The Pharisees also came unto him, tempting him, and saying unto him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause? And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female, And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. (Matthew 19:3-6)

19 And so, you know, little Jezebel had learned one thing in her home, and that was to use paint. That’s the heathen trait. Any paint, never in the world, but all painting of faces originated with heathens is always condemned by believers. I hope this goes real far down home, just to make you real good and sick for a few minutes. But now, don’t get angry with me; I love you. But I just want to tell you what’s truth.

Remember, I’ve just returned from the African jungle. Every one, the tribals of heathen, on every kind of an occasion they paint their face and wear great big earrings. The Indian savage heathen paints his face and puts on war paint when he goes in—in the… His war is worship around his idols. He paints.

You ashamed? See? It’s a heathen sign. Too bad it ever got in the Christian church, wasn’t it? Sure was. That was a weak pulpit what brought that in. The preacher ought to be ashamed of himself.

20 So she was used to painting; she made herself a little butterfly. And brother, that’s the kind that can jilt a many a good man. That’s right. See them on the street with a little lip look like a rosebud and a whole lot of Max Factor’s on that, but that’ll never burn out the sin wrinkles. Don’t you never think that. God looks right through it.

And so Jezebel knowed how to put it on to make it look nice. And so when Ahab, this young Jewish boy become king, she put the—the manicure on her eyes, or whatever you call it, you know, and she flapped them back and forth, and Ahab’s heart went tumbling, because he didn’t have God in there to teach him better. That’s right. So my, what a—what a thing that was.

21 Now, when she begin to flirt with Ahab, Ahab married her. He thought, “That’s just the one for me.”

And a many man’s made a mistake like that. A many man has done it. You ought to see her on wash day, or when she gets cleaned up. Really, might change your mind altogether. Women shouldn’t be married by looks anyhow, but by character.

Let me tell you, boy, if you marry her and she’s all painted up, one of these day she’ll fade. Even if she’s pretty, that’ll fail one of these days. Wait till her first baby’s born and the teeth will go to coming out. Little later on, wrinkles will come over her eyes, and the hair get gray. You’ll wake up one morning and wonder what you married. That’s right. I—I mean that, not for a joke. No, sir. That’s true. I’m just laying a background here for something I want to say. See? That’s right.

But if you love her because there’s something about her that you’ve prayed over, and God has joined you together, she can get old and wrinkled and be ugly; that won’t make a bit of difference, you’ll love her through eternity. “What God has joined together, no man could put asunder.” That’s right. So ask God first.

Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me: Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee? And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him. So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses. (Matthew 18:32-35)

33 And those spirits that was in that dear man had drove him insane. And if anyone ever seen an insane person or had to deal with them, they’re many times their—their—their strength, because they are so possessed of the devil. If you was ever around where a—a person lost their mind, oh, it takes several good man to hold them. And they are twice or three times their power.

34 Now, when a person is crippled and the Holy Spirit gets ahold of them, if the devil’s got that much power to make a man three or four times his human strength, how much power can God put in a man? See? That’s what comes upon him to make him walk in the strength of God, where he’s been laying crippled for years. His bones come out straight; and his hands goes straight; he walks, and like a young new man, because the power of the Holy Spirit is on him.

35 Now, these was so evil until they wrapped the man in chains, and he could break them. And they said he plucked them asunder. And there was no—nothing could bind him. He was really a real bad case, because he had a legion of demons in him. And then, when he…Jesus crossed over and come into Gadara and started down by the tombs…And he was so evil, not the man (see?), the man was all right.

36 It’s not the man. When you see a person like that, don’t never think that it’s the man; it’s the devil that’s in the man.

Now, that maniac on the platform that night, was going to kill me, up in Oregon. That man, I—when he come to me, instead of…him spitting in my face and calling me a “snake in the grass” before nearly ten thousand people, well, it wasn’t that, it wasn’t the man. He’s a man that eats, drinks, sleeps, perhaps with a family, and loves, and—and just like I am or you are. But it was that devil in him that was doing that. See?

37 And you never cast a devil out by the wrong attitude. It takes love to do that. And love is the most powerful force that there is in the world. Now, if you notice, a devil is always hate. Hate is of the devil. And when people hate someone, remember, it is a terrible devil to despise or dislike. You mustn’t do that.

