Knoweth It Not #1

Bro. Lee Vayle – October 12, 1983

	Shall we pray. Heavenly Father, we’re very happy to be here in the
house that You’ve given us, set aside for worship in this hour,
believing, Lord, that it could well be the last place we’ll ever
gather together this side of the golden shore, and we’re happy to know
that too, that time is running out, that after six thousand years we are
here to see the end of the ages, to see the golden dawn break, to see
the household of God come together, to see the purpose of God manifested
as never before. We appreciate that very much, Lord, that we’ve been
allowed a part in it, and we pray, Lord, because we’ve been allowed a
part we might truly manifest that we are a privileged people by
acquiescing, bowing at all times, Lord, to the leading of the Spirit, to
not just live in that realm, but to walk in the Spirit of God also. May
we conform, Lord, to Your image in all respects and all ways, in
Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen. You may be seated.

	Well it’s certainly nice to be here with you all, and see Bro. and
Sis. Kocourek and the …?... brother, and all the good friends that are
here, it’s very, very wonderful. 

1.	Now I don’t know just how far I’m going to get tonight in reading
from Knoweth It Not, but we’ll just take it as it comes and comment on
it as we go along, if the Lord enables us. 

	And Bro. Branham says, [And Knoweth It Not, 08/15/65]

[35]	And now let us read from Revelations the 3rd chapter, just a
portion, to say that we read the Bible. Because, what I say might fail,
but what He says won't fail. I don't know where to start from, what to
do, where to go, but let us read the Laodicea Church Age. (Verses
14-19.) … and unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write;
These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the
beginning of the creation of God; I know thy works, that thou art
neither cold nor hot: I would that thou wert cold or hot. So then
because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee
out of my mouth. Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with
goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not thou are wretched,…
miserable,… poor, and blind, and naked: I counsel thee to buy of me
gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment,
that thou mayest be clothed, and the shame of thy nakedness do not
appear; (and of course where he says) anoint thine eyes with eyesalve,
(it means the same thing, to come for the eyesalve, which is bread
crumbs, it’s a poultice, the Word of God,) that thou mayest see. (Now
you notice that all the things that they’re lacking are literally
available and there will be those who avail themselves of, without
doubt.) As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore,
and repent. 

	And repent of course is the change of the mind and this is the age of
the eagle, the mind age, this is the age of the changing of the mind.
Many people are a little afraid, because they find themselves growing in
a knowledge, and they think, “Well, what is this anyway? I’m just
not where I was, because I don’t think the same way.” Well that’s
wonderful. That’s good that you don’t, because you’re not supposed
to. You’re supposed to have a fuller revelation. 

2.	Now he says, 

[36]	You know, somewhere in there, I was reading,… If you'll excuse me
just a minute, I found some place that sounded good to me, I don't know
just where it was at now. Here it is. … and knowest not that thou art
wretched,… miserable,… poor,… blind, and naked: 

[37]	Oh, my, that is the kind of picture here of the church today!
…being that is the Laodicean Church that we're in, let's just look at
the conditions.

	Now you know that some people are still not convinced that we’re in
Laodicea. They think we’re in… the Philadelphian Age, is why you
have so much of this constant haranguing, how you’re supposed to love.
Now you know that we are supposed to love. But you understand that there
is a love that we know of today, that the people perhaps years ago
practiced without understanding it. But we’re in the age of the
knowledge of all the mysteries and all of these things that are unfolded
to us. And so through the prophet we know we’re in the worst age that
there ever was, there’s really nothing good said about it at all,
except that there is a door open to us. Now he said, 

[38]	I don't want to take a text or anything, … just talk casually,
…whatever the Lord would lead us to, but wanting something that would
help us. 

[39]	Let's think of the Laodicean Church Age and its condition today.
(Now he’s going to describe it, so you keep that in mind as we go
along.) As far as I know, I don't see anything to hinder, at this time,
the Coming of the Lord, outside the readiness of His Church. I think
that’s one of the prophesies… 

3.	In plain English he’s telling you, if this is that age, you can
expect the wind up. Now he did bring us the Seventh Seal, which is the
beginning of the end. Now:

[44]	As I said a few Sundays ago: look where you're at, see, nothing but
just a crooked mass of everything. But a righteous king can make his own
laws. You can kill a man; you’re known good in politics, that's all
right, you can get out of it. 

[45]	The democracy is a good idea, but it won't work. Like communism,
all things in common; sounds good, but it won't work. No. God's way of
having a king, like David, was right, (Now of course that’s the
Millennium, we’re coming into it.) you’ve got mind centered over.
Like one leader and a bunch of geese, or so forth, you can't get two or
three of them. Then, you mess them all together, you come up with any
kind of an idea. 

[46]	So we find the conditions, today, ready for the Coming of the Lord.
(In other words they’re ready for the Lord to take over as the
Leader.)

	Now you notice he says you don’t get two or three to lead. Because
after all, if two or three people led, there’d have to be somebody –
they’d have to sit down and then come to a principle where the one
person would have the authority and the rest would blend in to help
enforce the authority. Well, why bother? Why just not get one person?
How’d you like two honkers in the geese party? And here they’re
going to take off from the pond now and they’re going to fly south,
and you’ve got two or three, you know, flapping their wings and
honk-honk-honking and… Well listen, if you’ve got one leader, then
number two follows and number three follows, you’ve only got one.
It’s just what they said, what the – I forget who it was in South
Africa – he said, “If Moses had been a committee the children of
Israel would still be in Egypt.” 

4.	And what you’re looking at here is what Plato said, benevolent
dictatorship is the finest form of government. Now of course what you
have is the poor old dictator, the poor old king, he’s got a problem,
because you see he cannot deal with issues which would cause the people
to be subject to what is right. They’re subject to greed and
everything else. Well this Kingdom we’re coming into, bless God, is
not made up of a bunch of people that are subject to the carnal whims
and realities or things as we have today, but they’re going to be
people who either died, and came back with the glorious change, or
they’re going to be glorious change and not die. And then you see
we’re going to be in a new Kingdom with one Person ruling. 

	See that’s the thing where he’s trying to tell you here, that
there’s one person got to have an answer. Now that’s a key to what
he’s talking about here to the people, he as a prophet has the key.
And he’s going to tell you and you’re going to listen. Now you watch
after awhile how this woman, the church, listens. Oh she’s got ears
the size of a pinpoint and a mouth like a washtub. But it doesn’t do
her any good, she spits the medicine back. Ha, ha, well, praise the
Lord. He said, 

[46]	So we find the conditions, today, ready for the Coming of the Lord.


5.	In other words, we’re washed up, we need a strong man; the world is
crying for a strong man, we’re going to have our strong man, the right
hand of God. All right.

[47]	But, while Brother Neville and I, and these other brothers are
trying to shepherd a flock, I've got something on my mind now, that
comes, that we might talk about. 

[48]	That is, I got a letter the other day from a fine lady. (Now ?he
says? he’s going to start his little move here.) I never got it; it
came through another person. She was certainly tearing me to pieces, or
trying to. She was saying, "… Can't you Christian Business Men do
something to stop Brother Branham? …Because that he's got this book
out now called The Laodicean Church Age, (how well I know) bringing out
more." And she said, "He's just simply tearing Pentecostal doctrine to
pieces. …Now he's talking about the initial evidence isn't speaking in
tongues." And, "Then, he's against women preachers." And this was a
woman preacher. Her boys, some of the best friends that I have in the
world. They're among the best friends that I have. 

[49]	This man and wife, I was eating breakfast with them; (now not the
preacher and his wife now, somebody else.) they said, "Brother Branham,
look at this. Would you think of it?" and pulled out this letter. (And
so he read the letter of course.) And I said, "Well, the sister, just
doesn't understand." 

[50]	The boys had told me their mother was a woman preacher, and that
she didn't go for the Message.

[51]	Now she says… (And she’s talking about what’s in the book.)
in here, "It says, 'Women should not have authority over men.'" Then
"How about Phoebe in the Bible, Paul's helper?"  (A very good question.
That’s the same old jazz, you know, about the deaconness.) 

[52]	Certainly, she was a seller of goods. … Do you think Paul would
say, "Let the women keep silent in the churches, not permitting them to
speak," and turn around and say, "Now, Phebe, my helper in the Gospel,
she’s going to preach a few nights"? Why, he would contradict his own
word. 

[53]	And she then said, then, to top it all off, "I believe (he said) it
was Esther (it was really Deborah)… one of the judges in the Bible.
…A woman was a judge in the Bible. If that's not authority over men!" 

[54]	The businessman that was healed right here in the church not long
ago, … It was his wife turned and said, "Brother Branham, that always
puzzled me." I said, "…sister, why should that puzzle you?" She said,
"Well, here is a woman judge."

[55]	I said, "That's politics, not the church. (You know I never heard
that before that Bro. Branham mentioned it. See?) That doesn't have
anything to do with the church.” 

	See, now you see the answer there, and understand that though she was
in politics, in there, it doesn’t mean that she should be in politics.
Now better be careful what you’re thinking. See? Because all he’s
saying is, that was politics. See? She got away with it. Or did she? It
wasn’t the ministry. 

6.	Now:

[56]	Paul said, "Let the women be under obedience, as also saith the
law." The law can't put a woman up to be a priest… You never saw a
woman high priest. You never saw a woman ordinary priest, anywhere in
the Bible. You never saw a woman preacher, in the Bible. Certainly. 

