<TITLE>15. Par 114-121</TITLE>L-114 Wonder if you women are willing to let your hair grow out? Wonder if you man has got enough courage to tell her that? You're supposed to be the head of the house. She's the neck, she turns you. That's contrary! Do you think a shaking revival would ever take these women out of these public offices, policemen on the streets and things? She ought to be in the kitchen. You think you'd ever be able to get her back to that again? No, sir. She'll never do it, 'less she gets saved, then she'll do it. You won't have to tell her nothing about it, she'll find her place, the Holy Ghost will lead her to her place. But say, "The Holy Ghost is leading me"? To that contrary to the Word? Don't call that the Holy Ghost.

L-115   Are you willing to pay the price? That's a Pentecostal church, are you willing to pay the price? And that's it. You see what kind of a shame we're standing in. All right. Samson, willing to pay the price to get the power of God again. Oh, I hear some of you say, "We got revival, though, Brother Branham." But what do you get after you get the revival?

L-116   Billy Graham said in his message, Louisville, Kentucky, when I sit it... with him at the breakfast, he stood up there, and took the Bible and he said, "This Bible is God's way of doing things." How true that is! But then do it, is the next thing. He said, "Paul went into a city and he made a convert, he left that convert there, one convert in a city. Next year he went back, and that convert had thirty or forty converted, and brought into Christ." He said, "I go into a city, and what do I do, have thirty thousand conversions, decisions." Said, "I come back within a year, I haven't got thirty." He said, "What's the matter?" Then he pointed to preachers, said, "It's you lazy preachers, sit with your feet up on the desk and don't go visit the people."

L-117   Now, that was a whole lot of truth in that, that's right, but it wasn't all the truth. Like the man eating watermelon, he said, give him a bite, the old darkie, and he said, "Oh, that was fine, but surely there's some more of it." And that's right.

L-118 And here's what it was. Who was me to say to that great evangelist, who was me to speak a word to a man like Billy Graham? Far be it from me. That's God's servant. I wouldn't speak about it unless he would ask me, and maybe I could say something. But I'd like to have said this, "Billy, what lazy preacher kept his feet up on the desk on Paul's conversion, the one he had? Wasn't a preacher in the country. What was it? Paul never left him on a decision. When he made his decision, he stood there with the Word of God and cut him into a son of God, then you couldn't keep him still."

L-119   That's what's the matter today, all these decisions needs to be cut down to sons and daughters of God. Clean up, and get back to the Word and back to the Gospel. Certainly, that's what we need. Yes, we have a revival today, but what is it? It's a denominational revival. The Baptist had a slogan, "A million more in '44." What'd you get? Was at a church where they was having a revival, they said, and they had to let out to give intermission for fifteen minutes, for the people to go out and smoke between Sunday school and that. And, the pastor smoked, also. The Bible said, "Cleanse yourself from all unclean habits." See? Now what are we going to do about it?

L-120   Well, you say, "It's not right." The Holy Ghost, when He comes, He'll teach you all these things. See, certainly did.

L-121 And somebody said something about Divine healing, and they claimed, "It was in another day." See, pointing off to what was. "Maybe it'll be over in the Millennium." What do you need Divine healing in the Millennium for, when you're immortal? Today is the day! This is the day.
