All right, I'm looking in the book of Joshua chapter 1 tonight. If you're going to be in the house of God, go ahead and try to say something under the Word of God. We're going to make a good announcement today. Remember now, next Florida State, there will be homecoming service. There will be a preaching at 10 o'clock. Brother James Johnson from the Latin Baptist Church will be with us, a good man. Then on 11 o'clock service, Brother Pace will be here, and then after the service we'll go out to the Fellowship Building and have a good covered dish meal. And so we look for you to be here, and then invite somebody this coming week to the meeting when we start. And then on Sunday evening through Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday we'll be having revival meetings. And so pray for that, that God would meet with us. We need God to meet with us, and we sure appreciate what God does for us. So remember this in prayer, if you will. And then also, I want to make mention, too, that I got some tracts back there. Folks would get some and put them in the back of the church or somewhere where the envelopes are in the other building, and all of them are the same. It's Charles Bergen's testimony of how he got saved. And then, too, a portion of his last message he preached got the name of the church on the back and phone numbers. But it's just a good thing to give somebody, let them read it, maybe awaken them to the fact they need God. It'll take the power of God, and I still believe preaching, amen. God chose the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe, amen. But how shall they hear? I'm not a preacher. I know all that. The Word of God still has power to maybe give light to somebody, to bring them into the house of God. And too, it's an instrument that you use an open door if you might witness to them of the good things of God. In Joshua chapter 1 tonight, the Bible said, now after the death of Moses, the servant of the Lord, It came to pass that the Lord spake unto Joshua, the son of Nun, Moses' minister, saying, Moses, my servant, is dead. Now therefore, arise, go over this Jordan, bowing all this people unto the land, which do I give to them, even to the children of Israel. And every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have I given unto you, as I said unto Moses, from the wilderness and this Lebanon, even unto the great river, the river Euphrates, and all the land of the Hittites, and unto the great sea, toward the going down of the sun shall be your coast. There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life, as I was with Moses." So I will be with thee. I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee. Be strong and of good courage, for unto this people shalt thou divide for an inheritance of land, which I swear unto their fathers, to give thee of them. Only be thou strong and very courageous, that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law. which moves, as my servant commanded thee, turn not from the right hand or to the left, but that thou mayest prosper whithersoever thou goest. This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth, but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein. For then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of good courage, be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed. For the Lord thy God is with thee, whithersoever thou thou goest." Here God's writing to Joshua after Moses is dead, speaking to him. And Moses was, of course, a great man, a meek man, a man that gave the law unto the nation of Israel. And then after Moses died, Joshua was the one that came. The word Joshua is the same New Testament word we get our name Jesus from, which simply means Jehovah's Saved. You see, the law couldn't save, but thank God Jesus can. And we look at the Scripture tonight here, and I just read a few verses, and I thought about Joshua this afternoon, how he was a great man, how God used him. My old priest and I have got to help me just a little while on the marks of a true soldier, of the marks of a true soldier. I believe that Joshua had marks in his own life and evidence that he was a true soldier for the Lord God. It took a man, thank God. How many times did God say, be a man and be very courageous, be strong because of the things that you face as a leader of these people. I mean, you take it about being a leader. Brother, there was over two million Jews, thank God, that started out. Now, some of this crowd, has died off in the wilderness after 40 years of wandering, and now Moses has died, and now Joshua takes over the group of people that's matured and grown up under that ministry. And now after Moses has led them 40 years, here comes Joshua. Hey, it's not easy to come in and step in them kind of shoes. A man like Moses, I mean, great man, thank God that had and the grace of God and the glory of God on him. But Joshua comes along. You know, this generation's going to die off and there's going to have to be another one to take the mantle and go forward. And it ought to be one of us tonight, thank God it says. By the help of God, I want to be what God wants me to be and be a soldier for the Lord. But there's some things tonight it'll take for a man to be what God wants him to be as a soldier. in the army of God. Did not Paul tell Timothy, ain't God to be a good soldier