<TITLE>04. Par 11-15</TITLE>L-11 And I seen a renowned woman walk in, though she was dressed old fashion, with a skirt down, and the little things around the neck, and big hat turned over, and lots of hair done up in the back. So I seen her walking up through the building and--through the place. This wasn't a building; it was outside. And there was a box on each side, like where the celebrity set. And she was in this box in a few moments, bowing to the people. And I got in the pulpit and was going to preach. And the lady turned to bow her head to me, like this. When she had her head down, I bowed mine. I was in five feet of her. And when she raised up, it was mother, beautiful, young.
Just then, like over here, a thunder and a lightning and a roar, and a Voice said, "Do not worry about her no more. She's like she was in 1906." I went away and looked in the old family Bible to find out what happened in 1906, and that was the year that she was a bride to my father. So today she is part of the Bride of the Lord Jesus, of which I am a member. Someday I will see her again.

L-12 And I'm sure that Sister and Brother McPherson in their loss... And I want to say that Brother Tommy Hicks just called me a few days ago, when I first got into Phoenix here. He lost his brother. I guess it's been announced, one of our brethren. He was killed instantly down in Mexico. And Brother Tommy had to fly in to identify his brother, which was an unsaved person. And poor little Tommy was crying, his heart would break.

L-13 And I trust that--that we'll never have that experience, but we all might be ready at that day to meet Christ, because if we--if we're not ready... It's not hard to go when you're ready, but, oh, when you're not ready...
And remember, those... That was not just... You don't dream those things; you see them, and they're actually facts. The old will be young there forever. There'll never be no more old age, or any trace of sin, or any trace of old age. What an encouragement it is to us to know that there is a land beyond the river.

L-14 I would like now, that we would approach Him by bowed heads and bowed hearts, as... I... Just for a little drama, as usually I like to give at the Business Men's breakfast... I want to read some Scripture, and before reading it and praying, I would like to ask if there's anyone here that has a request would like to be remembered, just raise up your hand to God, whatever the request is. Oh, it's--it's a needy audience, a needy world. Let us pray.

L-15 Our heavenly Father, as we walk in and out among the people, we are aware of the fact that someday we're going to make our last walk. We must meet each other for the last time on earth someday. And as each time we ministers go to the pulpit, we wonder if there will be another opportunity to introduce You to our congregation, not knowing what time that may come. And, Lord, we pray this morning to be merciful. And as I read Thy blessed Word, I pray that the seed will fall into the hearts of the people, that they will receive it.
And if there be any here today, Lord, that's not saved, may they get saved today. May they make that all-sufficient decision this morning by accepting the Son of God as their Saviour. Those who are weary in the Way, and has gone out of the Way, bring them back, Lord. And those who are in the Way, bring them joy, and peace, and satisfaction of their great acception of--in times past of the Lord Jesus.
