  1. Molding the model. May Madison be a model molding the

  2. model Brother Jesse saw one twenty seven and verse number three.

  3. Low children are inheritage of the Lord, and the fruit

  4. of the room is his reward.

  5. Amen, Brother Nathaniel Matthew, Chapter number eighteen and verse number two, Please,

  6. my brother. And Jesus called a little child unto him

  7. and set him in the midst of them. All right,

  8. let's stand for the reading of our golden text Matthew,

  9. nineteen thirteen and fourteen. All right, reading our golden texts, Matthew,

  10. nineteen thirteen and fourteen. The Bible said, then, where they're

  11. broad unto him, little children, that he should put his

  12. hands on them and pray. And the disciples rebuked them,

  13. But Jesus said, suffer little.

  14. Children, and forbid them.

  15. Not to come unto me, For of such is the

  16. kingdom of heaven. May we pray, Heavenly Father, we love

  17. and we praise you. We thank you for this, precious people,

  18. we think you preaching everyone that has come today to worship.

  19. You in spirit and in truth.

  20. I thank you for this grief of holy rollers, people

  21. that are the lovers of the book, peepers of people

  22. that are.

  23. Lovers of the truth. I thank you for that. I

  24. pray that you would have want this, thy servants, out

  25. of God of thy mouth.

  26. Help me to say the things you would happy to say,

  27. nothing more or less, and not the ears of this

  28. thy people, that they might hear what the spirit of

  29. God says. Or to the Church, we pray God, help

  30. us to be molded by your words, shaped and form

  31. to your glory in Jesus' name. And the Church said, Amen,

  32. as you're being seated, look at your neighbor and say, hey, neighbor.

  33. Are you a model Praise the Lord preaching a servant.

  34. The Holy Ghost titled molding the model. Purpose of gathering

  35. this morning is to worship the Lord and the beauty

  36. of holiness, and to worship Him in spirit and in truth.

  37. And another reason why we are gathered together today is

  38. to dedicate baby Madison Kinsey Howell. Two or three weeks ago,

  39. brother Samuel Howell contacted me and he said, Pastor, I

  40. was wondering if I could get baby Madison dedicated before

  41. she outgrew her baby dedication gal And oh how adorable

  42. she is. This morning. I've looked at her several times.

  43. I've looked at her today more than I have in

  44. past services, because.

  45. I know what is going on.

  46. I know what her parents desire to do today. I

  47. know the thoughts and the intents of her parent's heart

  48. concerning her.

  49. They want to give her back to the Lord.

  50. As we look in this particular book of the Bible,

  51. Brother Nathaniel, we find it to be the first book

  52. of the New Testament. And in this book of the

  53. Bible we find the beginning of ministries, we find the

  54. first callings of disciples, we find a lot of beginnings.

  55. So again, this particular book of the Bible is the

  56. beginning of the New Testament.

  57. It's the beginning of something different, something new, the New Covenant.

  58. This morning, our attention is focused on a little one

  59. named Madison Kinsey Howell, who is a little infant in

  60. the early stages.

  61. Of her life. Have you looked at her today? I have.

  62. I've looked at her several times, and I have found

  63. her to be also cute, so adorable.

  64. I believe she is.

  65. Anyhow as her grandfather, her papa, I believe she's the

  66. cutest thing in the world. And I feel the same

  67. way about the other fourteen At this time, Sister Howell

  68. and I have fifteen grandchildren, and we're expecting two more

  69. before the.

  70. End of the year. Is it God good?

  71. I'm thankful for Sister Howell as Mimi or as grandmother

  72. because of the example that she is for these parents

  73. and these grandchildren.

  74. And I have found that Mimi is not hesitant at all.

  75. Never is she reluctant to put her little hands upon

  76. these grandchildren and to help assist the parents. During these

  77. molding years, I was praying, I was asking God to

  78. speak to me concerning baby Madison's dedication, and Brother Nathaniel,

  79. I was very excited when he spoke the title this

  80. Morning's message into my heart.

  81. Could you imagine when.

  82. You hear the words molding the model, how excited I

  83. must have been at that moment when I realized God

  84. had given.

  85. Me something for this father and mother for their child.

  86. And as we look at this Golden Text, I see

  87. some words that I misunderstood as a child. If you

  88. look at the latter part of our Golden Text, namely,

  89. specifically verse number fourteen, you find these words suffer little children,

  90. Brother Nathaniel, when I was a young child, probably between

  91. the ages of six and ten. During that time of

  92. my life when a preacher would mention the scripture, I

  93. misunderstood the meaning.

  94. It didn't make sense to me.

  95. I didn't think Jesus was one to make little boys

  96. and girls suffer. But that verse of scripture puzzled me.

  97. Those three words bothered me. Those three words stopped me

  98. in my tracks, had made me think, can someone be

  99. so cruel as to require the suffering of little children?

  100. But then I read a little further and I saw

  101. the word not forbid them not. So you guessed that

  102. the words suffer little children bothered me. But when I

  103. saw the words forbid them not, I was comforted. And

  104. now I understand what the Lord Jesus was saying when

  105. he spoke these words unto his disciples. He was saying

  106. he didn't want little ones to suffer. He was rebuking

  107. those within his inner circle and was telling them to

  108. allow the children to come unto him. And how many

  109. presents today believe that little children are always welcome to

  110. get in the presence of the Lord. A couple of

  111. weeks ago, at the end of one of our services,

  112. one of our elder sisters stood up and said, I

  113. would like to testify, if that would be all right,

  114. Brother Nathaniel granted her permission to do so. And while

  115. she was testifying, an elder brother in our church, brother

  116. Thomas Dare, gave out a message in Tongu's and Brother

  117. Nathaniel interpreted that message, and in that moment, instantly one

  118. of my granddaughters, Rebecca, was convicted in her heart, and

  119. she knelt down to pray and to be saved at

  120. the age of three. The spirit of God was molding

  121. little Rebecca.

  122. The Kingdom's doors aren't closed to.

  123. Little boys and little girls like Madison, our Golden Texas

  124. in the nineteenth chapter of Matthew.

  125. But as I turned back to the eighteenth chapter, my

  126. heart was warned all the more as I looked at

  127. the first few verses of.

  128. This eighteenth chapter and allowed my eyes to fall upon it,

  129. and sometimes I begin to take in when those words

  130. were speaking to me. They had asked him a question

  131. about it, out Greatness, Apparently there was a question in

  132. the minds and hearts of these disciples. You never know

  133. what's going on under the surface. When church people gather

  134. together to get in the very presence of Jesus, you

  135. really have no idea what's going on under the surface,

  136. and who would have thought that while Jesus was ministering

  137. and doing everything that he did that was so good,

  138. that these disciples would be asking questions concerning greatness. I'm thinking,

  139. brother Aaron, one of them thought like this, I wonder

  140. who is the greatest disciple. Perhaps another one thought something

  141. like this, I wonder who will be in the King's

  142. court once he establishes kingdom. Another one might have thought,

  143. who will head up his administration and cabinet?

  144. Another one probably thought who will be the general in

  145. his army.

  146. The Lord Jesus had an answer that let them down.

  147. In fact, his answer stopped them in their tracks and rocked.

  148. Them back on their heels.

  149. When the Lord summons a little child to come unto him,

  150. and when the Lord plomped that little child down in

  151. their midst smack dab in the middle of the omens, said,

  152. let me have.

