Day 264 The Family Altar September 21 Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you. Greet one another with an holy kiss. (2 Corinthians 13:11-12) A guy asked me not long ago, said, Brother Branham, why, they greeted one another with a holy kiss. They kissed on the back of the neck, fell upon their neck, and kissed them on the back of the neck. That was before handshake come in. Its a greeting. Thats the way it is. They didnt shake one anothers hands; they put their arms around one another; they kissed one another on the back of the neck, not on the lips, in the face. That starts a perversion. Stay away from it. Dont never do that. Now-a-days, we shake hands with one another. If you got your arm around your brother, and kiss him on the neck, or he kisses you on the neck, thats all right. But dont you kiss that woman, and dont you let that woman kiss you. See? Thats right. You take her by the hand, say, Wait a minute, Sister, just a minute here see, lets get this straight! And so, now you do that. Now, what did I tell you awhile ago when I first started? When you see a car coming down the road ninety miles an hour, get out of its way. Thats right. When you see the first twist in anything like that, get away from it; stay away from it. And thats the ground you should not be on. Satan will present something to you thatll wreck your soul and send you to hell. Stay away from it. Shun the very appearance of evil. Thats right. Be a man; be a woman, Im going to take up for the women a minute. Thats unusual, isnt it? But they say, Oh, the woman caused it. Oh, it was the womans fault. If she hadnt got out of her place, well, the man wouldnt got out of his. Thats true. Well say thats right. She gets out of her place. A man cant be bad less theres a bad woman; but remember there cant be a bad woman without being a bad man. Thats right. And you who claim to be a son of God, where is your principles? Arent you a son of God? Arent you the one thats a higher, stronger vessel? As the Bible says shes weaker, then if shes weaker, then show yourself a man of God. Tell her, say, Sister, youre in the wrong. Thats right. Ive done it, and other Christians has done it. And youll always do it as long as youre a Christian, but show yourself. Youre a son of God. You have more power over yourself than the woman does. If she is weaker, recognize her to be weaker. Understand her mistakes, and things like that, and try to correct her. Say, Sister, we are Christians; shouldnt do that. See? Be a real man; be a son of God, and watch the women. And theres where the great fall begin at the beginning. It was Satan with Eve. Thats what brought the whole downfall of the human race is through that. And if youre a son of God, be strong; be a real man. If youre not that way, stay at the altar till you become that. And shun the very appearance of evil Daily Reading: 1 Samuel 9, Psalm 106:1-22, Ezekiel 44:15.., 2 Corinthians 13
