L-1 Thank you, Brother Neville, the Lord bless you. Thank you. Morning, friends. It's a privilege to be here this morning in the Presence of the Lord, in the Tabernacle with the people. And it's a rainy day outside, and I just drove up just now, and the way you were singing and clapping your hands, they must be having showers of blessings on the inside. So that's very good. So we're very thankful for this day. It's a... We got to have the rain. If we don't have the rain, then the Master cannot gather His fruits. So we have a--a rain inside, spiritual, or there won't be any fruits for the harvest. We have to have a rain on the outside or we won't have any natural harvest. That's right.

L-2 And, you know, both of it, it takes something that died so that we can live. The harvest brings on life, and life has to produce death. Through death we live. You know, every day, by your natural life, something has to die so you can live. You have to... something dies. So you--you eat and live by dead substance. If you eat a pork chop, the hog died. If you eat beefsteak, the cow died. If you eat corn, it died. If you eat wheat bread, well, it dies. You eat kale, it died. You live by dead substance, naturally. Then isn't that proof that Something had to die so we could live eternally? Christ died, the Son of God, that we can live eternally. So I'm so happy for all of that this morning, to be knowing that these great disastrous times that we're living in now, and know that Christ died for sinners, and that was me, that He died for me.

L-3 Now, I guess last Sunday you remember that the Lord a few days ago spoke to me and said we were going to... You notice in the last Sunday's tape there were coming disasters. Just coming down I was listening to broadcast, and Germany's got the worse flood they've ever had in the nation. It's killed hundreds, and people are even hanging themselves. I jotted this down, coming down. And dikes has broke through and everything in Germany. And England has the most terrific windstorms; it's blowed, I believe, seventy thousand houses away already. See? Well, we're at the end time. Jesus will appear one of these days, and we're at the end time. Just remember, this is just beginning; it's going to continue to come on and on. We're at the end.

L-4 Now, tomorrow, right after the message today, we're getting ready to leave for Arizona again, so we ask the church to pray for us, and as we go. And then I got a great decisions I have to make, friends, and I can't make them alone, 'cause I don't know what to do. And I will ask this church, as a group of believers sojourning here with me, that you'll pray for me, that my decisions will be the right place to go as some three hundred overseas cities, I think, is calling, and--and--and Switzerland, Germany, and--and Africa, and everywhere. So we pray that God will just help us to do the right thing where He can use us at. And you pray for me. I'm going to be praying for you always; you know that. So you pray for me that the Lord God will guide me.
Now, on coming back from Arizona, the Lord willing, I--I want to call the attention and we'll announce it at the church, they will here, and I would like to have a little longer time to speak with the congregation here. I got a message, and I'd like to preach about eight hours or something (See?) so like that. When we...
