<TITLE>07. Par 49-56</TITLE>L-49 Amos, the prophet, when he come to Samaria in the day that Samaria was like Hollywood today, the women on the street, dressing, and even public adultery, how they carry on and live out there, letting man...

L-50   It's almost a public adultery, today, right before you. I went to a certain place the other night, to get something to eat, and the little boys and girls up there hugging and kissing like I don't know what.
And do you know, my little sister, that that's potentially an adultery? When a man kisses you, he has potentially committed adultery with you. You should never let him kiss you until you're married, for the glands, both male and female glands, is in the lips. Do you understand? And when male and female glands come together, let it be where it may be, you have potentially committed adultery. And you shouldn't let a boy kiss you until that veil is raised on your face and you're his wife. Don't do that! It's committing adultery. It's mixing male and female glands.

L-51 Why don't a man kiss a man, woman kiss a woman, in the lips? Because it don't cross the glands. Children is born by crossing glands.
So it's almost a public adultery again, everywhere. Look on the screens and everything you see, a--a slobbering and a--a carrying on. No wonder immorality is on the--is on the incline! How can they do it, and sperm themselves all up by kissing those women in the mouth, knowing that that's adultery! God won't forgive it unless you repent.

L-52   And now, when coming up, this great prophet, Amos. He is known as one of the minor prophets because there wasn't too much wrote of him, but he had the Word of the Lord. And he looked out upon that city, all given... In the parks, man setting with their arms around women, and women with their arms around man, just a modern Hollywood! And he walked down through that city, and said, "You'll repent or perish!" He was a nut. He had almost declared himself insane, to them.

L-53   John the Baptist, when he come on the scene. To the religious denominations of that day, he was a nut. He had the opportunity to become a priest, to follow his father's footsteps. But he refused to do it, because God had kept him out of those creeds and denominations, because his job was too important. He was to announce the Messiah coming. And when he had nothing to do with neither Pharisee, Sadducee, or whatever it was, he rejected the whole group of them, and said, "Don't you begin to say, 'We have Abraham to our father,' for I say that God is able of these stones to rise children to Abraham." To the--to the religious world of his days, he was a nut. Right.

L-54   When Jesus came on the scene. To the religious people of His days, He was also a nut. Because, they said, "You are a Samaritan. You are out of Your mind. You're a madman," in other words, "a crazy man." He was that, to the people, your Lord and Saviour.
No wonder, Paul, trained by Gamaliel to be a priest, the opportunity of someday becoming a high priest. And on his road down to Damascus, he was struck down by a supernatural Light. And he looked up, being a Jew, and knowed that Pillar of Fire was what led his people. He said, "Lord, Who are You?"
And He said, "I am Jesus."

L-55 And when he forfeit his education, he forfeit all of his theology that he had been trained in the schools, and become a regular, street preacher, he was a nut. He said, "I have become a fool."

L-56 And the people thought he was mad, beside himself. He told Festus, "I am not mad." He just knowed the Lord. But to know the Lord in a religious group...
I hope you don't miss it. To know Jesus, this day, amongst a religious group, you are a nut. It hasn't changed. I could dwell much on this, but I--I want to hurry up for the prayer line.