[57]	Some of them were prophetesses, and so forth; 

	And you could still have them too, in the sense of the gifts within the
church. In other words, they could prophesy in the proper place. But you
don’t see the word ‘prophetess’ in the New Testament. There’s
nothing in there. 

[57]	Some were prophetesses, and so forth; Miriam and different ones.
And Deborah… was a judge over Israel. Sometimes they were queens over
them, and so forth like that, kings and queen. At the decease of the
king, the queen had to take his place till they elected another king,
and so forth. 

[58]	In Tucson, Arizona, we got a woman judge there in the city. That's
the reason the city is so polluted. 

	Now what about the woman mayor in San Fransisco? Thank God for AIDS.
Look, I’ll tell you frankly, you can say what you want, call me
diabolical, call me hard, I don’t give a rip. The Bible said, and this
is the fulfillment, in the last day there’d be diseases that could not
be healed! 

7.	Now let’s get this down flat. If you and I pay a price of
malnutrition, because there’s nothing left in the ground, don’t tell
me they can practice their insidious filth in the sight of a just God
and get away with it, when my body needs here and I’m trying to serve
Him, needs nourishment. Do you understand what I said? Well if you want
to horse around and get messed up, be my guest. But I’m going to tell
you, respectable citizens don’t buy that junk. 

	Now I’m hard, you bet I am. Undertakers don’t know how to handle
the corpses. Hospitals are trying to get rid of the patients. Florida
got mad and sent a patient out of San Francisco and did they get mad.
And they said, “Florida knows enough about AIDS, as well as New York,
they got their big centre too.” So the world’s fussing too. The
world’s found out it doesn’t pay to be flagrant in the face of
Almighty God! 

8.	Now where’s your homosexual? Don’t you know that is the sign of
the times concerning immorality? Filth. And don’t tell me we haven’t
had that junk around us, in certain countries homosexual filth goes on
like it’s gone over here in the Pentecostals. Yup. Doesn’t mean
because a man’s married he keeps away from other men. I think some men
ought to get married, let us know just where they’re standing. You
think I’m tough? I’m tough. Yeah. I don’t mind. You can’t tell
who I’m thinking about, so don’t bother trying to sue me. I get a
little fed up. Not just a little. Filth. The rotten filth.

[58]	…Tucson, Arizona, a woman judge… (San Franciso – this is my
notes – woman mayor.) That’s the reason the cities (and I put the
plural) are so polluted. … A woman hasn’t got any business in
politics. She’s got no business over any authority in the church. 

[59]	Her place is a man's queen at home. Outside of that, she has
nothing. We know that to be the Truth. You'll never find… (In other
words, you won’t find that in the Bible, it’s anything else but
that.) I know that sounds old-fashioned, but I'm responsible. (See?)

[60]	I know that, after my going away from this earth, that tapes and
those books will be living on, and many of you young children will find,
in the days to come, that this is exactly the Truth, because I speak It
in the Name of the Lord. 

9.	Now you watch what he’s saying here as a vindicated prophet of
Deuteronomy 18, ‘'THUS SAITH THE LORD', he is laying this down for the
people and they’re going to face it. Because he’s vindicated to say
It! Now anybody can yap. Anybody can read the Bible, anybody, any fool
can do it! Any hypocrite, any heathen! But a vindicated prophet with
'THUS SAITH THE LORD' is the only authority there is. And when you have
that authority, everything else bows to it. Now he’s telling you about
the condition!

[61]	Now, we wonder how a woman, that's a good woman, (and he’s
talking about this woman now, with the sons as preachers,) and she has
brought on this earth by her loyal husband, a good man, some of the
finest boys… I've ever met. And just quickly, just as soon as they
heard the Message, they were sold on It, a hundred percent. Now, that
could only come by foreordination. 

	Do you know what he did? He wiped the woman right out! Put her down as
a carrier. I tell you what, I could be wrong, but you know I got a
theory concerning the Millennium. I got a theory in the Millennium I’m
going to see who my real father is and my real mother, and I’ll see
who my real children are; if the children which you have in the flesh
are not there, there’s going to be somebody, because I see this as a
descended line from Adam, and the very elect out of that line. You see
what you want. I’m not saying the prophet taught it, but I know enough
about what he taught, for me to have a very good understanding and to
say this could very, very, very well be true. Because it says we’re
going to be there with our children. So you do what you want with it.
I’m not stating it as the doctrine, as though I know, but he puts it
in right here. 

[61]	…that could only come by foreordination. (God knowing who the
carriers would be. And then he said,) It's the only way it could come. 

10.	In other words, like mother, like daughter; like father, like son.
Now in this case the parents are out but the children in. Even as in the
case of Esau the parents are in but the child Esau was out. 

[62]	Now, the Scripture, here. I was thinking of that… "And… knowest
not… (now he said,) and knowest not; that thou art naked, miserable,
wretched, and blind, don’t know it." (Be all of those things, yet not
know it.)

[63]	Before I get to that spot, I might brief what I said a few days
ago, here in a Message, I believe it was on, 'God Of This World';
blinded the eyes of the people, that they absolutely worship the devil
in religious services. 

	Now let’s ask a question. How do you do it? Look, how do you know
God? You say, “I’ve spoke in tongues.” (Fap.) Speak in tongues. I
can put you under a good hypnosis and get you to regress until you speak
languages don’t even exist anymore. But they’re genuine languages.
So what does that do for you? Nothing. See? You say, “Well I believe
this, and I believe that.” 

11.	It comes down to just one thing, and that is: you have never seen
God, I have never seen God. We cannot prove God any way, shape or form;
God Himself could not prove God. You say, “I don’t believe that.”
Then you’re an unbeliever. Because what could He do to the Pharisees?
And He was God in human flesh. He couldn’t persuade anybody, He
couldn’t prove anything, William Branham couldn’t prove anything,
you and I can’t prove anything, it’s by faith! It’s an intrinsic,
almost esoterical, like an ethereal, mystical thing, this thing of the
Spirit. And here’s this person here now and he can’t prove God,
there’s no way he knows God really, except by a revelation. And he’s
got to believe it; he believes it, that’s all he’s got. Now this man
can’t prove, and along comes a person, says, “Well I believe this to
be the truth of God, then I’ll worship that way.” And it turns out
it’s the devil. Sure! Another man follows, it’s a revelation, and it
turns out to be God! 

	Now that may leave you puzzled, but let’s get this flat, “The
foundation of God standeth sure, in this day, the Lord knoweth them
which are His,” nobody else does, if you want to boil it right down.
Even Bro. Branham stood there and he said, “If we’re not Bride,
there’s a Bride out there somewhere.” See? 

12.	See, nobody’s trying to put something on himself, but he’s
trying to get to the point of why he could say that people in religious
services absolutely worship the devil! Because they’re going according
to the plan that the devil formulated. He said, “I’m going to exalt
myself above the most High.” He said, “I’m going to have all the
authority.” And in getting authority, you become an object of
exaltation! All right. 

	Now he got kicked out of heaven. So what’s he do? He’s what he’s
always done, he went right to the garden, and there he perverted the
Word to that woman, and when she was one word out, she was in Satan’s
kingdom, just like the prophet said. You say, “One word out and its
Satan’s kingdom?” Yes, if you don’t understand that, leave! I’ll
supply the booze; you go home and get drunk. Because you might as well.
You say, “Bro. Vayle, I don’t like your rough preaching.” Nobody
does, except me. So goodbye, I’ll take my own beer. You know how I kid
you.

13.	Look, it’s the truth. If you can’t see that one word put her in
Satan’s kingdom, where we are now, who are you trying to kid…
Who’s ripping down your body? Who’s making everything go against
you? Who’s making the briars tear your hands and the rocks stub your
toes, the animals rise up against you, the bugs come in and destroy your
crops? Or at least the mosquitoes come in and annoy you to no end as
they buzz around your head at night while you try to sleep. When back in
the garden he could say, “Tree move over there,” and the tree just
obligingly walked up. Or did it? I don’t care if an angel did it, I
don’t care if thought transfer and did it, I don’t care how God did
it, but he say, “Now tree I want you over there.” And he pruned the
trees, had a lovely existence. It was Satan’s kingdom; one word off
did it. See? 

	Absolutely worship the devil in religious services, and that’s not
people, my brother/sister, that are drinking blood out of a skull,
practicing religion in a darkened room, calling on spooks and gremlins,
hearing funny noises, seeing funny sights, but they’re people in
churches, especially Roman Catholic churches, and quickly in line the
Protestants, because they’re no different. See, they’ve changed the
Word. 

[64]	And then in that same Message, I brought the subject… 

14.	Now listen, in the same message, in 'The God Of This World', now
notice the woman linked with the god of this world, Satan. Now don’t
think the man isn’t linked too, come on. Because the man’s by the
woman. Can a clean come of the unclean? Hogwash. 

[64]	And then in that same Message, I brought the subject, that, a woman
wearing immoral clothes, indecently, she is to be judged at the Judgment
Bar as a prostitute. (And no whore will be in the Kingdom of God any
more than a dog, which is male whore, a male prostitute isn’t going to
make it either, they’ll be in the Lake of Fire. He said,) That sounds
awful strange. (It did at one time, but not anymore; I can’t think of
it otherwise.) Let me draw a little picture. (It’s a word picture.)

