<TITLE>01. Par 1-5</TITLE>51-0509, Testimony, Calvary Temple, Los Angeles, CA, 111 min
L-1 I want to say that I'm very happy. I want to start this tonight, that this elderly man who's eighty some-odd years old, about eighty-four years old. He isn't able to work no more. He's served his time. And if he has the enthusiasm to scatter the Message of Jesus Christ, I want to help him do it. God bless my brother. All right. Go ahead, Brother...?... May God bless each one. Come here.
[Brother Hall asks, "What are you going to start it with?"--Ed.] I'm going to start it... [Brother Hall asks, "Some money, huh?"--Ed.] Some money... [All right good, I will help you start it."] All right, sir; that's fine. God bless you.

L-2 Just I want him to say a word. All right. Come here, Brother Congressman.
This is the former Congressman of the United States. One time, one of the greatest men in our nation. God... He was crippled for many many years, sixty-six years, was healed here in this meeting. And I feel a great honor tonight to stand before a man, or with a man like this. That these crutches supported him for all those years of his youth, while he was being prayed for time after time to be healed. And at the age of about eighty-four Senator...
[Congressman Upshaw give his testimony: Just eighty-four. And I'm eighty-four years young, speak three and four times a day, preach the Gospel of the Christ Who saved me, stood by me on bed seven years, and made me happy, and then took me off of the crutches that I have used for fifty-nine years and now, glory to God I'm walking--Ed.]

L-3 Praise the Lord. And you know what this offering is for? He's not able to send this testimony around the country. He's... He can't do it. He's aged, and he has no income. This here offering is to help him send this to all the big men, rulers, and so forth of the nation. God bless our gallant brother.
And I want to give him an... this welcome here, to anywhere in the nation that I have meetings or in the world. I'd be very happy to see Congressman Upshaw come and stand by me at the platform while in services.
[Congressman Upshaw gives comment: Remember, I'm sending this folder to every congressman, and senator, the president, and his wife, and now sending this week to the king of England for whom he prayed, and Winston Churchill. And I'm going to send them to Joseph Stalin. God have mercy on his soul--Ed.]
Amen. Amen. [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]

L-4 Good evening. I'm happy to be out here again tonight in the representative Name of our Lord Jesus Christ, and His great mercy for us. And I'm sorry that this is the last night, because you're so good and nice to me, till I--I'd like to stay with you. But I... It... I have need.
Thank you, sister dear. And it... I have need to go somewhere else with the Gospel. And I trust that our Lord has done something here in the--the meeting that has give all you people a sufficient faith to believe in Him, and to love Him all your days of your life.

L-5 I realize that there is many here that's listening to me now, that I will probably never see no more on this earth. This will be our--probably our last meeting time this side [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.] of glory. And I want to have this appointment with each one of you, that if you shall go before I do, that... I believe the Bible statement of the Lord Jesus Christ is true. I believe all that the Bible says is true, that there will be a resurrection of the dead. And that those who... [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]... those which are waiting, shall be changed and made a body like His, and will be caught up together to meet Him in the air, and forever be with the Lord in the air.
I trust by God's grace to meet all of you there. May God grant that we can all meet and be there together in that great glorious time.
