God bless you. Remember, Brother Walter Wade, the broadcast today, and Brother Lonnie Hollis, and Brother Major Sean Martin over in Cedartown, and Brother Major Jimmy Bailey and family, Brother Jimmy Pastor with Memorial Baptist in the Tower. He's got a good church, and he's got a good pastor. You keep up the work, Brother Jimmy. And Brother Major Marlon Greenwood over in Anniston, Alabama, and Brother Major Eunice Ways in Charlotte. And remember Brother Major Otis Lovell. In the broadcast today, we're remembering the family of Judge Wayne Mormont. God bless these people. A touching event that brought us together. We're remembering Lady Sonja Massey for her birthday. And I remember what I'll tell you along the birthday of the King. One day you have a laughter. And you can't call one back either. They come and go as they come. We've never got a Robert O. before in the broadcast. And this is Ralph Barclay. May the good Lord bless you. What are we singing? When the redeemed are gathered at night. I am thinking of the rapture and our blessed home. I'm with the redeemed. When the redeemed are yet redeemed, I will rise and lay out the wings I've seen. When the redeemed are yet redeemed, When the redeemed are yet redeemed, I will shout, I will sing, when the redeemed are yet redeemed. Then the taxman will be honored to prepare the banquet for when the redeemed are yet redeemed. Forgive, redeem, and we'll hear his endless passion, by reflection of the Lord. Forgive, redeem, forgive, redeem, forgive, redeem. Hey, man, what a day that's going to be. We sent a broadcast out this morning to meet the Robert champion. His face is vacant up here, the champion. This is Louise Fillmore, she's 80, and she's had a rough time with her health. This is a better day, thank God, a better place. This is Richard Bryant, and this is Russell Bellamy. We remember Jim and Penny Hargrove, the children. God bless you. She's off up in St. Louis. Hobnob in the back. We remember Miss Annie Mae Strange and Mrs. Sue. May the good Lord bless you today. And that brother, Mrs. Clay, Mrs. Dix, Mrs. Famit. Brother Neeson is going to be up at Blue Water Baptist Church in Lower Edna, Tennessee through Wednesday. God bless you. I hope you have a great meeting with Brother Meade and Howard Westmoreland and their church. May the good Lord bless you. And we were all at the nursing home when they shut in this morning. What are we singing, Brother Meade? I'd like to send this song out to Miss Brown. We spent some time with her yesterday as she gave us some flowers, but just the things that the Lord Jesus Christ done for us, and that alone allows us to go to heaven, and that's because we believe. Just suppose God searched through heaven and couldn't find one willing to be the supreme sacrifice that was needed. To buy eternal life for you and me. Oh, had it not been for a place called Mount Calvary. Had it not been for the old rugged cross, had it not been for a man called Jesus, then forever I'm so glad he was willing to drink his bitter cup. Father let it pass from me. I'm so glad he didn't call heaven's angel. From my hand pulls the nails that torment me. Had it not been for a place called Mount Calvary. Had it not been for the old rugged course. Had it not been for a man called Jesus, then forever my soul would belong. Amen. As soon as I dedicate this, my prayer is going to beat your heart. I miss him when he's not here. I told him he ought to come every Sunday morning, but he don't do it. But you have to love him anyhow. We have an announcement here we want to deliver to you. Community-wide gospel singing at Crawford City Park. In case of rain, it will be at Victor Baptist on County Road 480, October the 7th, from 1 to 3 p.m. Special singing, the Cash Family of Corporal, Sweet Harmony of Boys, Crystal Gadsden, Hugh Grace of Corporal, Amy Harris of 5th, Regina Leath of Corporal. Refreshments will be available at drawer to me. Bring your lawn chairs and enjoy. Take your umbrellas in case it rains. That's my advice. That's not on there, I just thought about that. Thought maybe it might be a wise person to carry your umbrellas. Brother Cook, I love the Lord and thank the Lord for saving me. And in form of announcement, I'd like to announce our Pastor Appreciation Day will be on October the 28th. And this is Brother Cook's day. We're going to honor him. And we've got some visiting preachers lined up to come and preach that day. And he'll just get to sit and listen to the Word of the Lord and enjoy what the Scripture says. And if you want to send him a card or letter, his address is 134 First Street in Albertville. And this morning, our Sunday school will start at 945. And if you'll get up and get ready and get your milking done, you can come on to Sunday school. And we'd just, well, it'd be a joy to see you there. And maybe you hadn't ever made that a part of your Sunday worship, but you should do that. There's a class for all ages, so we'll be looking for you. God bless your heart. Greg, I train you in direction. It's good to be here this morning. I love the Lord. You know, I was over there thinking, just singing that song about how good the Lord is to me. And it's just, when you start thinking about how good the Lord is to you, it overwhelms you because you find out that He does so much for you. the little things the big things you get counting and you think boy if it wasn't for him where would i be because he's always in everything you do seem like everything that's good give