L-1 Praise the Lord. Is that on record too, back here? You have that on your record? They have the records in the back of the building. I tell you, if I was dying, and I was to hear that sing, I'd feel like I could go along pretty easy. In the days that when... This day that we're living, where they're trying to make Jesus just a prophet. See? "He was a good man, a teacher, philosopher, prophet."
I believe He was God, absolutely, and He was Deity, Almighty God, inveiled in flesh, borned a virgin birth, and He and Hisself, and then God came down and tabernacled in Him, and made Him Emmanuel. He--if He was just a man, if He was just a prophet, a philosopher, we're all lost. If He wasn't God, we're all lost. But He was God. We was saved by the Blood of God Himself, when He took on the form of sinful flesh, and became... Flesh and blood was His substance. What a marvelous revelation of the glory of God.

L-2 Can you sing that in Swedish? A tr... You can? That's very fine. We'd like to hear that one night before the service is over, wouldn't we? Sing in Swedish, I sure would. And some of these days, I want you to sing it in Sweden with me, you two, while we're over there in a big revival. That's just fine. Oh, all right; that's very fine. Oh, wonderful. Oh, it'll be great when we've all done crossed over, and got on the other side, and hear all these singers. Won't it be wonderful?
I had a visit this morning with the Christian Business Men again, down in little Glendale, down here. And my, what a time of fellowship we had, where all the Methodists, and the Baptists, and the Presbyterian, and the Pentecostals, and everybody, forgot what church they belonged to and...?... You know... There may be some of them present; I don't know. But you know, when I walked into that restaurant, business men, not ministers, business men was knelt around a booth in a circle having prayer in a restaurant, not standing up over the table, kneeling down on the floor. Say, you know, it'd be good for us preachers to get that sincere about it in once in a while, don't you think so? Yes, sir. That's right. I appreciate that. The Lord bless them.

L-3 If I had any business to do, I'd sure want to do it with men like that. I know they'd be honest and... A man that loves God, I--I can... I've got a lot of trust in him. And so, that's very fine. Where men of different... All one faith, of course, but different denominational churches is broad enough, and wide enough, and high enough, and strong enough, to forget the denominational barriers, and put their arms around one another, and be brother, say, that's--that's Christianity in action, isn't it?
Just think, if we had that tonight, what would take place in California. What if California tonight, if every person that professed to be a Christian, would forget about his denominational differences, and make everybody, every Christian, his brother? Why, there'd be a revival that the whole world would know about. That's right. It's a... But as long as the devil can keep you separated, that's as good as he wants. You'll never go forward like that.
You know how the Indians lost this nation to the white man? They wasn't united. We're going to lose it again by not being united. That's right; that's right. We'd better keep united.
