<TITLE>12. Par 46-48</TITLE>L-46 And that's the way I preach the Gospel. If this makes you sick, it might stir up some of your gastronomics of the Bible and get things started. That's right. That's right. We need the old fashion Gospel; we need the power of God, the Holy Ghost back in, and all the Hollywood and television stars moved out.
You know, lady, I want to say something to you. And I'm going to get to the man, just a minute. But, lady, I want to say something to you. Did you know that's an unclean spirit come on you? Do you know a little lady goes down the street all sexy-dressed, do you know that woman's going to have to answer for committing adultery? Well, she might be as pure as a lily to her boyfriend, or to her husband. But the Bible said, Jesus said, "If... Whosoever looketh upon a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart."
And then, if you dress like that and some sinner looks at you in that way, at the day of the judgment when he answers for committing adultery, it'll be with you. And it'll be your fault, because you presented yourself to him. You might not come back tomorrow night, but you're going to hear it one time. See? That's right. That's right. It's a evil, unclean spirit.
And what do you think the Holy Spirit thinks when He comes before the Father to say that His children are acting like that?

L-47 Years ago, down in the--the South when they used to take the colored people and sell them for slaves, that never was right. No, sir. God--God made man; man made slaves. And they used to come by and buy them poor people just like you would out here on the used car lot, just get a bill of sales and sell them... There used to be brokers that come by and see those people. And they'd take those great, big burly men away from their wife and breed them to a--a bigger woman, or something or other, and bring a better set of slaves.
Remember Abraham Lincoln when he took off his hat and pounded his hands like that, said, "That's wrong and someday I'll hit it." God give us a president like Abraham Lincoln again. Yes. When he said that, he was right.

L-48 I remember sometime ago, here in Illinois, I was at a museum. And I seen an old, colored man going along there, a little rim of hair around the back of his head. He was looking through a museum, and after while, he stopped, and he looked. He stooped back, and begin to cry, and tears running down his face. He was praying. I watched him for a few minutes; I walked up close to him; I said, "How do you do, Uncle?"
And he said, "How do you do?"
And I said, "I'm a minister." I said, "I would just like to know why you were praying. What excited you?"
He said, "Come here."
Looked in under a little glass and there laid a dress. I said, "It's a dress. I don't see nothing so upsetting about that, wouldn't make a man jump back and say a prayer."
He said, "But look. I've still got the marks of a slave belt around me." He said, "And that's the blood of Abraham Lincoln; and the blood of Abraham Lincoln took that slave belt off of me. Wouldn't it excite you too?"
I stood back, and I said, "If the blood of Abraham Lincoln would excite a slave from taking a belt off of him, what ought the Blood of Jesus Christ to do when it's preached in its power before a church that claims to be borned again. What should it do?"
