centuries that the Bible forbids the public ministry of qualified In Pa. 68. the revised version reads The Lord giveth the and the women that publish the tidings are a great Many of us cannot have

thought they were But what did Peter say He said it was not It was what the prophet Joel foretold when he shall come to pass in the last saith I will pour out of my spirit upon all even upon animals

Acts 21, 9, where we read that the four daughters of Philip the evangelist Does Pan I regard this disapprovingly f Instead of he stayed days at the place where these virgins were prophesying Go on a little further to Paul's in which some are inclined to imagine that Paul forbids the ministry of No such it is the very In the church at Corinth there had been some and the apostle desires to set them The eleventh chapter of first is fully taken up regulations at the Lord's Right in the middle of what do we find That he tells the women they are not to prophesy and pray in pub he tells them how they are to do it. man praying or prophesying having his head covered his but every woman that prophesieth or prayeth with her head her Why is this mentioned in the if woman is not allowed to preach or pray In public f The apostle simply regulates the and tells them how they are to db If a woman wanted to pray or preach to her own family in her own as every one ought it matters nothing bow she wais at as I have and observed as fitting in the But if one preach or pray in public she mus have her head covered as a mark o subjection to her Look now at the two passages in Paul epistles that are generally supposed to go against the practice of women's prophesying He has told them how they are to pray or when at the Lord's a few further on j In 1 14, unto to Consider this in its more literal

Take one more Wo have referred to in where there is the promise that the sons and daughters alike should prophesy when the Holy Ghost should fall upon What ia prophesying Is it for the unconverted or for the He that prophesieth onto men to edification and exhortation and 14,3. God puts the Ghost into a woman for to edify the Let ug be very careful hat we do not hinder that There are thirty passages of at on this and they are all on the same There are only two that are apparently against it. One of and the most refers to foolish er needless the public Nowhere is a woman forbidden to pray or but it is assumed that she will pray and preach both the and at the Lord's Do we find any examples of women prophesying in the We have the case of of it had been the custom there thousands of Then how could many of them be prophets or preachers Why in some other countries in the old world women were harnessed like a horse and hitched up by the side of a mule or an and she pulled her part while the man walked along behind and drove There the wo men did all the hardest and they had so use to it that they could shoulder a two bushel sack of grain and walk off with it with more ease than our American men can In some of the countries men catch and skin animals and and the women then had to ake the skins and chew them all over until they soft and the blood sucked out and the fat and the filth scraped off with their and then make them up and do other kinds of hard work which men considered beneath their They were also bought and sold the same as This had been practiced thousands of Then how could many of them preach f The Bible shows us much on this sub as to the way women have been regarded as a sort of When the servants of David came to The Sunday Sun is the Sunday to the 6c. a By f 2 a Address THE ' 34, he Ihe women keep al Y.

