<TITLE>03. Par 18-27</TITLE>L-18   But I always say, "Jesus Christ has made you whole," that's exactly the Truth. "He was wounded for our transgressions, with His stripes we were healed." See? See?

L-19 But when It comes, "THUS SAITH THE LORD," and tells you what to do and what's going to happen, watch that, it'll be that way.

L-20 But when I say, "Jesus Christ heals you and makes you whole," you believe it, 'cause He's already said it. I'm just repeating what He said.

L-21 And a vision is just repeating what He showed. You understand?

L-22   Now may we hurry up and get right into the Word, because I know that many of you are here, got long miles to travel tonight. I pray that God will bless you, help you and protect you along the roads. And now I wish to turn tonight to Saint Matthew, the 21st chapter, and verses 1 to 11, in Saint Matthew. And, now, if you don't have your Bible, or if you want to jot down these Scriptures, all right.

L-23   And now to you who never heard the Message this morning, and you have a tape recorder; we never solicit, selling tapes. We never solicit, selling anything. Sometimes in a big meeting they'll announce they got some books back there; we don't make anything out of them. Brother Vayle is the writer. The tapes, the man that operates the tape business there will tell you, we don't make no tape money. We don't... It ain't "the tapes"; it's the Message. And when a man gets on his mind that it's money, he ain't going to make tapes no more. That's right. I was asking about it, I think our tapes sell about, under five dollars, or something, three to five, or something like that. What say? Three and four, for them big, long tapes.

L-24 And a certain minister, I asked about one of his tapes, and it was nine dollars, about twenty minutes or thirty, of a message.

L-25   So I see that our Brother Sothmann back there is not getting rich, any of them, on these tapes that they're--they're putting out. See, they make just enough to get by on it. Can't ask them to make them for nothing, because they have to buy the tapes and everything else. And the machinery is very expensive, costs about ten thousand dollars to get set up to make those tapes, to begin with.

L-26 Now, I understand soon I... have announced it yet. But there's a tape hearing again. Every so often we... the trustees, I have nothing to do with it at all. I don't even... never at none of the meetings. It's neither--neither pro nor con. They turn in their bids; the trustees decide who is the next man to make tapes, and they send him a letter. That's all I know about it. They take care of that, because I can't even dedicate babies let alone take care of tapes, so, or baptize.

L-27   So I've got my mind set on this Message, that's that Third Pull, and it's the one I must be loyal and reverent to.