of the Lord Jesus Christ? And a soldier is somebody that's fierce, amen. That's not anybody to be a soldier. But here we find some true marks of one. I want to say first of all, that I said Joshua to be a good soldier, he had to be a follower, amen. You see, he followed Moses, the Bible said. Right here he was Moses' minister. He always followed the man of God. He went with him. And he learned some things from the man of God. He learned, brother, I tell you, you'll never be a leader until you're a follower first. Hey, hey, God says to follow. And we need to follow God. Follow the right way. And follow my friend in the Scots faith. Amen. God even said about the man of God, whose faith follow. Thank God that's what's going to fall tonight. is the faith of the Son of God. And I want to say you'll never be a leader, you'll never be a soldier for God until you learn to follow, until you learn to take instruction, until you learn to obey, until you learn to go the way God says go. It's not your way, it's God's way. And Joshua had to learn that. He followed the man of God, Moses, and it turned into something good afterwards. Of the cause, after he followed, he became a leader. Amen. There's steps in getting to where you are in God. That's right. I understand, though, that some people mature faster than others. And some people get there faster than others. But there's a process God brings everybody through to be a true soldier. And that's following instructions of a captain. Amen? And Jesus is the captain of our salvation. And if a man's not willing to be faithful to the truth and call on God, he'll never be a good soldier. Hey friend, you know who the captain wants to be a good... ain't God on the field for him? Somebody that listens to him. Somebody that obeys Him. Hey, in the service, and I never have been in it, but I know this for a true fact. If a man don't listen to the authority that's over him, he can't be used. He wants a man to come under subjection and submission under the authority that's over him. And a man that don't ever come of that, he'll never be a soldier because he'll be outside the orders of the captain. I'm glad I got a good chapter tonight. I'm glad God's letting me follow some good godly men down through the years that's taught me a lot about the things of God. Hey, it wasn't me, my friend, it was God. And I'm just saying tonight, if you get in line with somebody, get in line with somebody that's got faith in God, obey them and go after God with them, that's what Joshua did, and you'll have to do that if you're going to be a good soldier of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen. Brother, we got a lot of people saying what they ought to be doing. Amen. But we don't have a whole lot of followers. That's right. If you're going to be a soldier, you've got to learn to follow. Amen. Ma'am, you've got to learn to follow your husband if you want to be a good, a godly woman. Amen. That's exactly right. Thank God, young people, if you want to follow God, you've got to follow Mom and Dad. That's right. God set it up like that, didn't He? He set the husband as the head of the wife. The wife and the husband walk really hand in hand. under the lead of God, and then they're having other children that they should follow them. That's the way God set it up. God don't have two heads in anything. He's got one head, and He is the head. Amen. And I'll tell you this, He's got the head, thank God, in everything. He's got a head. I ain't got in the home. He said the husband is the head. of the wife, and he's got a head. I ain't got over children, that's the parents are. And in the house of God, he's got a man of God that oversees what God's to put together. That it might be spiritual, it might be right in the house of God. He's got that way you go to the workplace. I dreamed it this week, God said you to obey them, amen? Not as men-pleasers, but service of God. But you might be doing it hardly unto God, not unto men. But for God said, you'll be rewarded for doing it unto me. Hey, there's always authority. If a man's going to do anything for God, he's got to follow directions and follow the leadership that's before him. If he don't learn to follow, he never will be a leader. Amen. You know what Joshua did? Joshua followed the man of God. You take Elisha, Elisha followed Elisha. Amen? Timothy followed Paul. All through the Scripture we find, thank God, where men followed. You're going to have to learn to follow tonight. If you're going to be a good soldier, that's how you learn. It's follow, thank God, the right. And go after God, my friend. I'm saying if you're going to be a good soldier, you're going to have to be a follower. Amen. I'm not talking about following the wrong thing, neither. I'm talking about following what's in this book. If I tell you something contrary to this book, don't you follow it. Amen. You follow what's in this book. And I need to get right with God. Amen. If I'm not following this book tonight. Amen. That's right, brother. I'm talking about follow, thank God, the right. Follow, God's ordained a man of God. It said obey them that have the rule over you. Submit yourselves for they watch for your souls. Amen. That they might do it with joy, not with grief, for that would be improbable for you in the day of judgment. Amen. That's right, brother, God's got that