[0:00] verse 16 through 19 thus saith the Lord stand ye in the waves and sea and ask for the old paths where is the good way and walk therein don't just find out what the old path is walk in you shall find rest for your soul but they said in those days we will not walk therein also I said watching them over you saying hearken to the sound of the trumpet this is the prophets again but they said we will not harken therefore hear ye nations and know the congregation what is among them hear a word the old have to bring evil upon these people even the fruit of their thoughts because they have not harken them by words nor do not a lot but reject it he will not only for himself but he will provide himself as the lamb it was a great great thought good song thank you very much hardly ever get a chance to travel the country see the shape of the church

[1:34] I have a lot of people that travel through here and tell me what they see for instance Tara was talking to me just briefly and she said this church here would be a big church on our tour most of them are very small and it's folks it's time to be alarmed it's time to be alarmed 40 years ago when I got into in the back half of the churches in the country half of the states in the country the largest church of any kind in the back of the God was an independent Baptist church half of the states it was an amazing time those churches were running thousands they were running five or ten thousand and the largest church in the country was Brother Albert on a big day he had twenty thousand and there was an occasion when he went all out and said let's see if we can have a hundred thousand they had a hundred thousand on the side

[2:52] I don't know what's happening but not one of those churches that was the largest in his state is still the largest in his state not one do you know why the nation has gone so bad it parallels the decline of the old fashioned church had we held the line our nation would have held the line but I'm telling you what if the fortunes of our nation depend upon the fortunes of old fashioned churches our nation is in trouble deep trouble now I was so surprised to find a large large independent church old winding church bus running church christian school church out east not much out east there was a lot the last section of the country to be covered with independent work 40 years ago there was nothing in these people began to go in there and start church

[4:15] I found in New Jersey a church that's humongous absolutely humongous this guy worked with Lester Roelhoff down in Texas learned all about Lester Roelhoff the most conservative guy you've heard of learned all about conservatism and how the church is all Jewish and then went north and built that church from scratch he's 72 years old now his two sons are going to take him one of already doing most of work as the assistant and that they have thousands and thousands and thousands of people the church itself the church building you wouldn't believe as I said you can put two of the golden churches in the authority and it was full of the girls only they all were dressed sharp all the ladies were might and dressed right it was amazing to see something like that in that area they are the mother church in that area they consider themselves kind of like that every year they have a big meeting and they invite pastors from all of the northeast and their families to come in for a meeting for preachers and the families they put them all up and they wine and dine for three or four days just to encourage these pastors and their families and their church goes all out to make it a wonderful one of these days and they'll have five six hundred days for that meeting pastors and I was so thrilled to hear that kind of thing that's going on what is the catch preacher is there a negative here let me tell you how the devil stops good churches it starts with the music when you come to this church there's going to be a hymnal in front of you and there's going to be a man up here without ragged jeans and a guitar three or four other ragged people up here they praise group we're going to have one man dressed in a coat tie leading the music out of a hymnal and if we don't keep that we'll lose our church the devil do you understand that the devil was once an angel he was the top angel and in charge of praise in heaven

[7:25] Michael Michael was in charge of the warrior angels in heaven and Gabriel was in charge of the messenger angels in heaven and Lucifer was in charge of the praised angels and the vows described him as a walking orchestra he is the number one musician in the universe he will destroy through the future he will all I saw made me bow my head and thank God there's something like that going on there we had a hymnal good hymnal sang a couple of hymns and then the special music started and the little boards lit up with little chords we sang a couple chords the choir sang some special booming choir 36 men and 24 women in that choir six voices booming choir they sang two or three special songs and we didn't know one of them they were not old fashioned songs they were modern songs we had several special songs trios what happened

[8:51] Paul said afterwards said we did not know and never heard one single song sung by him they're all marvelous my heart bleeds when I say this but that pastor doesn't know his sons do not know but the devil has got his toe open there and it will continue to deteriorate I don't know what the folks that we left in a few years to do with all that talk I want to have a way to life because the devil destroys churches that's the way it is wonderful people friendly people pastor was a great guy as I said his son went to Bible college with these two they don't have any out of this they got to following a fellow out on the west coast who many years ago was straight as narrow built a big church out there and then started sleeping they started following him when he was right they didn't jump off the bandwagon when he went home and so he was going to lead them same path down the same road and that's the way it happened the music changed and my heart breathes to say that and I don't have any problem but I want you to look at the scripture that we read 16 chapter 6