[65]	…here is young attorney… young fellow, nice fellow. That is as
far as politics go he’s nice, I imagine he may be decent, in his
politics. …he goes with a girl that's very popular. Fall in love and
marry. Attend all the parties and great things, and drink together.
Finally, she… has a nice home. He lives in a nice neighborhood. He is
well thought amongst the people. Both of them drink. She wears shorts,
cuts her hair, wears makeup, everything sexy, beautiful woman displaying
herself. Well, she never goes to church, at all, neither one of them. 

[66]	So, moving in, next door, comes a woman of the Baptist church or
the Methodist, her and her husband. Now, this woman… 

[67]	Let's make it Methodist, because the Methodist go a little more on
holiness than the Baptist; except New Testament Baptist, they believe in
holiness. But, usually, Baptists don't go so far on holiness at all.
They don't believe in no such thing. So then, let's make it Methodist
'cause they believe in holiness. (Of course that’s their own brand.)

[68]	And then a Methodist woman moves next door to this woman, on the
same street. Her husband… Let's say a public accountant, and, or some
office. Well, this Methodist woman looks over at the other woman. 

[69]	And when this lawyer goes out of town… His name is John; let’s
say his name is John. Now, don't presume on that. I'm just using a
fictitious name. His name is John. Well, she used to go with a fellow
named Ralph. (That’s the woman that’s married to John. ) That's
ficticious too… just to make a story, get going.

15.	[70]	Well, first of all you know, at a drunken party, Ralph hugs her
again. She gets all fired up, because she's in love again with Ralph,
she thinks. After a while, Ralph begins to meet her. She can put it over
John, pull it over his eyes. And she thinks she's a pretty smart duck,
because she can run with Ralph, while married to John. See, the woman
doesn't even have the bearing of decency, and she thinks nothing about
that. 

[71]	But this Methodist woman has been raised in another bracket. She
does, at least, go to church, and she thinks that that woman is
horrible. Why, she said to her husband, when he comes in, "I see that
man go in there and meet her. And when John is out on some case
somewhere, Philadelphia or somewhere, he takes her out in his roadster,
they lie on the beach. I see them come home; don't even pull the
curtains down, kissing and making love to her,… that’s awful?" she
says to her husband. "Why, she is nothing but a public prostitute." It's
true. She is worse than a public prostitute, because she is a married
woman. (You know you have more respect for a street prostitute than a
woman that pulls this deal. Now that’s the way the cookie crumbles.)
And, this woman, this Methodist woman, thinks that is horrible, she
never goes to church. (That would be the gal that, you know, that she
thinks is a prostitute, and she is indeed.)

[72]	Now, this Methodist woman would not do a thing like that. No,
indeed. She is a decent woman. And another thing, she would not touch a
bit of whiskey, being the Methodist church, ninety percent of their
program is prohibition that means against whiskey. So, they got a
prohibition program…

16.	That’s what they prohibited, the whiskey. Lying, cheating,
stealing, and anything, gouging, is all right. 

 	So, they got a prohibition program…

	And a lot of them, they don’t like liquor in the first place. It
never was hard for me to turn down booze, because I never liked it. Not
hard to turn down smoking, never liked it. Wasn’t hard to turn beer,
didn’t like it. See, it wasn’t hard to stop cutting my head off,
because I didn’t like it. It’s a little difficult in things I do
like. See? That’s prohibition. So they had this whiskey prohibited.

[72]	…they got a prohibition program, and those people of the
Methodist church don't live any higher than the church teaches.(Now
booze is their… you know.)

[73]	But this same woman, this Methodist woman, goes out, in the
evening, with her husband, wearing shorts on Sunday, after Sunday
school. She cuts her hair. Wears lipstick, even smokes a little. 

[74]	Now, in God's Word, they are both prostitutes, but this one here is
"naked, miserable, wretched, blind, (that’s the Methodist,) and
doesn't know it." One is as guilty as the other, for, "A man that looks
upon a woman, to lust after her, has committed adultery with her already
in his heart." 

[75]	…if this woman, now, she would say, "Now just a minute, Bro.
Branham. I'll give you to understand, I am no prostitute." My sister,
maybe if you'd be taken before a Bible, put your hands on It in the
Presence of God, and swear an oath that you have been just as true to
your husband as you could be. Your body belongs to your husband, but
your soul belongs to God. 

	Now you’ve got – in other words you have two definitive authorities
in the woman’s life. One is the husband, whose authority is limited to
a certain area, and the other is God, Whose authority is also limited to
a certain area. 

17.	Now we’ll just read the rest here.

[75]	…your soul belongs to God. There is an evil spirit that is
anointing you. If… you are not, then… I can prove that you're
totally insane. 

	Now you see the man with the authority over the woman cannot usurp the
authority of God, Who categorically tells the man that he cannot forbid
his wife to pray, to read the Bible or to fellowship in church and
worship God thereby. Any time he does that, his authority is gone, the
marriage is dissolved. You say, “Dissolved?” Certainly. She
doesn’t have a marriage, because she better obey God. Because
there’s a marriage to God that supersedes every marriage on this
earth. 

	See, now he says, listen:

[75]	There’s an evil spirit anointing you. (See.) If, it’s not, (an
evil spirit) then… you’ve got to be totally insane.

	Now here’s how he puts it.

[76]	What would have happened to your grandmother had she walked down
the street with those shorts on? 

18.	Now I’m sixty-nine years old, my mother would be, oh about a
hundred and two years old or so, thirty-three when I was born. And she
wore street sweepers; you couldn’t even see her ankle. And my mother
was not the epitome of virtue. She could cuss faster than a horse could
trot, so don’t think for one minute now that I’m extolling any
virtues that aren’t there, because I’m not extolling this as a
virtue, I’m only bringing the fact out that ma didn’t let her ankles
peep out. See? Now if my mother, and I’m only sixty-nine, and that’s
not my grandmother. And this was preached eighteen years ago, just
about, on the dot, within a month, within two months. Now if she’d
have gone down the streets with shorts on, even had she been built like
she was when she was young and she was an excellent figure when she was
young, they’d have grabbed the old girl up and shoved her in the
pokey. Yup. They would have done it. And that’s not my grandmother,
that’s my mother. 

19.	Now here’s to get the picture. See, get the picture. The same
people talk about God Who doesn’t change, well, if He couldn’t look
on that way back there, He couldn’t look on it now. 	

	Now he said, 

 	What would have happened to your grandmother if she’d have walked
down the street with those shorts on? They'd have put her in the insane
institution; she came out without her dress on. 

	Now I know an absent minded man, he just might forget to put his
trousers on, walk downstairs some morning without his trousers on. And I
think maybe some woman might be so plagued sometime, she might forget to
put her skirt on. But that’s just because – oh maybe once in thirty
years that might happen, or fifty years, or never happen in anybody’s
years, but it could happen. But this is habitual. This was calculated.

[76]	There is something wrong with her mind. (Now listen.) If it was so
then, it's so now.

	And this guy says, “I speak it in the Name of the Lord!” William
Branham. Now I’m going to tell you something. If William Branham is
right, this generation is going to answer for their slacks and their
shorts, I don’t care what anybody says. I don’t give a rip. I
don’t have a thing to do with it. But when this prophet raised his
head, and he said, “I’m going to speak in the Name of the Lord
concerning this, Knoweth It Not,” he had better be right! Or this
generation is going to come back on him. Because he’s speaking in the
Name of the Lord; this is the Name of the Lord. See?

[77]	So it throws the whole world into insanity. (Could it do just that?
Could this be the start of insanity?)

20.	Listen, now I’m not a hunter, but you guys are. How many mighty
nimrods – ramrods? [Bro. Vayle laughs.] …?... Well all right,
nimrods, you know what I’m going to tell you, because it’s the
truth. When a hunter gets lost, he becomes bushwacked. And it comes to
the place where he can cross a main highway several times, not knowing
he’s done it. He will throw his guns away, he will begin ripping his
clothes off; he goes entirely insane, out of his mind. 

	How many people go insane and don’t start ripping their clothes off?
Tremendous agitation and grief causes people to rend their garments.
Rend your hearts and not your garments is a true story, because
agitation through extensive grief will bring people to rip their
clothes. Agitation through extreme difficulties, when people cannot meet
situations, they want to rip something; they rip their clothes.
They’ll tear their hair and tear at their bodies. Taking your clothes
off is evidently a sign of insanity, and it started when women began
raising the skirts above the ankles, and above the calves, and then
above the knees, and above the knee there is no place else to go, except
to the primary sex organ in male and female, and let’s write it down
the way it is, because I’m not a nice preacher. But neither am I
dishonest.

 	…it throws the whole world into insanity. The whole thing is insane.


21.	Why? Because years ago the rending of the clothes, which would still
today be a rending and would be looked upon as insanity, but the taking
off of the clothes is highly commended! Instead of condemned. So
there’s insanity in the whole world. Though, now listen: 

 	The whole thing is insane. (Now listen,) it so gradually crept in
until the people don't know it. 

	Now you tell somebody, “Hey that woman’s insane, taking all those
clothes off.” 

	They’ll say, “Just a minute, I want you to know she’s a PhD.”

	Yes, piled higher and deeper in her rotten filth and sin, and her
corrupt morals! That’s what she is. She’s as scurvy as anything and
so is the man in the same boat, because the man encourages her! 

