We all can feel a part

of his wondrous love!

All you've got to do

is get in touch with it and go with it!

Go with it and feel his joy!

Go with it,

and feel a part of God!

Then you've got your negative forces

on the ropes,

and it's going down for the count!

Only a matter of time

before God is in your corner,

going to blows for you!

It's only a matter of time

before sadness and sickness

is going down for the final count!

Some, some, someday soon,

someday soon

each and every one of us

will see our demons going down

for the final count!

Someday soon,

each and every one of us

will see our own personal devils

going out for the final count!

Someday soon,

each and every one of us will step

to the center of the arena of our souls!

Clasp our hands

above our heads in victory!

In victory!

Murderer! Murderer!

Murderer!

In victory! Victory!

Ha-ha-ha-ha!

And with the holy help

of the Holy Spirit,

I fought my way back!

Yes, I said

I fought my way back

against the evils and the demons,

and now I am victorious!

I am victorious!

With the help and the grace of God!

- Just say amen now!

- Amen!

You're a fake and a phony!

You wasn't even a decent fighter!

You're a fake!

Let the poor soul go.

Let him go!

This man's got enough chains.

Come.

You see this poor soul?

This is you and me.

Are you all right?

Get him out of here.

- Liar! Liar!

- Young man?

Young man?

Thank you.

I don't know your name.

Ike. Isaac Hendricks.

Isaac.

This is my daughter, Roberta,

and my brother, Theotis.

I hope you come back again. I...

I feel I know you.

Perhaps our souls are connected.

I will.

I will come back very soon.

I hope so... Isaac.

Good name.

- The car's waiting.

- See you again soon, Ike.

Goodbye, children.

Goodbye, children.

- Bye-bye.

- Same to you.

'You said

you was gonna leave Elija.'

'You're a fool.'

'You was comin' with me!'

'What kind of money?'

'More than Elija gives you.'

'Oh, come on. You could

never give me what Elija gives me.

'And if you don't stop,

I'll tell him that baby isn't his.

'And he'll kick you out in the street.'

'If you do, I'll kill you.'

'You fool.'

'Oh, God!'

Ike, I was so worried about you.

You're drunk. Why?

I called up the garage.

Nobody knew where you were.

I thought you had an accident.

You coulda called to say you were OK...

B*tch! I hate you.

Quit flappin' your goddamn gums.

What the hell is the matter with you?

Are you crazy?

How dare you talk to me like I'm some

kind of common sissified n*gger wimp.

- What is this sh*t, anyway?

- Don't nobody talk to me like that!

Especially no b*tch ho like you!

Teach you to f*** with me!

I ought to put your ass out

in the goddamn street.

You're crazy. Get...

Get...

Teach her to f*** with me.

Goddamn, Chris!

Silly-ass ho! Hm!

Silly-ass b*tch!

F*** with me.

Stop f***in' with me!

Chris... honey...

I don't remember

doing any of those things.

I woke up this morning,

you were gone.

And you don't remember?

Well, that's funny, because, uh...

...you were so drunk, I'm surprised

you even remember your name.

Ike, you, uh...

You beat me up.

'You cursed me.'

And you threw me out

of the apartment.

Chris...

I don't know what to say.

I don't see how I could...

Oh, honey, listen...

I'm sorry. Please forgive me.

She won't talk to you?

Yeah...

She blew in last night

like she had the devil on her tail.

She was all hysterical.

Took hours to calm her down.

I'm flippin' out.

I'm f***in' flippin' out.

I don't even remember.

Maybe I should see a shrink.

I mean, I'm crackin' up, man.

I blacked out.

Man, you don't need no shrink,

and you ain't crackin' up.

You under a lot of pressure,

and last night you got your head bad

and let off some steam.

- That's bullshit!

- Hey, Ike.

Christella is gonna be back, man.

I think it's a good thing

to go upside of a woman's head

when she starts handing you lip.

Believe it or not, they like that.

Hey, man, honest to God.

You have got to go into your n*gger act

on 'em every once in a while.

They gonna push you

till you show 'em where the lines are.

You know something, man?

It's pretty encouraging

that you did what you did.

Now, as long as I've known you,

you've always seemed to be,

you know, sorta repressed.

Well, last night,

you got tow-up and let it all out.

That's fantastic, man.

I don't know.

I do know...

that my baby says I beat her up,

and I don't even remember.

Don't worry about it.

She's gonna be back.

Chris, your folks are really

worried about you.

They called and asked me

to talk to you.

This guy could be dangerous.

Ike is not dangerous.

Now, he is going through a thing.

He needs time

to get his head together.

- So do I. That's why I left.

- You don't call that dangerous?

This looks worse than it is.

I thought you didn't like violent cats.

I thought that turned your stomach.

I don't understand you.

Let's not start in on that, Carl,

because it wasn't about that.

Then what was it about?

Now, look, my parents didn't call you

because you're a friend.

They called you

because you are a cop.

They blew this whole thing

out of proportion.

Now, your being my ex-husband

doesn't give you any right

to come back into my life.

I told them I would keep an eye on Ike.

All right, it's for you.

You just don't stop loving someone.

I wanna make sure

he's as cool as you think.

OK?

Girl, would you stop

thinking about that man?

- I can't help it, Phyllis.

- It won't do you any good.

I know.

Chris!

How you doing, baby?

Uh...

Speak of the devil.

Sooner we talk about this thing,

sooner we get it straightened out.

I guess I don't have much choice, do I?

Phyllis.

Um...

About, um, uh, uh, uh...

the other night...

I need you.

Chris...

Baby, something's happening to me

and I don't know what it is.

I've never felt this lost before

in my life, baby.

I don't know what's happening.

I know I... I did something foul to you.

I said some foul things.

I'm sorry, baby.

Ah...

I want you to come back to me, Chris.

It's hard, Ike.

I'm just as confused as you are.

Now, your head is in a bad place

for whatever reason.

You beat me up,

and yet you say you don't remember.

- I don't remember. Chris...

- That's not the point.

Now, how can I be sure

it won't happen again?

I do love you, Ike.

And I want to see you

get this thing cleared up, but I...

Oh, God.

I'm sorry, baby.

No, no, I'm sorry.

Goodbye, Ike.

I'll give you a call and, um...

- Good evening, church.

- Good evening, Reverend.

Ha-ha. And it is a good evening

with all you good brothers and sisters

here tonight.

And we gonna try and make it

a little bit better, all right?

- 'Amen, now.'

- 'Amen!'

'Faith is the evidence

of things hoped for.

'Faith is the evidence

of things unseen.'

- You a big boy now, you can take it.

- You think I'm gonna take it, huh?

I'm gonna take you to the killing floor,

and I'll cut you every kind of way!