And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them, And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me. But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea. (Matthew 18:2-6)

49 I used to work on the railroad out here with Harry Waterberry, and we would go down to load a car. My brother, Doc, standing back there, helps loads cars. When a car is being loaded, they go through that car, the inspector, and if he finds anything loose, where it would fall and break, or anything that would destroy; he’ll not seal that car until that car is so completely packed, until it’s so packed down and so in order, that the shaking of the ride won’t bother the product that’s on the inside.

50 That’s what’s the matter we don’t get sealed so much; we’re too loose about things. When the Inspector goes through, to inspect your life, to see if you’re not just a little loose about things, little loose about your prayer life, little loose about that temper, little loose about that tongue, to talk about others, He’ll never seal the car. Some dirty habits, some vile things, some vulgarity mind, He can’t seal the car.

But when He’s found everything in its place, the Inspector, then He seals it. Dare be anybody open that seal until that car has reached its destination to where it’s sealed for! There it is. “Touch not My anointed; do My prophets no harm. For I say unto you, it’d be better for you that a millstone was hanged at your neck, and you were drowned in the depths of the sea, than even to try to offend or shake a little on the least of these that’s been sealed.” You see what it means?

51 That’s what the Holy Spirit is. It’s your assurance. It’s your protection. It’s your witness. It’s your seal. It’s your sign, that, “I’m Heaven bound. Don’t care what the devil says! I’m Heaven bound. Why? He sealed me. He gave It to me. He sealed me into His Kingdom, and I’m Glory-bound! Let the winds blow, let Satan do what he wants to. God has done sealed me till the day of my redemption.” Amen! That’s what the Holy Ghost is. Oh, you should want It. I couldn’t go on without It. So much could be said there, but I’m sure you know what I’m speaking of.

And Jacob sod pottage: and Esau came from the field, and he was faint: And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray thee, with that same red pottage; for I am faint: therefore was his name called Edom. And Jacob said, Sell me this day thy birthright. And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me? And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he sware unto him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob. Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles; and he did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way: thus Esau despised his birthright. (Genesis 25:29-34)

59 Look at Esau. Esau was a good man, moral, a good church member today. What did he do? He was a hunter. He went out…Course then, that’s how they made their living. He’d taken care of the herds for his father. His daddy was blind. A prophet, a prophet of the Lord was blind and deceived by his own son, a prophet, Isaac; through him come Christ. You can call him prophet, Bible said he was. And was blind? Why didn’t he heal himself? And why didn’t he know that that was Esau—that that was Jacob instead of Esau? See? God don’t tell His prophets everything. He just tells them what He wants them to know. See?

60 God was working out a plan then, and he had to work in it. God…If you’ll submit yourself to God, God will make you work right into His plan.

61 Now, notice what he did, what this fellow did. Esau went out and tried to take care of his poor, old, blind daddy; and Jacob, seemingly, he didn’t care what happened to him. But there’s one thing Jacob wanted, that was the birthright. Regardless of what come, how he had to get it, what level he had to come on, that birthright was all he cared for. And Esau, the Bible said, despised his birthright; the Bible said that. And the Bible said, “Except there come some vain fornicator among you, like that evil person Esau who despised his birthright and sold it for a mess of pottage…”

62 Now, what is a birthright? It’s the right. That’s what I’m trying to tell you now. This Holy Spirit is your Birthright; that’s your Birthright. That’s your God given right. Now, people say today, “I’ll go to church. I’m just as good as the next fellow. But me, act like one of them holy rollers? Not me.” Well, you Esau! See? It’s just the same thing, despising the birthright. Why, he swapped it for a mess of pottage. And you sell it ma-…I don’t say you, but the world sells it for a lot less than that.

63 Esau was hungry. But, you see, if goodness would be counted…If somebody…If we walked up there and stayed around the tent for a—a few days, we’d find out that Esau was…We’d have picked Esau. See? But in his heart he wanted that birthright. He didn’t care about anything else; he wanted that birthright. That’s all he wanted.

And they did eat and drink, he and the men that were with him, and tarried all night; and they rose up in the morning, and he said, Send me away unto my master. And her brother and her mother said, Let the damsel abide with us a few days, at the least ten; after that she shall go. And he said unto them, Hinder me not, seeing the Lord hath prospered my way; send me away that I may go to my master. And they said, We will call the damsel, and enquire at her mouth. And they called Rebekah, and said unto her, Wilt thou go with this man? And she said, I will go. (Genesis 24:54-58)

197 God’s looking for character, not membership. Character! Eliezer, when he went to get the Bride of—of—of Isaac, he sweated it out until he found character. Remember, Abraham put him responsible as God puts us responsible, that’s right, we ministers. “Hunt My Bride!” God bless your heart. I ain’t looking for members, I’m looking for the pure in heart, see, somebody that’ll believe the Word.

