<TITLE>36. Par -</TITLE>L-566-Q-120 All right, and I think... Now, this is the last one till we get to these here.
 120. Brother Branham, can--can any of these... Brother Branham, any of these questions... It's wrote by typewriter and it's pretty near rubbed out. Can any of these ques... Brother Branham, any of these questions that you don't feel led to answer or commit on--or comment on (yeah), comment on, lay aside, I won't feel bad at all. What is the full duties of a deacon according to the Scripture?
Well, I--I believe they got that out there. If it's... I know it's one of the deacons of our church. So I believe they got a order of it there. We ought to get some more of them copies up and give to each one of our deacons if we haven't got it. Wonder if we could get a copy of that, Gene, one--or, you or Brother Leo, or some of them, about... Get about six or eight of them and give them to our deacons. That gives the duties, Scripturally, what a deacon's to do.

L-567-Q-121  121. In case we should have a prophecy or a message in tongues out of order, just how should we correct it?
Now, that's a good case of emergency. See, see? Now, bless you, deacon who mentioned this, 'cause this is a good thing. You want to handle it with rubber gloves. Now, if you give a... If someone comes in in our congregation here and gives a message or a prophecy out of order, there isn't hardly anything that you can do about it if they're on the floor. See? You just... They know they're out of order and it'll--it'll--may ruin the service. See? But if it does, just best thing to do, for the deacons, is just to keep quiet. See? Because the prophet on the platform is the one that actually's... You're--you're his protection; you're his policemen. See? You're the guards around. See?
Now, if it's someone in our cong... If it's out of our congregation, the person's untrained. See? They're not trained. That's what we're trying to get in here (See?), that we--we know what to do. We know how to train our people. But if it's--if it's out of our congregation, well, we don't know how that poor person's trained.

L-567-359 For instance, like... Billy remembers this, Costa Mesa, California. Every time when I'd get ready to make an altar call there'd be a woman jump up, and run up and down them aisles, speaking in tongues, and she'd just tear that altar call to pieces. And I'd just have to walk out. You could see the Spirit done--done grieved. You see? Nothing will grieve the Spirit of God if it's in order. See? [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]... just before she got ready to start, how she'd get herself ready, 'cause I watched her. Any minister will do that when he sees anything out of order. Then this woman was back there, and she told Billy, and Billy told me when I was coming in that night, said, "Daddy, you know that woman that's broke them--them altar call, two nights?"
"Yeah."
Said, "She was setting out there," said, "she said, 'Glory to God, Billy, I got another message tonight.'"
Well, now you see? I watched her down over the audience. There was thousands of people there; that's when the "Reader's Digest" wrote up that about the healing of Donny Morton, you know, "The Miracle of Donny Morton." So I watched that woman, and just about the time I started to make my altar call, she... Now, she was just untrained: no doubt, a good woman. But she looked around, she started fixing her hair. She had bobbed hair. See? So you see, she belonged to the Assemblies or some of them churches that--that permitted that. She was fixing her hair up. She reached down and pulled up her stockings, got ready like that. And just about time I started to make the altar... I said, "Now, how many in here... How many is there present now that would like to come forward and--and give their hearts to the Lord Jesus."
