<TITLE>04. Par 25-37</TITLE>L-25   I'm a little hoarse, brethren. And not being a speech-maker, but just a time to get together, that you'll see what I mean, I'm here. If you catch me doing anything outside of this Word and what's promised for the today, you owe it to me to come to me, you owe it to me to come tell me. But as I say, there is one thing we can agree upon, it's Christ. We have it in common. He died for all of us. We're under that Blood.

L-26 Now, I'm not here to do nothing but to try to help each one of you man, that this community will be a better place after the revival, because we have come together for this purpose. We've come together for this, to--to get acquainted with each other, to know each other better, to have fellowship with each other. That's why I'm here this morning, that was our purpose of having this meeting here, so that we get to know one another.

L-27   Now, we do realize that through all ages its always been that way. Let a little something phenomenal be done, or something different, you have a bunch of carnal impersonations following It, then you have all kinds of superstitions. And it's just to be that way. That's the way it's supposed to be. And things are said, about That, that isn't true. We know it's always been.

L-28 Jesus was supposed to be an illegitimate child. He wasn't. He was exactly the way the Bible said. Those man who called Him that... He was the manifestation of the Word of God, made clear.

L-29 And you notice, they said, "His disciples come and stole His body away, paid off the Roman soldiers." They still believe that. But we believe and know, by His living Presence now, that He raised from the dead, and He's here with us now. We are sure and know that. Every word that He spoke of, and promised through the ages, has been fulfilled, if you'll watch it. There is nothing could do it, only God. We are His servants.

L-30   And now I thought, this morning, that I would just read a little text out of the Scripture, and speak to you brethren and sisters here, that we might just have a little come-together.

L-31 That wind ain't doing me too good up there. I... Here, here, that's all right, just let it alone right now, Brother Roy, 'cause I'm just going to stay a few minutes.

L-32   A few years ago, about fifteen years ago, I used to hunt with a man that was a barber, and he was also a chiropodist, that's, cutting calluses from feet. You know, during those times it was hard going, there was no money. And this barber friend of mine, I was combing my hair and had... He was cutting my hair, rather, and he had dandruff on the shoulder. He said, "Billy," said, "you have to... I'll have to give you a little shampoo," said, "you got so much dandruff on your coat."
And I said, "All right, Jimmy."

L-33 And he talking about coon hunting, and he reached back... I was his pastor; he taught Sunday School; he was a fine man. To get what he thought was this Lucky Tiger Shampoo, to throw on my head, and it was carbolic acid.

L-34 And I--I wore a stocking cap in my pulpit, for weeks. Today, that still bothers me, see, just that little... See, my scalp is still soft, you see.

L-35 And, no, that--that--that's all right now, because it was that last night, and I just get choked up.

L-36 My wife bought me a piece of hair to wear. I couldn't wear a hat in the pulpit, it's disrespectable to Christ. If you wear a little cap, they say, "You want to be a bishop." And it's just a problem. She bought it for me, but I haven't ever had the nerve to wear it. I wish I did, but I--I haven't. But I'm afraid it'd reflect something, and, you know. And--and I'll just have to let it go, I guess.

L-37   And now I just want to read some of the Scripture. Where, God's Word never fails; mine will. But I want you to remember this, that in each age that...
