Well, I'm very happy
to say we have Ronnie Hawkins here tonight. Yeah. I don't know where
he is, I know he's here somewhere. Ronnie and I go back a long ways, in fact
Ronnie's, I hear he's gonna be doing movies now, I
think. Was it a movie a year now? Is that right, Ronnie? Well, remember, you
know, actually I gave Ronnie his first part in the movies. That's right. Ronnie
was in a little movie we made called, Renaldo and Clara. About…a few years back and Ronnie played the part of Bob Dylan.
Interesting movie. Anyway, I guess there's no place to go but up now, hey Ron? (before When He Returns)
Thank you. Cover down, Pray Through. I wish somebody told me that when I
was coming up. (after Cover Down, Pray Through)
Thank you. I’m gonna introduce a couple of
young ladies to you. Mona Lisa Young and Mary Bridges are gonna
sing two songs. Mona Lisa’s gonna sing a song called
There’s A Stranger In The City Healing.
[Voice from the audience: “Who wrote
that one, Bob?”] (Off microphone to the band) Who wrote that? I don’t have any idea. (after Walking Around
Heaven All Day)
Man asked me on the street today, he said, “Well, if you believe all
those things,” he said, “I just can't seem to love my enemy.” That's a tough
thing to do, you know? That's an impossible thing to do actually. Cause the
natural mind, you know, can't comprehend that. So if you’re in the natural mind
you just can't comprehend loving your enemy. That seems like a foolish thing to
do, and it is. However, the supernatural mind can comprehend that. So when
Jesus says “love thy neighbor as thyself,” he wasn't exactly saying “roll over
and play dead.” Actually, I wanna tell you a story
here. We were playing in…about four months ago someplace, it was a college
campus, I forget exactly where,
Well, we're gonna have to go now. The man
there says we…Can we play one more? Ok, we play one more. Anyway, I want you to
tell people to write to me now. I don't know if we come back here. I try and
get back next year. I want you to write to me now and tell me what you're
thinking. Any of you got any questions or something you just write them in
there, send them in. Prayer requests, questions, any of that. (before In The Garden)
All right. The man on the keyboards right here, Spooner

Thank you. Last time I
was here in
Jesus died at Calvary. You may think, why should a man have to die on
Calvary? Way back when, the keys to the world was given to someone called
Lucifer – or something like that. I don’t remember the exact title ,,, anyway,
he’s always around. The only way for the keys to come back was by Jesus coming
to the cross. Now you might think that’s a strange thing for me to say but it
has been revealed to me that it is The Truth, Satan we now call Lucifer. He’s
called the God of this world, prince of the power of the air. He’s called all
sorts of things, but he’s really the Devil, no more, no less than that. And
he’s a spiritual being. You can’t see him, but he can control you and if he
can’t control you, he’ll want to destroy you. So what do we have to fight
Lucifer with? What did Jesus do by going to the cross? He rendered him
helpless. That is why I say “The weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but
mighty through God in pullig down strongholds,
casting down imaginations against every high thing that exalts itself against
God” (before Solid Rock)
Thank you. (…..), that’s Spooner

Thank you. Thank you. I wanna introduce a
couple of young ladies to you. The first one, Mary Bridges. I wanna introduce you to Mary Bridges. She’s gonna sing a song called Walking Around Heaven All Day.
Mary? Ladies and gentlemen, Mary Bridges.
Mary Bridges. I wanna bring Gwen Evans out
here. Gwen Evans’ gonna sing a song called Lord Don’t
Move This Mountain.
Thank you. Hanging on to a solid rock. Jesus is that solid rock. There's
a form of levity they call (…..). They got a way of (…..) all around. Make
what's good seem bad and what's bad seem good. I saw a young girl the other day
who just lives from orgasm to orgasm. I know that's a strange thing, but that's
what she had to do because of these so called modern times. Well, she's not
satisfied. (before Solid Rock)
Thank you. Thanks very much. We're gonna play
one more. I guess we have to leave town tomorrow, yeah? If you want us to come
back you write us some letters. Write us some letters anyway. (after What Can I Do For You).