ordained authority. To set it up like that, that he might, thank God, lead the people the way he wants them to be led. And so in finding that, you got to be a follower if you're going to be a good soldier. Moses was the man of God, and when he died, Joshua took over, who was Moses' minister. I'll say this, you've got to have faith to be a good soldier. I mean, you look at Joshua tonight, he believed God. When the report came back, when Moses sent out twelve spies to spy the land, and they come back, ten of them said, oh, look how big they are. them that were grasshoppers in their sight. And I tell you, they got scared and got fearful. And here's old Joshua and Caleb stepping up. And Joshua said, God doesn't set his fire alight. And he believed the report. But God said not what they said. He knew God doesn't give them that land. He said, but please God, He'll give it to us. You can't go with God and be a good soldier unless you have faith. I'm telling you, he believed God the way he said it would be. But if you don't get in with God tonight, my friend, I'm telling you, there's faith. There's training in it, brother. And I'm just saying tonight, he learned some things by following and by faith. Amen. Listen, he learned some things in the tabernacle. He learned that you worship God by faith and by the Holy Ghost and truth. And the Bible said the glory of God filled the tabernacle where they were. And the Bible said a young man by the name of Joshua departed not. And the tabernacle, everybody left the tabernacle, went back to their tent. It said Joshua just stayed around where God was. He learned some things in a tabernacle experience. I'll tell you, friend, there's been some times around the house of God in my person of worship, But I've learned some things about this standard. That's what God said. Hey, hey, it'll teach you some things. If you're going to be a gun soldier, you better learn. It's time to worship. Worship. Amen. That's right. You're going to leave here. Thank God you're my friend. I'll miss out if you don't worship. And you get back out in that battle. And what you do, you're dry and you're dead. You need some life in you. Life comes from worshiping God. That's right, Bangkok, you never know what might take place. or two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst, amen. You get in the prayer room and pray to God, you never know what'll go on. You never know when you get in the house of God to pray, what God might do. Hey, thank God, friend, you never know when God's gonna show up. Hey, can you tell when He is? I tell you, He shows up, thank God, when you don't expect it sometimes. And you learn that way. It's my faith. Hey, God, when we get together, brother, keep it. We can get here and pray tonight. We can shut the books right now and say, let's get around here and pray and get a hold of God. I tell you, this is a good place. Don't you take her for granted tonight. Hey God, if you got me a good soldier, you better learn that there's some things in the tabernacle or the house of God that God will teach you to learn and it might help you in the battle one day. That's right, thank God. He learned from the tabernacle, from the tablets of stone. He saw the finger writing of God on them things. He saw the man of God get from God. He learned them troughs, intestines, and then a crowd come back and said, we can't take the land. All the people's hearts melted like wax and feared. And thank God, Joshua stood up and said, God said it was ours. God says that's our land. Hey, hey, have faith. If you're going to fight the battle, you've got to believe God than that. You can't trust yourself that once you see, you're going to have to look to Him, amen. Thank God I'm not fighting a battle I can see. God's fighting a battle. But I understand that, but we're to stand tonight in the way and believe God. I can't see what's going to take place, but I do know by faith that praise God, God's going to take care of it. Amen. What God said, He said, Joshua, wherever you walk, I'm going to bless. Hey, that's kind of hard to believe God sometimes on some things because we're in this old place. But He said, wherever you walk, I'm going to bless it. I'm going to put my hand on it. I'm going to let the people know I'm with you. Hey, that's the whole thing, friend. It's a walk of faith. If you're going to be a good soldier, you're going to have to believe God tonight. Listen to this. You're going to have to learn to have faith, but you're going to have to be firm in what you believe. And this is the whole thing. If there's anything God put in Joshua, He said this, be strong and have good courage. In other words, don't you turn to the right hand toward the left. Be firm in the Word of God. Be firm in this book tonight, that's what he's saying. He said, what I told you don't, you don't have to fret. You don't have to be afraid of their faces. You don't have to worry what the people think. He said this story, boy, ain't you glad to thank God enough that the liberty of God's inobedience in what God says, it wouldn't matter if the whole world stuck their nose up at you. Thank God, I'm telling you, if you obey and God walking in the Word of God, there's joy in it. And there's victory, and you can be a good soldier. I'll tell you, some of the greatest times of my life. It's when I was going through a hard