man and woman; up come a man, and the man was both man and woman, not no hermaphrodite now; just--just in him.

L-245 There was a feminish spirit. When you take a man that's so sissified, he may be all right, balanced up all right, but there's something wrong. And when you take a woman, wants to chop her hair and wear a pair of overalls, and get out there, "Bless God, I tell you," there's something wrong. A woman has the feminish spirit, and a man is masculine. We know that, and you know that. Does a woman look right that's trying to be, act like a man?

L-246 Why, I set one time, I was game warden here, and I set on the bus and went up there and was smacking that woman on the leg with my hand, talking to her, and I didn't know it was a woman. She had on one of these welder's caps and a big pair of goggles like that, and I was setting right back there, and she was telling something another about something done. She said, "You know," and she said, "and last night," just as rough looking as she could be, smoking a cigarette. She said, "Last night, I tell you, that fellow slipped up on top of that thing," and said, "my he come sliding down under there." Said, "I never laughed so much in my life."
And I was laughing, you know, like that. [Brother Branham makes a slapping sound--Ed.] I said, "Boy, that was one, wasn't it?" Setting there talking like that, and if she didn't take that thing off and shake her head, and she had a mop up there that she was a woman. I never felt so little in my life. I--I said, "Are you a woman?".
She said, "Why, sure."
I said, "Pardon me." I never seen such. Now, that--that's the truth.

L-249 I seen a sign the other day liked to thrilled me. It had a big sign up, said, "Ladies, ready to wear clothes." I thought, "Praise God for that." See? But come to find out, it was just some kind of a clothes they'd already made, you know. I--I thought they was really going to put on clothes. I really did. Said, "Ladies are ready to wear clothes." I said, "Praise God for them. That's good. That's right. I sure thank the Lord for that." But, see, it was just some kind of clothes they had already made, I... Something, had be something funny (Wouldn't it?), in this country? All right.

L-250 Then when Adam come up... And then Adam looked lonesome, so He taken a rib from his side and made Eve, a byproduct for him. And He made... He taken the feminish spirit out of Adam and put it in the woman, the love spirit, feminish, kind, gentle. And He left the masculine spirit in Adam. Now, if there's anything different, there's a perversion somewhere. Now, and then they two was one.
