GenCon Outtakes Vol. 2

Today brothers and sisters I will take for my text the 1st chapter, 6th verse from the book of Revelation–“And hath made us kings and priests unto God and His Father: to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.” It is altogether correct in...

I Saw Two Personages

When Joseph recorded his “first vision” he never mentioned The Holy Ghost in any of the versions published. See all of the accounts side by side. It no sooner appeared than I found myself delivered from the enemy which held me bound. When the light rested...
