RECEIVING JESUS IS LIKE SEXUJESUS IS LIKE IF IN LOVE-MAKING A L GOING ALL T E WAY! You can LY H WE'D GET T THE LAST STEP AND YOU'D O even use that i n w i t n e s s i n g with a REFUSE TO F C ME. you'd refuse t o U K guy that i s r e j e c t i n g .

"JESUS & SEX!"MO & Maria. Son of God, so what?" But i l l u s trate i t in sexual terms in what they understand today! I t i s a s e x ual age, right? So i t ' s l i k e showing them i t ' s l i k e going a l l the way with sex except the l a s t s t e p , and therefore not to be actually united in rejecting that s t e p . 4 . ANYBODY W U D HAVE T BE INOL O SANE! (Maria: He s a i d , "Well, you know, t h i s has been almost t h e g r e a t e s t . t e m p t a t i o n o f my l i f e f o r me!"But how can I b e l i e v e him?) Well, I believe i t i s , I believe i t i s because i t i s us_. W y else would h G d use us of all people? o 5. WHAT MORE IMPORTANT PEOPLE COULD GOD TAKE OUT OF THE WHOLE WORLD TO TEST HIS FAITH AND HIS LOVE AND USE HIM AS AN EXAMPLE, A GUINEA P I G , TO SHOW HOW HARD THE HEART OF THE SINNER I S ! I ' v e e v e n used that verse with himI r e phrased i t because I don't want to call him wicked because he doesn't think he i s wicked. But G d said o in Isaiah, 6. "LET M R Y BE S O N T THE EC H W O WICKED AND YET H WILL NOT LEARN E RIGHTEOUSNESS!" ( I s a . 2 6 : 1 0 . ) Even i f you show mercy t o t h e wicked, which God i s doing every day w i t h the r a i n and t h e sunshine and l i f e and p h y s i c a l l o v e and e v e r y t h i n g e l s e He i s showing mercy t o the wicked, and y e t they w i l l n o t l e a r n r i g h t e o u s n e s s , they w i l l n o t thank God! 7. THE W O E THING IS THAT BUSIH L NESS OF PRIDE! (Maria: He was a l ready up even when we were i n the l i v i n g room, s o we went t o t h e b e d room.) And you went t o bed t o g e t h e r ? (Maria: Y e s , and he g o t u n d r e s s e d . ) Were you a l r e a d y undressed? (Maria: I g o t u n d r e s s e d t o o , and s o he l a i d a c r o s s t h e bed and p r e t t y soon I s t a r t e d l o v i n g him.) S t a r t e d c a r e s s i n g him o r what? (Maria: No, I j u s t l a i d down and I s o r t o f worked down at the end of the bed near him on the f l o o r and then I got up a l i t t l e and got on the b e d . )

8. DID Y U G T B T E N HIS KNEES? O E EWE (Maria: Yes, and so t h e n . . . ) That's the b e s t p o s i t i o n f o r s u c k i n g . (Maria: Yes, and he did enjoy i t . Then f i n a l l y he s a i d , when I s t i l l had him i n m mouth, he s a i d , "I'm y about ready t o come, maybe we b e t t e r do i t by hand." And I s a i d , " I t ' s only p r o t e i n , vitamins and s a l t , Brian! I t won't hurt me a b i t , i t ' s n o u r i s h i n g ! " I p r o t e s t e d a couple of t i m e s , but s t i l l he s a i d , "No!") 9. SO H WOULDN'T EVEN LET Y U E O SUCK HIM OFF BECAUSE THAT IS A F R OM OF UNION,TOO, SEE? That's a form of t o t a l union i f you suck him and you swallow i t , t h a t ' s j u s t l i k e a form of union. (Maria: He could havehe s a i d he was r e a l c l o s e . ) S e e , i n other words, that s t i l l i n a s e n s e i s a form o f u n i t y , too c l o s e t o the r e a l t h i n g f o r him t o accept i t ! I s n ' t that amazing, he wouldn't even l e t you suck him o f f , how about t h a t ! What did he do then, j u s t take i t out and jack i t o f f ? (Maria: Yes, and I helped him.) 10. T E W A ? (Maria: And then HN H T I j u s t l a i d down with him b e s i d e him and t h a t ' s when I s t a r t e d asking him t h o s e q u e s t i o n s . ) You s e e , the semen, the f l u i d from the p e n i s , a c t u a l l y becomes part o f your f l e s h when you suck a l l the way, and t h a t i s almost the most marvellous f e e l ing of a l l ! It i s just t e r r i f i c ! (Maria: H said he enjoyed i t , but e he didn't say he enjoyed i t any more than any other, than anything else. 11. SO THEN I L Y D W WITH HIM A O N AND I JUST STARTED TALKING WITH HIM.) You o n l y went t h a t one time? (Maria: Y e s , I j u s t d i d n ' t f e e l . . . ) I d o n ' t blame y o u ! He had h i s chance! (Maria: Because I t h o u g h t , w e l l , I ' l l l i e down b e s i d e him and ask him some q u e s t i o n s and I ' l l s e e i f he would be w i l l i n g . I ' l l t r y one l a s t t i m e . S o , you know, I s t a r t e d s a y i n g I wish he w o u l d . . . ) 1 2 . THAT'S W E YOU SOCKED IT T HN O HIM! (Maria: Y e s , I asked him a l l