  153. Your attention.

  154. To all of you that are aspiring greatness, to all

  155. of you that want to be a model in my kingdom.

  156. I'll show you who the model is.

  157. Now.

  158. Parents, I want you to get the context of what's

  159. going on here. This is a little child that no

  160. doubt had been shaped by the hands and the raisin

  161. of its parents and Jesus what did that particular child

  162. as the model to present to his disciples, which was

  163. to be an example as to how they were to

  164. be the parents. I don't want to ask you, how

  165. are you doing with them molding the model? If Jesus

  166. was here today and he needed a little child to

  167. use as.

  168. An example deuring a sermon or during.

  169. An illustration, whose child would he reach for? Which little

  170. child would he take by the hand and walk out

  171. of the midst of the congregation and set them before us?

  172. You are molding the model. Some parent in the midst

  173. of all of these people had done a great job

  174. molding the model. Brother Nathaniel, your daughter Rebecca is the

  175. one that the Lord laid on my heart to come forward.

  176. As I open my eyes, she's coming down to center all.

  177. So if you would, Brother Nathaniel, come put her in

  178. his chair, stand right here behind her, sit behind her.

  179. You are molding the model. I'm feel it in my

  180. soul right here right now. Do y'all feel that? Do

  181. y'all understand what I'm saying? Can Jesus use you to

  182. shape and mold those little models that He has put

  183. in your hand?

  184. When we speak of modeling, That is the act of

  185. creating something by casting it in a mold.

  186. Right, And when we speak of creating something, we're speaking

  187. of shaping or casting or forming it. Brother Samuel, how will,

  188. father to baby Madison Kinsey?

  189. How will?

  190. The Bible said that.

  191. We are to bring our children up and the nurture

  192. and the admonition of the Lord. And I feel like

  193. you have answered the heavenly call to do such a

  194. thing as that, because each and every service I see

  195. you bring that little bundle of joy into the house

  196. of the Lord, and you're allowing that baby to be

  197. created into something that is meat or sufficient for the

  198. use of the Master. The Bible said that we are

  199. to be meet for the Master's use, being capable and

  200. able to be used by the Lord.

  201. Now, I don't feel like this child was an unruly child.

  202. The Bible said concerning the baby Moses.

  203. That he was a goodly child. And it was that

  204. goodly child the Lord eased. Now, if your child is

  205. not a goodly child, do not expect God to use it.

  206. The Bible spoke concerning Samuel, he was a good, fine

  207. specimen of an individual in the house of God.

  208. He was a little model when parents would bring their families.

  209. To the Senate God or the Temple or the Tabernacle,

  210. there would be those that were within such a structure

  211. that were good role models. They were model Christians. They

  212. were a model priest. They were model priests. That there

  213. were model prophets, and they were model saints. The apostle

  214. Paul was a model apostle, a model disciple.

  215. He was one without hesitation and contempt.

  216. Those coming along beside him follow me as I follow Christ,

  217. be shaped and be formed.

  218. In order to match me, Brother Jesse.

  219. When I think of Jesus plucking this little child out

  220. of their minst and putting them in front of everybody

  221. and schooling them concerning that little child, Brother Jesse, their

  222. question is Who's gonna be the greatest?

  223. Now the Roman Catholic Church they teach that Peter was

  224. the first poop. I don't believe that. I strongly disagree

  225. with that. And this is not a Bible class. This

  226. is the baby dedication ceremony. But if that was true,

  227. don't you think in this moment, but that question was

  228. asked who is the greatest, that Jesus would have said,

  229. thou art Peter, your pope, of what is to be

  230. a Roman Catholic church. When the question was asked who

  231. is the greatest, A lot of people might have expected

  232. him to select James or John. Right, I'd say more

  233. votes would have been cast into certing John. John must

  234. be the greatest because he's always the closest. That's the

  235. disciple that loves Jesus. He's the one that Jesus loves.

  236. Has gotta be John. But brother, he went and got

  237. a child, and he put that child down in front

  238. of them. I can't emphasize that enough because even amongst

  239. Pentecostal and Holiness people today, there is an heir. When

  240. you go in the House of God, everybody's wondering who

  241. is the greatest preacher, who is the greatest teaching, who

  242. is the greatest minister, who is the greatest prayer warrior,

  243. who's the greatest praise warrior, Who's the greatest saying, Who's

  244. the most holy? Who's the most unholy? And Jesus would

  245. do the same for the Pentecostal and Holiness movements today

  246. as he did then. He would look around and he

  247. would scold us for the thoughts of our hearts. Words

  248. that were not spoken would be revealed faults and deeds

  249. and were committed, and darkness would be brought to light,

  250. and Jesus would dissect the problem and offer us a

  251. remedy and a solution, and tell us what you need

  252. is humility.

  253. You need humility. Are y'all with me?

  254. The Lord Jesus' sir, was without a doubt displeasing that

  255. everybody that was present, because everybody knows that people love

  256. to worship people.

  257. You're in a country that has a TV series.

  258. Program, reality Seria, whatever you call it, called American idol.

  259. When the Lord called a little child to him and

  260. plopped that little child down in the middle of them,

  261. he was giving everybody a verbal.

  262. Slap in the face. That was the person they least

  263. expected to be the greatest.

  264. And Jesus said, barely, I said to you, except you

  265. be converted and become as little children, ye shall not

  266. enter into the Kingdom of Heaven.

  267. I want to say it again.

  268. Noticed the Lord did not point a finger at Peter

  269. James or John, nor did he point any dignitary in

  270. the crowd. Jesus pointed a finger at a little child.

  271. I to place that little child at the center of attention.

  272. You want attention become as a child. I've seen people

  273. come to church if want to be the center of attention.

  274. I'm telling you I.

  275. Could exhort on that right now for thirty minutes of

  276. people that call themselves the children of God come to

  277. a worship service where we're to lift up the.

  278. Name of God and to lift up the Lord Jesus Christ.

  279. And somehow in the company.

  280. Of three to four or thirty to forty, or three

  281. hundred to four hundred, there's somebody in that place want attention.

  282. There's somebody in that place want recognition. Oh, come on now,

  283. But Jesus wanted his disciples to take notice of the characteristics,

  284. the behaviors, the actions, and the nature.

  285. Of a little child. Did y'all catch that.

  286. Jesus wanted his disciples to take notice of the characteristics,

  287. the behaviors, the actions, and the natures of that particular

  288. little child that had to have been.

  289. A well behaved child.

  290. I've never heard a preacher preach along these lines. There

  291. is no outline available anywhere.

  292. That I know of.

  293. I know my God in Heaven brought this to my attention,

  294. that this child was.

  295. Selectable to be a model for Jesus to use in

  296. his illustration. Now, if your child's running all over the

  297. place before during an actor church, do you think that child.

  298. Is such a person or such a model.

  299. I want my child to be one of them that

  300. when parents go home they say, did you see how

  301. so and so was acting today? That's how I want

  302. you to act. Apostle Paul was concerned about the actions

  303. of some of the other Christians, so they made it

  304. clear to Timothy and other believers forget about what they're doing.

  305. I am your role.

  306. Model, I am your example. I am who you are

  307. to follow.

  308. And if anybody else is doing otherwise, don't follow them,

  309. follow me.

  310. And that's what I'm saying out here in our church

  311. today and in other churches within Christendom, within Pentecostal and

  312. holiness movements, we need good examples. We as saints of God,

  313. as what's supposed to.

