<TITLE>18. Par -</TITLE>L-671-137 And for men kissing one another, if you kiss your brother on the neck, and you want to do it, that's all right. Don't kiss no man in the lips, and on the mouth, or anything like that, because that's--that's not right. See? No, that--that shows there's a little something wrong to begin with. See? So just stay away from there; shun that. Don't--don't start that around this tabernacle here. No, we'll certainly won't stand for that at all. See?

And they just washed with some kind of a compound, and it'd nearly take the hide off of you.
So then we... They told us they was going to take us over for a Finnish sauna. And we went over to the YMCA. And we went over there to take a sauna. That's that Finnish, famous Finnish bath. And I'd had them before, and they were nice. But I thought "Well, we're going to... at the YMCA, so it'd be fine."
But when I started over there, the Holy Spirit said to me, "Don't you do it." Oh, it's so good to have the Holy Spirit. "Don't you do it."
Well, I just right then, I said, "I don't believe I want a bath this morning."