[10:42] Jeremiah 6 16 I might have said 16 16 sorry about that go to chapter 6 and you'll find it Jeremiah 6 16 I want you to see it you probably haven't found it but I gave you wrong Jeremiah 6 16 thus saith the Lord stand ye in the ways and see and ask for the old paths where is the good way now folks you're never going to change the Bible it's all you can say that God himself wrote down that the old way is the good everything has to be modern everything has to be changed and improved and developed and progressive but the always right and the more old fashioned that a church is the more old fashioned that a preacher is the closer to the Bible he's going to be that's what all there is to do and the devil will always modernize everything it looks like the thing to do but it's not the thing to do there's some things you don't change

[11:56] God said I'm the Lord I change not he said in another place there's not even a shadow of burning in me I mean I don't even make a shadow that looks like it's changing I'm not going to change I'm going to stay like I have hey he said that thousand years and the thing that's killing us is change it's change ask for the old paths where is the good way and walk there in and you'll find red fierce all but they said we will not walk there in no we want to be like the neighbors we want to church down we want to be like everybody so we are going to change we will not walk there in a nutshell that's what's happened to America the churches have said I'm not going to be old fashioned old fashioned

[13:00] I'm not old fashioned in my prayers I'm not going to be old fashioned in the way I go to find them I'm not going to be an old fogey I'm not going to be frumpy why I'm going to be stylish you'll never change that verse it'll always be in the Bible ask for the old path where is the good way and walk there in that's God's will you've got an old fashioned reason proud of don't let change gone too far this way let me tell you I gave up entire entire denomination I was raised in the denomination went to a Bible hall all my friends were there all the preachers that I almost idolized great men I passed for 10 years and

[14:04] I saw the 20 people they want and I had a choice to make for five years I tried to change my church into what you are and they threw me out they didn't want that I said let's walk in the old path that's the good way walk there in God said and they said we will not walk there in I went across the state and got another church and tried to do the same thing I tried to take an church and make one like you they said we will not walk there in I said way let's walk there in they said we will walk there in they threw me out too to the next church threw me out because I tried to go back to the old days church and old man in that second church was 82 years old that old man came to me and said we're going to preach next

[15:10] Sunday and I was very discouraged as a brother I don't know what to do I tried this twice I turned it down I can't do this praise God that's why I like him you preach like that preach when I fall!

[15:31] don't you ever change and I said I don't know what to do next you are going to be at my house next Sunday we're going to start with old fashion independent this is an old guy that was a deacon 60 years and his tombstone was already carved with his name on outside the church and his wife!

[15:57] was proud and he said we're going to build one of those old passion independent soul winning hell inspired damnation preaching churches like you're talking about I said do you know what you're saying and he said I don't exactly what I'm saying and my family will crucify and we're going to do it and he took that old man to make me a chance I didn't want to leave all that stuff!

[16:25] We built! We built an independent ass church God blessed that thing and we have been going ever since I gave up a lot for it I mean I did this on purpose and then I found a whole country full of people like me that was in the settlers and I don't know what to do again we lost all that I don't find any right means more now I'm the odd number I'm the odd number what am I to do I want you to get a burden for what I don't want you to say it like I don't want you to say well whatever you know whatever you know you know I know your church is going to die I've got to get you to see what

[17:26] I see I don't have to be around here all I mean the years are going to the time for me I won't even have to comb my hair pretty soon Bruce says why don't you go ahead shake it now I'm going to keep that little tuft as hard as I can I'm already placing it I'm not combing down placing it and spraying it down I don't know what I don't know what time can I don't know what I feel like I feel inside and I want to you what happened to you man all I need a new body I know I'm alright on the inside a new mind might have good

[18:29] I know I'm not going to be here forever and you're going to have to keep on doing what I can't tell you you're going to find rest for your souls if you do what time is and you're always going be an object you're always going to think you're crazy it's always going be like that but who!