198 Eliezer looked, and he thought, “Oh, I can’t do this myself. There’s too much responsibility. I’m realize the responsibility of finding Isaac…” Which, is type of the Church, you know, Christ; Rebekah, the type of the Bride. And Eliezer got down on his knees and said, “God, You—You just have to help me.” And when he referred to God, God helped him. He got character.

199 Come back to the Word, brother. Come back to God. Don’t pay any attention to this church you belong to. You can stay there if you want to, if they’ll let you. But, the thing to do first, is, come to God. That’s right. This is the end-time evangelism. Yes, sir. Character!

200 And when he found out, and then when Eliezer found the character that was in the woman, Rebekah, the beautiful bride of Isaac, he told her about Isaac. And she never questioned one thing. She believed the word of the messenger, and she made ready to go. And they went, asked the father, he said, “Just ask her, the damsel’s of age. Ask her, let her decision be.”

201 She said, “I will go.” To what? A man she had never seen, knowed nothing about. But yet she was ready, because she was predestinated and foreordained to that. Exactly right.

And the servant took ten camels of the camels of his master, and departed; for all the goods of his master were in his hand: and he arose, and went to Mesopotamia, unto the city of Nahor. And he made his camels to kneel down without the city by a well of water at the time of the evening, even the time that women go out to draw water. And he said, O Lord God of my master Abraham, I pray thee, send me good speed this day, and shew kindness unto my master Abraham. Behold, I stand here by the well of water; and the daughters of the men of the city come out to draw water: And let it come to pass, that the damsel to whom I shall say, Let down thy pitcher, I pray thee, that I may drink; and she shall say, Drink, and I will give thy camels drink also: let the same be she that thou hast appointed for thy servant Isaac; and thereby shall I know that thou hast shewed kindness unto my master. (Genesis 24:10-14)

39 Now, just in closing, I’d like to say this. On our little subject tonight, the decision… Eliezer… Did you notice, when he come… Now, Isaac was a type of Christ. Through Isaac come Christ. And then, Rebekah was a type of the Church. Did you notice the—the Bride… And Eliezer found Rebekah in the evening time. The sign was performed in the evening time. That’s the time we’re living in. I trust that you get this.

It was in the evening time when Rebekah came out led by the Spirit. Do you believe that? How otherwise would she have come? There might have been many before her. But she was led by the Spirit in the evening time. And Eliezer, the messenger, the minister, the true servant to his master, was led in the evening time. And the true servant had left his creeds and things behind him and made up his mind that he was going to trust God in the evening time.

40 Wonder why that Rebekah came before any of the other girls. Did you know that Rebekah and Isaac was blood relation? Cousins. And the Bride of Jesus Christ is blood relation to Him: a Blood bought Bride. No wonder she was led by the Spirit. There was a connection coming together. There was a union coming together.

That’s the reason I think today that the borned again, the—the Holy Ghost filled people is connected with God and are led by the Spirit of God. That’s why they act so peculiar to the people. They’ve made their decisions. They’re going to go on out; regardless if the rest of them don’t go out, they’re going anyhow. I like that.

Don’t care if this one walks or that one walks, I’m going to walk anyhow. I don’t care whether this one… of what they say, I don’t… They call me anything they want to, I’m going anyhow. Why? The Life is in the Blood. And the Life is in the Church, the Christian that’s borned again by the Spirit of God. That’s the Spirit of Life, Blood relation to Christ. The Spirit of Christ in the Blood of Christ leading a child of Christ, the seed of Abraham. That’s why they move peculiarly. That’s why the world thinks so strange of them.

41 And remember, Rebekah, hardly knowing what she was doing, yet she watered the same animal, the camel, that was to take her to her bridegroom, to her husband, her lover. And always a beast of burden in the Bible represents a power. Like the beast come up out of the sea in Revelations, it was a power that raised up among the people.