	When the Mayor Hall of Dayton, now dead, went to England, and he found
the mini skirts were mini-er than over here, he came back here with a
big grin! Well, why don’t you grin right, just go home and take your
wife’s clothes off and intercourse with her, that’s the thing to do,
that’s where God put it. Son of God can go down the street, he’ll
turn his head. 

22.	Now listen, you can’t run away from that stuff, I don’t care
where you go, if you think you can run away from it, you might as well
blow your brains out now, and I’m not going to give you my good liquor
to get drunk on. I’m not going to spend money on you. Take a gun and
blow your brains out, because the world’s in it. You can’t get away
from it, but you can turn from it. You don’t have to agree with it.
But you can understand it’s insanity! Now there’s the point most of
us don’t understand, it’s insanity! “Oh we’re looking for
someone to jump off a building.” They will. “We’re looking for
them to come to the place where they see these big birds fly across
heaven.” It’s in the same sermon. And I’ll tell you what it’s
all about, because it’s in the Greek. Bro. Branham explains it, but
it’s in the Greek. It’s a medical term. But they refuse to believe
that this is insanity! 

	Now I’ll tell you why. It’s like a little girl, she was mentally
deficient. Now this is from Canada. Because you see, you don’t have
any Prince of Wales here, you’re kind of beat out by being in the
thirteen colonies that decided you wouldn’t stay with jolly old
England, you lost your prince. So this little girl in this mental
institution, because she was, you know, a mental case really from birth,
but she knew enough, she had enough on the ball to know that the Prince
of Wales was a great figure. And so she dreamed she was in love with
him, he was coming to see her. And so the other girl decided that the
Prince of Wales was coming for her. Well you had two insane people
fighting over an imaginary thing. 

	You’ve got the same thing today. Two naked people agreeing it’s all
right. Two crazy people agreeing the Prince of Wales is coming for a
visit is no different than two crazy people agreeing it’s okay to take
your clothes off. But you see one is recognized, the other is not
recognized, because it’s gradual! Say, “Well I just don’t believe
that the world could have had its starting point toward insanity there,
that’s where it had its starting point, because the prophet said so.
I’m not preaching this sermon on my own, I’m preaching his sermon. I
didn’t put these notes here, I’m reading them. See? 

23.	All right, that’s the question. See? Has it crept in gradually
that people don’t know it? The answer is yes! Sure. 

[78]	Now, is she a prostitute? (That’s the question comes up next.)
Not by her husband, vow to her body. (That’s right, he’s the only
one having intercourse with her.) But, before God, she’s got an evil,
prostitute spirit on her, that makes her dress (he should say undress)
like that. (Well I don’t have to correct the prophet, but you know
it’s a state of undress.) And she's in the Laodicean Church Age, and
doesn't know that she's doing that. 

	In other words it’s so gradual, it becomes accepted. And that’s the
hideous thing about everything, it’s so gradual it becomes accepted!
Now here’s the Methodist church shouting prohibition, shouting this,
shouting that, and the women going naked. Here’s the Pentecostals,
shouting this, shouting that, it’s wonderful; women cut their hair
off, wear slacks. Where are you going to place it? It’s insanity. And
it came so gradual. 

	You know it’s like senility. Your dear old grandma. You know, finally
she makes a few little jokes, and they laugh, because you know,
grandma’s going a little bit down, you know, a little bit potty. And
then pretty soon a little bit worse. And one day gram ends up with a
large doll that weighs maybe five or six pounds and to her it’s a
baby. Her senility came gradually. She wasn’t senile when she was
sixteen. 

24.	Neither was the Laodicean church the mess it’s in, it’s a
gradual thing! And there’s things going on now, gradually, that will
wipe this Message out before it’s over. But people let it go. It’s a
type of insanity. Now: 

 	The innocent woman doesn't know that God will judge her as a
prostitute. 

	Innocent of what? Innocent of the act with anybody outside of her
husband, that is the physical act.

 	The innocent woman doesn’t know God will judge her for a prostitute.
There you are. (See?) 

	The question comes, does dress do it? Sure it does. See? It confirms
that the dress or lack of dress augments the very problem and furthers
the whole thing to …?... Now listen.

[79]	You get It to her; (that’s what’s going on, this woman,) you
can't tell her. There is no way of getting to her. The Bible said,
"They're naked and they don't know it." 

	Now is it this bad? Yes it’s that bad. That’s the condition. Now
that’s the condition the Pentecostals hated Bro. Branham to talk
about. They said, “What do you mean I’m a prostitute? What do you
mean?” 

	“Well,” he said, “what do I mean? This is a book, that’s an
organ, that’s a little glass that a candle's in, that’s a picture,
you’re a prostitute.”

	I don’t know. I was in meetings, I tell you, just burn me up. Of
course I would get sick at the stomach over it. Not that I’m a very
virtuous person, but you couldn’t stay in those meetings under the
anointing of God, then listen to them titter and laugh as though,
“Hahaha, you know, (pbbt,)  poor old pokey Joe Branham, you know,
hahahaha, cowboy Bill, hahaha, you know.” I don’t know. Get this
thing unwrapped here. Something’s wrong somewhere; it wasn’t with
the prophet. 

25.	Now,

[80]	If you would call her a prostitute, personally, she would have you
arrested. She would. I never talk personally about anybody. (No, he’s
talking about anybody at all, see, just talking about the sin question.)
I talk about sin. I don't say, "This certain church, Mr. So-and-so, Rev.
So-and-so…" I don’t say that, doctrine thing, the whole thing
together. I don't call individual. It's not individuals. It's the system
that they're in. (So I don’t call individuals, it’s the world
system. Now he said,) It's the world system. 

[81]	Brother George Wright sitting here… seventy-five or seventy-eight
years old, I guess. What would you think would have happened if you
would have gone to seen Sister Wright some day, and she would have been
standing in a pair of shorts? (Why he would have said, “The poor girl
forgot to put her skirt on.” And he turned his back and walked away
till her mother or someone put her right.) …you'd have had the woman
locked up. (Well Bro. Branham got stronger, I guess, than I did on that
point.) You'd have never married her. (Well if that’s the way she was
doing it, that’s right, he’d have had her examined and locked up, or
walked off, left her; he wouldn’t have married her. That’s the
thing, he wouldn’t have married her.) Well, any young man in that day
would have done it, the same thing would have taken place. Well, if it
was sin and wrong then, it's the same thing; but the people have grown
into insanity. 

26.	Now that’s in all churches. Not one church, every church. Now
listen, here again the same Deuteronomy prophet.

[82]	Let me prophesy something to you, just before it comes to pass.
(Now he told you what’s doing it.) The whole world is groping in
insanity, and it will get worse and worse and worse, I’m telling you
it will be a bunch of maniacs. And it's almost that way now. 

	And that’s exactly why homosexuality is where it is! And you get
magazine articles that tell you that herpes isn’t half as bad as it
sounds. Reader’s Digest that yaps about the communists, yaps about
Guatemala, has put, you know, two months ago they had the article out,
“Just be careful, you can get along fine with herpes. You can have
your neighbor’s wife, the woman down the street, some young girl,
it’s okay. You can be illegitimate,” says the Reader’s Digest,
“just be careful and watch it, at a certain scab season or pussy
season.” Trouble is those filthy scums put it on some young person
that doesn’t know any better. Then look at incest today. It’s gotten
to the place where they’re ready to pull the wraps off now and say
it’s okay! 

	Listen, what would make anybody’s mind but insanity, a mind filled
with insanity, go to a place where you get herpes and AIDS and
everything else? Merciful God, you understand what I’m saying? If a
man needs gratification, there’s a hundred different ways to get it!
Now you know what I’m talking about, there’s not a hundred,
there’s enough anyway. But the magazines are all for it. Everything is
fine. 

27.	Now listen, if that’s not insanity – now look! All right,
here’s a plate of hamburger. Clean fresh hamburger, we just got fixed
up from the mill. [End of side one.] …full of corruption. Why, you’d
know the person would be crazy to eat the plate that’s full of
corruption. Then why are people doing it this way? So they’re crazy,
it’s an insanity. 

	Now what we’re trying to show you is where the prophet said it came
from! And what it’s developing into. Now listen, let’s go back to
syphilis, and to gonorrhea, but especially syphilis. Syphilis handed
down to the fourth generation breeds an idiot! That’s right. All
right, there’s your insanity. Where’d it start? Back in the
nakedness in the garden. Where is it in this age? The nakedness. Because
the enticement is there. You can say what you want, but you can cure any
alcoholic in twenty minutes of being an alcoholic. You simply throw him
in a jail! And he’ll sit there till he dries out; keep him there five
years if necessary. When he can’t get the liquor, he’s no longer an
alcoholic. World’s gone crazy. They’re taking their clothes off and
taking their clothes off and nobody’s stopping it, because they’re
all too happy, because they were naked in the garden, they’re naked at
the end time. Only the first one was legitimate and this is filth.

 	Let me prophesy to you… The whole world is groping in insanity,
it’s going to get worse… I’m telling you, it will be a bunch of
maniacs. It's almost that way now. 

	Maniac minds bring this dress. They brought the dress, and no wonder
the mess is today until there’s so much rape and incest going on,
although some comes to light, the majority is still like the iceberg,
you merely see a tip of it.

[83]	Could you imagine a man driving with his lights off, on the wrong
side of the road; a ricky, young kid, supposed to be out of high school,
kill a bunch of people. Did that stop them? The next day come right one
behind him, doing the same thing. Can you imagine a young man that
thinks… anything of himself, getting out here and acting the way they
do?