  314. Be the cream of the crop. We're supposed to.

  315. Be molding the models of Christianity and shaping this holiness movement.

  316. I could really preach, but I'm trying nothing to get

  317. too excited. So we've already asked the question, can Jesus

  318. use your child as a model for how sweet nature

  319. the child should be?

  320. When I came down here about eighteen and.

  321. A half years ago, Sister woot And and some of the

  322. older saints put things this way concerning people. They said, well,

  323. that's how their nature. I was from Central Florida. I

  324. never heard anybody use that expression when reacting and responding

  325. to the actions of somebody, whether it was appropriate or inappropriate,

  326. whether or not they behave themselves wisely or unwisely. Sister

  327. Wooton would explain it as this, that's just how they

  328. are natured, and as that she's saying, they are the

  329. product of their parents molding, and this is their nature.

  330. You know why that panther was attempting to slave brother

  331. Philip because it had a mother that had taught it

  332. how to kill. And from what I've observed, Madison has

  333. a good nature.

  334. That is a goodly child. I feel that in my

  335. soul she has a good nature.

  336. But do you know a grandmother, a mom, a grandfather,

  337. or a dad could corrupt that good nature by being

  338. a bad example.

  339. And by my understanding, they are molding the bottel when

  340. I hear that.

  341. It has entered into our holiness churches, that women think

  342. nothing of wearing sheer material from their wrist on all

  343. the way to their shoulder without feeling the need to

  344. put an undershirt underneath, therefore exposing the entire length.

  345. Of their arm to the human eye.

  346. That is not.

  347. Properly molding the model, that is not setting forth a

  348. good example for the upcoming generation.

  349. There is no way I will ever believe. I will

  350. always believe.

  351. That there is something grossly roam in the heart of

  352. what is called a holiness. Woman who was raised in

  353. the House of God by holiness parents, there's.

  354. No nothing all of her life but holiness.

  355. All of a sudden to feel no need whatsoever to

  356. be modest. A woman that has always gave her clothes

  357. a second look, a woman that's always pull things out

  358. that needed to be pulled out, A woman's always pull

  359. things down that need to be down, those that have

  360. changed or proves in order to appeal and appear to

  361. be modest. How could such a person as that decide

  362. I'm going to wear sleeves of sheer material, transparent, so

  363. that every young person in that building seize my bare arms.

  364. We're not talking about people of nominal churches that haven't

  365. been raised better.

  366. We're not talking about people of nominal churches that have

  367. beach parties and then practice fixed bathing and participate in

  368. things like that.

  369. Co edit activities.

  370. We're not talking about somebody like Sister Charity, how that

  371. was raised an Assembly of God where the youth pastor

  372. took them all out water skiing, right where the guys

  373. and the girls in their swim trunks and in their

  374. bikinis and made it says God in a boat and

  375. did water sports all day long on Saturday.

  376. We're not talking about somebody like that.

  377. We're talking about independent holiness, fireap tires people, free holiness people,

  378. Church of God people, Assembly of God people, people that

  379. were once convicted, people that knew.

  380. They needed and knew better, people that.

  381. Made adjustments before they walked out of their house.

  382. People that changed close before they walk out of their health.

  383. There's no way I will ever believe that they don't

  384. have wrong intentions. Somebody sent me a picture of one

  385. of the main singers in a holiness church talking about

  386. molding the model. You feel like it doesn't matter, huh.

  387. You feel like the little kids aren't taking notice and

  388. notes of what we're doing. We aren't creating a monster.

  389. And somebody better wake up and back up. Somebody better

  390. turn around and had in a different direction. You know

  391. what you're doing. You know you're chasing fields. You know

  392. you're heading in the wrong direction. You know you've taken

  393. the broadway. You know that compromising monster is a beast

  394. that is never satisfied. You know what you're doing, lead singer,

  395. when you walk into a Holiness church and you've got

  396. on a V neck blouse and stop plunging just below

  397. the collar ball.

  398. But in that picture of that person sent.

  399. Me and they asked me to try to plain to

  400. them how a person in an independent Holiness church come

  401. here justin wrote.

  402. Gap could walk into the.

  403. Holiness church with a V neck blouse plunging all the

  404. way down to that button right there, right, No, there

  405. was not an undershirt underneath it. That's why that holiness

  406. pastor sent me a message and said.

  407. How can this be? How can somebody that I shouted.

  408. With, I was in their company, in their presence only

  409. seven to ten years ago. How can this be even tolerated?

  410. How can this be acceptable? And here's what I said.

  411. There are certain people that call themselves Pentecostal and call

  412. themselves holiness who have shorter things that what sister Howell

  413. would wear. They've got lines in a little bit alone

  414. word gonna want sister, how on would wear?

  415. But I said, even those people who seemed to be

  416. very loose with there to wear.

  417. A V neck blouse and plunged into the no nodes on.

  418. I'm telling you there's deeper issues going on with a

  419. mother of Israel thinks nothing.

  420. No, se didn't forget her under shirt. When a mother

  421. of Israel thanks nothing of walking.

  422. In a church.

  423. She didn't walking about us. He didn't walk in a cloud.

  424. I would have expected of the dress like that.

  425. But see walked in a shirt.

  426. You know what she's doing.

  427. She's moading the model. So about ten years from now,

  428. gim little children.

  429. And a minute to the model, and they're gonna be

  430. the model for.

  431. The next generation.

  432. And nobody's going there one thing about modesty.

  433. They don't think anything of it. They don't care about it,

  434. Brother road Cap.

  435. They need me to demonstrate again, Come my, brother, Roadcap.

  436. I've got that picture. They're right there.

  437. Holding his church. The pastor's wife.

  438. Must have been a bad example, because the second picture

  439. that came in was of the pastor and his wife,

  440. and the pastor's wife standing there in a sleeve that

  441. is made of sheer material. I remember going around them

  442. people when that hair bun was so tight.

  443. And that neckline was so high.

  444. Their brother, jeremy assistant Charity, did a clothing check before

  445. we walked in that place. Yeah, and that preacher said,

  446. do you see.

  447. How far they're gone and how low they've foughten? I said,

  448. who couldn't see it? My brother sister, and they think

  449. nothing of it but their mold and the model.

  450. I could have really preached us tonight, you know. But

  451. I'm gonna leave it as a baby dedication and talk my.

  452. Way through it. Slow down.

  453. But brother Philip, it is an intentional attack, an intentional attack.

  454. On the little ones. Because I'm gonna tell you something.

  455. A woman of this world may not know any better, but.

  456. I would say her own conscience lets her know why

  457. she's doing what she's doing.

  458. But a holiness woman, I'm gonna say, without a doubt,

  459. she is demonically towards used and right now because she's

  460. listening if she's in a rage.

  461. And just the same way Herodius one to headed John

  462. Deboga's her and her past both.

  463. Would want my head. But I'm not the hypocrite here.

  464. I haven't changed my message.

  465. And don't they know how to say, you are judging them?

  466. Don't they know how to say you're criticizing them. Don't

  467. they know how to say nobody should be sharing and

  468. sending pictures like that?

  469. Oh, don't they know.

  470. How to say, you're being kind and sending Know what

  471. we're doing is helping everybody know what a difficult they are.

  472. And we're letting all of our little models know they're

  473. not the model.