'JESUS fc SEX!"MO & Maria. t h o s e questions and r e a l l y brought him t o make a d e c i s i o n , t o t e l l me what he thought.) A t o t a l d e c i s i o n and rejection!"Will you or won't you!" (Maria: I asked him i f he loved me or i f he loved Helen more, or would he do i t f o r me i f i t was my dying request, and he s t i l l wouldn't answer.) I f I were dead, would he do i t . (Maria: Y e s , I asked him i f h e ' d do i t i f you weren't there or i f t h i s i s the l a s t time he would s e e u s . ) I s n ' t that something? 13. IT'S SO LIKE T E STUBBORN H WILFUL SINNER, ^REJECTING T T E O H LAST DITCH, TO HIS DYING DAY! I s n ' t that amazing? I s n ' t that the a b s o l ute epitome o f s e l f - r i g h t e o u s n e s s ! I don't think I have e v e r met a man so stubbornly s e l f - r i g h t e o u s , s o stubborn and so s e l f - r i g h t e o u s , with as l i t t l e excuse for being so! N wonder! God, i t makes m so o e angry! I mean w have sacrificed e so much to give him everything and asked nothing in return! 14. W HAVE DONE A LL THE GIVING, E J. EVERYTHING. AND YET HE DOES THE WORST THING OF ALL AND EVEN REJECTS THE fi|FT b e c a u s e h e d o e s n ' t want t o be t h a n k f u l , h e d o e s n ' t want t o b e obligated, he doesn't want to say, "You're m Master, you're m Capy y tain!" (Maria: So in effect he calls us l i a r s . H won't believe what we e are saying, so he i s calling us l i a r s . See, he says i t ' s adultery and we say i t i s n ' t , and he continues to insist on i t , so in effect he i s calling us liars and the worst sinners of a l l . ) 15. W A A RELIEF DEAR ARTHUR IS HT GOING TO BE TO YOU! Thank God you were s u c c e s s f u l with r e a l l y t h e b e s t and t h e g r e a t e s t and t h e most wonderful! Brian was always a problem c h i l d , he was always a c a s e , and h e was always a bore and e v e r y t h i n g e l s e ! He j u s t t a l k e d , t a l k e d , t a l k e d a l l t h e time, a l l about hims e l f a l l t h e time! He was never i n t e r e s t e d i n you nor your problems,