Well all kinds of things happening in the world today. ...the Secretay of State just resigned. What do you think about
that? Is that surprising? No that's not surprising, stranger things have
happened than that. Jesus is coming again though, that's the important thing. (before Slow Train)
Bob Dylan ain’t gonna
save you. Ha. You're in trouble, Bob Dylan ain't gonna do anything. You need the Lord. (before Do Right To Me Baby (Do Unto Others)
Thank you. Well, how many of you out there, how many of you know that
Satan is called the God of this world?
Who knows that. Prince of the Power of the air. He's a spiritual being nothing you can do to him. Anybody? Now Jesus Christ
defeated that power at the Cross, who knows that? These are dangerous times. A
lot of people think Jesus was just some kind of meek person who came around on
Earth and helped others by being so meek. But that's not true. People say when
under the power of Jesus can't sin but chairs and tables can’t sin either that
can't be it. Sin keeps the power of God in bondage. So sometimes I go on and on
and they say “Bob, don't preach so much.” Anyway Jesus did say blessed are
those that mourn for they shall be comforted. Well, it doesn't say exactly
that. Exactly that it says "blessed are those that mourn for only they
shall be comforted." some Bibles say blessed are those that hunger and
thirst after righteousness for they shall be satisfied. But it really means
only they shall be satisfied. Now we say all these things and you know if Satan
is the God of this world all these things don't seem to be true. Too strong and
true. They don't seem to be good principles to live by because Satan doesn't
like that. Now I been talking about Satan now as a spiritual being. Not
somebody you can see. But he can possess you. I didn't know none of these
things 4 years ago either. I don't know why I'm up here telling you this. But I
always told you the truth, I never told you to vote for nobody. Never told you
to follow no guru. I never told you to buy no product. Never told you what to
wear or how to cut your hair. Some of you may not get it, some of you might.
But I want you to know I could die right now, this very minute. I know I still
have eternal life. (before Solid Rock)

believe in a God that can raise the dead. Anyway, now it’s the only way.
Anyway, I wanna introduce a few young ladies to you
right now. Gwen Evans is gonna sing a song called…I’m
not sure…Lord Don’t Move The Mountain.
That was Gwen Evans. Mary Bridges is gonna
come and sing too. She will sing a song called Walking Around Heaven All Day.
Mary Bridges.
Thank you. Yeah.
Thank you. (…..). Anyway, this is a nice place. I’ve been here before.
I’ve been walking around today. I noticed there’s many tall steeples, big
churches with stained glass windows. Let me tell you one thing; God’s not
necessarily found in there. He can't be converted into steeples and stained
glass windows. But Jesus is mighty, mighty to save. If H’s in your Heart, He’ll
convert you. You don’t have to go to no church. Don't you be deceived now.
There's only one Christ and we know where to find him. (before In The Garden)

Thank you. Alright,
last chance for you to come view these shows before you read the newspaper.
Cause they say all kinds of things. Usually they're not true. Not too
encouraging you know. Reporters they either don't know about it or some
religion barrier. Or they may think they know about it. They think of God as a
friend, that's as far as it goes. They don't think of any morality at all, or
gender. I know some relationships have gone wrong haven't they? I know mine
have. Children can't get along with their parents. Parents can't get along with
their children. Can't get along with their boss Can't get along with wife or
relationships. Or Satan or ..... The Bible says God gave Christ as reconciled
the world to him. And got to get a relationship with God if everything else is
falling o bits. Don't you worry about the country now, cause the Bible said
"Blessed is the man who walks not in the council of his own country."
(before Slow Train)
Well, thank you. Who knows that sometimes we expect too much of someone
and they let you down? I hear a couple, just a couple. For you to trust and let
you down. That's a decision. Most of you show me the side you wanna show me. But I say you're in the same position to.
There's only one name that can save you. Only one person who went to the Cross
for you. And you can take it or leave it. Now we don't believe in a Heaven and
Hell. You just die, you'll find out, remember that. When you came into this
world what did you bring. What did you bring with him when you came into this
world? What are you gonna take with you when you
leave. You ain’t gonna take
your baggage with you. You’re not take your bags, not gonna
take your attitudes, not gonna take your prejudices
nor pride. None of that, you’re taking none of that with you. You go all alone.

