<TITLE>01. Par 1-8</TITLE>63-1115, The World Is Falling Apart, Marc Ballroom, New York, NY, 96 min
L-1      Only believe,
All things are possible, only believe;
Only believe, only believe,
All things are possible, only believe.

L-2 Let us bow our heads for a word of prayer. Our Heavenly Father, we are again, tonight, expressing to Thee, the Great Almighty, how thankful we are to be assembled here together, alive and able to worship Thee, tonight. And we've come together for that purpose, to sit together in Heavenly places, as brothers and sisters, citizens of the Kingdom of God, waiting for the coming of the Holy Spirit upon us, that He might reveal to us what we should do, the program of our life. We want to walk according to His will.

L-3 And we pray, Lord, that You will start from the foundation and just cleanse us, Lord, and make us new creatures, that we might be fit for Thy service. Knowing this is totally impossible for us, Father; for no more could we cleanse ourself than a leopard could lick his spots clean, he only brightens it by trying to make his own effort. But, "There is a Fountain filled with Blood, drawn from Emmanuel's veins." That's what cleanses the leopard spots. I pray Thee, Heavenly Father, to grant, tonight, that each one of us can plunge beneath There, leaving all of our doubts behind, all the doubts of God's love and promise for us in these hours. We ask it in Jesus' Name. Amen.

L-4   Let us sing this as we sit down. Instead of saying "only believe," let's just raise our hands and sing "now I believe." Yeah, everyone now.
Now I believe, now I believe,
All things are possible, now I believe;
Now I believe, now I believe,
All things are possible, now I believe.

L-5 Lord bless you, as you be seated. Oh, it sounds so appropriate. After asking God, then tell Him, "now I believe," after asking Him.

L-6   This has been a real hard day for me. There is so many things to do, and maybe seventy-five interviews waiting, and you just can't get to them all, that's all. It's just totally impossible. And I had four calls, today, to fly out of town; one to Beaumont, Texas; and one to Houston; and one to Campbellsville, Kentucky; and one to Little Rock, Arkansas, emergency sick. And just before leaving, there come in a call for me to fly from here, Sunday night, as soon as service was over, to be way somewhere close to the West Coast, to preach a funeral. And you just can't get to all. And that's just what come in here, the ones that know we're here; what about at home, in the office, you see? And them is people that's nice people. And they're Christians, many of them. And they... But you just can't be everywhere at once, so you just try to do the best you can while you're there. It does make you nervous. But you know it takes nervous people, sometime, to get somewhere, you know, and they get keyed up into a spot.

L-7   Did you know that most always that people under inspiration are considered neurotics? That is right. Just think of which one of the prophets wasn't considered a neurotic, see. Even Jesus, they said, "You are mad," means crazy, see. And Paul said, "In the Way that's called 'crazy,' that's the way I worship God." See, heresy, "crazy."

L-8   And you take poets. For the inspiration, they climb into a place where just ordinary people doesn't get there. I think of--of Stephen Foster, who gave America its famous folk songs. Now, I think he had it in his mind, but not in his heart. And I used to live just across the river from old Kentucky home. You know, after writing that famous folk song, he would go out and get on a drunk. And he just couldn't stand it. And finally while coming out from under that inspiration, one day, he called a servant and got a razor, and committed suicide. See, you--you're...
