<TITLE>11. Par 38-40</TITLE>L-38 Now, it seemingly, she must--she might have had a right to upbraid Him and--and speak evil to Him. Why, she didn't run up and say, "Looky here, looky here, You. You're supposed to be a prophet, a Man of God. Why didn't You come when we called You? Why, we're the laughing stock of the town now. We come out of our church to follow You." Seemed like she had a right. But you know, just like I preached on, "The Lamb and Dove," if we're a lamb, a lamb forfeits every right he's got. It's exactly right. He ain't got nothing but wool, so he has to forfeit that. And you forfeit every right that you've got to serve God. That's exactly right.
I was getting after the women about the way they was wearing these little old clothes, you know, and they said, "Well, we're--we're Americans. We can do what we want to."
I said, "That's exactly right, but if you're a lamb, you'll forfeit your rights." Smoking cigarettes and carrying on like that, that's the worst thing a woman ever done. That's exactly right.

L-39 A lady said to me, not long ago, talking... she said, "But, Brother Branham, they don't make no other kind of clothes."
I said, "But they still make sewing machines and sell goods. There's no excuse for it at all." That's exactly right.
Remember, someday, you may be pure here to your husband, but you'll answer for adultery for it, just as certainly: "Whosoever looketh upon a woman to lust after her, has committed adultery with her already in his heart."

L-40 What's the matter with the Pentecostal women today, is what I'm a wondering. How you have got away from the old hewing line. How your mothers used to wear long hair, and today the Pentecost women paint up like a bunch of Mardi Gras, and cut their hair, and wear little old short clothes like that, just like the rest of the wo... Get out and mow the yard in the afternoon, when men's coming by, do you realize, woman, that you're going to have to answer for committing adultery with them men? You present yourself to them for that purpose. It's a evil spirit on the church and the people, and they don't know it. Blind and don't know it. It's the truth.
Maybe you might say I haven't got a right to say that as evangelist. Well, I--I have to follow the leading of the Holy Spirit; that's all I can say. You... If I meet you at judgment, then I won't have to have your blood on my hands. Get away from every bit of the ground that looks like Satan. Stay away from it. Get from it. I don't care how many television stars... You're not here, a television star; you're a daughter of God.
