<TITLE>15. Par 57-60</TITLE>L-57 Oh, he knowed he had Somebody there besides Eve then. He couldn't hybrid this One. No, sir. Why? He come to breed back to Adam's race a living faith in the living Word of the living God. And He proved right there by His action, that the weakest saint on earth can beat the devil upon the written Word of God. He was God Himself manifested in flesh, had powers without limit. But He never used them. What did He do? He defeated Satan on the same thing that Satan defeated Eve on. Amen. He pulled the wool over him that time.
When he whitewashed the Word of God to Eve and she believed it... But when he come to try to whitewash it with Jesus, he failed. Yes, sir. He failed because He stayed with the Father's Word, said, "It is written, Thou shall worship the Lord thy God, and Him only shalt thou serve."
What did he do? Satan said he left Him alone, 'cause He took the Word of God. It wasn't no hybrid to Him. He was the unadulterated virgin born Son of the living God. He wasn't whitewashing Him, whitewashing the Word, wasn't hybreeding Him. No, and He--He had been borned of God. He came from God; He went to God; He stayed on God's Word. He never varied from It one bit. When He come, He performed the signs of the Messiah that the Bible said He would perform, and the unbelieving, hybrid church in that day didn't believe it.

L-58 And when He does it today, they still don't believe it, because it's hybrid. Said, "It wasn't so from the beginning." When He come, He found men teaching things that wasn't in the Bible." And then He said, "It wasn't so from the beginning." I wonder if He come today, He'd find a lot of them teaching things that wasn't in the Bible. He'd say the same thing, "It wasn't so from the beginning." It's true.
Now, we notice the things that He found. When He come He found the church... Listen, and let this soak in good and deep. When He came, what did He find? He found people looking to the church for salvation. And what were they getting? A bunch of creeds. And that's the same thing that's existing today: a bunch of man-made creeds.
Salvation comes through the Blood and that only. And if you've got salvation, Jesus Christ said, "These signs shall follow them that believe. And the works that I do shall you also." That's salvation; that's the evidence of it. It'll be the same.

L-59 Over in the heathen lands, men and women... I've seen them come up there that didn't even know which was right and left hand. And when they receive the Holy Ghost, you know what they do? The same thing you do: speak in tongues, praise God, jump up and down, carry on just like you do. It's shows that it's God.
And I want you American women to let this soak into you. You have to put on these little old dirty clothes to get out and mow the yard when the men is getting off from work, and let your daughters do the same thing.

L-60 Now, I've got two girls. They may do it sometime. But brother, when they do... Stretch out on the bank somewhere, said "for suntan." They'll get a son-tan. It'll be Mr. Charlie Branham's son with a slat in his hand. They'll get tanned all right. There's no doubt about that. That'll be my father's son that does that. See?
But now, that--that today... And they were supposed to be civilized.
I seen a lady come in the other day down at the--this Cliftons' Cafeteria. Gene, you were up there. Brother Arganbright was going to buy me a suit of clothes. And I was waiting for him 'cause I needed one. And--and he was going to buy me a suit of clothes. And I was waiting there at Clifton's, and I was waiting for him to come in.
And I seen a--a woman come in and I said, "My, that poor thing." I looked at her, and I thought, "You know..." I--I--I'd seen glaucoma; I'd seen ophthalmia; I'd seen leprosy; but I--I never seen anything like that. There's something wrong with the woman's eyes." And I thought, "Well, I believe I'll go over and ask that sister, tell her that I am a minister, and--and ask her what's wrong, and if I could pray for her."
