L-1 Thank you very much. I would like to almost express my feelings. Like Brother Palmer said, "I'm a good listener." I certainly enjoyed this this morning. I wouldn't have missed this for nothing to hear these different brothers, and the ones who are giving these testimonies.
The brother just sing has been coming to our church up here, and I have knowed his mother and sisters here for, oh, many years. I've never gotten to the Tabernacle in time to hear him sing, and I was just going to suggest it. And then comes along, and said he was going to sing it. The brother here said he--he was going to sing it too. So I said you can get yours tonight. So we'll be glad to hear that.

L-2 It's always a--such a grand privilege to be around where the Presence of the Lord... And as there being, as our brother said, that there is so much flesh in our different denominations calling us away from each other, and... But there is a body, a mythical Body of Christ. That's the body that we are all coming into by one Spirit, baptized into that one body. And then we become citizens of the Kingdom of heaven.

L-3 Now, I believe that we're supposed to be out of here at twelve... What? Oh, is that all the time I got, just two hours? I'm kinda disappointed. You know, it takes me a long time to tell what I was thinking. But... And I'm thankful for an audience that bears with me. But I was just saying that. Just a few words for the businessmen and all that's here.
And I want to say it's been a grand time. Last evening my heart was warm, even when I got home, as they said, John Wesley said about "in his bosom," to see that our God still lives. And we don't have to guess about this. He's--He's real. It's the simplicity of just accepting what He has said and seeing it be made a reality.
The--the Word is a Seed. And if that Seed's put in the right ground under the right temperature, it'll grow if it's germitized. And we know this Word is germitized, 'cause It's God Himself. "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." It's still God. It was made flesh and dwelt among us.

L-4 We're so thankful to hear Methodists, Baptists, Presbyterian, Greek orthodox, and all together, coming together in one great place. And I believe Jacob dug a well, and the enemy run him away, and he called it "Malice." He dug another well, and they run him away; he called it "Strife." He dug another well, and said, "There's room for us all." So I think that's about the way it is.
Luther dug one, and Wesley dug one. Now, we got one there's room for us all. So let us just all stand and drink from this one well. If you're riding a one hump camel, or a two hump camel, or a three hump camel, you can still come and drink. That's all. We're on our journey.

L-5 I think now, after our little senses of humor and so forth... As I think it's good. Even God Himself has a sense of humor, you know. I think we ought to just bow our heads a moment before approaching His Word for prayer.
Our Father, great and mighty God, Who our singer has just expressed all of our feelings, "How Great Thou Art." We approach Thee in the name of Thy beloved Child, the Lord Jesus, our Sacrifice. And as we come from this building into Thy Presence by faith, we look across our Sacrifice to Thy throne, knowing that He has promised us if we ask anything in His Name it will be granted.
We are going to attempt to read Thy Word and speak on it. Now, let the Holy Spirit take the Word and plant It into the heart of each one of us. Circumcise the lips that speak and the ears that hear. And may It fall on good ground to bring forth a hundredfold. We ask in Jesus' Name. Amen.