And this beast was being watered. Rebekah watering the same beast that she rode on, that taken her away from her place here to her new home, is a type of the Church today, watering and blessing the same Holy Spirit that’s going to lift It up and take It to Its new home. The Church that’s praising and blessing and watering with thanksgiving to the Holy Ghost Who has brought the Word to you…

Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying, This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me. But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. (Matthew 15:7-9)

241 Now notice, “if it was possible,” in these days. Only one Word, one Word is needed. That’s all Satan had to have to Adam, just get Him on one Word. That’s all he has to have today, just get one thing turned around. That’s all, that’s all he needs. Now, you know that’s the Truth. To add one, or take one, it’s total failure. Every bit, “Every Word of God!” Think now of the interpretations of the seminaries, every one different from the other.

242 There has to be a Truth somewhere, and this is It, the Bible. Now Jesus said…

243 You say, “Well, Brother Branham, they have the most beautiful worship.”

244 Jesus said, “In vain do they worship Me, teaching for doctrine the theology of man, not the Word,” man, his own conception of the Word being interpreted.

245 As I have said, God don’t need no interpreter. He interprets every Word Himself. See, you don’t need somebody to interpret It to you, God interprets it to you when you’re willing to accept It. See, that’s the Life, that’s Life Itself.

246 Jesus said, “In vain they worship Me.” They actually worship God. Cain actually worshiped God, in the beginning. “But in vain do they worship Me.” What’s vain? “It don’t do no good.”

247 They might say, “Well, I do this. I dance in the spirit. I, I speak in tongues. I, I prophesy. I preach the Gospel.” But fail to let your hair grow out, fail on one thing, and see what happens, the Spirit will leave you right there. That’s what’s happened to our churches, failed.

248 “In vain, worshiping Me. Oh, it’s a beautiful worship. But in vain do they worship Me, teaching for doctrine the commandments of man.”

249 Those Pharisees were learned theologians. Don’t you dare to say we got anything today to compare with them. No, indeedy. They knowed one word, every word, just the way it was written, but in vain they were worshiping. Think of it, “in vain,” big fine schools, and seminaries, and teachers, and young man, and everything like that, but lost!

250 Same as the wilderness, He said, “They all eat manna from that spiritual Rock in the wilderness, they all drink from that Rock, I mean, and they all eat manna out of it.” And Jesus said, “And they’re, every one, dead.” Death means “Eternally separated.” Why? Because they failed to believe the promise of God.

And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water. And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus. But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me. (Matthew 14:28-30)

Jesus said, “Why did you fear?” Peter come walking on the water, doing fine until he seen the waves were contrary, then he got scared and begin to sink. Jesus come, picked him up, said, “Why did you fear, oh ye of little faith?” Fear, you’re scared it won’t happen. Don’t have one bit of fear; move forward. God said so; that settles it.

46 And you can’t do that until you have love. Perfect love casts out all fear. If I want to contribute anything to my success in the ministry amongst people, is this: I’ll admit I’ve had to butcher up meetings because I just couldn’t set it and—and… routine, like ministers do.

And many times I’ve had to promise this, and take this back, and do this, and do that. Because God will make me do it. But if there’s one thing, is because that I have loved people. And people knows that.

You take a little baby three months old, he ne… he don’t know nothing. He’s got a mind, but it isn’t developed. He don’t know who, or nothing. The doctors say they can see a light, might see your hand, but they can only follow it. And he will just be kicking his little heels, and screaming to the top of his voice. Well, here comes some kind woman, comes along passing him, say, “Well, well, dear.” He just kicks right on. He don’t know who the woman is. He don’t know nobody.

47 But let that mother walk up, just put her hands on him. That settles it. Now, he don’t know his mother. But his little spirit knows there’s something about that spirit there, that nothing else can inject that mother love to him, no matter how much the other person loves. It ain’t the mother’s love. Is that right?

And she lays her hands on him, he will dry up. See, he’s ready. Because that mother, there is a love about her, that goes to the baby, that the baby’s little spirit recognizes that that’s a love that no other love is.

No wonder He ordained us to lay hands on the sick. Take a horse when he’s all bothered, jumping and jerking. You western people ought to know that. You just let the master walk into the stall and probably say, “Whoa, boy,” lay his hands on him, he quieten right down. See, it’s love.

48 And when we love God with all of our hearts, souls, and minds, and we love one another as ourselves, our neighbors as ourselves, the people can actually feel that. You can’t put it on. You can’t make a belief, ’cause they’ll know it.