  474. And I dare say, if Apostle Paul was alive today,

  475. he would print the picture out and send it out

  476. to all of the churches and say, this is not

  477. how a model Christian is to dress, because I've said

  478. it for years. What we do in moderation, our children

  479. will do in excess. But it doesn't stop there. The

  480. preacher said that you notice that the pastor's wife has

  481. the same thing going on, a V neckblouse, a plunging

  482. necklight into the No nosone, I said, no, I did

  483. not notice that. He said, I'm telling you where the

  484. woman got it from. She got it from the pastor's wife.

  485. And I'll tell y'all where the pastor's wife got it

  486. from from the pastor.

  487. Because I prayed about it. I can't imagine a holiness

  488. man looking at his wife's sister Needley.

  489. And know one she's about to walk out of his

  490. holiness home, his holiness wife, out of his holiness home

  491. into his holiness church, and the husband's side of him

  492. not have a problem with.

  493. The fact.

  494. The things that have never been shown for forty years

  495. are now exposed. Areas on the body that haven't seen daylight,

  496. much less the lights of the House of God for

  497. forty something years. Now they're being exposed. No matter how

  498. you look at it, they're wilfully choosing to mold the models.

  499. They are molding the models. I'm gonna sit again. They

  500. are molding the models. And if Jesus was to illustrate

  501. this morning on modesty, could he pull them out of

  502. the crowd and set them in our midst to say,

  503. this is a model Christian, This is the attire of

  504. a modest Christian. This is the way a Christian dresses,

  505. Brother Jesse of The only deeclusion I can come to

  506. is they simply do not care.

  507. And if you think on it, pray much more about it,

  508. to the conclusion that he is wanting indecent exposure.

  509. Because the God's honest shrewth is is if the first Lady,

  510. the beat of the Holiness Church.

  511. Even attempted to walk in our living room like that,

  512. there would be consequences, right.

  513. Don't y'all believe when that woman walked in as first Lady,

  514. all of the molding of them elder.

  515. Sisters, all of those years was immediately destroyed. And they

  516. get upset that a Holiness pastor while preaching revived.

  517. We would get a little bit excited when his spirit.

  518. Collides with counterfeit charismatic spirits, and they would say that

  519. preacher's actions are unbecoming and unjustified God. And then they

  520. want us to sit by the wayside and act like

  521. they're not dingy, dirty dogy perverts. I mean, didn't take

  522. about a perverted soul to stand there and say, I'm

  523. gonna pick this glass out. I won't say people that

  524. are struggling with a link to the skirt, whether bottom

  525. of the calf, mint calf, or upper calf, they wouldn't

  526. go into that area. I know Baptist, Presbyterian, Lutheran, and Apostolic.

  527. I may name me some more.

  528. Presbyterian, Lutheran, episcopalian, a Baptists name me some more.

  529. Some guys got churchill Christ.

  530. I know a lot of people that are concerned about

  531. being modest that.

  532. Wouldn't dare do that.

  533. Now. I will never believe that a holiness person doesn't

  534. have bad intention.

  535. Is to do something like that.

  536. One of them elders in that church should have stood

  537. up and said, listen, I know you're first lady.

  538. You know we give our leadership benefits of it now.

  539. Doing not and sometimes we understand things happen and we're merciful,

  540. but listen, nobody accidentally put a sheer sleep hold, and

  541. two to five women didn't accidentally walk into church with

  542. plunging necklines. Somebody is cohercing and coaching them in the background,

  543. By pointed, somebody is molding the models for that church,

  544. or y'all getting it, That is going to be the

  545. new norm. That's gonna be what everybody sees when they

  546. go to church.

  547. Sisters, so and so, they.

  548. Ain't gonna be able to shout without being immodest. She's

  549. not gonna be able to obey God and get in

  550. the spirit without being immodest. For y'all getting what I'm saying,

  551. he is molding the martyrs, and he's changing the face

  552. of that church entire.

  553. What about you, Dad and Mom?

  554. Do you not realize Gods to pool them little children

  555. out for the next generation and set them forth as

  556. an example for.

  557. How we are to be in our generation.

  558. Even my little granddaughter Rebecca, Brother Samuel, sometimes you can

  559. put something on you and she tell her Daddy and Mamma, Nope, Dad,

  560. ain't hold ess.

  561. I gotta go change. And Brother Samuel and sister Megan,

  562. your children have good natures. It's interesting, every one of

  563. them have good nature. But you two.

  564. Can refine that, develop that grow it, shape it into

  565. something even fighter where you two could mess up and

  566. corrupt that good nature. Jesus felt like each onlooker needed

  567. to change and become like a child. They needed to

  568. be humble, teachable, trusting and loving.

  569. Or y'all with pastor.

  570. This is what I see in that child, Jesus would say, right,

  571. the child is humble, the child is.

  572. Teachable, the child is trusting, and the child is loving.

  573. Brother Jesse one day says to how and I'll be

  574. going and somebody else will be moaning. The models for

  575. Bethel Hones's church, my sons and their wives, my daughter

  576. and her husband. Their children will be set fourth an

  577. example to others. Right and brother Rokeb. I was so

  578. parding last night because God gave me confirmation. I've never

  579. ever heard Madison's scream. I've never heard of madison scream.

  580. I've never heard Madison cry. She's a sweet baby girl.

  581. All of y'all's kids are sweet children. We got good natures.

  582. Her brother Jesse.

  583. When they went to leave my place yesterday last night

  584. around ten olock, I heard a blood curdling scream.

  585. Coming out of their.

  586. Vehicle and sister whoop and I supposed that it would

  587. have been Maria that didn't want to leave pop up

  588. and Natalie that didn't want to.

  589. Leave me me.

  590. I supposed that it was my buddy Simon that likes

  591. to climb up in my lap but look at me

  592. and smile.

  593. I supposed it was one of them kids.

  594. And brother Samuel, after about five or seven minutes, you know,

  595. five to seven minutes in his vehicle, come over and

  596. tell me by and I said, who was that?

  597. He said it was Madison.

  598. I said, my sam I didn't know she had that

  599. in her Yeah, he said, well, for the most part.

  600. She doesn't. But you're right, it's in her.

  601. I said, well, Uncle Phillip's got about nine hogs over there.

  602. Seven of them were a ferrel, wild pigmots. Two of

  603. them are domesticated pink pigs. And I said, you get

  604. over there.

  605. And grab a hold of one of them. They go

  606. to squeal and scream and pitching a fit.

  607. And I said, that little baby that's four months old

  608. sound no different than one of them feral hawks. I'm

  609. talking about blood curdling the scream. I said, I didn't

  610. know that baby had those kind of lungs in her body.

  611. We are one movie.

  612. Away from our good natured child being a wild child.

  613. We are one bad example by a first lady or

  614. a sister or a mother of Israel walking.

  615. Into church to take a good child and make them

  616. a wild child. We are one moment.

  617. From that child having a good spirit to that child

  618. having a horrible spirit. We're one moment away from that

  619. child's visit being a pleasic visit.

  620. To it being an unpleasant visit.

  621. Brother Jesse, concerning this immodesty that is becoming prevalent in

  622. the Holiness movement, they sow to the wind, they're gonna

  623. reap the whirlwind. But I've come to the understanding that's.

  624. What they want.

  625. The heart of man is deceitle, above all things, desperately wicked.

  626. Who can know it? Some people beating themselves.

  627. Up black and blue because of that wicked heart, while

  628. other people try to chase and fulfill the dreams of

  629. that wicked heart.

  630. And I'm telling you thus, saith God. In that pastor's bosom,

  631. there is a wicked.