time, when persecution was a beating on my door, and God said, just keep obeying me. Just keep walking in the way of God. And God said, I'll bless. I want to say, if you're going to be a good soldier, you're going to have to be firm on the word of God. You're going to have to stand on it, friend. I'm telling you, you're not seeing. He said, be strong, obey the Lord God. Hey, don't turn from it. Don't turn from the right hand or to the left. That thou mayest prosper with us wherever thou goest. He said, concern these things. He said he wouldn't turn from it. I ain't got to just stay with it. It's still the way of God. The gospel's still the same. If you got to be a soldier, you better go with him, ain't you? That's right. Praise God. I feel good in my soul to go with God. I'd rather go with God than go with anybody else, wouldn't you? Amen. I will say this, too. I think God's Joshua is only affirming the book of God. He is affirming the blessing of God, knowing that it was him serving God. When he got to the end of his life, he looked at that crowd. He hadn't changed a leg. He said, I will tell y'all something. Hey, hey. He said, y'all served the gods on the other side of the flood. Hey, dead to them Amorites. All that other crowd served. He said, but it's for me and my house. We're going to serve the Lord. He said, you might as well go and choose this day. Whom are you going to serve? But it's for me and my house. We're going to serve the Lord. We're not going to chase after idolatry. We're not going after them old gods. He said, I've turned on it. I'll stand there, thank God, because that's the only thing that'll be blessed. Amen. Praise God. I'll tell you what we need restored tonight. And getting back to what we need to be. I'm talking about being firm tonight. On the gospel. Firm on the Bible. Firm on the truth of God. Firm in what we believe. I'll tell you, Joshua was a soldier. But he had to be firm. He wasn't my friend of wafer. He wasn't unstable in all his ways. He, my friend, was stable in what he believed. Thank God they didn't have to scratch their head and wonder. or whether Joshua's going to believe the book. He said, thank God, if you've got to go with God, you've got to obey the book. That's right, brother, you can't be right with God. Hey, people say, well, I'm a preacher, I'm this and that, they're unstable, don't even come to the house of God. Hey, hey, friend, what in the world's going on this day? What kind of company is that? What a man have I got up here to say, well, I don't even know if the Bible's true or not. Thank God I tell you, that's hypocrisy, that's liberalism, and it don't work on me. I want to tell you, I believe this is the word of God. I believe it's the book of God tonight, my friend. I believe it's the me from God tonight. I believe every bit of it. I believe God put it together. I believe it's God's word, not man's. I believe God let men pen it down under the Holy Ghost. But I'll tell you what, this is the book of Almighty God. I can tell you this. I got confidence that he is, and that's the only thing that'll work. Amen. You might as well stand firm on that, boys. Amen. Just be firm on the book. I tell this, I'm firm on the Baptist. That's right with God. That's right. Thank God. I'm not wanting to be a member of these other handles. That's right. You say, why, man, just thank God because you're baptized by mercy after you get saved. That's right. You read down through the years of the Trail of Bloods, where these men were, my friend, martyred for the cause of Christ, and a bunch of Reformers were against Satanites. It was against God, against the old-time preaching of the Word of God. Hey, friend, they still didn't come out completely. Catholicism when they brought their little infant baptism out. That's a damnable harrass. He's sending people to hell. Tell them this long you squeak a little old baby and that's how you inherit eternal life. Any man preaches that much of rock is a hell bound preacher. Anybody that preaches stuff like that's not right with God. Joshua, don't you turn that way. Don't you go ecumenical. Hey, hey, don't you go with this Oh, this love crowd! Oh, thank God! This loves everybody! We all ought to get together! Ain't that a crowd of people I've chosen? Ain't that a crowd of people I've put together? And go with me! Amen! That's right, praise God! Don't you get fooled tonight about what people say. God never saved another person if He didn't. He's still God. He's got a right to put anybody in hell he wants to because they're sinners. He had a right to put us in hell, but He had extended His mercy to us. By the blood of the Lamb, He saved us. Thank God He redeemed us. And then say, oh, hey, I can't understand that. But I do know tonight I'm one of His. I've been chosen unto salvation in Christ. And brother, that's His will. I'm telling you tonight, I didn't know that until I got saved. That's right. God don't have a big crowd of people in this world. But He's got a chosen people that He's chose out of the world to be saved in Christ and have marks of a new birth. As pilgrims and strangers in this cursed world that seek things above and not things below, knowing that our home is in heaven one day, brother, that we're seated there in Christ already. And he said this Wednesday in Furmack, crowd will say, wait a minute, let us go