him the credit for because it's him he's the one that's there he's the one that's doing it for you if you don't know him you can he don't want to leave nobody behind i'm not special because i know him You're able to know him, too. All you have to do is accept him. But we have a training unit every Sunday night at 5.30, and we'd love to have you come be part of it. Okay, you ladies. Brother Cook, I want to send the broadcast out to Alton and Betty Brock. He's having a trying time to continue to pray for him. And also Miss John and Brother Andy, we miss them around here. And I'd like to tell the Cash family how much I enjoyed that singing last night. It was so thrilling, and what I enjoyed about it, I know what they were singing about, and they felt it in the heart, and the Holy Spirit connected up with me, and it just made the chill bumps run up and down the spine of my avenues of my soul and I'm thankful that brothers and sisters can get together and have a good make. Yeah, God bless you. I can truly say I enjoyed the singing last night and I seen people there that worked where I did and told me they listened every Sunday but I couldn't call her name and I didn't want to ask her. So anyway she knows who I'm talking about and what a blessing it was to be at Antioch last night. I just got a A double portion of a blessing last night, and the Lord sure is good to us, and remember me when we pray. I'm going to thank him for letting me be here one more time. Without him, I'd be nothing. He's with me every day, and he gives me a great day, and he blesses me with health, and I'm always going to give him thanks. I just want to thank him for as blessed a week as he's let me have. Johnny, come right here. It's a pleasure to be here this morning. I too want to thank the Cash family for coming out and singing for us last night. They were hindered and had a couple of their singers sick that couldn't be there. But I appreciate them coming. A lot of groups would have called you at the last minute and said we can't make it. But they come on, they honor their commitment, and that's because they love the Lord, and they're singing for Him. I appreciate that. I appreciate that we didn't have a large crowd, but I appreciate the ones that did come. And we had a good time. The Spirit was there, and that's what makes it all. You pray for us when you pray. I love the Lord this morning, and please pray for me when you pray. I thank the Lord that he has blessed me with the opportunity to be here. Senator, we are thanking this morning. The disciples told Jesus that when shall these times be, or what shall be assigned to these times? He said there will be war and rumors of war, earthquakes, famine. and everything like that. You can turn the television on today, and that's all you see. That's all that's on there. But I don't know that this is the time for Christ to come. Only God knows when His time comes. One day He'll give us on the trumpet, and He'll step out on that cloud, glory to God, and we'll all be gathered on the other side forever and forever. And I loved Him this morning. Get out of that corner over there. Brother Cook, it's good to be here this morning like to say, I love the Lord. Thank Him for many blessings. And I thought of several songs. Count your blessings. Name them one by one. There's no way we could do that. Or I can't do it. You might can. But I can't count my blessings one by one. There are so many of them. The Lord just let me get up this morning. And that's the greatest blessing I know of right now. God bless your heart. Brother T, we're glad to see you out of the hospital. I sure am glad the Lord saved me, and I'm thankful that the Lord was willing to die that we could be saved. But there's a lot of folks that won't have it. They're falling after a false religion. Any religion that leaves out Christ as the true Son of God can only take you to the region of the damned. There's only one name given under heaven whereby a man must be saved, and that's the Lord Jesus Christ. God bless your heart. Our midweek service is Wednesday at 6.30. And we have a prayer service each Friday at 6 o'clock. I appreciate the service last night. And you that wasn't there, just a blessing. The folk love the Lord. Not a mess of foolishness, they love the Lord. And that man had the sticks in his hand. I don't know his name, but he sure can handle it. When I'm going to slip out of his hand one of these days, he'll hit somebody. And I imagine his wife's got somebody in the room. Who was? His wife must have a bigger stick than he's got. I think that kind of teaches us to keep it under control over there. God bless every one of you. Let's sing a couple of verses of Amazing Grace this morning. It's the greatest song I guess that's ever been written. It is still amazing. What the grace of God has done is doing it with you. Look now, I'm found. Look wide, look now, I see. Good grief, it's hard to tell what's here by shining at a glance. What a day that's going to be in a city where there won't be no night. in the city where there will be no doctors called for sickness, where there will be no sick folks up there. In Romans chapter 14, I'd like to call your attention to Scripture, beginning at verse 8. For whether we live, we live under the Lord. Whether we die, we die under the Lord. Whether we live therefore or die, we are the Lord. For this is the end. For through this end, to rest in Christ both, died and rose, and revived, that we might be, Lord, both of the