Thank you. Don't wanna hurt nobody, sometimes you know. I usually see this all the time. You
see one man dressed a certain way, and another man dressed another way. And
somehow your friendly to the man dressed one way an unfriendly to the man
dressed the other way. Sometimes different people in positions in life say that
they happen to treat some person one way, just because somebody don't have as
much to do with them another way. Well you already judged that person when you
called the cards. I guess some of you wonder "just what is he talking
about? It don't make no sense any of this?" We live in leaderless times. I
know we all agree about that. We realize that men will become lovers of their
own selves. Most men are proud and arrogant one thing I know, oh yeah trials
and tribulations will come. But eternal life is yours for the asking. And only
God knows the secret of the Heart. God knows all the secrets, you can't keep
nothing from him. All right now, don't you be deceived now by the mouthings of the truth. Lot of people pray, and wonder why
they don’t get what they praying for. They’re praying all week. Praying all
year. They just ain’t got it. There’s a reason for
that. The Bible says "You ask amiss [and
receive not] to consume it upon your
ungodly lust.If that’s the only reason you’re
praying, you uprobably won’t get it. Bot God got
other things in store for you. And I know He’s calling his people now. Some of
you out there are God’s people. Maybe some of you aren’t. I don’t know who is
who. But at the last days H’s gonna pour out his
spirit on all flesh. Now you know if you’re called or nor, I don’t.. (before
Solid Rock)
Have you noticed how all these people are eunning
for President now? They’re gona save the country. But
you can’t save nothing unless you are saved! Jesus said “Woe to you when all
men speak well of you ….” It’s like when people say “Well, if you accept Jesus,
everything’s gonna be fine.” That’s not necessarily
true. They have a a lot of different doctrines they
teach… They have something called “The Prosperity Doctrine”. I don’t know if
you ever heard of it. Lots of preachers going around saying “Well, it’s your
right to have a Cadillac. It’s your right to have a good house. You have a
right to have anything you want,” But you can’t go over to Romania and preach
that way to the Christians. You can’t go to Russia and say that. As long as
your doctrine is balanced, then Jesus will deliver you. From anything. Health
problems, love problems, money problems. But the Bible does say “Cursed is the
man thst trusteth in man,
that makes flesh his strength.
Thank you, all right we got one more. What? I can't hear you? We have to

Thank you. I Ain't Gonna Go To Hell For
Anybody. You know maybe sometimes an evil man might die. .... long limousines, on their way to the funeral. And you know the
man is evil, you just do know. And you know how the Minister always says
"Lord accept this man" but by that time it's too late. They try to
preach him into Heaven after he's dead. Anyway, some people may have seen me
before, some may not have. You know, pop music always have been very popular. I
now when I was growing up I used to listen to Hank Williams, Little Richard, Gene Vincent and all those people. And they
kind of formed my style one way or another. But I can't help this type of music
I play. This is the kind of type I always played. I know a lot of other people
play this sort of kind of music, they tell me some strange things and the
Devil’s taken rock n roll music and he's used it for his purposes. I know that
some people might not believe there is a Devil at all. I'm not talking about a
Devil with a pitchfork. Are you listening to me? All right, some of you might
think of the Devil with a pitchfork and horns and that's not necessarily the
Devil at all. I talk about the Devil that at one time was Gods
chosen servant. His right hand helper, his right hand man, beautiful angel.
We're talking about that Devil. He's a spiritual Devil and he's got to be
overcome. He has been overcome by what Jesus did at the Cross. I just want to
tell you that so you know. That's as short as I can put it. You may not have
ever heard that. Well, we are living in the end times. We all agree about that.
It's the
Thank you, well all right, we live in a
dangerous time. I don't know what you read. All I read is the Bible, that's all
I read. So you can quote me on that if you want. Once in a while I look in the
newspapers and the Bible says, "Friendship with the world is enmity with
God." In other words friend of the world is enemy of God. I know that
sounds really strange. But sometimes the truths hard to take. But the truth
will set you free. (before Solid Rock)
Thank you. On the keyboards tonight, from Muscle Shoals

