<TITLE>03. Par 18-26</TITLE>L-18 We can't look at democracy. Now, it was right; but it's run; it's lived its life. Kings lived their life, and kingdoms, and dictators and all have lived their day. Democracy was the best thing they had. But it's so polluted through politics; it's rotten to the core, no hopes on it at all. You're just like trying to build on a charred city that's burnt to smolders. You can't build it. It's ruined and gone. And it has to be that way. It must come that way. The Bible says it'll be that way.
Satan is the ruler of every nation. Every kingdom belongs to Satan, and he rules them according to his own way of ruling. But did not he offer them to the Son of God one day? "These are mine, I do with them whatever I want to, all the kingdoms of the world." That's the reason they fight, and kill, and murder.
But Jesus said, "Get thee behind Me, Satan."
For He knew that He would fall heir to them. "And rejoice, all ye heavens and ye holy prophets, for the kingdom of this world has become the Kingdom of our Lord, and He shall rule it and reign a thousand years." Then there'll be no more war. Oh, for that great day to come.

L-22 Oh, let me persuade you, in Christ's Name. You precious people here, put all your hopes on Him, for He's the only foundation. For there's coming a shaking. Democracy's shook to pieces. Kingdoms is shook to pieces. Nations is shook to pieces. We're at the end of all things. "But we receive a Kingdom that cannot be moved; steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the mercies of God." Oh, I love that. I'm so glad tonight to be a Christian. I--I--I don't know what I would do if I wasn't a Christian. I'd probably be a suicide case if I wasn't a Christian. For knowing and seeing these things, and--and then with the gift that the Lord has given me to foresee and understand what He will let me do, just let me see it... I know it's just across the horizon yonder. See? See it coming as close as it is, then it makes me scream with all that's in me. Oh, flee the wrath that is to come.

L-23 God, be merciful. Heavenly Father, O God, I pray. Somehow help us, Lord. Give us a understanding of this great something that's slipping up like a serpent, charming, as it was, the bird that's has once been free, setting in the tree, but now the serpent has caught its eye. And it's weaving, giving a way, soon it'll be into his mouth and his poison fangs. God, be merciful. May everyone here tonight, that's not perfectly anchored away in Christ Jesus the Son of God, may they come tonight and be borned anew of the Spirit, Lord, and that their hopes might be on His coming, "All those that love His coming." Grant it, Lord. In Jesus' Name we pray. Amen.

L-24 I want to take my subject tonight, the Lord willing, from the Book of I Peter. And if you wish to read with me, the I Peter the 5th chapter, and let's begin about the 5th verse: I Peter 5, beginning with 5.
Likewise, you younger, submIt yourselves to the elders. Yea, all of You be subject one to another, that--and be clothed with humility: for God resists the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.
Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due season:
Casting all your cares upon him; for he careth for you.
What a beautiful Scripture reading. Now, I'd like to take this for a subject: "He Careth For You."

L-26 And it is also written in the 14th chapter of St. John:
Let not your hearts be troubled: if you believed in God, believe also in me.
For in my Father's house are many mansions: if it wasn't so, I would've told you. I will go and prepare a place for you.
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will return again, to receive you unto myself; that where I am there ye may be also.
