<TITLE>01. Par 1-13</TITLE>64-0411, Spiritual Amnesia, National Guard Armory, Birmingham, AL, 79 min
L-1      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-2 Let's remain standing just a moment now for the Word of the Lord. Let's turn to Amos, the prophet Amos, the 3rd chapter, beginning with the 1st verse.

L-3 I want to thank Sister Juanita and Anna Jeanne and Sister Moore, for that lovely chorus of songs. It brought me back, as I set over there and listened to it. I was thinking, when they were with us, singing in the campaign, Brother Jack and I were talking, them girls were little bitty girls, just little sixteen, something like that, girl. Now, I think, Sister Anna Jeanne has five children, and Sister Juanita has--has... the mother of two children. And we are really closer to that sunset, women, than we was then, about sixteen years difference. Won't be long, we'll be crossing over, that glorious time.

L-4   Now in Amos the 3rd chapter, let's read.
Hear this word that the LORD hath spoken against you, O children of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up... out of Egypt, saying,
You only have I known... all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for... your iniquity.
Can two walk together, except they be agreed?
Will a lion roar in the forest, when he has taken no prey? will a young lion cry out of his den, if he's taken nothing?
Can a bird fall in a snare upon the earth, where no gin is for him? shall one take up a snare from the earth, and having taken nothing from it?
Shall the trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in the city, and the LORD has not done it?
Surely the Lord... will do nothing, but he reveals his secrets to his servants the prophets.
The lion has roared, who shall not fear? the Lord... has spoken, who can but prophesy?
Let us bow our heads.

L-5   Lord Jesus, may this, Thy Word, Lord, may we have fellowship tonight around this portion. We pray, Lord, that You will give us a context for the text, that we shall take from here, and may it bring honor to Thee. Bless us as we're waiting, Lord, tonight, upon Thy Word. Heal the sick and the afflicted. Save the lost. Give strength to the feeble, Lord, that's getting weak, both physically and spiritually. And give us a great outpouring of Thy Presence, for we ask it in Jesus' Name. Amen.

L-6 I wish to take for a text, from this, tonight: Spiritual Amnesia.

L-7   Don't forget, tomorrow, it's the prayer for the sick tomorrow. We expect the Lord to do exceeding great things, tomorrow afternoon at two o'clock, where we... when we begin our services. The boy will be here to give out prayer cards. And everyone will be prayed for that wants to be prayed for. And we're expecting a great time, tomorrow, in the Lord.

L-8 Now you people are here, visiting from out of town. Remember, there is fine, full Gospel churches all through the city. You are welcome to all of them.

L-9 I was just talking to one of my associate pastors, outside, just come in, Brother Jackson, formally a Methodist church, down a city or two below us.

L-10 And how many is here that's associated with the tabernacle, let's see your hands, everywhere. My, I'm sure--sure glad to have you down. This is the closest meeting I've been to Indiana for quite a while. I'm thinking about coming back, pretty soon, and putting up a tent and having those seven last Trumpets, the Lord willing.

L-11 So, now, but remember tomorrow. Don't forget it, tomorrow at two o'clock. And, now, our next service will begin next week, in Tampa, Florida.

L-12   Now I want to speak on: Spiritual Amne-... Amnesia.

L-13 Now, this little fellow that we're talking about, Amos, just for a moment, to get our background before we get to the text. This was during the time of the great prosperity in Samaria. Israel had prospered. They had really went after the world and had prospered.
