<TITLE>04. Par 13-16</TITLE>L-13 And, of course, Leo and Gene setting here, my co-workers in the Gospel. And Brother Alment, and the other brother here, he drives down at my tabernacle every day. He knows I'm going to be there, and I don't... What is your name brother? Smith, is it? Smith. And comes way up here from around Hammond or Gary, or somewhere, with a little old car, and I... Somebody looked in the other day, a brand new car, and he's got about eighty something thousand miles on it. Most of that's between here and Jeffersonville, driving back and forth.
And I know this brother's face, but I can't call his name. And many of you, I know your face, but I just can't call your name. I got some colored friends setting here tonight also, down here, new, recording down here. The Lord bless you all. Thank you, Brother Joseph. I had a little hoarseness. Thank you.

L-14 Now, we love Him with all of our hearts, so tonight we're going to take a little Scripture lesson, and then I want to try to have--be--have the prayer line going, and--for tomorrow's Monday and you got to go to work, and you got to catch trains out. And I've kept you late every night, and you forgive me for that, will you? And lot of times I get so enthused when I start. Could I call it preaching? Anyhow, when I'm having a good time, well then, I get so enthused I lose all thoughts of time and everything. So you've been very nice to stay with me, and it just makes me love you with all of my heart.
Now, I want to read some words out of God's Bible in I John the 1st chapter and the 5th verse to the 7th. And I believe we'll just read the 7th verse and that will make it shorter. You read the whole chapter when you get home if you can.
If we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanseth us from all sin.
Isn't that marvelous? Let's ask Him to bless the reading of His Word now.

L-15 Heavenly Father, bless Thy Word tonight, and may It go out to every heart, and find a dwelling place, and never leave no more. Grant it, Lord. And now, circumcise the lips of the unworthy person that's to speak. And circumcise all the ears of these people who are to hear. And get glory out of the service, for we ask it in Jesus' Name, Thy loving Son. Amen.
Now, I want to speak to you just a little while tonight, being this has been such a wonderful week, upon, "The Way To Have Fellowship."
Now, we know that... I was going to continue my service tonight, the children of Israel over in the homeland; Joshua taking them over where we left last night when he was crossing the Red Sea. But I wouldn't have time in this prayer line so you can catch trains, and so forth, and get home and go to work in the morning.

L-16 Now, this will be short, we can talk to you just short on this. But how that every person desires fellowship. I've never seen anyone yet who did not desire fellowship. That is was--is all right, mentally balanced. Now, you might want to pick your fellowship, 'course that's true to every one of us. That's the reason tonight that all these fine people have packed out here in this building to a place where they're standing, is because that they like this type of fellowship. They like Christian fellowship. And that's why we come tonight, to fellowship around the Word.
I love the Word, don't you? And you know why you love the Word? You have the Holy Spirit in you. For the Bible said that man does not live by bread alone, but by every Word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. So the Holy Spirit feeds on the Word. And then when you hear the Word... Everyone wants to hear It, no matter... Every little piece of literature they can pick up, they--they read it. And they listen to the radio, and they go to church and so forth, because they are longing for that fellowship around the Word.