  632. Dream that he is waiting to be fulfilled. And God

  633. knows what's in this dad's heart. God knows what's in

  634. that man's heart. God knows what's in that baby's grandparent's heart.

  635. Talk to my sister Hall and I God knows what's

  636. in each person's heart.

  637. In this building today. I said, God knows what's in

  638. your heart.

  639. And God is pulling you out of this congregation or

  640. somebody that's listening and.

  641. Letting you know that you are solely responsible.

  642. You are so responsible for molding your model. A blind

  643. Canadian poet wrote these words, lover of children, walking in sunshine,

  644. laughing in the rain, Lover of children, make me young again,

  645. Climbing in the treetops, running down the shore, Lover of children,

  646. make me young once. More vigorous and daring, teachable in

  647. my old Lover of children, Make me like a child,

  648. trusting in your goodness, walking where you leave. Make me young, indeed,

  649. make me young enough to know that alone I dare

  650. not go through the darkness of the night. Make me

  651. young enough to see your love will never let me go.

  652. Make me open to surprise. Put wonder in my eyes.

  653. Make my vision clear and bright. Make one willing to

  654. be lad and to follow where you bid me to go,

  655. fearing not tomorrow, trusting you today, Lover of children, make

  656. me young, I pray.

  657. In that eighteenth chapter, Sister Woot, Jesus spoke to those

  658. that would be a bad example to little children.

  659. He said, if you calls one of these little children,

  660. brother Sam and sister Magan, may that get in your

  661. crawl that you get to the place you can't stand

  662. the thought of somebody planting a macket in that mind?

  663. Oh my, how that would preach the maggets of the mind.

  664. Because I'm convinced now that people know what they're doing

  665. when they walk in front of them little children. And

  666. I'm telling you this generation of holiness people, for some reason,

  667. they have a problem drawing a line into sand. They

  668. have a problem with separation, they have a problem with

  669. taking a stamp.

  670. I've mourned all day long.

  671. Yesterday until my physical heart ached. I told Sister Howise said,

  672. I never would have dreamed that there would have been

  673. a day that the preacher that just stands for what

  674. we've always stood for would be criticized, ridiculed, and mocked.

  675. My problem wasn't the fact of being persecuted, but I

  676. expect that persecution to come from the world.

  677. My problem is with the.

  678. Trickery and the betrayal of all of the things that

  679. we stood for all of these years.

  680. I told the how it was last night. What are

  681. we supposed to pretend like God didn't deal with.

  682. All of us thirty something years ago about immodesty?

  683. I was supposed to pretend in life that.

  684. Revival that trends planned us from a carni mine to

  685. a holy mind had.

  686. No significance in our spiritual journey. Are we supposed to

  687. pretend life that my meeting that brought about.

  688. Our conversion and our sanctification and our holding this baptism

  689. was an accidents?

  690. They come, I mean, that's what I'm trying to tell you,

  691. That they.

  692. Want us to act like our pastor means nothing. They

  693. want to act like whatever we've got we can just

  694. distart it as though it's a piece of trash. We

  695. can't throw away sell btram, we can't go away the

  696. teachers of yesteryear. We can't talk it out as that's

  697. a piece of trash. That's what my concern is about.

  698. How can they.

  699. Walk away from knowing the truth and doing the truth

  700. and supporting the.

  701. Truth and preaching the truth and act like it never happened.

  702. We're not talking about a great grandmother, right that's a

  703. nominal church or attends the first Bampus of Atlanta. Are

  704. y'all listening influencing her? But when a Holiness grandmother.

  705. That has stood up in a Holiness church is that?

  706. I thank God.

  707. I quote for the old timeway. I thank God for

  708. the narrow way. I thank God for the straight way.

  709. I thank God for the door. I thank God for

  710. him saving my soul. I thank God for him sanctifying me.

  711. I thank God he took a desire to be like

  712. the people in this world out of me.

  713. When they walk in that door, immodest, you need to

  714. see that it.

  715. Is a womp in wolf's clothing. They did not store

  716. in to Macy's.

  717. That gown did not fly off the shelf for the wrecks,

  718. It did not fly into their arms, and not land

  719. on that cannon. He did not put itself in that bag.

  720. He did not draw itself hold. He did not get

  721. put out of that bag. And Hongka in that closet.

  722. He did not chuck on that senior Persuadey's body.

  723. That Sunday morning. There it was dilically. I just don't

  724. want it in teaching them mad.

  725. The models. They want to change the face up of

  726. the church.

  727. And it has begune I'm telling about they hold in

  728. this church. We gotta keep on it made it up

  729. the models everyth this generation. Somebody that they head say

  730. that ain't a God.

  731. I said alone.

  732. It said alone that he sting the old.

  733. That's not ta tire. You learn about Cheery Howell wrong.

  734. But a year later God dam with her heart and

  735. she's never done it again. Oh my god, just a

  736. how they don't seem to be discerned at all about

  737. morning peparating the models, people conducting themselves who like this,

  738. dressing up like this, acting.

  739. Like this, Do you feel like Jesus would pull them

  740. out of a congregation and present into.

  741. That great call of witness and glory and say this

  742. was the model of a saint. In the year twenty

  743. twenty five, I think not.

  744. People are afraid other just he to say that's not

  745. of God.

  746. Just ten years ago, every preacher that called himself a

  747. whole of this, a Pentecostal preacher that is of the world,

  748. and that is a foul spirit manifested. In fact, only

  749. ten years ago, that preacher would have been totally altogether

  750. this fellowship. Because I know Church of God assembling God

  751. women and men that wouldn't do something like that, that

  752. are punching holes in their ears and wearing ear rings

  753. and wearing chains around their necks and their wrists and

  754. their ankles. I know Baptists women, they wouldn't even consider

  755. getting close to that area with a hemland My Baptist

  756. great grandmother never even put on a pair of pants

  757. as far as I know. I never saw her in

  758. an immod's blouse. In fact, as to how and I

  759. took care of her in her latter years, not too

  760. long before she died, And when I walked in the room,

  761. Brother Thomas Terre me not being the kind of person

  762. that a lot of these perverts apparently are, me being

  763. one that come in blessing and turning my head, my

  764. face turning red, not want to see great Grandma.

  765. In her nightgown.

  766. When I came in, she said, Honey, I don't close

  767. that door, because I just know one day I might

  768. have to scram charity in Jerry and become help me.

  769. I want you to hear me while I'm sleeping and

  770. you're sleeping. I'm so concerned that you won't hear me

  771. unless I leave this door open. My brother Roquet I

  772. knocked on that door and sister him and I gave

  773. her an opportunity.

  774. Hey, Grandma, I'm here and I'm having up.

  775. Feeble hands reaching down for a sheet, and i'd hear

  776. say these words, it's okay, dream Me come in now.

  777. And when I came in to kiss her good night,

  778. she pulled the sheet up to her chin, and I'd

  779. lean over and kissed her on the forehead and said,

  780. Grandma just wanted to see that you need something, And

  781. she said, no, Dream, I believe him.

  782. Okay.

  783. I said, I love you now, Honey, she said, I

  784. love you, And brother Jesse, she said.

  785. Can you give him a spit cup.

  786. I said, yeah, I hand her spit cup and my

  787. snuff dipping spitting Great Grandma looking up, she's in here,

  788. nineties there.

  789. Grandma loves you. You know you're special to me, don't you.

  790. I say, yes, ma'am.

  791. We say it together in unison because we have the

  792. same part of day, Brother Nathaniel, my snuff dipping and spitting.