Thank you, thank you.
Alright, anybody left yet? ha ha. They tell me everybody leaves you at
these shows. It’s a little hard to see out there. Middle of the road, East
Coast bondage. God is waiting to set you free. I know you don’t hear to much about God these days, but we're gonna
talk about him all night anyway. We’re not gonna talk
about no mysticism, no meditation, none of those Eastern religions. We’re just gonna be talking about Jesus. Th demons don’t like that name. I’ll tell
right now, if you got demons inside you, they’re not gonna
like it. (before Slow Train)
Thank you, all right! I feel better now. I wanna
introduce you to a young lady you can see in the flesh and been around a while
and she sings for you called Miss Clydie King. She's gonna sing a song for you called "Calvary".
Whether you know it or not you're all free. I know that some of you don't feel
free, but you are. I can tell you right now that you've got an edge to be free
because of what Jesus did at Calvary.
Thank you. I don't know if any of you have seen me before or not. I know
I been through here before. I think it was, I think it was sometime in 1964.
Anyway, I was singing some songs back then. I remember singing a song called
Desolation Row, that's right! You're clapping now, you weren't clapping then! No, you
weren't clapping then! I don’t know if the same people where there, but it was
"What's he singing about?" You did not understand what I was singing
then, I don't think I did either. Ha ha. I understand
now pretty much what I'm singing about. It must have took a while for
Desolation Row, Maggie's Farm, Subterranean Homesick Blues, all that stuff to really catch on. Because it wasn’t accepted very
well at the time. But I’m always prepared for adversity. I was always prepared
back then and now I’m even more prepared. All right, but lot of people they
talk about Jesuses like they profess that they’re committed to the Lord. Well,
I tell you now there's a lot of different types of Jesuses that they profess
that they’re with. But there is only one Jesus. All eyes shall see him, every
knee shall bow. The Jesus that have defeated the Devil. If you look onto Jesus
you gotta look onto the Cross. All the Jesuses that
will give you all the things you want, in your earthly life, forget about that
Following Jesus is no easy trip, but it’s the only trip. I’m afraid to say,
I’ve seen a lot of different kinds of other trips. You may not ever hear that
name again. I know not long ago I had never heard of Him myself. Nobody ever
told me that Jesus could save me. I didn't think I needed to be saved. I
thought I was doing just fine. Well now, anyway, you know we live in dangerous
times. Well, Jesus is prepared for that, he knew all about it. Right, I don't
know what you're hanging on to. We're hanging on to a Solid Rock, made before
the foundation of the world. The times´ coming when you’re gonna
need something sort of like that. There’s gonna be a
lot of delusion coming at you. You think what’s happening now is bad you just
wait. You think it’s rough now is bad you just wait. The Bible says
"Cursed is the man who trusts in man." (before Solid Rock)