[18:54] be on theirs or his I'm gonna stay on his side now I'll walk out here one of these days and get my bathroom sir I didn't change I want you to say the same thing I want you to say the same thing alright there's several areas ask for the old bible don't you change the Bible bless God when I was that high I had an old grandmother that sat down and put that old big family and King James Bible on her knee and read that thing to me and we had an America back in those days we were undefeated in those days anybody jumped on us they were going to be we had a God almighty behind us and in every home where I came from they had that old King James Bible and they read it but somehow in later years somebody decided that he was too old back so let's just revise it and revise it and change it and revive it and now you can't tell what the Bible says there are over 200 versions in English right now that's unbelievable most of them based on an inferior Greek text that two ungodly men let's talk about convince everybody else because they were scholars these two manuscripts are older than all the 5,000 others that the King James had built on these two are older so they must be right and all those 5,000 will be wrong so they started writing Bibles on those two manuscripts one of them they found in a trash can wonder why that it's all been in a trash can and the other one they found in the attic library on a dusty shelf and that's what you're in your Bible you better ask for the old bag you better get you a KJP that's the one that God gave us that's the old way

[21:30] I'm not going to change it you say well I read my King James Bible and there's some stuff in there that makes me blush well blush then go ahead and blush and read it you can blush can't you skip that part say it in your mind there's a few verses in there that I won't read but I'm not going to kick the whole thing out go ahead and blush keep the Bible pray for understanding I just can't understand did you know there are more one and two certain words in the King James Bible than all the other I would pray today did you know I was written in 4th 6th grade that way of course 6th graders back then were smarter than college people stay with your own wife let me just take a moment here we're going to get out today quite as quickly as usual

[22:37] I've got a little track here I've used it for years it's comparing the NIV which is the most popular with the KJP just listen to me in the NIV hell is omitted 40 times abomination abominable such words omitted 139 times Christ is omitted 52 times fornication is never mentioned many entire verses are missing in the NIV so that's the first thing well there are multitudes of changing when they got through changing things and took out the NIV they had left out from the King James 64,000 words and that's a lot left in time and God wrote his Bible and in the very last chapter he said don't you mess with my Bible don't you add to it and don't you take it from it because if you take it from it

[23:47] I'm going to take your name out of the book of life and they took out 64,000 there's 5,000 changes in the report to be honest now man doesn't have anything to do with that and I'm going to tell you the truth let me just give you some of this stuff I don't have time to give you all of it the deity of Christ is attacked alright the King James Bible says when he saw Jesus afar off he ran to worship him the NIV says when he saw Jesus from a distance he fell on the knee I fall on my knees a lot of times I worship God was scared too they're taking out all they can about Jesus the father of the child cried out and said in tears Lord I believe help thou my unbelief the NIV said immediately the boy thought and exclaimed I do believe that he'll go I left out Lord she said no man Lord the King the NIV says no one sir leave it out Lord as much as he can for a fruit against thy holy child Jesus

[24:58] NIV to conspire against your holy servant signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy child Jesus signs and wonders through the name of your holy servant Jesus your Bible is wandering down the deep of Christ the first man of the earth the first man is of the earth the second man is the Lord of heaven here's what the NIV said the first man of the dusty earth is the second man of heaven not the Lord of heaven just the man of heaven the Lord when the elders fell down and worshipped him he'll live forever and ever King James says the elders fell down and worshipped him is that the kind of Bible you want just just butchers what God said butchers what about salvation children how hard it is for them to trust in riches to enter in the kingdom of God you know the NIV says children how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God it's not hard to enter the kingdom of God it's hard for those that trust in riches but it's not hard to get saved very very I say to you he believes in me at the last of my

[26:18] I tell you the truth he who believes at the last of my doesn't matter what you believe but the Bible says believe it's in me we are kept by the power of God by faith and salvation through faith we're shielded by God and the nations of them that were saved will walk in the light of heaven NIV the nations will walk in the light of heaven all the nations that might be said now that's that's kind of Bible that you've got if you're not careful they hate the word pure the words of the Lord are pure words they're silver purified seven times thou shalt keep them O Lord thou shalt preserve them in this generation of reverence Psalm 12 says a great great verse about resurrection in the Bible NIV says the words of the Lord are flawless like silver you will keep us safe and protect you not keep the Bible for this generation of reverence keep us safe you see what I'm saying man shall not live for bread alone but every word of God