  793. Grandmother didn't wanna be immodest married to a cigarette smoking

  794. Baptist preacher. And apparently Sister Meghan and Brother Samuel, your

  795. children are gonna have to be raised in a generation

  796. that they call themselves holding us. They called himself Pentecostal,

  797. but they think nothing of reshaping the models. I feel

  798. the witness of the Holy Ghost in this place. I

  799. love children. The Bible said, Lord, children are inheritance of

  800. the Lord, and the fruit of the womb.

  801. Is his reward.

  802. May I say, someone raised these children that the Lord

  803. Jesus used as examples.

  804. And as marvels.

  805. Their parents had a tremendous responsibilities given to them when

  806. those little ones were born. And Brother Samuel of Google

  807. search quickly RESI uh revealed the meaning of your daughter's name.

  808. A gift of God. Literally, y'all have been handed the molding.

  809. Clay and Brother the same as sister Megga.

  810. You two have a tremendous responsibility given to y'all when

  811. the Lord blessed you with this child, and we're fixing

  812. to do the parents vows with sister Howell. Sometimes more

  813. damage can be done in a moment of calling something

  814. something that's not somebody said, pastor, how did you get

  815. to where you're at today, where five sons and one

  816. daughter are saved, and where you have fifteen grandchildren that

  817. are well behaved? How did y'all get to where youre

  818. are today where there's no confusion. It's not that the

  819. devil didn't try to get into a big family. It's

  820. not the devil didn't try to make my children people

  821. who dressed him modestly. It's not that the devil didn't

  822. try to taint our testimony. It's not that the devil

  823. didn't try to pollute the parents. How did we get

  824. to where we are today? I'll tell you how well

  825. we would visit places, and I knew people had been

  826. bad influences and had been irresponsible.

  827. Brother would and they had attempted.

  828. By their actions and their dress and their worship to

  829. reshape my kids.

  830. When I got in the car, I dared to do

  831. what this generation will not do, and I said these words,

  832. they are non saved.

  833. Can't meet and speaker or whomever if their standard was

  834. not right and their spirit was off al little bit,

  835. and they weren't concerned about virtue of.

  836. Innocence and modesty altogether.

  837. And you could sense that there was just a bend

  838. towards something unrighteous and impure.

  839. Jesse when you had asked me what about this one.

  840. I spoke words that I dare say ninety nine point

  841. five percent of people that they will not speak, and

  842. that has been to the saving of my house.

  843. They are not saved. And this is what I to

  844. old sister Howell yesterday.

  845. And I'm not wanting to talk to her about my burden,

  846. but Sister Hannah, I said, this is how they've all

  847. ended up in the same kettle. Nobody whatsoever wants to

  848. say this is the model. Jesus wasn't afraid Brother Thomasteric

  849. to pull one out and say this is the model

  850. and all of that. Ain't you become as this child,

  851. You become as this little well behaved teachable humble, sweet

  852. natured child. And brother Jesse, they were many times I'd say, Jesse,

  853. don't look at that young preacher, look at brother don

  854. rich But now there's a melting pot of different ideologies

  855. and standards.

  856. How can that be.

  857. We're not talking about people that are coming from all

  858. different walks of life. And Brother Gable, that's the mind

  859. game they played with their simpleton parishioners. We all were

  860. led into this. We were all brought into this. We

  861. were all at different stages. We were all in different

  862. stages of development, spiritual maturity.

  863. We were all brought into this.

  864. But if you step back and think about what they're saying,

  865. Brother Richard Jacob, their sacred third generation holding us, that's

  866. a lie. None of them they stole my testimony. A

  867. lot of them were raised in it, We were coming

  868. to it. The truth is some of them were walking

  869. away from it. Big difference. But all I have for

  870. your brother Sam and Sister Magan, and I feel it's

  871. a burden given to me by God. Mold little Madison,

  872. which y'all bring her up here at this time and

  873. face the congregation. Thank you, Brother Nathan and Sister Rebecca.

  874. If you will let them look at these little children

  875. that have sweet nature. You know what will change that

  876. nature faster than anything strong drink? Do you know what

  877. will change the nature of these sweetness of the little children?

  878. Quicker about anything?

  879. Drugs?

  880. You know what it'll take these little girls from looking

  881. like holiness girls to women of this world. Just one

  882. bad example, Mama, the grandparents, or this church or any

  883. other church. Okay, Brother Nathaniel, I don't wish this upon anybody,

  884. but today the Howell family is destroyed. Is today one

  885. set of in laws, whether Howl or something else, decides

  886. to walk a different way and have attainted testimony. And

  887. when one of these Howl young men and that Edward's

  888. girl says we're all the same, right, that will be

  889. the dawnfall of the unity of the Howell family.

  890. I feel this in my soul.

  891. If it's Tracy that doesn't, or if it's Charity, y'all

  892. remember this. There could be a day that I'm dead

  893. and gone and you had to use your mama as

  894. an illustration. My mama knew better than that. And she's

  895. your grandma. She lives ten miles from here, she ain't

  896. here this morning, but she's going to help. Sometimes it

  897. hurts to say things that you don't wanna say. Could

  898. be one day you're preaching and say, Sister Tracy said,

  899. under our pastor Jeremy how she knows better, she's wrong

  900. and she's heading to a doubles hill. Guys, when you

  901. start drawing lines in the sand like that, they don't

  902. want to go have Sonny's barbecue with you anymore.

  903. It literally is the in laws and the outlaws at

  904. that point, not because.

  905. We want to be at odds or in adversity. David said,

  906. I'm for peace, but when I speak, they are for war.

  907. And I'm gonna tell you you start plunging that vneck

  908. blouse down into the no nozone. It means war. It

  909. means war. For Madison, it means war. For Mica soul.

  910. It means war.

  911. And I told Sister Howell yesterday, I said, I'm more

  912. to turn and ever before to stand for what's right.

  913. And I want to serve you.

  914. Notice every one of you that have fled to the

  915. Bethel hole in this church, not being cursed, not being

  916. a coach, but because.

  917. You were sick of compromise. It's time you wet your

  918. finger and draw a light in the sand and say,

  919. I ain't got nothing else to go back to.

  920. That's the reason why you came here, because they had

  921. a spirit of the line in the place. So you said,

  922. if I build again the things I want's destroyed, I

  923. make myself a transgressor.

  924. And that's what I'm trying to tell each person in

  925. this building today. Do you have it within you to

  926. say what's in for all?

  927. They practicimate on God, they compromise depending on swingest support

  928. of the left.

  929. It's not swung up, it's hinging. It's access.

  930. Do you have one?

  931. It takes like brother Ga and row to I trying

  932. to go back. I trying to give him to bed

  933. for the doctor. But it wasn't the same. That's how

  934. I was raised.

  935. What if the chip feeling your lot? What if your

  936. parents are we're down here? What if you're family, you're

  937. down here?

  938. Why if they.

  939. Weren't Quint saying his people what you didn't steal? Take us?

  940. Stay?

  941. Now?

  942. What you still say had had to deal?

  943. They sage. I'm talking all of it.

  944. I remember that day Sister Howell said, I get it now,

  945. I understand it.

  946. Now they're going in a different direction.

  947. But if brother Samuel's at work and the mama acts

  948. totally different concerning things of standards of holiness when he's

  949. at work. This she does when he's at home or

  950. when he's preaching them, kids will be destroyed. It's the

  951. same thing with Sister Howell that she had and the

  952. fool he supported me and every time I took a.