along. And there's a crowd that wants to come. I want you to share the land with you. And even that one crowd made a lie to him, made a league with him. Hey, put them old sacks on. Amen. Made it sound like they come from a foreign country and they was neighbors with them. They'd get the wrath of God off of them. And Joshua didn't go against his covenant. But I'll tell you what, that was between God and Israel. It was an Israelite covenant God had made with them. And he had a leader for them. And he already promised them the land. And he stood firm on it. I'd rather stand firm with God and have whole Roy County saved. I'd rather stand firm with God tonight and say, this is what God says, than to have the whole county make a profession and go to hell. I'd rather stand with God tonight in the face of my wife, my children, my grandpa, my grandma, my mama, and my daddy. I'd rather stand with God. Listen, I'd want my wife to say the same thing. I'd rather stand with God tonight than anybody else. Because he's the only one, thank God, that I'm going to stand with and stand firm on. And I'm telling you this tonight, friend, thank God I'm not beating to their little drum beat. Hey, hey, they said, well, they piped, but they wouldn't march. They said we'd beat our drum, but they wouldn't dance. Thank God I'll beat to his drum. I'll dance to his march. I'm not in this thing. He said, Joshua, stand firm. Don't you turn one way or another, amen. That's right, praise God. I mean, that's right. I'll tell you this, if you don't learn that way, you'll dance to everybody that comes around. Joshua could have done it. Let's do it this way, Mr. Joshua. Wait a minute, we better not go into Jericho. There's some good people there. And I said, no, I want you to go riding. He said, there's a plan to take Jericho. And he said, this is the way we're going to do it. Amen. Amen. On the seventh day, thank God. After they had marched around, amen, the trumpets blew. Thank God they shouted. And the wall fell flat. And Rahab and her family got out. Amen. That was a hearty woman, thank God, and saved. Put in the genealogy of Christ himself. Hey, hey, thank God! I'm telling you tonight, God's got a way. You might as well go with it, boy. I'm glad to not. Thank God, I don't understand it all. And somebody said, preach, what you gonna do? I'm just gonna get up and, thank God, shuck a little and preach a little and shout a little, amen, and talk a little. And no telling where God might send it. He might send it back here, might send it there. He can do what He wants to with it if He is. That's why it's my faith tonight. Thank God, God says, do it this way. And if you do it my way, And I'll tell you, when they went around Jericho, thank God they shouted. Why y'all been marching so long, won't shout. Amen. That's right. They established it. Thank God. And the wall fell flat and they killed all the inhabitants besides Rahab and her family. That was one that hid the messengers and God was merciful to her. And they went on to Ai and lost the battle because they had a thief in the crowd. And God had him killed and his whole family. And they took Ai free. And they went on to the land of Canaan. They stood firm, brother. Thank God for that. You might as well go ahead and stand right there. There's no Word of saying, hey, hey, friend, hang on to be a good soldier. You're going to have to be firm. With the book, the blessing, don't say this. If you're going to be a good soldier, you've got to be a follower first. You've got to have faith. You've got to have a firmness in this. You've got to have some fight in you. That's why Canaan's not a type of heaven. There's battles there, brother. There's battles. That's right. There's battles in Canaan. One Paul said to Timothy, fight the good fight of faith. Because he knew it was a fight. And he knew that the biggest fight you'll have is against yourself. That's the biggest fight I have. If I could get myself in line, and not to fight myself, and war against myself, I could have good victory. Amen. And then you've got to fight and war against the things that's contrary to taking the land. They're getting into that abundant life that God had for them, that land that flowed with milk and honey. Joshua knew that. He had to have some men that would fight. And God, he had already been proven. He had done thought with Amalekite or Amalek. And Moses and Aaron and Herod stood on the mount. They upheld Moses' hand, but who was fighting? Joshua. He ain't got it as a soldier, he's a fighter. He wasn't talking about physical fighting. If you have to, sometimes you do. But I'll tell you what he was. He was an obedient, my friend, war man, and a fighter for God. That's right. I'll tell you one thing, we're not going to let the liberals come in here and take her. We'll fight it. Hey man, I'm not out looking for fights. But I'll tell you what, the biggest fight we got today is against the spirit of this world, the spirit of Antichrist. And we must stand, friend. If you're going to be a good soldier, you just can't go along with anything. And my friend, you've got to fight for the right and fight for the truth. Hey, the Bible said, we wrestle not with flesh and blood, but with principalities, powers, rulers of darkness, spirits of wickedness. In high places, sometimes you're going to have to fight. Right. Look in the