[27:23] Jesus entered it's written man does not live on bread alone just leave it out every word of God just leave it out the commandment of the Lord is pure Psalm 98 the commandment of the Lord is radiant not radiant the word that word is very pure Psalm 119 and 140 your promise is that every word every word of God is pure every word of God is flawless they don't like the word pure they eat the word pure entire verses left out wake up now listen Matthew 17 21 this kind goeth not out but by praying fasting omitted from the NIV Mark 11 26 if you do not forgive neither will your father and heaven forgive your death fast omitted in the NIV and the scripture was fulfilled when it said he was numbered with a transgression omitted in the NIV the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all amen omitted and Philip said if I believe it's with all my heart that I live and the answer he said

[28:28] I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God omitted in the NIV for the Son of Man has come to save that which was lost omitted I go on don't you think there's something wrong with that don't you think somebody need to say something about you that thing is full of changes like this like that now here's the kicker here's the kicker the NIV the NASV and all of them are just brothers just a lot they all say the same NASV New American Standard Bible listen to this I must under God renounce every attachment to the New American Standard Bible I'm afraid I'm in trouble with the Lord we led you groundwork I wrote the format I helped interview some of the translators I sat with the translators I wrote the breakfast I'm in trouble I can't refuse the arguments it's wrong it's terribly wrong it's frighteningly wrong and what am I going to do like

[29:30] I can no longer ignore these criticisms I'm hearing and I cannot refuse them when questions began to reach me at first began to reach me at first I would offend however in attempting to answer I began to sense that something was not right between the ASV upon investigation I wrote my dear friend Mr. Lachman Lachman Foundation explaining that I was forced to renounce all attachments to the ASV the product is grievous to my heart and helps complicate matters in this trouble of time the deletions that's leaving things out are absolutely frightening there are so many are we so naive that we did not suspect satanic deception in all of this I don't want to have anything to do with it the finest leaders that we have today have not gone into this the New Jersey use of corrupt Greek text just as I haven't gone into it that's how easily one you need to see I'm going to talk to Dr. George Sweeney president of the

[30:30] Booth Institute about this thing you can say that the authorized version is absolutely correct how correct is it 100% correct if you must stand against everyone else stand dr.

[30:46] frank who was one of the chief movement pushers of the NA he put that statement out like that took a lot of dust to be back and he might have saved him what kind of Bible are you going to use what kind of Bible are you going to use if you got anything else at home the devil behind that he didn't burn it he didn't burn it boy you don't believe that do you earn the word of God earn the word of God number two the old plan of salvation people get saved any way they want most denominations say not many people say old fashioned faith in God grace and faith in God he did all the work you just trust him that's all you do you have no idea how that is in the fact you have no idea

[31:54] Walter Wilson was a great writer and preacher of another generation he told a story about this preacher he said everybody that hears my voice will know who I'm saved if I called his name he is famous famous you would know him he never thought of him he said everybody knows this man and he said I want to see him on his death to say goodbyes this famous preacher and I walked in the room and he looked at me and his face was why did you Walter Wilson said and he looked at me and said Walter I'm dying and I'm going to take you and Wilson said I was done with that I thought he was delirious I said what did you say and he said I'm not saved I'm going to hell and he said you can't be serious I've known him for a long time

[32:55] I'm going to hell and he said I told him get on your knees let's get out of here and he said I can't fix this now it's too late God will not let you get saved now I'm going to and he said that great evangelist that everybody is going to get by heart dies freaks they'll end fire to earth we going to keep that salvation story pure we better not just assume that everybody is saved when that bible said few there be that man because many go down to the broadway we take that the man in the southern convention that keeps all the records goes from church to church and so says to and writes the book every year Jim

[33:55] Ellis he said in print it is my firm believe that southern baptism 90% if you're saved your life will be short if you didn't get changed you didn't get saved if you didn't get it you didn't get it when we were going to solar conference it was great big meetings all we went to Detroit where they were I was trying to learn how to give anything back the song leader was named Bill Hart he also remember him he and Dr.