  953. Stand at the house. Now, listen, brother so and so,

  954. he's a good man. I know your dad is zealous.

  955. Here's what they like to say.

  956. Are y'all ready we're still holding us? The Pentecostal preachers,

  957. Blessed God, they've been telling lies on us. Blessed God,

  958. we believe in on time holding us, Praise the Lord.

  959. I'm tired of people lying on me, going that guy.

  960. I'll get up in my pul pit tonight and I'll

  961. review them. For one of them, I'll tell them they're liars.

  962. I'll tell them they're lying on me. And then fruit

  963. is fruit.

  964. Right, facts are fact. The truth is known by the

  965. fruit and the facts. And you look out there of

  966. the congregation. Hey, their wife and husband swapping people on

  967. the platform that got a noose thousand and it's still

  968. attending the same church. And people that used to wear

  969. things one way, now wearing them a different way. People

  970. that used to have a certain standard now got a

  971. different standard. I'm trying to tell you this is why

  972. i'm your cussler, and this is why you came here.

  973. Because I'm not a.

  974. Praid to say they're not going to heaven, and they're

  975. going to heaven.

  976. I'm not as well going back to the Church of God.

  977. I'm mightn't grow another at the end to the old

  978. now just sup up time behind. I might as not

  979. put the such leaves on again? Was it right or not?

  980. Is it right?

  981. Off? Not human?

  982. God can do such things as these, is right. That's

  983. what we're saying when we came out. I'm dealing with

  984. the mindset right now. Sometimes you don't have to verbalize

  985. it or speaking out like I'm doing right now, but

  986. you sure out to support the one that's willing to

  987. do it to keep you and your children from being confused.

  988. You should have sit persecute. I ain't the person that's

  989. willing to put that child on that bucket, but then

  990. to mold it and show it what's wrong, it's wrong

  991. and what's right as right.

  992. You might want to sit there and go to it.

  993. By ten dollars of testimony service. That's never standing up

  994. and saying anything about holding us f anw You might

  995. don't want to have to stand up testifying I say

  996. God save my soul. You might know what I don't

  997. want to be in example for your children to stand

  998. up to say my family's doing.

  999. A different way, but no, this is the wrong way.

  1000. When I think a.

  1001. Lot of y I'm not gonna God have I'm not

  1002. being us. They're not saying rog I'm not on down

  1003. to tell them, not failing that boll stand up my

  1004. test up.

  1005. Stand now, I here appeal save to say God save

  1006. my soul. If you know what such a mother's gonna

  1007. do if you don't tell them, they're gonna sit down.

  1008. These hold is changing to come up back this church.

  1009. That's why they're in the secondre in now. Because they

  1010. lost their sister Williams. They lost their sister house because

  1011. a lady. Those that get loud, they say it because

  1012. the lady doesn't speaking on the church, because a lady,

  1013. because of test the time, the lady doesn't shout ho

  1014. ho hold hold about aloha hollo.

  1023. that again, you have never seen your grandkids again. I

  1031. at the dogs. I don't lost that the trash. I

  1032. don't lost periods, never have.

  1033. Not natured that way. My question is why are you

  1034. nature to wear such a thing in the house. I've

  1035. got it saying there's some of your sisters.

  1036. You better start coming on glued in these full fits,

  1037. on these platforms, in these pews, you better start coming

  1038. on glue. I'm telling you better start praising the Lord.

  1039. However you've been molded, you may get. You better start

  1040. coming on glued.

  1041. You better let that mold they've broken. You better come

  1042. up whole.

  1043. Hey, my mommy taught me how to sit in church.

  1044. Really now, from what I'm seeing, your mommy taught your granddaughter,

  1045. her granddaughter's, your daughter's how to put a skirt to

  1046. the knee and wear pants underneath them. That's what a

  1047. great job your mommy died. That's your mommy's attitude and

  1048. her action's got your mommy where she's at today. And

  1049. that's what I'm trying to tell every person in this building.

  1050. Your attitude and your actions are going to take you

  1051. and your children to where your mommy's at today.

  1052. Moding the mode.

  1053. Y'all know why Rebecca asks the way she does, because

  1054. Nathan you ask the way he does.

  1055. Hold on. They so profound, they're so wise. They know

  1056. how lady conducts herself in church. She never gets crazy.

  1057. For Jesus, she never stands up for next sister, whoop,

  1058. She never act meanhow she'd never get in.

  1059. Never get in. Hey, hey, wait a minute, but look

  1060. at what's going on. Look at what they're doing.

  1061. Hey.

  1062. I knew my wife's mother, and she was with her

  1063. too much. She was gonna shape your mama. I said it.

  1064. I could be dead and gold and that could.

  1065. Come a day.

  1066. It sis the charity.

  1067. It'll never happened. I don't believe, but but it's there.

  1068. There could come a day twenty years from now. What

  1069. one is?

  1070. How old boy says, we put in crying and literally

  1071. vomited and so tore a minute, said, my mama knew

  1072. Betty than to come in this church like that. I'm

  1073. gonna tell you it's gonna be known. What wasn't were

  1074. made of other road, Captain, when it comes right down

  1075. to it. That's why there's so much confusion in this

  1076. holiness movement.

  1077. That's why there's so much confusion.

  1078. Our hoes, this preacher, this preatures, whether this preature, this

  1079. preacher is brother and the Lord, this creature or this

  1080. belong this preature. I want to sawy to get along.

  1081. But you know what, we better settle on truth. We

  1082. better settle o holiness, thoughts and we better sett alone.

  1083. Come on, testify.

  1084. We better set a sanctification. We better settle one holiness.

  1085. We better set alone truth and righteousness. We better settle somewhere.

  1086. If we doubts, this things walk. If we don't, Yes,

  1087. Salas Tarmar.

  1088. We pray for them.

  1089. Yes, Salas Tarmar, we pray about the me in with

  1090. holy issues. Father, You and I've been talking about that.

  1091. That is right.

  1092. All of this is indicative on a holy shoe. If

  1093. you're lost for us, they re purchase down.

  1094. To their ut.

  1095. You're gonna know she got a whole Locke persues her.

  1096. They're that piece of qualified. You'll be lucky if your

  1097. keep her. I said, you'll be lucky. Yes, she can

  1098. you keep her because.

  1099. She was raised in the household. Oh holyness, pleasure.

  1100. Mother told her she wants to learn that d It

  1101. makes you sewing somebody else here?

  1102. That chuch what she's gone? Who s on the show?

  1103. That's where we're at, And sometimes I get the feeling

  1104. with some of the people here don't know how.

  1105. I ain't saying call anybody. I ain't saying send any text.

  1106. I ain't saying start family fuse and start family fights.

  1107. But I am saying you limit your contact.

  1108. I am saying you don't expose your family to the

  1109. walls of the devil. I am saying you don't expose

  1110. your children to the wolf pack. Hey, you keep running

  1111. your little lamb on the perimeter in the outside of

  1112. a wolf pack, They're gonna pick it off.

  1113. I said, today, are gonna pick your little lamb off.

  1114. Well, come on, now, this is why I'm minimizes the

  1115. outside influence on my family.

  1116. If they got inward struggles and hard issues.

  1117. That come out by wearing pants under their skirt, by

  1118. the guys drinking.