n o t h i n g ! He hardly e v e r even asked q u e s t i o n s about u s , n o t h i n g ! He was just so totally self-centered he talked about himself a l l the time and his girls and his problems, hour after hour! 16. I SAT THERE IN ONE SESSION AND I BET I LISTENED TO HIM FOR TE M JL . HOURS! Of course I had t o do some s h o o t i n g t o o and I g o t i n a word here and there e d g e w i s e , but t h a t ' s about a l l ! I thought one time I was going t o time him and j u s t l e t him t a l k and s e e how l o n g h e ' d t a l k . I think he would have j u s t t a l k e d f o r e v e r i f I h a d n ' t have f i n a l l y socked i t t o him, and I think i f i t h a d n ' t been f o r t h e appeal o f going t o bed with Maria he would probably be s t i l l talking yet! 17. SEE. THAT IS A PICTURE OF THE SINNER TOO: H IS NOT REALLY INTERE ESTED IN THE MESSAGE AND THE W R S OD OF GOD, he wants t o g e t i n h i s a r guments and h i s r e a s o n i n g , h i s l o g i c a c r o s s , and he wants t o g i v e you a l l h i s e x c u s e s f o r n o t b e i n g w i l l i n g t o a c c e p t , and s o o n . I s n ' t t h a t a p i c t u r e of the s i n n e r ? Oh, what a p i c t u r e ! But b r i n g i n g i t down t o the sexual p l a n e , b r i n g i n g i t down t o the sexual l e v e l and u s i n g s e x as an i l l u s t r a t i o n , how much more e f f e c t i v e an i l l u s t r a t i o n could you g e t ? 18. PEOPLE THINK NOTHING OF REJECTING CHRIST. BUT FOR A M N T A O REJECT SEX AT THE LAST MOMENT, THE FINAL INSERTION WHEN HE I S ABOUT TO GO CRAZY FOR I T , THIS PEOPLE CAN UNDERSTAND AS ABSOLUTE INSANITY! Whereas t h e y d o n ' t t h i n k a n y t h i n g of the insanity of rejecting Christ! But yet this i s an illustration of such love, such total giving. (Maria: H s t i l l insisted on having e the door shut too.) Oh, i s n ' t that a screamwith nobody there! H e doesn't even want the spirits walking in!Ha! Oh, thank You Lord! Well, i t i s an experience! 19. NO WONDER GOD GETS SO ANGRY WITH THE SINNER, AFTER ALL THAT

'JESUS & SEX!"MO & Maria. LOVE AND T E STILL WON'T LET HIM HY IN, s o then His wrath i s heaped out on him! God i s j u s t fed up! He has t r i e d e v e r y t h i n g He can t o h e l p somebody, t o love them and have mercy on them and t o f o r g i v e them and t o give them s a l v a t i o n and g i v e them the world with a s t r i n g around i t and happiness and Heaven on Earthand they s t i l l r e j e c t i t ! God must get so angry He j u s t wants to sock 'em one and wipe 'em o u t ! You can understand the judgements of God, you can understand the anger of God a f t e r a l l o f t h a t ! 20. G D IS NOT SO A G Y AT THE O N R SINNER F R BREAKING T E RULES. He O H knows the s i n n e r i s a s i n n e r and c a n ' t keep the r u l e s . But f o r r e j e c t i n g the free g i f t of God's l o v e and s a l v a t i o n and happiness and joy and e v e r y t h i n g God has got t o g i v e him i n Christ h i s Saviour(Maria: And f o r t e l l i n g God i t i s n ' t t r u e , and c a l l i n g Him a L i a r ! ) Y e s , f o r r e j e c t i n g and s a y i n g , "I don't b e lieve i t , i t i s n ' t so!

" , the Devil doubts t o Eve i n the g a r den. "Oh n o , thou s h a l t not s u r e l y d i e ! But God has some o t h e r motive, see? I t i s not because He r e a l l y l o v e s you that He d o e s n ' t want you to e a t of that t r e e . I t ' s not b e cause i t i s r e a l l y bad for you, i t ' s not r e a l l y because i t i s e v i l . but God has another motive He's not t e l l i n g you! He i s being s e l f i s h , trying to withhold something from you! I t ' s because H really hates e you and H doesn' t love you like ^1_ e do!" Those are exactly the Devil's arguments, see? Isn't that something!

24. WELL. SO YOU LAY THERE AND SOCKED IT T HIM WITH THE WORD. O (Maria: Well, I t r i e d e v e r y t h i n g I could think o f , and f i n a l l y he s a i d , "You know, you can understand, c a n ' t you, Love?" So f i n a l l y there at the end I s a i d , "Yes, I guess s o . " I mean what good was i t , I j u s t . . . ) You understand a l r i g h t ! Understand t h a t he was t o t a l l y r e 21. H HAS HAD T ADMIT THAT G D E O O HAS LOVE FOR HIM, he has had t o ad- j e c t i n g the love of God! How much mit he b e l i e v e s i n His l o v e because more could anybody i l l u s t r a t e t h e i r he has seen His love i n her and me. r e j e c t i o n o f God's l o v e than i n t h e He's seen i t , he b e l i e v e s i t and he way t h a t he has r e j e c t e d Maria i n that r e s p e c t ! b e l i e v e s t h a t the l o v e i s t h e r e .