[34:48] Christ will sing do that sometimes he said he was Jack Howells song director he was going to Texas one day howells preached a sermon down in Texas gave the invitation to Bill Hart left leaving the scene he got on his crying howells said he said somebody have to pray with him and the deacon came back and said sir Bill Harvey says he's not saved because he's known he's not saved for a long time I said get down there and you say the man who was a song director for a great preacher in this country for six years and became the music director for also a lot time was a man in ministry and he got saved

[35:48] I'm not him I was his associate pastor named Jim White still why! his wife when House announced that Bill Harvey just got saved she got up and said I need to get saved to you don't you ever take lightly that there is a way that Bible says you go to heaven and you don't go to heaven you don't go to heaven but you are son of anything전 r전 r these stories are not unusual you born again. Don't you trust anything else?

[36:57] You trust Jesus. And when you trust him fully and completely, something changes inside you. And you got it. We're not going to change that. We're going to keep preaching that.

[37:11] We're going to keep preaching that. That's the old man. That's the way you get saved. One of the things that I fear is standing at the judgment.

[37:25] I have to give an account to my church. You know that. 13, 17. And so, all of you come down, gather in a group. And then the Lord starts to say, that one, that one, that one.

[37:41] You can go out. You're not saved. That one, that one, that one. You're not in the church. You're impossible. You can go. I didn't know that. I fear it.

[37:55] Let me tell you something. Don't you ever take it lightly and assume that you're saved with God. Somebody said you are on your sign of the card.

[38:06] Amen. And you pray a prayer. Come on. If you didn't trust in God fully and meant for him to change you, and you were sincere, if you thought you could just get a fire and you thought you would attack a little like the devil, you didn't get it.

[38:20] You go through that baptism 40 times and you were just coming out of a wet syndrome. You went and cried. That's all. If you didn't really sincerely say, oh God, I'm a sinner.

[38:32] I'm not right. I can't go to heaven like this. Please change me. Make me a child of God. I'm a servant. Amen. If you didn't expect to be changed and get changed, if you didn't get saved.

[38:43] Right. I don't mean the priest who's trying to rob you. You're a church. But we got to get serious about this thing. Several times in the Bible it says you make sure calling and election sure.

[38:57] You make sure you're safe. Number three. The old Bible, the old fighting salvation, number two. The old music.

[39:10] Number three. That's where he's going to get you. That's where he gets you. I don't want any special singer to sing anything modern or new.

[39:22] I want the, I want Lisa, Lisa, I mean we need for her, however old she is. I want her to police this.

[39:34] I want people to, let Lisa know what they're planning to sing. She knows what I know. She knows what I want, what I don't want. And all you special singers, you take it to Lisa before you sing.

[39:45] some modern dude, this green guy, or this, this, this, patty woman, or, these people are all going to modern people.

[39:59] They've all gone modern. Stuff that, Bill Gaither wrote some of the best music you ever saw 20 years ago, 30 years ago. Not anymore. Not anymore.

[40:12] You can't sing modern, John. It's not the old path. I don't want anybody standing up here and singing some modern, contemporary music. God will punish us if we do that.

[40:26] Now let's ask for the old way. Check it out. What do you think? I appreciate it you do that. And as I say, grieving, that big church is on its way down.

[40:38] And I, and I hate to be a prophet. I hope I'm wrong. I hope somebody, you know what I want to say that you remember when we talked? The one that said, is God still a perfect guy you know, and all that.

[40:49] And he's such a nice man. You know what I want to say to him? I didn't feel like I had to write to do it. And I want to say, you know, you've got to do a hymn book put out by a tree or out by a tree.

[41:00] How much is your dream? Use it. Yeah. Throw everything else out and use your book. What I want to say, I could do it.

[41:13] Not my place, I think. Come in there as a visitor and tell him that somebody needs to tell him. Use your hymn book. The only way is hymn book.

[41:28] That's not very hard to understand, is it? Sing the old music. Live music. There's so many churches you go in and they put a tape on and start singing.

