<TITLE>21. Par 146-150</TITLE>L-146   Try to stop her? You think Noah's preaching had any hindrance? No, sir. But what is it? It's a voice, the Voice. And when we're all called to the Judgment, the very Message that I'm preaching, tonight, will meet me right there, Word by Word. And then what are you going to do? It's a flashing red Light.

L-147 There was a time, bull-headed amongst the women. We're going to... We will just set this, because of this being women. And you wonder why I'm always hollering about this. Now I'm going to lay, get a lot--lot of Scriptures throwed in here before closing, and show you why. And that's the reason I've got to stay true to this Word, and every servant of God ought to stay true to the Word. You must stay, because there's got to be a voice somewhere crying out against it. I don't care what the rest of them does; you're not responsible for them. You answer as an individual. You don't answer as a Methodist, you don't answer as a Baptist, or a Pentecostal. You answer as an individual, to God, for your own life.

L-148   And we see these signs, and yet they go on doing it. Tell her it's wrong, see what she says. Bull-headed! That's exactly what Eve done. Eve knowed better than to do that. Did she? She had the Word of God. Said, "The day you eat thereof, that day you die." Well, why did she do it? She wanted her own way. And why will women cut their hair; why will women wear these clothes, and the Bible saying that that's just exactly what they're supposed to do? And the thing that they're doing, they're all condemned. Exactly. But why does she do it? She's got her own self. Yes, sir. She is going to have her own way. And the church says nothing about it. And the church is supposed to be the Bride of Jesus Christ, and say nothing about it?

L-149   Tell one of them about it, you know what they say? In so much as to say, "No old Bible is going to stand in my way from having some fun." Now just exactly. You tell them it's written in the Bible. Oh, they might not say those words, but that's what they express.
Did you ever hear the old saying, "Actions speak louder than words"? Well, then, does it? Actions speaks louder than words. No matter what you're saying, your--your life speaks so loud till they can't hear your testimony. As I said this morning, just jump as high as you live. See? Your actions speaks louder than your words. And you just might as well come out and say it, because their own words speak. Your--your words, no matter what it is, your actions speaks what--what you are.
If you speak anything different than what you really are, it becomes hypocrisy. Jesus said, "You hypocrites! How can you say good things, when out of the heart speaks, out of the heart speaketh the mouth?" See, they were saying something they didn't mean.
And women so, is to say it, oh, my, "Have my own fun."

L-150   What happens? Out of marriage... Here is another place in the Bible. Out of marriage goes the vow, "obey." Obey? "A keeper at home, chaste, of good works."
She laughs in your face and goes to the powder plant, somebody's office. "My husband..." Yeah. Oh, I doubt that.
You see forces today, such a disgrace, put women on the police force. If that isn't a mark of--of debauchery among any city! As many man is out of work, and they have to put them women out there, when the Bible said she is to "stay home and be a chaste keeper at home." But she keeps all the boss' books, and yours, too. Yes. That's right.
I ain't talking about good women now. I'm not throwing this to you women that's really godly women. God bless you. That's on tape, or wherever more.
But I'm talking about, where you find one like that, you find fifteen hundred the other way. They won't listen to a Word. "Keep your Bible! Preach It to yourself. We don't want to hear It." Obey? Oh!
