<TITLE>35. Par -</TITLE>L-57-4 And, Lord, above all things, may we never forget today that we are tied to the Absolute, our North Star, to Calvary, to Christ, and the Holy Spirit is taking the Words of God and making Them manifest literally to us by healing the sick, showing us visions, raising the dead, and doing just exactly what He promised to do.
And may this church and these people, or the portion of the Body of Christ that's assembled here this morning, live like Jesus said to live: "Ye are the salt of the earth." And may they become so salty till their community will be thirsty. Salt creates a thirst, and salt can only save as it contacts. And I pray, God, that You'll grant this to the people, that they might be soul winners also.

L-57-6 Bless our pastor, Brother Neville, this humble servant, Lord, standing at his post of duty just as reverent, as a member of the Body of Christ, trying his very best to follow everything that You'd tell him to do.
Bless the trustees, them men who stood with me so gracious in this great dark time that I've been through. Stand with the Church, who prayed with me and stood by me in times of trouble. Lord, I love them, and I offer my prayer that they will look to You, Lord. May they look away from this mortal clay of a servant; may they look to Him, Who is the Omnipotent, Who is... And we know, Lord, that we are finite. No matter who we are, we're still mortals. But not the messenger, but the Message... Grant it, Lord. That's where we point to Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Grant that He'll be so real to everyone here today, even to the little children, that He'll become the Absolute of the entire congregation. We ask in Jesus' Name. Amen.

L-58-1 I love Him, I love Him,
Because He first loved me,
And purchased my salvation
On Calvary's tree.
Now, while we sing it again, shake hands with somebody in front of you, back of you, side of you; just everybody shake hands now. Just remain seated; just turn around and shake hands if you can. See?
I love Him, I love Him,
Because He first loved me,
And purchased my salvation
On Calvary's tree.

L-58-2 They just announced Communion Monday night at midnight. Let's raise our hands now and sing to Him. How many--how many feels you've--He is your Absolute? The Word is... He is the Word. Do you believe that? He is the Word, and the Holy Spirit germitized that Word to make that Light live in you of the Word, the vindication of the Word. Put the Word in your heart; let the Holy Spirit come in and watch the Word move. Believe, be humble; don't desire to be a great somebody; be a nobody, that God can make you a somebody. See? All right. Do that now.
Everybody love Him say, "Amen." [Congregation answers, "Amen."--Ed.] You know what the word "Amen" means? "So be it." Amen. That's right.
Let's say, "Hallelujah." [Congregation answers, "Hallelujah."--Ed.] You know what that means? "Praise our God."

L-58-5 When I was in Germany not long ago, I got up before about thirty or forty thousand people out there that day, and I said, "It's a strange thing that you German people can't understand." I said, "On my road down here today, a dog barked at me in English. That's right." I said, "He had no trouble at all. And there set a bird, and he sang for me in English. I come down the street, and a mother had a little baby on her arm, when I come in back there at the back." And I said, "That baby was crying in English. What's the matter with you people?" That's right. Oh, if you just look around, He's everywhere, isn't He? Sure He is.