I believe Lincoln said one time, “You can fool part of the people, part of the time, but not all of the people, all of the time.” And that’s right. And if you’ve got love in your heart for the people, they’ll know it. You might act indifferent or anything, but still they know it. They can feel it. It’s another dimension, as we call it, that injects to these people a love that they know it. And they’ll believe it. And that’s when you can help the person, when you believe it.

For Herod had laid hold on John, and bound him, and put him in prison for Herodias' sake, his brother Philip's wife. For John said unto him, It is not lawful for thee to have her. And when he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet. But when Herod's birthday was kept, the daughter of Herodias danced before them, and pleased Herod. Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatsoever she would ask. And she, being before instructed of her mother, said, Give me here John Baptist's head in a charger. (Matthew 14:3-8)

Now, isn’t that just exactly like preachers today? The way the congregation wants to do, that’s the way the preacher preaches to them. I want to tell you: a God-sent, Holy Ghost borned preacher won’t compromise with any congregation. That’s right.

Could you imagine John the Baptist, when they brought out Herodias that night, and Herod. Why, John walked right to his face, and said, “It’s not lawful for you to have her.” That man had the Holy Ghost. He didn’t compromise; he told the truth. And what about it now? It’s all over. What will it be at the day of judgment, when the head of John the Baptist rolls up before Herodias? What will it be then?

26 Brother, if you’re ever going to make a stand for God, make it now. This is the time. Now’s the time when we need of it. Now’s the time when the church is weighed in the balance and found wanting. After all these great miracles, and signs, and wonders that God has sent men across the country doing, and yet the church is in the poorest, backslidden state I ever run up in years. That’s right. I’m preaching to Pentecostals. Amen.

When I first come among your groups ten years ago, it looked like a church; but today it looks like the world. It’s the truth. Something happened somewhere. You got to wearing better clothes, got to making a little more money, and it just made a sap out of you; that’s all. Now, you… That’s the truth. That’s right. You’re trying to—you’re trying to act like the rest of the world.

You just take… Today is a compromising time. That’s true. You paint your steps red and watch and see if your neighbor don’t paint his steps red. Sure. You wear a little round hat to church with a little feather up in it and watch all the women come to church with a little round hat and a feather up in it. That’s right. Yes, sir. All of them want to look like one another.

27 It’s a matching time. You know that’s true. It’s a matching time. Amen. That must’ve went home. That’s right. Listen. That is true. Now, I’m going to tell you, my brother: I don’t care whether my shoes match my trousers, or my trousers matches my coat. I want my experience to match God’s Bible. That’s the matching time.

If you want to match something, match your experience against Paul’s. Amen. That’s what we need today, is a matching time with Paul’s faith in the Bible. That’s our example. Right. Real matching time… Don’t try to match your neighbor; match—match some of the saints of the Bible. If you’re a saint, act like a saint, walk like a saint, dress like a saint, talk like a saint, pray like a saint, believe like a saint, shout like a saint, be like a saint, live like a saint, die like a saint and go to heaven like a saint. Amen.

How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms; (Isaiah 14:12-16)

69 See, Satan was the original archangel of God. He once dwelt in the Heaven. He once was the greatest person in the heavens outside of God. He was God’s right-hand man to fellowship, and he got puffed up in his heart.

70 And isn’t that just the way that people get today? Let God just bless a fellow and put a little confidence in him, and he gets to be a know-it-all. He gets to be…He’s got to start an organization, or he’s got to do something that’s different. “Why art thou fallen from Heaven, O Lucifer!”

71 It’s…God has a hard time trying to get somebody that He can deal with, that’ll stay humble, and meek, and stay in the place until God calls him to do something (you believe that? See?), a man that God can bless and he’ll still keep hisself a man, not be an angel or a god. As soon as man gets blessed and has a little something given to him, he wants to become a god; he wants to become a—a angel. He wants to become some great person. “What I do, what…Me and me and mine…” all that. That’s the wrong attitude. God’s hunting for somebody who He could bless and pour out the blessings, and—and more He blessed, the littler the man will become.

72 And you’ll never get more of God until you become nothing. You’ve got to belittle yourself. He that will exalt himself, God will bring abase. He that will humble himself, God will exalt. You’ve got to get little before you can get big. And you’ll never be big in your own self; you’ll only be as big as God will be big in you. See?

73 So Lucifer is on earth today trying to work in the church to accomplish the same purpose that he started before the foundation of the world. Lucifer was kicked out of Heaven. All right.
