Do you think a woman laying in her casket will want to know whether she had her hair waterdoed, or whatever you want to call it?

"Now, if people could only wake up for a few moments and realize what the great thing is. It's pride that does that. It's people who--who wants to go like the rest of the world. You can't do that. You're not of the world. Do you think a woman laying in her casket will want to know whether she had her hair waterdoed, or whatever you want to call it? You think she would pay attention to how she was dressed if she was laying in a casket, or some man? They wouldn't do it.That's the reason today there's so much stuff that we have to copy after the neighbors, or some Hollywood star, or some fashion, or something like that, is because that we haven't died yet to Christ and His Word. It's what's the matter with the churches. We're in darkness, groping in darkness. Said, "There would be gross darkness upon the people."  WMB ~ Shalom 64-0119 

 "What choice are you making tonight, here in Hollywood, and Los Angeles, and the fashion place of the world, where the fine spires and the steeples and everything else? What choice are you making? Let me tell you, brother, sister, find that Holy Spirit that takes control in the heart and those pulsations begin to come that God is God, and the things of the world will perish. Then you walk after the things you don't see. You'll become crazy to the people of the world. They'll say, "Well, that woman's lost her mind. That man's gone off at the deep end. Why, he says that he's healed of cancer. Why, he's healed of his blindness. He's healed of this, that, or the other." Or "He says that he's received the Holy Spirit, that's changed him. Why, he don't even associate in the pool room no more. We don't find him at the card table. This woman don't play the cards no more. She quit wearing vulgar clothes. She become a new person; there's something wrong with her." Sure. Something happened to her. The old carnal mind died, and the mind of Christ took the place in the woman's heart. And now she's walking, looking for a city where she'll be popular, where she'll ride on the chariots with the sons and daughters of God, where she'll be a--a guest of the Lord Jesus forever. She's looking for a city whose Builder and Maker is God. She cares not about the pollution of the world. See? she's been enthroned by something else. God has come into her heart and it just blackened out the fashions of the world. That's first when He takes control". WMB ~Looking at the unseen 59-0410 

 "Just really mean it now, just genuinely mean it. This closing hour now, we got five minutes till closing time, till nine-thirty. Let's just set still just a moment, inside and out. Let's think of this sincerely. It's not... It does bring emotions, certainly. But let's not think of emotion right now. Let's think of the sincerity of what we're doing, "By faith I lay my hands over on my Sacrifice, Jesus Christ. I want to be identified in His death. I'm through with the world. I'm through with Hollywood. I'm through with fashions."The women, "I'm through cutting my hair. I'm through wearing immoral clothes. I'm through wearing makeup. I'm through playing cards. I'm--I'm through with the trash of the world."
You men likewise, "I'm through with drinking. I'm through with smoking. I'm through with lying. I'm through with jokes. I'm through--through with jesting. I'm through with all these idle words that the Bible said we'll give an account for."

"I want the Seal. I want the Token in my life. I'm laying my hands by faith right now upon my Sacrifice, Jesus Christ. I'm identifying myself as a dead man," or a dead woman, boy or girl. "I die now, with Him, because He died that I can live. And I'm accepting my Life in Him. And, O Lord, make it known to me tonight, that Eternal Life now dwells within me." Think those thoughts. Believe those things". WMB ~ The Token  63-1128E