[84]	Could you imagine a young woman, the bloom of womanhood, beautiful,
well-built, shaped, profile, face, beautiful; every thing of her being
pretty shows that we're at the end time. See, she has gone all together
to worldly feature, worldly things and not the beauty of holiness, (now
there’s a beauty of holiness, see?) sweetness in the soul. I've seen
women, on the outside of them wasn't nothing to look at, but speak to
them one time, talk to them a few minutes, they're a real genuine
something you can't get away from. See, beauty on the outside is of the
devil, it's of the world. 

28. Now, number one:

[85]	Look at Cain's children, how they went into it. (What into it? They
had the beauty, they had the glamor.) "When the sons of God (that’s
Gen 6:2, saw the daughters of men. Sons of God) saw daughters of man
were fair, they had taken unto them of them wives," and God never did
forgive them. 

	That’s exactly right! Now people say, “I don’t believe that.” I
don’t care what you believe, that’s exactly right, He wiped them off
the earth. See? Had to wipe them right off of there, because He didn’t
forgive them.

29.	Number two:

[86]	Look, at the Israelite women with those calloused hands, and hair
stringing; when those sons of God (that’s the children of God, the
sons of Abraham, down the line through birth, through Jacob, Isaac and
Jacob, they) come up through the land of Moab, met those dainty women
with well-set hair, (now look it, the other women were workers, help
meets for their husbands, these were sexpots! That’s what they were.)
fancy, a lot of manicure on their faces, or what ever you call it; (I
guess it’s mascara, whatever it is,) those sons of God saw those real
fair women, a false prophet said, "We're all the same." So they married
among them, and God never did forgive them. 

[87]	They perished in the wilderness. Every one of them died there,
without hope, without God, and Eternally lost; damned forever, because
they had seen the goodness of God, though they drunk from the fountain
that never runs dry. Drank from the smitten rock. …seen the brass
serpent perform miracles. Come out from under the baptism of Moses in
the sea. They had seen the hand of God. Ate Angel's food, and done all
of those things. But married in, let them women bring them in, and marry
among them. Not commit adultery, just marry among them; God never did
forgive it. 

30.	Why? Because there’s where the illegitimacy was born! An
illegitimate child was never two people that were unmarried! It was a
son of God that married a woman that wasn’t a child of God. One of
those Hebrew boys married a girl, a Canaanite, a Moabite, one of those,
and absolutely that child was illegitimate. Now that’s what Ezra and
Nehemiah tried to do, when they tried to straighten up the priesthood.
They were married to all this hokum-bokum stuff and all the kids were
illegitimate. Illegitimate wives, illegitimate kids, which would have
brought an illigitimate priesthood! They had no business marrying them.
That’s why Bro. Branham said, if he had, if Moses didn’t have time
to fix things up, nobody had time to fix anything up, and if he had
tried to do it, he’d bust up about every marriage in every church!
See? Why? Because most were sexpot marriages. Why? The woman didn’t go
to God for an answer, and the man didn’t go to God for an answer. Now
maybe… 

	Now what you’ve got the same thing Bro. Branham laid it out, when
this business of marriage, it is sacred, it is wonderful, but always
there’s the fast talking man that’s got a revelation, and there’s
the slow talking woman, and so she listens to the fast talking man and
she ain’t got a revelation. She ought to shut-up and stay home and sit
down and braid her hair by the hour, if that’s what it’s going to
take to keep out of this mess of marriage. Until she knows from Almighty
God, from a voice of her heart within her, God speaking, “That’s the
man you’re to marry.” 

31.	Well say, “Well a man loves me.” Oh fap, you won’t have that
good of marriage. Marriage is tough no matter how you look at it. Couple
of old chickens get together… yeah. 

	Well they didn’t do it, they looked at the sexpot. Women are pretty,
they’re prettier than ever. Like Bro. Branham said, I think he called
her name Pearl O'Brien, I never heard of her. I don’t know who she
was. The old girls back there, as I far as I know, were Theda Bara, I
don’t remember her, maybe she was the state of the bear and looked
like one, I don’t know. Haven’t got any idea. But he talked about
this Pearl White. He said, “Any sixteen year old snickerfritz looks
better than her.” Well I don’t know about that. He did, so I’ll
take his word for it. I don’t know if I knew any myself, that is to
even see pictures. 

	Now those are the first two instances he talks about. Way back there in
the Book of Genesis, back there in the coming out of Exodus. Okay, the
third one he’s talking about. Now he said,

[88]	That was the second time… Now we’re in the third time, more
deceiving now than ever. 

[89]	I know that's hard. I've often wondered, in many ways, how will it
ever be? Why do I have to talk so rashel (It’s rational, but he means
so hard) to people? What makes it so? And yet, I notice, if it wasn't
God, there wouldn't be nobody, not a woman would sit and listen at me.
But they come back, because there is somebody that's got an anchor of
Truth there, that knows that That's right. Regardless, they know It's
right. 

	Now he said, “I’d lose every woman,” he said, “but there’s
some of them that know It’s right.” He said, “They’re looking
for an anchor.” 

	Now, what is it what he’s talking about? He said the third time is
worse than the second time! The second time they married! Now we’re
getting into a marriage of organization, right. Now at that time: 

[87]	…they were damned, because they’d seen the goodness of God,
they had drunk from the fountain that never runs dry. They had drunk
from the smitten rock. They’d seen the brass serpent perform miracles.
(In other words the great healing ministry.) They’d come out of the
baptism of Moses in the sea. They had the hand of God upon them.
They’d eaten Angel food, and all those things. 

32.	Now let’s take a look at what we’re into. Hebrews 6. Now never
forget this as long as you live. Because here we’re in this 'God Of
This World' right now, this 'Knoweth It Not'.

(1)	Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us
go on (to) perfection; (now watch, before you go onto perfection, watch
what happens.) not laying (in) the foundation of repentance from dead
works, of faith toward God,

(2)	Of the doctrine of baptisms, of laying on of hands, of resurrection
of the dead, and of eternal judgment.

(3)	…this will we do, if God permit.

(4)	For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and tasted
the heavenly gift, were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, 

(5)	…tasted the good word of God, the powers of the world to come,

(6)	(Having fallen) away, (they can never be renewed to) repentance;
(because) they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him
to an open shame.

	Now It tells you that this age ends worse than any of them! This is
exodus! This is the time of the Rapture! Two women are being made up!
One is being made up, deceived of the devil, and one is made up, the
virgin Bride of Jesus Christ! And the virgin Bride of Jesus Christ is
going to get out of here. That’s why this is important, Knoweth It
Not. 

33.	Now, all right.

[89]	Now watch what happens. I know it's hard. 

[90]	It's just like a doctor give you medicine, you refused to take it,
then don't blame the doctor if you die. 

	Now remember, the last plague was spiritual death! It was physical
death in Egypt! It’s spiritual death now! See? Woman says its okay;
church says it okay; it’s not okay! Because this is the age of the
mind! And if the mind is insane, it can’t take the Word of God! I
don’t care what anybody said, God never went to the insane institution
and to the people down there that didn’t have an ounce of brains
because they were born wrong. You couldn’t even be a priest under the
law if there’s something wrong with you. You had to shave your beards
just right, everything about you had to be right. There wasn’t one
thing, from your sex organs to your fingertips that could be out. 

	Let’s get it flat, that’s the Word of God, I’m not ashamed to
preach It. Too many kooks in the church, maybe right here tonight too,
can’t take the Word of God. Sure there’s a perfection! That Bride
doesn’t go around looking like some mealy, scrubby thing out there of
the world! Yet one of the biggest fights in the churches all the time is
women cannot get their heels down, can’t keep their dresses down,
can’t do a dozen things! I’m not trying to fuss at anybody, just
telling you the truth. Men ain’t no better. Because they’re looking
for one thing, they’re looking for sex, the same as the rest of them
were. What do you think this is all about? Read the Songs of Solomon.
“Oh my, Vayle’s a dirty old preacher.” Well I'm whoring around
with women or anything else, I’m laying it here on the table! Trying
to back my life against anybody’s life, so I got some great fine shiny
light. But you find me chasing around doing one thing. Never have
believed in this junk. 

	Now women got their act. And listen, women represent the church;
we’re going to hit that right in a second here. That’s what you’re
looking at. 

34.	Now he said: 

[89]	I know it’s hard.

[90]	… doctor give you medicine, you refused to take it, then don’t
blame the doctor if you die. 

	And Dr. Branham was here with spiritual medicine. And they die
spiritually! You say, “A woman cut her hair?” Yes, she’s dead! You
say, “Well just a minute, I thought it was grace.” The grace of God
gives, she’s got enough grace to keep her hair long, her skirts right,
and her shoes right and everything else right. Doesn’t worry about
style. None of those flimsy dresses that flow around you and drape your
figure, you move until everything about you is flowing around. Listen,
Bro. Branham said those mothers-to-be dresses, he called them, were
condemned because they looked like maternity dresses. Fat dress, what
you call them. If you got them in your homes, burn them! And you men
that see your wives got them, burn them! Haven’t got enough brains,
rip them off. That’s pretty tough preaching. You think I’d be afraid
to do it to my wife? Don’t you believe one minute I’d be afraid to
do it. If she ain’t scared of me, she’d better be, learn to be
scared. I’m the head of the house. And I’m responsible. If she wants
to run down that road, that’s her business. Nope, you say, “Well
that’s…” 

35.	Listen, I’m going to tell you, it was the little things that
condemn every single one, the little things, the little fox that spoil
the vine, it’s the little fly in the ointment, the little gnat; it’s
not the dead horse in the slough! And it’s not the crocodile in your
soup! It’s the fly that’s spinning around in there. Sure. Now if
your wife ain’t saved, that’s a different story. You say, “Should
women that are pregnant wear maternity dresses?” You better wear them.
It’s the ones that ain’t pregnant. So don’t get so if you thought
I was saying something out of turn there, let’s get the record
straight. 

