<TITLE>17. Par 61-63</TITLE>L-61 On my home they had the ten commandments hanging up over the door on a hickory stick about that long. And, brother, I had all ten of them across my back, and up and down my legs, pretty near every day. It done me good though.
I'll tell you, pop took me out behind the house, and I danced a little jig. But I knowed not to do it the next time, when he got through with me.
There'd be a whole lot better life, if we had some more daddies to do that today. He never struck me one lick but what I honor him tonight for it. When I looked in the casket, and seen his gray hair on the side of his head, I stood there and tears dropped upon his face. I said, "Daddy, I helped put them there. God help me." That's right. I respected my daddy. He was a daddy that would make me do right. Yes, sir. We need more like that today.

L-62 Now, she come up. She stopped in front of the--the palace. She unloaded her camels, and put her maids down there, and put up her tents. And she come to stay till she was convinced. Oh, brother, no wonder she'll condemn this generation. See? She come to stay till she was convinced. And she waited.
Now, the first morning, I can hear the trumpets sounding, the bells a ringing. And the little queen dressed herself, went in, and maybe she had to take a seat way back in the back. And everything went along fine, all the singing, and all the choir sang. Then Pastor Solomon walked out into the pulpit. And she noticed, how marvelous... Her little heart begin to burn. Well, that day, maybe at the book stand, she must've bought some books on it. She went back out that night, and she read, and she read. The next day, she... day after day...

L-63 Finally her prayer card was called. She didn't even blow up about it. She waited till her turn. And when it come to a place to when she stood before Solomon, the Bible said that there was nothing hid from Solomon but what he made known to her. Amen. Solomon, a spirit of discernment told her the secrets of her heart. Jesus said that that queen will rise in the judgment and condemn that generation, 'cause a greater than Solomon was there.
Look what she said. (We're closing.) Look what she said. She said, "All that I heard was right, and more than I heard." See, the miracle had been performed on her then. See, she was from plumb down in Sheba, and he was a Jew up here. And so, he knowed nothing about her. But when she stood in his presence, he revealed all the secrets of her heart, told her the things that she wanted to know. Everything was in her heart, God made Solomon know about it.
