Because remember, you're going to die someday, or either be translated into heaven.

And if you die before His coming, you'll be raptured first. Did you know that? Did you know those who are dead-- If mama and papa dies before you do, and Jesus doesn't come in our generation, do you know these, papa and mama, will come forth first, glorified, before you? See?

The trumpet of God shall sound, and the dead in Christ shall rise first, then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up with them. We'll be changed in it like that. We've got to remember, that's the main thing in life. You understand now?

That's the main thing in life we got to do, is to get ready to meet God.

Then I think of when we see them standing yonder, our loved ones, our mothers, our kindreds, all our friends, and to see them in their immortal bodies, their celestial bodies, watching their character, seeing how they conduct themselves with that sweetness and quietness, no more nervousness or frustrations. To see them in-standing in the likeness of the Lord Jesus, that'll be a wonderful day.

Did you know that this church age was the only church age that Jesus was put out of His church and found knocking at the door trying to get back in the Laodicean Church Age? Don't you see the hour we're living? Wished I could come here for about a two or three weeks just on Bible teaching of prophecy and things.

See where we're living, friends. What's the matter with people?
Can't you see we're at the end time? It's all over.

The next thing will be a sweep will...that little group together. In a month or so she'll be gone, as soon as she's gathered together. Well, we're at the end. There's no hopes left nowhere. Run to Christ, people.

And notice, while they spake about Him, talked about Him, He appeared.

That's a good way to get Him around you: talk about Him all the time. Amen. Keep your conversation, not on who's-- Or where the next play comes up on the television, or the next movies going to come, or who's going to be elected president: talk about Jesus.

Christians talk about everything but Christ in these days. Go out, they always got a bunch of nonsense and everything they want to talk about or something, but never talking about Christ.

Talk about Him. Sing about Him. Love Him; keep Him on your heart and mind all the day and night.

You know, I believe if I'd have been standing there that close to the Lord Jesus, I'd have forgot all about what Simon had told me to say. The first thing I would've said, been, "Lord, be merciful to me, a sinner."

But that's the way many of us get. We feel that our daily task and what our work calls for is more important than anything else. And I believe, if we're ever in the presence of God, our earthly prestige, our earthly associates, our message, or our work should be last.

Let's get our confession out to Him. Oh, I'd loved to have fell down at His feet there, and said, "I have a message from my master, but first I got a message too. Be merciful to me, O God. I'm a sinner. And I know that Thou art the Son of God, and I've longed for this opportunity; and now I am kneeling here at Your feet; be merciful to me."

If He's a God of history, He's no good to us today, if He's a God of history only. If He isn't the same yesterday, today, and forever, then the Bible told something wrong.

Now, if He can get me in His submissive will, if He can get you in His will, then working between us (See?) that's where the power of God comes.

There's one Healer; that's God. God is the only One Who can build cells, make life; therefore, it's not in the power of man to do that.

A doctor can set a bone, or give you medicine to poison germs, that he put so much in it, and an antidote to keep it from killing you, and kill the germ and so forth. He can do that. But the tissue that's been torn down, or bone that's been broken, the appendicitis that's been taken out, the appendix, he cannot heal that. It takes God. God heals.

Man can remove a something that's causing it, if it's possible to move that organ, he can cut it out, and cut off the blood veins and pull that, or that tissue out, that's a wild cell, like tumor, cancer, or something. If he can get ahold of it, he can remove that. But to heal, he cannot, and he'll tell you that.

And, now, healing is of God alone. God alone has purchased for us our healing. It's up to us to do everything that we can, in our life, and in every way that God has give us, for our healing, but it's God that heals.

If God calls you to go home tonight, there isn't enough medicine in the world to keep you here. There's nothing going to keep you here.

And if He determines you to stay on the earth, no matter how many physicians says you're going tonight, you're not going. So it's just all up to God.

"To answer your question," I said, "now, I do not take either sides with you brethren. And I know, as long as you fuss, you're both wrong. See? Because I would rather be wrong in my doctrine and right in my heart, than to be right in my doctrine and wrong in my heart." See? I said, "After all, it's your heart's condition."

And I made that a practice to know this, that if a man, no matter what he does and how much he differs and what he says about me, if in my heart--not from just a duty--but from my heart I can't love that man as well as I love anyone else, then I know there's something wrong in here. See? That's right.

I'd rather be wrong in my theology than be wrong in my heart. That's right. Spirit of God dwells in your heart.

I'd rather be wrong in my doctrine and right in my heart. God will respect it more. So if a man is wrong, what of it? Help him. He needs help. Love him.

If you can't love your enemy the same as you love those who love you, you're no better off than the publicans. That's right. That's what the Church has failed to get. I hope you get it tonight. I hope you see what I'm talking about.

It's back to love, redeeming love. All the other things are fine, but we got to come back to fellowship with one another.

And people said I fight organizations. I do not. I fight that system in there that's breaking up brotherhood. I've always done it. And I always will do it. That's right. That thing that separates brotherhood--

Let us come together. Let's be brothers. If I could see every church in this city, every church in the world come like we was the other morning (that ministerial breakfast), when I seen the Oneness, Twoness, Threeness and all, hugging one another, their arms around one another, I'd say, like Simeon of old, "Lord, let Thy servant depart in peace, for my eyes have seen Thy salvation." That's right.
