<TITLE>13. Par 40-42</TITLE>L-40 Now, the next thing we know, this little deer wanting to wander out from the flock where she had protection, away from the church where she gets the Holy Spirit, through the preaching of the Word. We're washed through the Water of the Word. And then if you get away, and start staying home from church and watching television on Wednesday night when you got a prayer meeting going on, right then you're on your road out. When your desires is become more to see some television program than it does to hear the Gospel, there's something wrong in your soul. That's right. It's true.
[One speaks with tongues; another interprets--Ed.] Amen. Now, if I understand the Scriptures right, one man speaking with an unknown language to himself, and another one interpreting it back... One man not knowing what he's speaking, the other not knowing what he's saying, but the voice is interpreted to us a call from God. That's right. "Look unto Me," He said, "all the ends... I am the Healer, the One that gives life, the vision of life." He is Life. Oh, how we thank Him that we have the opportunity to come to the Fountain that's filled with Blood drawn from Immanuel's veins.

L-41 This little deer, just to finish that. If that wolf makes a jump to that little deer... He's got two blood fangs. And he will grab that little deer right behind the ear. And he will sink those fangs in, and then swing his weight. And those big fangs will cut that little deer's neck. And he will make a leap and then fall, and covered over with dogs in a few minutes, wolves, to pick the bones of the little fellow.
And that's the way Satan does it. If he can ever get close enough to you to once wrap you into there, the hounds of hell will jump right on, and pick everything there is about you off--all your morals, and all, everything you've got. You'll lay bleached and defiled before God.

L-42 Now, sometimes if the little deer's on the job, very smart... See, or see the deer--the dog coming, she'll jump. And when she does, the dog will... He's going to miss the ear, the jugular vein here, he will grab her in the side.
Well, that's about the middle balance of the deer. The hindquarters is heavier than the front, but the front has a neck and head. So that's about the middle of the deer. He will grab it. He will shake back and forth like that, and the deer can't run. It's out of balance and it'll fall. And then, he's covered again by the dogs.
Now, if the little deer is on to its job, and as soon as the dog grabs it in the flank, if she'll jerk sideways real quick, or raise up just make a hind slide jump and not try to run, just jump up, or jump sideways, the piece of meat will pull out of the dog's--with the dog's mouth. Then she's got to run for life.
That's what David is speaking of. Did you ever see a wounded deer?
Down in the south, they hunt them with dogs. I think that's a bad thing. But they hunt them with dogs. And when a deer's wounded, if that deer can ever get to water, it'll live. You'll never catch it. Because he will keep drinking water, and it'll curdle the blood, and he won't bleed no more.