[41:45] I never have been born at that. I'm always going to miss it. God cannot bless that unless that group that made that recording is the right kind of people.

[41:57] If they're just good musicians and they put that together, you're playing that in church, God, I'm going to bless that. And we don't know what's behind all these things. So we just, when I came here, we just decided not to do that.

[42:12] Some of them may be okay, but just to be sure, every special song, we have here, somebody can do the best and the school. That's the old way. That's the, hey, I grew up in this stuff, man.

[42:24] I was going to a good old-fashioned church nine months from where I was born. My mother played piano. I sat with her until I was three years old and I said, I know what I'm talking about.

[42:38] That's the old way. I'm old. Like Chris said the other day, I was on a ladder and I cleaned my gutter down. Chris came to me, what are you doing, a preacher up on that ladder? I said, I'm good. He said, let me tell you something you don't know.

[42:50] You haven't, you don't know. You're old. You're dead. And I said, yeah, you're dead.

[43:03] But anyway, I got my gutters cleaned up. You did that for me. I'm old folks. I bet you don't know what you have. I know how they used to do it. My mother did it.

[43:15] We have a special song and somebody can play it. It's just the way it is. That's the old folks. I don't want to make you hot man. And I will be careful of music. Thank God for Scott Griffin.

[43:27] A young man that's got it right. You cannot go wrong with Scott Griffin. He already has songs on the financial institute. I'm thankful for that because music is where the devil gets in most, almost all churches.

[43:43] Let's move on. I've got one more. One more point. Ask for the old kind of church. The old kind of church.

[43:58] We're a little bit different than that church when I was sitting there. We dressed up different. The tithes back then were that white.

[44:13] And they came down to that view. And the lapels were that white. And people look front of you.

[44:25] Oh, they look stylish then. Now they look front of you. And all the women wear hats. Wear hats. Yeah, put it back on.

[44:37] Don't be afraid that's the old hat. I mean, we look a little different. But I can transport you right back there to Bethany Baptist Church out of the boy.

[44:48] And I can set you in the crowd and you feel right. Because the preacher got up and announced the old hymn number. The piano played it.

[45:00] He beat it. And we sang and it raised the roof. And then the preacher got up and preached like a house. Now we had this change.

[45:11] We had this change. We had two corners up here. Amen corners. Those are the little old. You think I'm the old guy that's older? The old mustache is drooled down.

[45:26] Cotton hair. I love to tell this. I tell this once in a while. My grandpa was on one side and the other grandfathers and the other priest would say and you'd just hear this boy sound like thunder.

[45:45] He'd come out of both these corners. He'd preach that man to death. Sticking. That's why I'd say sticking was a call. And then all scattered all over the crowd.

[45:56] Hey! There's my preaching. You'd feel right at home. Your sleepers would. Your sleepers would be at home. No, they wouldn't let you sleep. The singing or the amen or something or some usher might hit you in a white spot.

[46:14] They wouldn't let you sleep. But otherwise you'd be right at home. I'm talking about 70 years ago. Oh! You're in the 70 back here.

[46:28] That's the old way. Come on. Still do it like that? I still change it the way we have church. Hymns, not chords. One song later, not three or four with guitars.

[46:43] I'm not against the guitar. You can use those sometimes. Live music, soul winning blessings. Come on. Preaching services, not worship services.

[46:57] that is destroyed Baptist work. That is destroyed. I don't know who started that but somebody for the devil did a great work when he started probably worshiping.

[47:11] All you see and all you hear from Southern Baptist is we got to worship. We're going down to worship. You're not in here to worship. You're in here to get your high.

[47:23] That's what you are. You worship over your own time. Show me in the Bible where it is. I have been through that Bible on the word worship and it's always an individual matter.

[47:40] Worship means to love and adore God. You do that yourself. It's not a worship service, a preaching service. That's the old path. That's the old way. We're going to always have preaching.

[47:54] If we gather here we're going to have preaching. We're not going to say, well we're going to have Eastern Cantata next Sunday night to preach. Not here. Not here, brother. Well, we're going to show a film next Sunday night and preach.

