L-1 Sure good to be back and hear the brother pastor give the testimony of the grace of God with his little girl. That's just like the Lord Jesus to do things like that. Certainly is.
Now, we are very happy tonight to have with us, a--one of our guests here at the--as we call it, the prayer service on New Years night, a good friend of mine, Brother Ernie Fandler, one of the converts to the Lord Jesus Christ, a trophy of grace. Originating, his home in Switzerland, is where he came from. And I believe the brother with them there that--which they're living in Shawano now, a German by descent, a Brother Waters. We're happy to have them with us tonight.

L-2 Then we have also with us tonight a--a precious brother of the faith, South Africa, Brother David duPlessis. We're happy to have him with us too. And we're... David and I are--are anticipating, or praying, and the Lord to give us some great work together this coming year into Africa, and different parts of the world.
Brother David is here now to talk it over, and pray over with it, between now and Monday to decide just when, and where into-- to Africa, and different parts of the world to go. As Brother David has had a very prominent office with the Pentecostal World Convention, and also is well known with many great religious leaders throughout the entire world. And's been very influential in persuading and causing, as far a long as we are now, to help bring the body of Jesus Christ together of all denominations of faith. Regardless of what the... they... church they have, or what they--brand they're branded, it--it's that--the Church in who Christ died for.

L-3 And I've often thought of that. I used to help round up the cattle many times out West. And we'd go up, Brother David, and set out there where they drove the cattle up through the drift fence, up into the mountains to feed them on the... let them graze on the pastures, the--of the forest. While the meadows was growing in the bottom, wild meadows, and then they'd cut the meadows and feed the cattle out through the--through the wintertime, when there's too blizzard up in the mountains.
And used to set there on the saddle and watch the ranger bringing those cattle through. And each ranch in the bottom that could raise a ton of hay... If they could raise fifty ton of hay, that meant they could put fifty cattle. If they could raise a thousand ton of hay, a thousand head of cattle could go through.

L-4 Each man carrying a brand on his cows. They watched the brands, of course, the different ranches, so they wouldn't get them mixed up. And then when the... The ranger, he wasn't so interested in what kind of brands was going through, because there's all kinds of brands. But there's one thing that he really had to check, that was a blood tag. They had to be registered Hereford, or they couldn't get through the gate. They would turn them back. See?
And I think that's the way it'll be at the judgment. It'll not be what kind of brand we're wearing, but if the Blood tag's there. Ha. That's the thing that'll--that'll count, the Blood tag.
