Now, an highway of holiness, people try to make themselves holy. And when you do, it’s just like I said before, it’s like a…It would be like a buzzard trying to put dove feathers in himself, to make a dove out of it, when his nature is still a buzzard. See? He, it’s…It would be like a crow trying to put a—a pigeon’s feathers in, or a peacock, and saying, “You see, I’m a beautiful bird.” See, it’s something manufactured.
But a peacock don’t have to worry whether he’s going to have peacock feathers or not. The dove don’t have to worry whether he’s going to have dove feathers or not. As long as his nature is a dove, he’ll have dove feathers.
And, see, the holiness people begin to say, “The women must wear long hair and long sleeves, and—and all these things, and long skirts, and not wear any wedding rings or jewelry of any kind.” See, it become a self-righteous holiness. See? See? That—that’s—that’s manufactured holiness.