Thank you. Now we got
a stage show tonight as well as we did last night. You know I talk mostly about
God, too. And the
spirit of God. Afraid I might be talking about Jesus, too. And them demons that
are out now, they're
not gonna like that name. You got to warn them demons
right now that they will
end tonight. Anyway,
we don't sing through this kind of fear — we got to defend the Works of God.
Say like you got a
twenty dollar bill, and you can spend it on one ticket to the bank and get it
redeemed or you can't
do it. (before When You Gonna
Wake Up?)
Thank you! "Ain't Gonna
Go to Hell for Anybody". Can't let nobody take you there. [Laughs] Better read those
compliments. I know that right now it's not fashionable to think about Him, I
know that. But God knows no fashion anyway. God is always fashionable. But it's
hard not to go to hell, you know. There's so many distractions, so many
influences. You start walking right, and pretty soon there's just somebody
there to drag you down. As sure as the enemy is on the outside, then the enemy
comes inside. They got all kinds of ways. God said, "Resist the Devil, the
Devil will flea". "You got to stand to resist him". And I'll
show you how you got to stand. How we got to stand? You're listening to me?
Somebody knows how to stand? How do you stand?[audience]: Straight! Everybody knows? We got stay here
all the time 'til tomorrow night. We'll have to come back tomorrow night
anyway. Oh, Mercy! (before Cover Down/Pray Through)
All right there it is. Long time ago they used to have these Greek
plays, I guess, pretty long time ago. Anyway now they have groups called
actors, you know that. Back then they had actors too, but they called them
hypocrites. That's right! There'd be like a play, like a play with thirty
people in it, but actually there'd only be four. They all used to wear masks.
They'd all come out in a mask, [Dylan says a
few words in a high-pitched voice] talk
in another voice. They’d just were a mask. So four people could play the part
of thirty people. That's a heavy responsibility, keeps you on your toes. Never
know who you are, so there's a lot of hypocrites. They're talking, you know,
using Jesus' name, but don't you let that put you off, cause you're still
dealing with the world. Jesus has overcome the world, that's what he did at the
Cross. As simple as that. You may think it's complicated, but actually if you
look at Jesus you gotta look at the Cross. Actually
if you're wondering why all these things are happening these days. Joshua you
know he went to, I believe it was Canaan land and God told him at certain times
to destroy all the Canaanites, every man, women and children there. That's bad!
He certainly hated to leave the children, but they were just all defiled. And
there was some cities that he said, "oh go in there yeah" and Joshua
wondered why, and God said because their iniquity is not yet full. So now, when
you look around today, when we started out this tour, we started out in
All right, thank you. All right we gotta go
soon. Actually I could stay here and talk to you all night. But I tell you it's
later than you think, but in truth it's sooner than you think. (before In The Garden)
Thank you. All right, on the keyboards tonight, from Muscle Shoals,

All right, thank you.
We’re talking about Jesus tonight. That’s the only way to salvation. So if
you’ve got demons about they’re not gonna like that
name Jesus. I feel that right now they’re gonna run
from that man. (after Ain’t
Gonna Go To Hell For Anybody)
Thank you. It’s sooner than you think. All right. Much sooner. I know
some of you out there are on the verge of committing suicide. Others of you
think you got it all together. Well, it don't matter. Anybody know who the God
of this world is? I'm just curious to know. Satan is calle
d the God of this world. Some of you know that, some of you dont,
You got confused if you think somebody else is the God of this world. Satan is
the God of this world. Jesus has overcome that power. Just about two thousand
years ago at the Cross. I used to think there were all kinds of ways to get to
glory, y'know, Eastern religion. Transcendental
meditation. But all those ways, they fail. They only go so far. They help you
deal with this world. You can't overcome this world with those kinda things, however. No, you need the power of God in
you. Power of God manifested in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, preached
out in the world, believed on in the nations. Raised on up into glory. You need
that kind of power. Or you ain’t gonna
make it. You'll die alright. You'll live and you'll die. I know you might look
at me and say, "Wow he’s just lost his mind!" But I never did lie to
you, and I never told you to vote for nobody. I never told you what to eat.
Never told you which records to buy, what programs to watch, how to live, any
of that stuff. I'm telling you the truth now, but it's like trying to tell
somebody what a piece of bread tastes like. So its
just one of them things you gotta either do or not do
by yourself. Don't let your friends mispersuade you
now, because they're not gonna go with you. You come
into this world alone, and you leave with nothing. (before Slow Train)
We’re talking about Jesus tonight. That’s the only way to salvation. So
if you’ve got demons about, they’re not gonna like
that name Jesus.They’re gonna
run from that man. (after Ain’t
Gonna Hell For Anybody)