	Now if you die, don’t blame the doctor. Now if anybody dies today,
don’t blame Bro. Branham. …?... Anybody come near this Message?
It’s your tough luck. Sure. Person doesn’t take it, doesn’t going
in it. And I’m not pointing fingers at you sitting here, don’t
worry, I got fingers pointed at myself too, I know where I’m wrong. 

[90]	Now This is like medicine. (What is? The Message!) What about these
people that always claim to me being a woman hater? 

[91]	You see, you just watch the way the women act, and I'll show you
where the church is. 

	Not against women. Women find I’m pretty well like Bro. Branham,
their strongest supporter. Always supported women. But you can’t
support either a man or women when it’s wrong, you can’t support
yourself when you’re wrong. See?

 	… and I’ll show you where the church is. 

	Now remember, woman always places the church, Israel tells the time!
Now people say men make the women sex symbols. I’m going to tell you
something. They wouldn’t have to be if they just want to draw the line
in. That’s all. A woman doesn’t have to learn karate to split a
guy’s thigh, if he gets too smart. Boy I’ll tell you, a withering,
scathing ‘no’ can stop any six-footer but a rapist right in his
tracks. And remember rape is not it, it’s seduction. And seduction is
where two people are well agreed upon an act, because they both flatter
each other.

 	…the people, the women of the world. And the church is the same
stage. Watch the natural type the spiritual, right through, each time. 

36.	In other words, they’re both naked, period. Now let’s prove
they’re naked! Let’s not just yammer, yammer, yammer. Let’s prove
it.

	[Hebrews 4:]

(12)	For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any
two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and
spirit, and… joints and marrow, (discerns) the thoughts and intents of
the heart.

(13)	Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight:
but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we
have to do.

	There isn’t one that’s not naked before God and his judgment has
been pronounced! The Bride is dressed but the whore is naked! Now
there’s your answer. The prophet stood there and he read every heart.
Now you say, “What makes a woman do it?” Well because her mind’s
all flunkied up, all messed up. See? Now we’ll get to that, we’ll
show you some of the things what’s happening, we just got to take my
time, seeing I can’t preach too much longer. Been about an hour now.
Okay.

 	Now, someday at the Judgment Bar… 

[92]	I know it's not popular to say it. But if a man is not ordained to
say it, you better not say it; because you're impersonating… 

	Ha. Preachers get up in a pulpit, a Oneness pulpit, deny the very
prophet of God, stand naked before the people, then get up there as
hypocrites and tell the women to keep their hair long, and tell the
prophet he’s false. Ha. They’re naked too and don’t know it. And
he saw Miss One. And remember his vision about Miss Threeness and Miss
Oneness? Miss Assemblies of God, boy she was a picture cut out of a
magazine, you know, sort of a shaped down Marylin Monroe. Maybe not
quite as glorious in all her physical, sexual structures. But boy, was
she really gorgeous, and Mr. Man of the World came by, the slicker, and
she’d been talking to Bro. Branham. Mr. World came by, Miss American
and World-wide Assemblies of God didn’t have one more look for the
prophet, she just grabbed the old boy’s arm, ran off to adultery. 

37.	Next vision was Miss Oneness with her sleeves a little bit longer
and her hair the way it should be, and the dresses pretty well where
they should be, which they were lower than the knees and all, down to
the calf and so on, and she looked pretty good. But Mr. World came by,
as she talked to Bro. Branham, Mr. World chucked her under the chin and
she sort of looked, and she looked back, and she looked, and then she
grabbed him by the arm and walked off, and took one look as she went
down the hill. Now she’s gone. Adultery. Who put her there? Her rotten
preachers! So what will be the use of a man preaching something like
this if… well how could he? 

	Another thing Bro. Branham was saying here, if you don’t have a
judgment ministry, stay away from it.

[93]	Now notice. I actually, look, at times, held a woman's mouth open
and poured the Medicine in her mouth, and then hold my hands over her
mouth, she'll spit It out every time. What if a doctor did that to a
patient, then the patient died because they refused to swallow the
medicine? At the Judgment Bar, when all these things like cutting hair
and wearing shorts… 

	In other words, the Judgment Bar, Dr. Branham stands there and said,
“I gave the medicine, what did you do with it?” Everyone in that
rugged picture that’s painted by the prophet either will be accused
according to the fact or an accessory after the fact in the Judgment Bar
of God. 

38.	Now he said:

[94]	I'm only building. The hour is close at hand when you're going to
see something happen, when something is going to take place. All this
background here has only been laying a foundation for a short, quick
Message that will shake the whole nations. 

	You say, “What’s that got to do?” I haven’t the least idea,
except I believe that’s The Rapture. I believe that’s The Rapture
message, the only message Bro. Branham preached …?..., as I understand
there’ll be a genuine message that would have an effect upon us, would
be the revelation of the Rapture, which the Bride catching would start
her right off under the Seventh Seal. I don’t know, you put it
anywhere you want, I can’t help you.

[95]	Why I been picking on women, it's just been laying up here for
something could hit around the head, with it. (In other words he’s
just waiting for the time to strike out, he had to tell them. As far as
I know, that’s what he’s saying. Maybe the guy that took this off
the tape didn’t get it right, I don’t know.) Even trying to tell
them what's right. I hold my hand down like this, to where their mouth
is, they spit It out. Then who can blame the doctor?

[96]	How you going to say, at the Day of the Judgment, when the very
voices that cried out against it, will play the record right back in the
face of the people? How they going to get away from it? 

39.	Rev 1:15.

(15)	…his feet (were) like unto brass, as if they burned in a furnace;
and his voice as the sound of many waters.

	A lot of preachers raise their voices. But why raise their voice? The
preacher himself doesn’t live the life. If he’s got some Laodicean,
Nicolaitan concept going on, gouging and bugging the people. See? Now
look, I could say a lot of things here, but it’s all right. 

[97]	Spit It out between your fingers. Pour some more down, then kind of
shake their head walk back, go back, won't do it. Yet, you come back and
pour It again. Then who is to blame? Not the doctor, not the Medicine,
but the attitude of the people. 

	Now where’s the attitude come from? See? They can’t be born again.
Now he goes into why they do this a little later on. I’m not going to
get it tonight, because I can… I thought I’d get twenty-six pages
and call it a day, but you know how that is. It’s just like my house.
Twenty more years and fifty thousand dollars, it just might be nearly
finished. And you all know, that own homes, know exactly what I’m
talking about, there ain’t no way, ain’t no way of ever getting
anything done when you got a little bit of land, I don’t care if its
five acres or five thousand acres, forget it! Go to bed and sleep. Take
the crop off tomorrow. 

	It will be horrible, one of these days, when this sinful adulteress
generation stands before Almighty God. 

40.	Now notice this sinful adulteress generation. He’s talking about
this generation that shall not pass away. He’s talking about now, the
women that he preached to, and treated them like a patient, like a
doctor a patient, helping them, trying to help them, to force the
medicine down the throat, in hope some goes down, they’ll get some
help. It’s like a person with the teeth clenched, can’t unclench the
teeth, trying to do something, pry the jaws apart, get a little liquid
in there, get something in there to help the patient. Ah, man, they just
bite his fingers off, or spit it right back in his face. Now this
generation does it. Will this generation ever get clothed? This
generation will not get clothed. A minute number.

[98]	As I see my years creeping up, my shoulders stooping; (I wish mine
were that stooped,) thirty years on this platform, thirty-three years
here on the field. (That’s like the life of Christ, thirty years old,
thirty-three. Three and a half years.) That's thirty-three years of
service. Only one regret I have; I don't have a hundred and thirty-three
years for it. For this will be the last opportunity (that is what he’s
doing now, preaching, in this period of mortality,) I'll have, while
mortal, to preach the Gospel. God help me to stand true as true as I
can, to that Word, just as He said… 

41.	Why does he say that? Because while you’re human, you’re
fallible! Be great to have a prophet come on the scene with 'THUS SAITH
THE LORD', then live like a garbage can. Well he wasn’t a garbage can,
that’s one thing about Bro. Branham I admire. The man backed it up
with a life.

[99]	What made that Methodist woman… How could you ever get to her?
(Now what made her that way, see? How could… could you get her? No
way, because she’s) in the Laodicean Church. (That means they don’t
know! They don’t know. The question is: is there anything to know
with? Not really, when it comes to discernment.)

[100]	Now let’s take the Pentecostal woman. She wouldn't wear shorts,
make-up, or cut her hair, but she looks down at the Methodist, say,
"Look at that woman do so-and-so!" Say the woman doesn't wear shorts,
but she said… and herself  bobbed her hair. 

[101]	The higher you rise in God, the more sinful the whole thing looks.