[48:08] Not here. God didn't say, by the footage of the film, he didn't say, go on. He didn't say, by the footage of Cantata, God saved the law.

[48:19] He said, by the preaching.! Preach the word! That's what he said. Y'all are going.

[48:31] Well, just think. I'm going to play the church. If I can't lose your church, I'm going. If you don't care for your church, stay with it.

[48:43] Don't care, you'll lose it. Because brother, the devil is not going to all does as a wound. Just like he does as a wound. Preach it! Brother Howard, he comes to mind.

[48:57] He's a little boy. His daddy is going to say, he begged, begged, begged, begged, begged, begged, go to church. His daddy said, I don't go to church.

[49:25] He 10 years to go to church. He came in and sat down.

[49:36] My family ran up there. My daddy just couldn't wait. The preacher got up and said, we're not going to have preachers tonight. We got to cut top. my daddy slept with that stinking musical and went out the door and said, is that you church?

[49:54] I won't ever be back. The one chance I had to get my daddy saved and they didn't have preaching. And guys like Howard Stark are always going to have preaching.

[50:07] Always going to have preaching. God doesn't bless guitar like he can preach it. Red hot preach preaching against sin. You been in churches won't be able to stand here.

[50:21] I asked somebody one time about the preacher in church and see all preaching against him. Hey real Lord. Close is good for hearing your name and also.

[50:39] Otherwise name that brother. Call it sin. That's what it is. name it. Red hot preaching. We're going to preach on standards of holy people.

[50:54] I'm going to tell you what's wrong with Richard. You come over and hear the riches. At least I got 15 minutes on the riches.

[51:05] I don't know what happened. I think I was thinking about this sermon. I! Look, how many of you think I know what it's Bible to do?

[51:17] Three of you. That's good. I appreciate the comfort. before I ever hit a dead eye who stand on something uncomfortable.

[51:32] You can mark her down, but I burn my midnight oil and I check that thing out every way you can check. I don't preach it unless it's in that book.

[51:44] But if it is in that book, I do you that with it. And I know you're hungry And I am! I get through it. And this thing of riches came along in the 60s and it became controversial and I thought it's a fad and go away because women like the independence more more women went to work made their own money at the home accounts wasn't they worth riches where's rich as your family it became not bad and as I said in the 6,000 years of our history for 5,950 years the last 50 years have started putting on man the last 50 years are you so naive that you think the last 50 years are right the first 5,950 are gone

[53:07] I also think in the first woman on this earth God made her out of the first woman when she got saved she needed some clothes and anybody need to wear the clothes cover themselves up and God said let me put care of that for me and then I show what I want because I look good he took some animals got the skins off of them and made her through it long skirts put it on the only time God ever use his dress!

[53:54] I don't want to be that dress very good you don't have some of you ladies that dress like you supposed to out here because you know it be different but at home your cause you got lots of God your preacher knows what he's talking about I went to Bible college and I stood in Greek language so I could see what was that don't make me smarter than anybody else it makes me know a little bit more about the background and when God said women should dress in modest peril guess what might mean it means high enough long enough loose enough and thick enough so that the female form is not shown that's what it means modest but oh that next word parallel I tell you what the

[54:54] Greek word is look it up it is a long skirted garment there are five places in the Bible where it talks about riches all five men clothes I mean I don't know I know it's controversial I know you get mad I know I know I try to keep a church on the old path that's where I know and if enough of go there and stay with it do it we might have to have it one of the days I don't want to make you mad I don't think you're in second class I don't think that I don't think that way you just haven't been taught you haven't learned yet you can't you can't you can't impart to it keep on come in here as long as you want to

[56:19] I will never treat you different than those of you that come and have to go and I love you just as much I'm just as grateful for you the Holy Spirit he's got his own time he can't tell me what he's there is time I guess I don't see what stop no I don't see blame blame blame the old kind of church is blame for respect for Jesus you don't have to dress up but dress the best you can't respect Jesus that much boy I don't like people to church when preacher comes out the pole I think that's disrespectful yeah stress the best you can't be sure it's clean and then out of each we have to go out and get glasses that's an old glass of church all right

[57:25] I! You talk this thing
