<TITLE>16. Par 58-60</TITLE>L-58 Notice. Now, this little woman, she said, "I'll support it if it's right. If it--if it's right, it's worth everything. If it isn't right, it's no good at all." So she could bring her gifts back.
Now, remember. She had a long ways to go, and she couldn't travel... She had to cross the Sahara Desert, not in a air-conditioned Cadillac, but on the back of a camel. You know how long it takes that caravan to come from where she was to Palestine? It taken them three months: ninety days, on the back of a camel. No wonder Jesus said she'll rise in the judgment day and condemn this generation. Some people won't walk across the street to see the same thing. Right.
And another thing, remember, the sons of Ishmael was robbers in the desert. And she just had a little band of soldiers, eunuchs. How easy they could've fell in on her, and killed them little eunuchs, and taken her treasures, and gone on.
But you know, if you're determined to seek God, God will make a way for you, and there's no fear at all about nothing. You just have one achievement, one thought, one motive, one objective, and that's get to God. And if God spoke to you, you'll go. I don't care what takes place. God will make a way for you to do it, if you're really anchored and know what you're speaking of. And she did.

L-59 She got her maids together and her eunuchs and all got on the camels. And she traveled, maybe, by night; it was so hot through the desert. I can imagine in the daytime, setting up under the shade somewhere, in some little oasis under some trees, taking those scrolls and reading them to see... She wanted to know when she got there if it was Scriptural.
And when she come, she didn't come like a lot of us do here. We'll go to the meeting once. The neighbors... "I got a good neighbor lives down here. They invited us, and so we'll go over. I'll set five minutes, and if he says one thing that's contrary to what I believe, I'll get right up and walk out." That shows ignorance. That don't even show good sense. Anybody that's raised good wouldn't do a thing like that.
If I went in a Buddha temple, if I went in the temple, I'd be gentleman enough to set there till at least that meeting was over. That's right.

L-60 You talk about some of the ignorance of Kentucky; talk about that state that I come from, the ignorance of those people down there. I don't know. Sometimes I wonder.
Let one of their daughters come in of a morning with her hair all twisted up, and manicure over her face, all night long with some little Ricky with a flattop haircut. I'll tell you, she'll--she'll know the next time she goes out; get a barrel slat, or a limb off of a hickory there, and just skin her down.
And I tell you, you all talking about juvenile delinquency; there's so many papers talking about it. I think it's parent delinquency, instead...?... the old golden rule hanging with all them ten commandments hanging on it... Take a young'n out there, and shuck him down a little bit, you wouldn't have so much, saying, "Poor little Ricky. You're nice. You didn't mean to do bad, Martha." She--she needs a good beating, is what she needs.
The Bible said, "Spare the rod, you spoil your child," and that's exactly right. You'll never find nothing any better.