The above and many other passages In the Bible show that women were bargained or traded away like Then how o o n 1 d they be preachers or prophets f Jacob wanted a young girl named and her father bargained her to Jacob for seven years work which Jacob was to He paid for her in but when the marriage came off in the evening the room was dark and the father slipped his other in with and Jacob never knew the difference until Then he found that the sore-eyed one had been put onto and that he did not get the one he bargained Then he was The father fixed up a plan to gel seven more years work out of Jacob for the other So Jacob got both Each girl was a female It was a mixed up and a great number of children ware born from the wives and the two servant and Jacob was the father pf all the See and 30th chapters of The servant girls had nothing to say about it They simply did as they I this to show that women in itU and at all times have bad scarcely any liberties or rights to control even their own Solomon loved many strange He bad seven hundred wives and three hundred Kings 3. My My I The women of the United States do not realize how great the blessings are which they enjoy If they do not see fit to marry a man they are not compelled to do so. No father or other main can or them They are given far more privileges in society than men are If a room men must stand up and women take the Men bow and tip their hats to women in the most gracious A of favors on these lines are given to and I am writing this to make women see the terrible degradation from which they have been by this great and godly appointed tbe United States of and that good sense demands of them that they abandon their foolish vanity and turn their minds towards higher and better things than and which is being carried by them beyond all The fact that I am writing against these things in women must not be construed to mean that I am trying to hold women down to their old slavery The Lord shall create a new thing in a woman shall compass a 31, 22. When you under stand bow women have been regarded ever since the world then it is clear to you why the above prophecy was Bat women are not to gain their liberties in the way they are now Indeed their present manner works against as there are thousands of men who would like to give to women their political but the proud and actions and desire of females to run after the foolish and flashy things of life causes men to be slow to give to them too much as seem not to be at It makes them have a greater desire to attract still further attention and beat other the for women to do at this time is to lay aside and totally abandon their present foolish ideas about dress aad and show and tarn their attention to wards the good and holy things of and as they become with spiritual power they will forget all about and have no desire whatever for the foolish ways of Then men woald have confidence in the stability of who would then wield a powerful over the as the real genuine spirit minded woman is a force to shape the of Individ and of bat she loses power and solid respect in the eyes of thinking men when she thinks of and works at and carling irons and powder It shows her to be fickle and and this checks men from giving to her too much There the present foolish and gaudy way of women is working against them in their efforts to gain political and other After all this jewelry is bung on to them they then seek to get the brightest colored ribbons and as snob things attract their eyes Of all this jewelry and rings rubbing together when the person walks or moves will make a aort of jingling Ton must remember this when to reading the as it speaks plainly about the flashy as Because the of zion are and walk with forth necks and wanton walking and mincing as they and making a tinkling with their therefore the Lord will take away the bravery of their tinkling ornaments about their and their round and the bracelets and the bonnets and the or of the and the head and the earrings and Ihe nose jewelry and the rings and changeable suits of and the fine and the hoods and It shall come to pass that instead of sweet smell there shall be Wo snto the wicked for it shall be ill with 3,16,18-22, The above prophecy is plain and to the and needs no I will just say that woman's Bonable desire jewelry and dress and other haughty ways have been watched and commented by all the spiritually parsons who have lived the and I will go farther and say that the more ignorant a woman ia the more jewelry she and the brighter colored ribbons and variety of them she must have tied on to her all at the same You will try to contradict this statement by bringing up Mrs. General So or her Boyal So-and-So or some other foolish women who have a good school and vet load themselves down with jewelry and other But let me tell yon that they are ignorant and beastly jost is not wisdom by Genuine wisdom is not gained At I stand by my statement positively and firmly that whosoever jewelry and foolish trappings on her or his such persons are ignorant and brainless and have not grown oat of the beastly and heathen and as a consequence they pattern after the heathen who wear the rings on their legs and in their &c. Any one has studied the history of the haman laice and knows the customs of foreign countries can see plainly where the women of this get their ec t ideas and to bane onto their and I say to them that it works against and belittles and leaves the impression that the weak traits of the heathen are jet holding our and that their m inds are on the flighty things of and I now show by the Bible what the consequence with such shall They worship the works of their own that which their own fingers have The lofty looks of a man shall be humbled and the of man shall be bowed for the day of the Lord shall be upon every one that is proud and for he shall be brought In that day man shall cast his idols of silver and gold which they made to He shall cast them to the moles and to the bats and go into the clefts of the rocks for fear of the Lord when he ariseth to shake terribly the 2. This great shaking of the Lord ia already and will run into tribulation and sorrow within twenty as written in my lectures on Christ's Kingdom in and it is the proper for women and men to drop and totally abandon the present foolish and insane ways of society which are positively destructive in every People are complaining of n pinched financial at the same time they are to make They growl aad blame but never ing in their own homes to find a part of the As the amount of money grows less the styles grow and call for more Pride and are binding the world down with and only a little thought is required to make a person see that it is an impossibility for things to go on long this The snake is biting to and the Bible prophecies set up sign boards to inform us just how far along we are towards the end of these foolish The signs are bot I shall not go over them But we know we have arrived at the pillow What kind of a sign is that 7 yoa will the prophecies talk about women sewing lows in the They arenot called big as they are away beyond anything like a They have grown up into sach immense size as to look like stuffed with and they are still so that it is not impossible for them to take on the form and proportions of a although the prophecies speak of mattresses pillows Thus saith the Lord God Woe unto the women that sew pillows to all am against your I will tear them from your With lies ye have strengthened the hands of the wicked that he should not return his wicked ye shall see no more 18,231. It is a that as a are proud and constantly occupied with thoughts about and vain as women are capable of doing great good in the world when they turn their minds in that direction and forget the foolish side of No human law can add anything to the law of The wrong side of the question always tries to make up by the use of what it lacka m as in case of our and their families drawing blood or Human law cannot strengthen the moral and religions safeguards which protect These can be strengthened only by that the God made men and women different from one he gave to each an Bnt there is a power working in the world that tries to force men to act as though they were a power that sets fashions and prescribes customs for men and women in and a power that haa a few worldly moulds in which it woald have all thought and action All this is directly contrary to the plan of the the fact that to men the secrets pf tha enable the of I have this