Bible. The Old Testament's full of it. Men had to fight. Thank God to obtain. Amen. I know in the good Word of God, in the New Testament, Jesus Christ, thank God to have undone, won the battle. Amen. We're working from the win. Amen. We've already won. But there's still the warfare we face. And if we're going to be a good soldier, we've got to fight the fight. We've got to fight it. Warfare. Then I'll say this. Look how He finished. Look in Joshua chapter number 24, the great chapter of the Bible, Joshua chapter 24, and look at verse if you will, number 24. And the people said unto Joshua, The Lord our God will we serve, and His voice will we obey. So Joshua made a covenant with the people that day, and sent them a statue and an ordinance in Shechem. And Joshua wrote these words in the book of the law of God, and took a great stone, and set it up there under the oak, and it was by the sanctuary of the Lord. And Joshua said unto all the people, Behold, this stone shall be a witness unto us, for it hath heard all the words of the Lord which he spake unto us. It shall be therefore a witness unto you, lest ye deny your God. So Joshua let the people depart, and every man unto his inheritance. And it came to pass after these things that Joshua, the son of Nun, the servant of the Lord, died, being a hundred and ten years old. Verse 31, and Israel served, notice this great verse, and Israel served the Lord all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders that outlived, overlived Joshua, and which had known all the works of the Lord that he had done for Israel. Pretty good testimony to end up with. He finished right. He finished right. He finished right. That's right, he finished right. That means a whole lot how you finish. I know it means a whole lot how you start, but it means a whole lot how you finish. He finished right. You know why? He's a soldier. He's right. You take Joshua, he followed the man of God, Moses, but when God turned that thing over to him, it was continual battles to get to where God wanted him to get. Now here's the sad thing of it all. In the book of Judges, verse number 1, Now after the death of Joshua, it came to pass, that the children of Israel asked the Lord, saying, Who shall go up for us against the Canaanites first to fight against them? Wait a minute. God had you a leader there to teach you that. The Bible said in Judges chapter 2, There arose a generation that knew not the Lord. Here's the sad thing. If you don't get in there and do it, nobody can do it for you. That's right, isn't it? You can see it, but if you don't follow, if you don't have faith, if you're not firm, if you don't... Listen, you're not finished right. But even Joshua didn't finish right. Read it. That crowd said, well, who's going to fight for us? Listen to me, I understand though tonight God's got a leader. But in the New Testament church age, Christ is the head, Christ is the leader. And we all know and never wonder who's going to fight for us because the Bible said if God be for us, who can be against us. That's right. I'll tell you, friend, I don't want soft religion. I don't like battles. I don't like warfare. But I know it's part of the battle, and I know it's part of the Christian life. And I know that you're going to have battles. You're going to have all kinds of battles. And I'm just saying, if a man don't fight the fight, if a man don't stand firm, if a man don't believe God, if a man don't go on and listen to God, he'll, my friend, be up, off the warfare, ain't going to have the battle. And you don't want to leave the battle. That's right. Because there's people at stake tonight. Number one, your family's at stake. Then the flock's at stake. And then sinners are at stake. A lot of people at stake. A lot of things at stake. That's right. We need God to help us to be a good soldier. God to help us to put the armor on and go forward. lest we be consumed by the enemy. God help us to not do that. What kind of church do you want? It's not all decided to me. I'm a pastor. I'm going to run it the way God tells me. But it's just not left up to me. It's left up to you. If I die, what will you have? That's right. There ought to be something in you. I believe there is. And I'd trust the Lord in heaven that there's something in you, praise God, to say, hey, the same way Moses led us, Joshua, you in the way. Just go ahead. Even though he's not Moses, there'll never be another Moses. There'll never be another Joshua. I'll tell you what, God's got a man. And God's got a leader. And nobody can take your place tonight. But there'll be a day that you're going to move off the scene. And God's going to have to have somebody in here to say, I'll go with God. I'll take up the battle. I'll fight the battle. Amen? Because I'm telling you what, you listen to me now, in this day and time there's going to be pressure to conform to the way of the worlds, the way of religions. It's through the power of God. I like that old song, give me that old time religion. I know we don't have religion, but we do. Pure religion under five poor gods. The Father, the Son, the Will, and the Holy Spirit keep Himself unspotted from the world. I love you, appreciate you, let's stay the night. One day when I was thinking of unseen things above, the Savior spoke unto me and filled my heart with love. with glory in my soul.
