<TITLE>13. Par 48-50</TITLE>L-48 I heard somebody laughing. I looked over to my right and there set an old woman, old enough to be my grandmother. She was at least sixty years old, or maybe more. And she was setting there with them little bitty clothes on, this shorts or ever what they call it. And she was... Her flesh was so wrinkled till her arms was wrinkled down, and she had that--so much of this manicure, ever what you put on your lips, on, ever what that stuff is, and all over her eyes like this. And her hair was cut off and painted; she had it... I don't blame a woman from looking her best, but don't look like the devil while you're trying to look your best. Look like a lady, like God made you.
And then when she had her hair painted blue. And I thought, "Oh, my, looky there..." And two old drunk men setting there, it summertime, one of them with a big overcoat on, an old army overcoat, and a--a rag wrapped around his neck for a scarf. And they were so drunk, setting there with this old lady.
I stood there and I said, "God, do you mean that my little Becky and Sarah setting back there tonight, is going to have to come up under such stuff as that? How can You look at such stuff? You're holy; how can You look at it? If my heart, just as a minister, burns," I said, "why don't You wipe the thing off? How can You do that, stand and look, a holy God look at such as that?" The old man got up and made some kind of remark. And they--two men took off to the rest room.

L-49 I stood there a little bit, and I thought, "I'll get out of this dump." And I said, "I'd rather do without than try to eat here, diseases and everything else and filth." So I turned around and started out, and the Holy Spirit spoke to me. I'll never forget that day. I went in behind the door. I saw a vision of the world turning. I seen around the world, a scarlet streak, just the same kind of visions I see here at the platform. And I looked and there set Jesus. And I seen my sins coming up against Him. And I seen a book laying there that it had my name on it. And every time I'd do anything wrong, no matter what it was, His Blood, side acted like a bumper on a car; it stopped the wrath of God from hitting me. I seen the tears running down His cheeks, the Blood on His face. I looked at it, I thought, "Oh Lord, does my sins hurt You like that?" And I seen then if He didn't hold them off, the very time I committed anything wrong, God would take my life. But the Blood of Jesus was holding it off. See? He can't see me as long as there's a offering there for me.

L-50 When Jesus died, He cleansed all the world of sin, but you have to accept it. You have to accept your pardoning, or God would destroy the world. The very first sin was committed God would rock her off of her place, 'cause He's holy. And His Words are right.
Before He could even talk to Adam and Eve He had to make a sin offering there with a lamb. That's the reason that they can have rocks-and-rolls and all kinds of vulgar in the world tonight, and God doesn't take their life, or skip the world off, is because that Blood is a laying on the mercy seat. But one of these days that's Blood's coming off the mercy seat and then it's judgment. I don't know; it may be off before that clock gets nine-thirty. I don't know. Then she'll be dark and there'll be nothing but judgment. You've passed your own judgment with the attitude you taken towards His Son and the atonement.
