<TITLE>22. Par 179-184</TITLE>L-179 After while the years pass by. "How's he getting along?"
"Oh, my, he's even growing in grace. Oooh, my, he just... He's shelling the woods. I'm telling You; he--he's really... Why, he takes them sheep, can handle them just--just like You do. He will never give them seaweeds. He will never give them ironweeds. When they come around, saying, 'we want to join the churches,' you say, 'Shut your mouth, you don't need that. No, sir. Here's what you need, "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the Name of Jesus Christ, for the remission of your sins. You shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.' Yes, Sir, there's what he said."
"Oh, does he really say that?"
"Yes, Sir, he sure does."
"Well, that's just the way I wrote It."
"That's just the way he says It."
"Hmm, yes, Sir."

L-180 Some of them said, "Tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem till you're endued with power from on high. After that the Holy Ghost come upon you be witness of Me in Jerusalem, Judaea, and Samaria, and uttermost parts of the world." When he read that, he  hollered, 'Hallelujah, that's what you need!'" You know what he does? He just gets them right down there till they get it, that's all, stays right with them."
"And if they start fussing, he say, 'Whoop. whoop, whoop, wait a minute, wait a minute. That's the way goats act, not sheep. See, see? Oh, sometimes they get a little peeved at him, but he kind of pats them on the back a little bit, say, "Wait a minute, sh-sh, sh, sh, sh. It's all right." He really knows how to control them sheep. Yes, Sir, I tell You.'"

L-182 "You know what? I seen Archbishop So-and-so tell him this: he--he couldn't come to this town and hold a meeting.' But, you know, I kind of led him; I said, 'Go anyhow.' (See?)
"Withdraw these tapes, and don't you let them go out."
"They went anyhow. Went over in these towns here, said, 'Well, we won't spon...'"
"And you know the devil got down there said, 'I bet you I can keep him out of that town.' I said, 'Can't do it. If I tell him to go, he will go. I bet you he will go.' 'No, no, no, no, no, I'll tell him. I'll go down and say, "Now, all my agents, you all gather together. You don't want that old fanaticism down here, all that old Divine healing and that old Holy Ghost stuff. That passed back with the apostles years ago. You know that's no good, back there. Trying to give them them old ironweeds, everything like that." They--they...

L-184 "But You know what, he went right on down there anyway. Went right on down there and begin to throw out alfalfa. And come back, You know what, them sheep started eating, they're getting as fat as they can be. Yes, Sir. Why, they're having healings and meetings and, You know, a lot of them young fellows begin... Why, they seen if they got a big bunch of hay like that alfalfa. You wonder what they done with it, it was so good till they run over to the neighbors, said, 'Taste This! Taste This!' They said. 'Teen-agers, get ready...?...' Yes Sir, like this. Right here. Here It is right here. Right here It is. See? Now, just repent, every one of you, and be baptized in the Name of Jesus, you can get the Holy Ghost. It's for whosoever will, let him come, let him come here to see what the Bible said.' See? And they're just having a great time down there."
"Oh, that's My son! That's My boy. Well, You think he's well matured?"
