<TITLE>20. Par -</TITLE>L-30-3 Here we got "Our Sunday Visitor" in there from the Catholic church, telling us just exactly what it is. See? And this answer to it said, "But wait a minute." Said, "There's been all kinds of names," said, "would make 666."
I said, "But just a minute."
Said, "Your name might make six hundred, six--"
But I said, "I don't set on seven hills ruling the world though." See? See, that's right. See?
... show... the judgment of the great whore, that setteth on many waters;... (Waters, Revelations 17:15, is thickness and multitudes of people. See?)
with whom the kings of the earth have committed fornications, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of the--her fornications... (Now watch.)
And he conducted me, in the Spirit, into a desert;... ("The Emphatic Diaglott" now. See?)... and I saw a woman setting upon a scarlet clothed beast, full of blasphemous names,...
Now, in the King James says,"... full of names of blasphemy." (Just a minute--a moment, and I'll get it here in a minute. Revelations the 3rd.) All right, here it is. All right, Revelation, I meant 17, not 7, 17. Now listen at the third verse:
And he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman setting upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy,...
That's the way the English get it, but the original Greek from "The Diaglott" reads it like this in Revelations 17:3. Now, listen.
And he conducted me, in the Spirit, into a desert; and I saw a woman setting upon a scarlet colored beast--beast, full of blasphemous names,...
That's a lot different from "names of blasphemy" to "blasphemous names." What is it?

L-31-3 And we--and now, she was a mother of harlots. We all know that. Now, what is it? You don't have to be... Well, that's right. That would take the Roman Catholic church, but she's full of blasphemous names: Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian, Lutheran, and all, calling themselves churches of God: blasphemous names. Lot of difference between "names of blasphemy" and "blasphemous names." Call themselves the Church of God and represent themselves before the world, and card parties, and drinking, and carrying on, and so--and soup suppers, and everything else, and all kind of stuff till... There's only one Church. You're borned into It. You don't come in there until you're washed in the Blood of the Lamb and sealed away by the Holy Ghost. See?

L-31-4 What a difference between "names of blasphemy" and "blasphemous names." Get it? I caught that this morning when I was reading here the--coming down. Something just told me, "Go into your room; pick up 'The Diaglott.'" No, It's just obedience, that's all. Walked in, and I picked out Revelations 17. I thought, "Why do You want me to read this for?" And I started reading. As soon as I struck it, "There it is." I got a pencil and wrote it down. I said, "There it is."

L-32-1 Now, they're hollering about me kicking against organizations. It's those blasphemous names that call themselves Churches of God, and Churches of Christ, and churches of Methodist, and churches of... It's lodges, not churches. One Church, that's the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ. And what is it? The mystical Body of Jesus Christ in operation on earth, made up of a member of any of these congregations, that would be a member of Christ's Body. You have to be born into It, not joined into It. And to--to join in it is blasphemous names.

L-32-2 This woman, this woman, her power... And you see right now where they're going to take all the people that's got odd ideas about religion and send them to Alaska. You've seen that. All of our odd beliefs... And the--what is it? The Council, the World Council of Churches... And the Catholic has their big to-do going on in the Vatican now, over there to where they're trying... And all these bishops and so forth, they're trying to come to an agreement to fight communism, the world fighting communism and only joining up with Catholicism.
