<TITLE>08. Par 28-30</TITLE>L-28 I thought, "If that could make a man who is living under the flag of the British crown feel like that, when a earthly king passes by, what's it going to do when our King of king comes riding by one of these days with His beautiful Bride all clothed and has made herself ready. Though He has scars in His hands and nail prints, He will stand as a King, the King of kings and the Lord of lords. I want to see that day."
I've often wondered, those Angels, when they see this great inauguration taking place, when Jesus does return in a physical body...
About two years ago Mr. Moore, Mr. Brown, and myself were coming down from Roosevelt Dam. And we'd been up there visiting the nature and so forth, and having fellowship. And we begin to sing the best that we could, the old Blood songs of redemption. And it seemed like down through those desert hills it just went on and on.

L-29 And I said, "Brother Moore, not a real vision, but I see a vision of someday when Jesus comes, when all the redeemed of all ages stands on the face of this earth and sings, tells the story, saved by grace, and sings those redemption songs, Angels will stand just off the earth with bowed heads not knowing what we're talking about. They never needed redemption. We were the ones who were lost. We were the ones who He redeemed. They're His created beings, but we were lost and now we are found. We can sing of redemption. What a day it will be.
In this particular case of this shepherd... I might go just a little further with you while we got maybe a few more moments. I watched that shepherd come down through a street. And on the street... In Palestine and different countries, the orient everywhere, they don't take their food and put them in fine glass counters like we do. They just have a little spray coming up, or just a bunch of fruit laying out, and stuff, right on the streets.

L-30 And here come that shepherd, going right towards one of them places. And I thought, "Now you're going to have a riot, sure enough."
And as we drove up close to watch, the strange thing was, that shepherd went right down through between those great walls of fruits, of dainty things, like pears and vegetables, which the sheep would love. And it sure looked like them sheep would jump from one side to the other one, but they followed that shepherd so close they never looked to the right or to the left. They walked right through every temptation, following the shepherd. I thought, "O God, a true borned again sheep of the fold will go through the temptations of this life following the Shepherd. 'My sheep know My voice.'" He just spoke to them.
And I noticed, in those great times of distress, those great temptations, those little old sheep looking from side to side. And one time a lamb would try, the mammy would nudge him a little. We need some more old fashion nudging mammies with our kiddies tonight when they're doing wrong.