dead and the living. But one day, there's a day coming when people are going to face the one that died, like a criminal, the people who go to hell. And the Holy Spirit has dealt with your heart so many, many times. I preach to people every Sunday morning that don't lose the Lord. The Lord loves you, but one day you could call and he'll pay no attention to you. That's what the scripture says. God help you today. If you're not saved, just push everything aside and get on your knees and ask God to save you. If you can't get on your knees, put it on the side of the road and stop rolling up. Ask God to come into your heart. I wouldn't advise you to try to drive, for if you was under conviction as deep as I was, the night I got saved, I couldn't have seen how to drive. It looked like every split second I'd be in hell. But all of a sudden, there's peace come to my heart. And I haven't got over it yet, and I've been trying to tell people what it done for me will do for them. But some will believe it, some won't believe it. That's the way it was with Christ's warfare. Some believed that he was the Son of God, and some believed that he wasn't the Son of God. But it didn't change the situation. He was the great I Am. He's still the great I Am. He was the first and the last. He's still the first and the last. He is the way, the only way. There's not another name on heaven given whereby men can be saved except the Lord Jesus Christ. And I'm glad He came. The Bible says, For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord. Every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. One day, people were praying. I don't find any record in the Bible in Luke chapter 16. I don't know what age man he was, but God didn't get his attention until he got in hell, and he still got it. He still got his attention. He might not get it now. You can turn your radio off. You can turn the pusher off. You can turn the singing off. You can turn Godly living away from you, turn your back on the best. You can wind up in a place called hell. And you're the one that choose to go there. And thank God you won't go to heaven unless you choose to go. Everybody's not going to heaven. Jesus told Nicodemus, you must be born again. Just as soon as you're born, To get into this world, to get into that world, you've got to get born again. It's just like a new, it is a new life. Praise God's great name. It's new and it's old and it's old and it's new. Thank God, it's the most traumatic thing that's ever been, is for somebody to be saved by the marvelous grace of God. But yet it's a simple thing that a child can understand, enough to get in. Praise His great name today. The Lord fixed it, for you could get in today. Don't die, Lord. One day, whether the Lord comes before then or not, one day you're going to breathe the last breath. One day you're going to get up the last time. One day you're going to sleep the last night. One day it's going to be over. Then what's going to be the end of your life? You think about it. It could be It's very early in life. Just recently there's been some teenage kids that ought to be the Lord. You don't know when you're going to leave here. And I want to tell you something this morning. If I knew I'd go live a thousand literal years on Earth, I'd want every minute of it to be for Jesus. That's how much I like it. That's how much I appreciate it. The peace that passes all understanding. When the storms are raging on the outside, all around you, deep inside you can have peace to know that one day we're going to be with the Lord. Oh God, help us today to get our hearts ready to meet Him. The Bible says, every knee is going to bow, every tongue is going to confess. You're going to be there and you won't be lame. You won't be brave and you won't be stubborn either. You won't have to move. Nobody will have to beg you to pray. Every knee's going to bow. Every tongue's going to confess. Not one's going to be left out. People say there's no such a thing as heaven or hell. You're going to find out. And I believe any sensible person knows there is. Praise God's great name. Just to look at the element to know that God is still in control. We don't understand a lot of His ways. Our uncertainty and judgment is a way to pass finding out. We don't know what the mind of God is. But we do know that the Lord Jesus came into the world to save sinners. Paul said, of whom I am chief. God bless you this morning. If you're not saved, get saved. Stay true for brother Hayes. That's the part of us that we need to ask this morning. The preceding program has come to you live from my studios of WAVU. The Antioch Baptist Church with Pastor Raymond Cook. Be sure to join us again next Sunday morning at the same time. And we want to dedicate it to everybody out there that's listened to Brother Cook over the years. And not just listen to the way we sing it, but listen to the words of this song. I hope it bless you. It says, oh come, angel band. I live. My strongest triumph ever can my triumph Come drink to that. Come dance around me sad. Oh, carry me away on your snowy wings to my people. He's my only friend. I know I'm ne'er equal. He remains a friend to me every day. The poor hornet takes the throne. Sing, does he dare? I've almost gained my head. Oh, my spirit lies. And, Lord, I'll raise your band from the land around me grand. And there'll be a ray of your soul. We wait till my immortal home. Okay, man, not many folks will sing with me, but Kenneth does it all the time.
