<TITLE>17. Par 120-124</TITLE>L-120 How many heard Billy Graham today? It was a wonderful sermon he preached on, how that a people could believe a lie and just keep on in that lie and--and even justify themself and think that they were doing what was right. The American public taking, he said, and--and saying, "A wise man's filter, and the smoking man's cigarette," taking a one of the devil's lies, and instead of making him a fool, whatever he is, to smoke such a thing and try to make him a wise man. He's a fool to even smoke it, when the--when it's full of death and cancer and everything else, and still he puts it down his lungs. He's a fool, not a--not a wise man's filter; there is no such a thing. A wise man don't use the stuff.
"There's no life unless it's in Oertel's 92," or something like that. There's no Life outside of Christ; that's the real true Life. What makes men and women drink that stuff? Because they're trying to satisfy that thirst in there that God put in there to thirst after Him, and they're trying to satisfy it with the things of the world. And that's the reason we have those things. That's the reason people act like that, because they're trying to quench that thirst that's in them for God, and the devil's giving them death instead of Life.

L-122 ... all tables are full of vomit...
The clergymen, everything else speak of it, "It's all right to have a little clean fun." There's no such a thing.
Who shall he teach knowledge? and to whom shall he make... understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts. (Now, we're no more babies.)
For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:
For with stammering lips and other tongues will he speak to this people.
To whom he said, This is the... (What? Sabbath-keeping.)... the rest wherein ye may cause the weary... ("Come unto Me all ye that weary and heavy laden.")... may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshening: yet they would not hear.
When did that happen? Seven hundred and twelve years later when on the day of Pentecost stammering lips set upon the people, and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and begin to speak with other tongues, and the Holy Ghost took their lives over, and ceased from their worldly things. Then they entered into a rest with Christ. Paul said in Hebrews the 4th chapter, we which have entered into His rest has ceased from all worldly doings as God did on the day of His creation; He entered into His rest, and we enter in with Him as our worldly works is through. There's your real true Sabbath.

L-124 So Paul was picked up and got into that Spirit of Sabbath, and was transmitted by the Holy Ghost all the way over into the day of the Lord.
Why we got wars? Why we got troubles? Why is nation against nation? Jesus come, the Prince of Life, and they killed Him.
Here a few weeks, or even right now, there's reindeers, and Santa Clauses, and--and jingle bells, and all kinds of things hanging up, which is pagan ceremony. It's an article of the Catholic church. People paying great prices and swapping presents and things like that, pagan. Christmas is a day of worship.