42.	In other words, when you’re down here where that Baptist woman
was, which she didn’t have anything, she could commit adultery. When
you’re a little higher, where your morals are better, with this
Methodist woman, she could take her clothes off but stay true to her
husband. Now you get to the Pentecostals! Now they won’t do a lot of
things, like smoke, drink and shag around, you know, to beer parties and
all that stuff, and disco… oh hold it, take that back, there’s a lot
going to discos now, call themselves Pentecostals, forget it. They got
the jungle jive and the jungle beat and they say that "rock" is of God.
Yeah, rock is of God, they’re going to be hailstones, one hundred
pound size going to get them too. Don’t give me that nonesense and
that balderdash that they peddle around. 

	No you see, the higher you go, the more you look down. You see? But the
point is there’s got to be a people someday that are looking down
because they’re really up. Now none of these are up. Okay. 

 	And then sometimes, in prayer, you can imagine, when the Holy Spirit
takes you into sphere, then the whole thing looks like chaos. Then you
come on back down, you seem like you're, to the people, you're a rascal,
you're nothing but just an old sarcastic fellow. You're a fool, because
you stand like an old crank… rebuking the people. But if you ever
climb into those spheres one time, when you can be in the Presence of
God (not through emotion, (you see?) but through genuine Holy Spirit),
(that’s the real anointing, see?) the whole thing is written,
"ICHABOD.” 

43.	Now what’s he saying here? Not through emotions. Why? Because
emotions distort. Emotions distort. Over-joy distorts. Fear distorts.
Greed distorts. Pride distorts. All those things distort. They’re
emotions. They’re deep feelings. Traits. Now you get very happy, you
get very depressed. You could be very happy thinking that everything was
going to be fine and the next step you’re going to break your neck.
You could be very sorrowful thinking, “Hey, I’m in real trouble,”
and somebody sends you a cheque for a hundred thousand dollars. Emotions
won’t work. They distort. You can’t stand a distortion, it’s got
to be Holy Ghost, see? 

[101]	The Glory of the Lord is departed from the whole denominational
outfit. That's right. There’s none of them that's right. 

	That’s why William Branham stopped praying for America in 1956. No
way, no way to pray for it. It’s all over. 

	Now going on here he explains what is going on and teaches it from the
tri-unity of a man. Now we said we’d get to that, what does this?

[102]	…let me draw a little circle. If I had a blackboard… But I
want you to watch here. I'm going to make one ring like this, and I'm
going to make another ring inside the ring, that's two, then I'll make a
third ring inside that ring. That's three rings, three circles. (Make
three rings, one within each other.) Now, that's you.

[103]	That's God. God is a trinity in One, (it’s a tri-unity, triune
God,) and without a tri-unity He's not God. (He used the word
‘trinity’ but that’s not really right, the word is
‘tri-unity’, which I think he does use in certain places.) He can't
be manifested any other way. 

44.	So the manifestation is in a trinity because He’s a tri-unity.
Like our manifestation: son, husband, father, is the same as daughter,
wife and mother. It’s all the same thing, but it’s the same person.

[104]	…neither can you be manifested without being the triune person
that you are, (see?) that's: body, spirit, soul. Without either one of
them, you're not complete. See? If you don’t have a soul, you'd be
nothing; if you didn't have a spirit, you’d be nothing; if you didn't
have a body, you’d be spirit, not a body. 

[105]	So, God is complete in the tri-unity (now he says it) of a Being;
not tri-unity of beings, but One Being in a tri-unity. Father, Son, and
Holy Ghost (now notice, that’s not three people! And that’s not
actually three forms! Because God’s Spirit. I’m sorry, that can’t
change. The form could change, but Spirit can never change. Now,) is one
true manifested God. God! 

[106]	Notice here, just wait, I believe I read just a few minutes ago.
Listen to this. … unto the messenger of the… Laodiceans write; These
things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of
the creation of God; 

[107]	God Himself is the Creator. So how was He ever created? (Well who
created God? Nobody. What does it say then?) But this is "the beginning
of the creation of God." When God, the Spirit, (now that’s what He is
intrinsically,) was created in the form of a Man, that was God being
created; (now that’s what he’s talking about. God creating Himself
in the form of a human being. God taking upon Himself a form. That’s
what he’s telling you.) God the Creator, Himself, becoming a creation.
God, Who made the dirt, the calcium, made the potash, cosmic light,
petroleum, took the thing together and created Himself, in "the
beginning of the creation of God." 

[108]	"The Amen," the final. Amen means "so be it." "The final of God,"
when God completed in His creation. 

45.	In other words, this is the time of the end where God is winding up.
Winding up to the Gentiles, winding up to the Jews. Because remember,
seven follows six! One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven Seals. Five
is to the Jew that breaks under Four to the Gentiles. Six is to the
Jews, also breaking now to the Gentiles, because the Sixth Seal is open
with the earthquake in Alaska. These things are going on. 

	So therefore, we find at the end time what is the great… “The
beginning of the creation of God, the faithful and true witness, the
Amen,” is telling you that God is winding down the program of creating
Himself in the human form, He’s not dealing with people now. That’s
when it’s all over. He’s going to take them to a glorified state.
But it’s all started now and it’s winding down. How long is it going
to take? How do I know? One thousand years? Fifteen hundred? I don’t
know. Because you got the White Throne, you got the judgment. You got
the whole Millennium. I don’t know. But I know it started. See,
that’s where we differ with those who don’t understand the Presence
and the Rapture, we say we’re started into it. Because if you’re
part of the Shout, then you’ve got to be part of the Resurrection,
there’s no two ways about it. See? All right. 

[109]	Now, how was it done? "No man has seen God at any time, (that’s
because you can’t see Him,) but the only Begotten of the Father has
declared Him." (Brought Him into plain view, led out by words, made a
complete presentation, a thorough description, and also by the human
form, by what He did. All right.) Do you get it? 

46.	That’s Jn 1:1,2 and verse 14. We just go back if you want.

(1)	In the beginning was the Word, the Word was with God, and the Word
was God.

(2)	The same was in the beginning with God.

(3)	All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made
that was made.

(14)	And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us…

	Now It tells you right there. See? That very One, now take on a human
form. 

[110]	Say, just a minute, you’re in no hurry. Let's turn to
Colossians, just a minute. Just happened to…  Scripture come to my
mind. Turn to Colossians, the Book of Colossians,… I believe 1st
chapter. I'll have to look at this, because I haven’t premeditated it.
So I'll look at it… "For this cause…" (Beginning at verse 9.) For
this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for
you, and to desire that you might be filled with the knowledge of his
will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; (That’s for this hour,
see, but our hour is when the Spirit comes into Revelation.) That ye
walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good
work, …increase in the knowledge of God; Strengthened with might,
according to the glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering
with joyfulness; Giving thanks to the Father, which has… made us meet
to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: Who has
delivered us from the power of darkness, and has translated (that’s
transfigure, it’s a transfiguration) into the kingdom of his dear Son:


47.	[111]	We’re getting there now. Watch. In whom we have redemption
through his blood, even forgiveness of sin: Who is the image of the
invisible God,… 

[112]	Get it? 15th verse… the firstborn of every creature: 

[113]	Amen! The what? "The firstborn of every creature." Let it be
Angel, let it be any one it may be; He's the firstborn of every
creature. (Now watch.) For by him were all things… created, (so He’s
the Head of everything) that are in heaven,… in earth, visible…
invisible, whether they be thrones, …dominions,… principalities,…
powers: all things created by him, and for him: 

[114]	Let it be anything it might be; no other being! (That’s right,
see, He’s got the Headship.) … he is before all, and by him all
things consist. (Now watch.)

[115]	Whether it be Father, Son, Holy Ghost, whatever it is… 

48.	Now you say, “All right,” you say, “what do you got? You got
four people there then. You got somebody there, then you got a father
there, you got a son there, …?...” No! 

	What he’s telling you, this that started was before any of the
dispensations of Father, Son or Holy Ghost, they were manifested, this
was the beginning! This is where it started! See? God starting Himself
to become visible! From that time begin carrying on His magnificent
plans, until at the end it will all be there and the One that created it
is the One that maintains it, because it says, “All things by Him
consist,” that means to maintain, “and He is before all things.”
That’s what He is. In other words, when there was nothing, He was
there. So He’s before all things. Then the Light begin to grow and
come out. Now you begin to see God moving in a realm whereby He can
begin to bring into being and physical manifestation everything that He
so desires that lay within Him. 

[115]	"Before all things that are in Heaven, in earth; visible,
invisible, or anything," this Son of God was before all things. Is that
right? 

	Well if He’s God, certainly. What about the Holy Ghost? Certainly.
What about Father? Certainly. Had to be all there somewhere. 

	You get a seed. You say, “What is this seed?” 

	“Well I tell you, that seed is very, very peculiar. I’m going to
tell you something about that seed. That seed is so tiny that you can
barely see it.” 

	Say, “That’s right.” 

	“Well I’ll tell you something. That seed gets as big as a house
before it’s over.” 

49.	You say, “Now just a minute. Are you going to tell me that
everything in that little seed comes out big as a house?” 

	“Sure, you start doing something with it.”

	Why it’s got four thousand different colors, got a hundred and fifty
thousand different kind of attributes. Can be used for about five
million different things if you want to figure them all out. Dr. Carver
did that with the peanut. Where was it? It lay in that life, which is
literally like a spirit! 