  1119. That comes a dad hour.

  1120. You may or may not have to tell them, But

  1121. there comes a day an hour when you tell Rebecca

  1122. they ain't right. When there comes a day an hour

  1123. when you say you ain't riding with them. It was

  1124. eighteen years later the Howl boys told me of a

  1125. dirty joke. An old elder in this area who looked

  1126. hold in us had been whispering to them, dearing my

  1127. entire ministry. This woman would come and go. She always left.

  1128. It seemed like when the Holy ghost was about to

  1129. expose her, she knew when to leave.

  1130. You come back.

  1131. Eighteen years later, me and my boys are sitting outside

  1132. and they said, well, Dad, I guess now's a good

  1133. a time as any to tell you. We was little

  1134. tiny kids in the church and said at the church

  1135. we go outside and be told dirty jokes.

  1136. I said, why didn't you gonna tell me?

  1137. Then?

  1138. I sure could have used it when the devil was

  1139. telling me you shouldn't have preached like that. They want

  1140. nobody here guilty of that.

  1141. It'd have been nice if I'd had the knowledge that

  1142. that little old lady who'd been telling you all dirty jokes.

  1143. I feel the Holy Gods in this place. I'm not

  1144. trying to be long winded. I'm trying to break them

  1145. old molding, the models, because the truth is right now.

  1146. Natalie will ask the question, why is Uncle George and

  1147. his wife down here in Florida?

  1148. Why are they doing this?

  1149. Why is Uncle George and Aunt Connie doing this? Will

  1150. give her about living years and she'll say, I want

  1151. to do that. And when they turned thirteen, then they

  1152. say I'm gonna do that. Sister Whoop's crawling, crying, her

  1153. eyes out, falling, and he's falled there. It's interested that

  1154. she still looks the same now as she did when

  1155. I first saw her approaches while we were a street preacher.

  1156. Can the same be said about these.

  1157. People are talking to this point, I'm not attacking any individual.

  1158. Because I have mourning. I have cried over individuals. I

  1159. have mourning.

  1160. I have cried over individuals that spirits have manipulated and

  1161. missed up.

  1162. But I'm telling you, folks, something is that really the

  1163. direction we want to go in. Could you imagine if

  1164. Jeremy Howell.

  1165. Tells Charity go ahead and take the skirt to above,

  1166. the cat will have to put you some pants on

  1167. under it. All of you that want to give everybody

  1168. the benefit of the doubt, I don't know that there's

  1169. anybody here, all of you that want a fellowship, keep

  1170. in touch with all your former churches, and everybody's saved.

  1171. I just found a different way. What would you think

  1172. of me?

  1173. Because I'm about to tell you is going to happen.

  1174. I tell her to put these little tights on under

  1175. her skirt and put her skirt up to her knee,

  1176. and she starts doing her fingernails and cutting little things here.

  1177. And we're gonna expect you to say amen the same

  1178. way you say amen.

  1179. And them hypocrites up the way.

  1180. We're gonna expect you to say glory to God the

  1181. same way you say glory to God, and they get a.

  1182. Prince say I do believe in holdiness.

  1183. I ain't gonna expect you walk out his church and say,

  1184. oh my God, my pastor's backsliding. I don't expect you

  1185. to say, you know what, he's a Great Man of God,

  1186. by George, don't you pull out a double standing on

  1187. me and Thomas Stare at if we have a meeting

  1188. tonight and at we say we're taking our wives into

  1189. a looser direction, don't y'all have a behind the closed

  1190. door meeting and try to crucify me and Thomas Stare.

  1191. I'm being sarcastic of course with us. Stare that smart

  1192. elk I could hear to talk all over Florida, y'all

  1193. here Brother Howell his church here has sister Kathy's sister

  1194. Charity are addressing. Now y'all hear about hand and faith.

  1195. My question is that what y'all want us to do?

  1196. Y'all want us to fall into that, because every time

  1197. we hear you've ran off here and there and you're

  1198. saying hey, brother, hey, says thir.

  1199. That's a slap in my face. Every time you do that,

  1200. you swap the daylight side of me. Every time you

  1201. do that, you tell me you fled to this church.

  1202. Because you didn't fit in, because you want to live

  1203. holdliness and you want to live the standard, and you

  1204. came to a place where a man supports the standard

  1205. and where a man.

  1206. Preaches at it. But then you get on the poll

  1207. where somebody that's got that knee lake start life and

  1208. as him to pray with you.

  1209. That is a slap A hold myself out stuff, adeezing me,

  1210. stuff adeezing me. I would like delawship too. I would

  1211. like to sell my cane a pew two. I would

  1212. like to say amen to a guy that the somewhat

  1213. preach too. I would like to go to a pastor ten.

  1214. Years ago two?

  1215. But how is that pastor's wife living, how's that family living?

  1216. It swapes me to my knees. At the time, I hear.

  1217. Brother, so and so, that's not what your self when

  1218. you got here. When you got here you say, are

  1219. a hippophet. You're talking about all the off that hasn't slumping.

  1220. You're talking about all their nutury on the pocaly You're

  1221. talking about all the hypocrisy.

  1222. You're talking about all the joy. You talking about a

  1223. cross millage. He's still off holding us. He's still one

  1224. man that can stand.

  1225. It's all I can be to come here and preach holiness.

  1226. When I've heard you've been out of the Bible. Up

  1227. the road, hey brother, her sister, her.

  1228. Brother, her sister. I thought it was canture. I thought

  1229. it was contagious. I thought it was deadly.

  1230. I thought there was a reason why you.

  1231. Just had to be here.

  1232. Because with your half brother and sister shugned me up

  1233. to their inches Sabia for their hostages, sign up for

  1234. their play check.

  1235. Then you want to drop pad, I'll take their house

  1236. avail a k a church.

  1237. H that's something that some people would like to defile,

  1238. and some people would like to hold a treasure, and

  1239. some people would not want to commit to the standard

  1240. that you'll hold or to the lifestyle y'all keep.

  1241. But it's a beautiful thing.

  1242. You'll have a beautiful family, and don't ever be determined, deterred,

  1243. be determined.

  1244. Any Let's let's stay in church a prison. Ask you

  1245. to pray with us, with us family. But Jesse, if

  1246. you have to cancel.

  1247. Vers and home service today, I mean sometimes these things happen, or.

  1248. Go in there and get know just for a minute

  1249. or whatever.

  1250. I hope and I pray and I trust that we

  1251. will all until Jesus comes believe the Bible is right

  1252. and that it is the textbook for all Christians. But

  1253. unfortunately not every everybody is going to keep the sayings

  1254. of this book. But I'm gonna tell you to his parents,

  1255. what's you'll hold in your hands is priceless. And here's

  1256. where I give you the good news. I honestly believe

  1257. that you two have all the children. I honestly believe

  1258. they're well behaved. And I tell Mimi all the time,

  1259. I say, Began is doing a great job raising our kids.

  1260. So I believe in you, Samuel, and I believe in Mabel,

  1261. and I believe you're doing a great job as well.

  1262. By the saying mother, she spends the better part of

  1263. the day with these kids. But the devil must to

  1264. mess up what you're holding, what you're making. And y'all

  1265. just know this that there's about eighty people here this morning,

  1266. and believe this is a beautiful thing. And this is

  1267. the most unusual, out of the ordinary baby day medication

  1268. I've ever done it. But I'm trying to tell y'all something.

  1269. The devil wants to mess.

  1270. Up what you're moving. And I don't know how he

  1271. would do that. I don't know who he would use,

  1272. but I.
