The Apostle Page #10

That cruel tree.

He died so we could be saved.

It's free but it ain't cheap.

Am I right here this evening?

Glory be to God on high.

- Somebody give me an amen.

- Amen.

Glory be to God on high.

Let me ask you something.

- Do you want it? I know I want it.

- I want it.

Once you've felt 300 or 400 volts

of the Holy Spirit, you're going to want it.

Do you want to get plugged in?

Do I hear somebody say "amen"?

- Amen.

- You might get three in the one.

The Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost.

That's a mighty hot charged baptism!

If you want it, go for it. Be saved.

If God sent his only son, it's worth it.

- You want to be on the Devil's hit list?

- No!

- Then you'd better get on Jesus' mailing list.

- Yes!

Put all the elements of the Devil behind you.

Work on it.

Get rid of the combined satanic forces

and get right with God here tonight.

This ain't no petty subject.

This is the Holy Ghost power!

Get the Holy Ghost power

and the Holy Ghost explosion.

We're going to short-circuit the Devil tonight.

You Devil get behind me. You stay there.

You stay there. You stay there, Devil.

You stay there.

Oh, my, my, my...

We're going to be with Jesus tonight.

Oh, my, my, my...

We're going to be with Jesus tonight.

- Say, "We're going to be with Jesus tonight. "

- We're going to be with Jesus tonight.

Let those people on Pecan Island hear you.

We're going to be with Jesus tonight.

Sh... sh... sh... sh...

Sh... sh... sh... sh...

Look at these beautiful little hands.

Look at them.

Imagine a nail piercing the palm

of this child's hands.

Then picture the nails going in an old board.

If you were to take two boards

and nail them together?

I don't have that much love in me

to do this to my son. Do you?

I don't have that much love in me.

- But God does.

- Amen.

God does.

Bless you. Thank you.

Put your hand over your heart, with the other

hand reach out and touch somebody.

The Holy Ghost can and will enter you,

but there's another side of this issue.

On the other side of the Holy Ghost explosion

is a still small voice,

the still small voice of Jesus within you,

in your heart,

talking to you, leading you.

This powerful quiet force

can penetrate the most callous

and hard-hearted atheist you'd want to meet.

The only place that the still and small voice

of Jesus Christ can't enter

is into the heart of any man or woman

who says, "No, you cannot come in. "

"You cannot enter here... tonight. "

- I ain't going to say that.

- Lordy.

- Lordy.

- Amen.

I want every head bowed, every eye closed.

If anyone wants to come forward

and accept our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ

as his personal saviour, let him do so now.

- Once you're saved, it's a done deal.

- Oh, yes.

Can you say, "I'm ready tonight?"

For any mother, son or daughter who wants it,

it's here tonight.

Jesus is here. It's a one-way road to heaven.

Jesus is waiting.

And the Holy Ghost conductor

is calling, "'Board! All aboard!"

d Softly and tenderly, Jesus is calling

d Calling for you and for me

d See all the portals

He's waiting and watching

d Waiting, oh, sinner come home

d Come home, come home

d Ye go where thee come home

d Preciously, tenderly, Jesus is calling d

Sammy, my heart's broke for joy tonight,

Sammy.

My heart's broke for joy.

Come here, son.

You've come to accept the Lord Jesus Christ

as your personal saviour?

Are you ready to follow and accept him

at this very instant?

He's ready for you.

Saint Paul says any man

who accepts Christ as his saviour is a saint.

You're a saint here tonight, Sammy.

You're going to heaven.

I'm going to jail. You're going to heaven.

- I love you, son.

- I love you, too.

Glory be to God on high.

Let's give the Lord God on high

a big handclap.

We have a new member of Christ in our midst.

d... come home

d Preciously, tenderly, Jesus is calling

d Calling for you and for me d

Glory. We love you.

How many believe I preached here tonight?

- Yeah!

- Glory.

I'm going to have to leave you now.

Satan is calling me into the arena

one more time.

I may never see you much more again,

but I love you one and all.

I just want to say before I leave,

I've told you in the past,

some people get on the aeroplane,

they fly to Jackson, Mississippi.

Others fly to London, England,

some to Chicago, some to Dallas, Fort Worth.

But I've got my own little aeroplane.

Some day, I'm going down that runway.

I'm not going to Jackson, Mississippi,

to Philadelphia or London, England.

I'm going yonder to heaven and I'm going

to say, "Get out of the way, moon. "

"I'm on my way to heaven. "

You're under arrest for first-degree murder

at Fort Worth.

You have the right to remain silent.

Anything you say may be used against you.

You have the right to an attorney. If you can't

afford one, one will be appointed. Understand?

- Yes, sir.

- Place your hands on the car, sir.

Spread your legs for me?

Place your right hand behind your back.

Sammy, the jewellery's for the church.

Take it in to Reverend Blackwell.

- Yes, sir.

- Keep the church going as long as we can.

Sammy, go back in there

where you're needed.

- My Bible's for you, son. That's for you.

- Watch your head, sir.

- You are Euliss F Dewey, aren't you?

- Don't say that name too loudly.

Yes, sir. I'm your man.

I'm also the Apostle EF, but I'm your man.

I'm from a long line of Deweys.

My granddaddy was Black Jack Dewey,

a professional blackjack player,

a card sharp, before he got saved.

I didn't think you still drove Fords. I thought

you'd switched to Chevys like in Texas.

Maybe it's the other way round. Well...

Right to remain silent?

Seems like I always got something to say.

I do a lot of talking.

- Before Abraham was who?

- Jesus.

- Who was our alpha and omega?

- Jesus.

Yea, though I walk through the valley,

who walks with me?

- Jesus!

- Who lays down with me?

Jesus!

- If I ascend to heaven, who will I talk to first?

- Jesus!

- Who is our heavenly father's son?

- Jesus!

- Who was sent on Earth to save us?

- Jesus!

- Who is my Lord and saviour?

- Jesus!

- He is our what?

- Jesus!

- Again!

- Jesus!

- One more time.

- Jesus!

- If I walk down the street, who walks with me?

- Jesus!

In New York City,

who'll I meet in Times Square?