	So you got a Spirit God! He can have a million titles and a million
things! And He was there ahead of all of it. And when He manifested, He
was already there to come on down and show you something down here. If
you and I can see the Pillar of Fire and there it is, caught by a
camera, you say, “That Pillar of Fire wasn’t there eternally,”
you’re right it wasn’t, it’s created. But what’s inside of it?
See? Bro. Branham categorically said Elohim came down before the
destruction. Who came down here then before Sodom and Gomorrah? Elohim.
See? 

50.	All right, you’re just looking at what lies there. All right.

[115]	…all things was before him, by all things consist by him.

[116]	There is nothing can make it run without Him. (See that word is
‘consist’.) Whether it's God the Father, God the Holy Ghost;
(whatever it is. Sure.) whether it's Angels, principalities, powers,
dominions; whatever, it’s all run by Him. "All things consist by Him."
He is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning… 

	And Who is down here now, Head of the church? Can’t raise the dead
unless He’s Head of the church, the prophet said so, I believe the
prophet. Said He comes down, sets Himself at the Head of the church in
order to raise the dead, and then they try to tell me some people down
the line believe in the Presence. They don’t even know what they’re
talking about. Because if He came down in a Shout, and has set Himself
Head of the church to raise the dead, then He’d better be here to
raise the dead, because the dead are here. That’s right. Said in
Marriage and Divorce, “He’ll create again, not by sex, by natural
creation. Take the potash, the oil, the cosmic rays and all those things
and bring man out of the dust.” Where is he? In the dust. And the
church won’t even recognize Him. Yeah. And entertain every little
illegitimate running around the world, when the prophet said that’s
out. Okay, Judases, take your sop. Yeah, Judases. 

51.	I like what Bob Brown said. Said back in …?... Josephus they said,
when they had a dinner, the host would take and dip the bread into the
wine and give it to the choice guest. And who did Jesus give the sop to,
as the great guest? The one that cut His throat. And so who did He keep
pandering to all the time, so to speak? The Pentecostals. So who
crucified Him? But just don’t blame the Pentecostals. Let’s get
home. You say, “Well what do you mean, Vayle?” I could be one of
them to crucify Him. Don’t ever sell me short one way or the other,
and I’m not selling you short one way or the other. Seventy-two chairs
and half-filled, tomorrow morning go seventy-two different directions
too. I’m not pessimistic, I’m just realistic. I’m not
mealy-mouthed; I just tell you the truth. I haven’t been mealy-mouthed
except to get a good meal out of this Word. I don’t get hurt by
preaching rough, not one minute. You got to try to back up what you
preach. Now I can’t back this Word up, but I can stand with what I
preach. 

52.	Now he said,

[116]	…he is the head of the body, the church,: who is the
beginning… (now Who is the beginning? He is.), the firstborn from the
dead… 

	And He before all? Sure, became a man, died. That’s a mystery there.
I don’t worry about the mystery, just thank God He was a man. That
gives me representation. I get representation in God; I get
representation in man, what more do I want? I got it made! You try to
beat that. You can’t do it, you’re right with the things of God. All
right.

 	…firstborn from the dead (that is, raised up when He came to
redeem); that in all things he might have the preeminences. 

[117]	"…preeminence," what does that mean? That means, "over all." He
is over all things ever was created; every Angel, every being, every
thing that is. (And we’ll be too, by the way, ?if? there ever will be
anything.) He is over all things. What Creature is This? Or can it be?
Over all! "… having made peace…" …just a minute. For it pleased
the Father that in him should all fulness dwell; 

[118]	"All the fullness of all things." All the fullness of God, all the
fullness of Angels, all the fullness of time, all the fullness of
Eternity; everything dwelt in Him. This is that Fellow. 

53.	What did he mean by that? It just means that’s where it all
started. And started to come into manifestation. And when it did, He
made sure that through manifestation all that was manifested came right
back into a perfection. Who’s doing it? God is, by grace. Now if He
doesn’t deserve, He doesn’t deserve preeminence, you tell me, who
does? I just can’t buy it. That’s one thing –you know, I’ve told
you time after time, it came into my mind, He’s got to have
preeminence or we’ll never get a rapture, never get back to the
garden. That’s why, I believe that’s why God keeps me preaching on
the Presence! See? Right or wrong, I’ll tell you one thing: at least
we talk about Him in a way He deserves talking about. 

[119]	There is that great Being we're talking about, "The beginning of
the creation of God." 

[120]	And now that, Church, that His very whole purpose was the Church.
(That’s beautiful.) …how do we get into this Church? "By one Spirit
we're baptized into one Body," the Church, the Body of Christ. It cannot
fail. 

[121]	Now, here is what happens. Now just watch this, just a little
figurative picture here. 

[122]	Now, this man is the flesh on the outside. That's what we look at;
what we see. It has five inlets to that body. Any grammar school child
knows that, as well as myself, would know there is five senses control
the body; see, taste, feel, smell, hear. Without that, you can't touch
the body. The only way you have to the body; (is through the senses,)
see, taste, feel, smell, hear; so see it, taste it, feel it and so on…
Now, that is the evil one, on the outside. 

54.	In other words that’s where all the trouble starts. It’s not
that the body of itself is evil. See? You can’t take a little child
and call it evil, it’s innocent. But it soon becomes evil, because he
gets into sin then. In other words there’s where the thing gets
moving.

[123]	Now, inside that is a spirit, which you become when you're born in
here (that is when the baby drops down and the spirit comes in,) the
breath of life is breathed into him. That spirit is of a worldly nature
because it was not given from God, but it was (given) permitted by God. 

	Now that spirit then, well Bro. Branham did indicate it was possible
that that could be one of the spirits that fell, could be one of the
spirits that didn’t fall. I don’t know. All I know, it’s a spirit.
I’m not going to conjecture. All I know is that evidently a baby does
not have life, because life is a spirit, until that spirit comes in, God
allows it to come in, and then it’s in evidence, not of simply
movement, which is kicking muscles and all, there’s the evidence of
crying, there’s those things that show and pertain to an awareness and
a functioning within the universe where the child is placed. 

[123]	For, every child that's born in the world, "is born in sin, shaped
in iniquity; come to the world speaking lies." Is that right? (All
right, that’s true.) So, that person, inside there, is a sinner, to
begin with. 

55.	[124]	Now, it has five inlets. (See, that’s the person’s got
five on the outside, five more.) I don't know whether I can call them
off right now. …conscience, love, choice… (thought.) Conscience,
love, reason… five inlets to the spirit. (Okay, now you got something
from the outide, things come in, you got something on the inside, things
come in. Number two then:) You can't think with your body; you have to
think with your spirit. You can't have conscience in your body. It has
no mental faculties at all; your body doesn't, so you have to think with
your spirit. (In other words the mind and the spirit are one. They’re
joined together.) You have to reason. You can't reason with your
physical being, because reason doesn't see, taste, feel, smell, or hear.
Reason is what you make in your mind. If you're asleep or you're out,
your body is lying there dead as it were, your spirit can still reason.
…five senses control the man. 

[125]	Now, to the last man, that’s the soul, (one, two, three now,
see?) there is only one sense that controls that, that’s free… moral
agency's free will to choose or to reject. (Now that’s true, but
there’s something else in there don’t worry. You got the right
there, but there’s also something in there.)

[126]	…now the reason that people today… Now, don't forget this now,
and we’ll see what the Holy… what the initial evidence of the Holy
Ghost is. 

[127]	Now, people can live in this spirit, and dance in the spirit.
(Well that’s right, they live and dance in it, sure. Won’t walk
though maybe.) Shout in the spirit. Go to church in the spirit, can be
absolutely have the real Spirit of God anointed on the spirit, (that’s
that second one inside) but still be lost and just as devil-possessed as
they can be, with that spirit. (In other words you can be anointed in
that spirit on your spirit and be devil-possessed, like that woman.
Pentecost, the whole bunch. Now, see, religious.)

[128]	…watch, that's the reason you couldn't tell that woman, her
wearing shorts, was wrong. You couldn't tell her bobbing her hair was
wrong. "Well, what’s  hair got to do with it?" (Like) Samson. (Had a
Nazarite vow.)

56.	Now, he said, listen:

[129]	"Whosoever will add one word or take This, or take a Word." You've
got to have an ultimate somewhere.

	Now what was the woman’s ultimate that led her by a spirit to go
astray? What was her ultimate? Methodist church. Pentecostal? Now, the
Pentecostal. Baptist is a Baptist. 

[130]	Now, for instance, if I was a Baptist man, you came and told me I
must be baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ; it's in the Bible.
…first thing, I'd say, "I'll ask my pastor." 

[131]	And I go to the pastor; and say, "Oh, there’s something back
there, see. …we Baptists, here is what we believe; we believe that we
should be immersed in the titles of 'Father, Son, Holy Ghost.' That's
the way the church did it. John Smith founded it, that's the way it's
done." Well, that's your ultimate. (Not what the Word of God says, what
the pastor says.)

	Now I’m going to have to quit there because our tape’s running out
and time’s gone. 

	Now look, we’ll start there next week, if I’m here next week, and I
likely will be. I don’t intend to leave this world yet and I don’t
know if I’m going to get away for any vacations. So we’re going to
get in here on page, say 18, and we’ll backtrack a little bit over the
body, soul and spirit, and we’ll begin to see why people do what they
do. We’ll begin to see why we are what we are. Why there’s no way
anybody can change us and we got nothing to do with it. Why we’re
going to keep on believing the way we’re going. [End of tape.]
