<TITLE>23. Par 82-84</TITLE>L-82 Well, it's really been nice for you all to come down here, and set, and talk with us, and everything. And I appreciate it. And I want to say again with all my heart; I mean this with all that's in me. I never realized what a great thing you people are paying. I--I just... If it wasn't for seeing you, and wasn't for loving you, and the things that I do, I'd say, "I ain't going to preach at that Tabernacle another time." To see you all have to drive fifteen, eighteen hundred miles a trip to go and hear a service.
Now, I appreciate that great loyalty. But yet, I think of what you're doing. See? Mmm. And I--I just trust to God that every one of you in the land beyond the river, you and your children, your little ones and all, that I'll--I'll see you over there. And I hope I'll be there. I trusting I'll be there.
Now see, every one of you may--may not one of your children be lost, not one of you lost; may we all be there at that day. And--and even to our little sister out there, the--the little colored lady out there, washing the dishes, out there in--in--in the other room.
I--I remember down here one day, talking to that woman. I believe... Is that the same woman? And her husband, I believe I met--met him over there one time. Or no, it's a boy that works for you. Seemed to be a fine little old guy. And I--I just hope we're all meet there where we--there will be no disappointments. And no more setting up late at night, because there'll be no night.

L-83 Oh, my brother, sister, if I could just--if I could just any way explain what it was that morning, when I was laying there beside my little wife there, and He lifted me up from that bed, and took me up there, and let me look a past the curtain.
If I could only just have the power now to explain to you what that looked like and what it was... I seen them all there. And they were all young. And I--I couldn't recognize them. See, they was all coming up to me, and putting there arms around me, and everything. And they were--they were human beings. See? They wasn't some kind of a feathers, like a... They say a angel... I don't think a Angel has feathers, although they just--they just say that. You see?
But an angel is a messenger. And that--the word means a messenger. So, I don't think they have feathers and things like that. But it's just... They were all there, and they were all happy. And they were no--could not be nothing else but happy. And if there wasn't no more than that, I would--it would pay us for all the running and things we do, and--and all like that.

L-84 But I want you to... I want to say this, that I believe too, that the Bible said in the last days there'll come a famine in the land. And that famine won't be for bread and water, but for hearing the true Word of God. And people will run from east, from west, from north and south, seeking to hear the Word of God. And we're just about living in that day now. See? When...
Not disregarding anybody (You see?), not disregarding our churches, no, sir... But if you know, I believe that in the pulpits of many of these churches, we have fine men, good men, real men of God. But they're afraid if they say anything that's contrary to what that organization says, then they'll be kicked out. Then they're left in the cold.
And I believe what the man needs is some courage. And I believe that, why, I believe God wants to take somebody and make an example to show that He will take care of them, regardless of their organization. So, that's what I'm--hope He will do with me, to help me, let me... And if I...
