<TITLE>02. Par 5-8</TITLE>L-5 And so, I thought maybe... ask--asked tonight, I said to Brother Welch, "What would you--what would we say when the folks come around. Do you think..." We thought maybe if you had a little question on your mind, just a little something that you could, maybe something that I could answer, something that you wouldn't want to take, maybe, their time up there at the Tabernacle when you're there, some little question. And that's what I dropped by for.
So, we know that you go to work in the morning. It's ten minutes after nine. So, we will get right into it. But before we do that, could we just bow our head for a word of prayer.

L-6 Our heavenly Father, we're so glad for Jesus Christ our Lord, Who--Who saved our souls from a life of sin, and has made us the citizens of His Kingdom. By His grace we are saved, and that not by ourself, or by our works, but by His mercy we are saved.
So, we're so glad of that. And we know that someday we'll see Him. For we'll have a body like His own glorious body, and we'll see Him as He is. At this time, yet we do not know how that will take place. But it's not for us to know. We only look forward to it by faith. And the whole walk is faith. So, we're thankful for these things.
We pray that You'll bless these people, Lord. As I drove down here, You know what was in our hearts last night, wife and I, as we talked along the road. How that blessful we feel to be to have friends that would sacrifice to come hear the glorious Gospel of the Son of God, would drive all those hundreds of miles through a day and night, just to hear one message.

L-7 God, I pray that You'll give them each one a glorious home in the Kingdom. Bless them while they're here on earth. Prosper them in whatever they do. May it prosper.
And these young children, Lord, just little fellows yet. And many of them here in teen-age, and yet they set with a reverence and respects as an adult. God, I think they're the best in the land. I pray that You'll bless them, Lord. May they never want for anything. And may in the great Kingdom beyond, when the family is all gathered together, I'm sure they'll be there, Father. I--I pray that You'll have each one of them there. May they never turn from that great narrow path that they've been taught to walk in. Grant it, Lord.

L-8 Now, tonight I thought, Father, we'd find out what's on the people's hearts. You know their hearts. And I pray Thee, Father, that You'll help me in--to answer their questions. That it might be good for us. That it'd be good for us to be here and we could go along saying, "Did not our hearts burn within us because of His Presence?"
Come now, Lord. Walk around the chairs. Put Your hand on every shoulder. And rub Your nail-scarred hand across each heart, that we might know that it's our Lord that's near. For we ask it in Jesus' Name. Amen.