All right, thank you.
I Ain't Gonna Go To Hell
For Anybody. I know it's not fashionable. It's not fashionable to be thinking
about Heaven and Hell. I know that. But God’s always in fashion. So we're gonna be talking about Jesus tonight. And I warn you right
now, that if you got any demons inside of you at all they're not gonna like that name, Jesus. They're gonna
rebel against that. I know a lot of you think of yourselves as rebels. But let
me tell you something, you ain't no rebel at all
unless you rebel against the Devil. (after Ain’t Gonna Go To Hell For
Anybody)
Thank you. Well, I'd like to say right now we're not gonna
give an altar call tonight. There's a pit right here
in front of the stage. But I am gonna try to implant
the words of God in you. I know, you cast out seeds; you cast out on the
wayside. Some seeds they go on to the rock. Other seeds they go into the
thorns, then there some seeds go on the fertile ground. I know some of you are gonna hear this. You’re gonna
hear Jesus died for your sins and to destroy the works of the Devil and you're gonna rejoice when you hear that. A lot of you don't know
(…..) an oath, you figure it's a political system or something. You don't know
the Devil’s behind politics. You don't know you are the tree that God believes
in. Anyway, some of you are gonna hear that word,
it's like throwing it out to the wayside. You hear it, but you're gonna leave this room, it's gonna
disappear immediately. Others of you are gonna hear
it, it's gonna be like putting on a rock, you’re also
gonna rejoice. But you’re gonna
go out there and it's not gonna take any deep root.
It's gonna be snatched away by the enemy. I don't
mean that old enemy that Waylon Jennings talks about, and Willie Nelson, and Jackson Browne, and Henry Kissinger, any of those people. I mean the real enemy, that one that wants your
soul. All right, some of you you’re so choked by the riches of this world, the
cares of this world that those riches and those cares are gonna
choke this word. I know all about that. But others, I know, are gonna plant the word in fertile ground. For these are the
last days, these dark times. It's the midnight hour. I know some of you are on
the verge of committing suicide. Some of you, you think you got it all
together; it don’t matter. Jesus came for all nations. Every knee shall bow,
every tongue will confess. (before Slow Train)
All right, thank you. Well, we're hanging on to a solid rock. I don't
know what you're hanging on to, but we're hanging on to a solid rock.
All right, on the keyboards tonight, from Muscle Shoals, Alabama,
Spooner Oldham. On the other set of keyboards, from Birmingham, Alabama, Terry
Young. From Little Rock, Arkansas, on lead guitar tonight, Fred Tackett.

BobTalk
You have many snakes oround here, poisonous snakes? That nbake
was a snake in the asrden of Eden. Seem just like the
other day. Ayway, back then the snake walked on hands
and legs. Lucifer the high angel of God put his spirit inside that snake. … [the Devil] controls medicine … controls politics …
controls literature, education, you name it, he’s there. If you’re troubled,
that’s why you’re troubled. ‘Case Satan has got you and you don’t kniw it. So Jesus Christ did go to the cross not inly for thre forgiveness of sins
but to destroy the works of the Devil (in raised voice) which no man has ever done! (after
Man Gave Names To All The Animals)
We’re hanging on to a solid rock. I don’t know what you’re hanging onto.
Solid roch made before the foundation of the world.
Nobody said it was going to be easy. Anyway I guess we’re gonna
cast our seeds. I don’t know how many of you know anything about farming but
when you cast out seeds you sometimes cast ‘em out
onto hard rock or you cast ‘em out onto the wayside,
or you cast ‘em iunto
thorns or you can cast them into fertile ground. Now I know that some of you gonna hear this tonight and it’s gonna
bde like casting sedds onto
the wayside. Now you know who you are. You’re living on the wayside and itä’sd gonna mean nothing to you
and the Devil’s gonna snatch you right up .Others of
you are living on some kind of rock. When you hear it, you’re gonna rejoice cause eternal life does and sounds don’t it?
I mean who wants to die?Without firm rooting the
seed’s gonna die? Also you cast them among them among
thorns, growing up amongs thorns, the riches and the
cares of this world, they’re thorns they’re gonna
strangle the seed. And it’s gonna die. Bot I also know and I believe that there’s fertile ground
out there. I know that, I know that I know. (before Solid Rock).

Thank you. I see they got a lot of new books now. One new book, I saw a
review of it in the newspapers. "How to commit suicide in 100 different
ways" They don’t tell you each one of these ways leads straight to Hell.
Anyway, we’re gonna be talking about Jesus tonight.
If you got any demons inside you, they’re not gonna
like that name. So if you wanna leave, you can leave
right now, leave your money behind. (before Ain't Gonna Go To Hell For
Anybody)
Thank you. All right, someboidy out there
called Zeke? He wants to know why I don’t play any old songs. Now, listen, I wanna tell you something. I love those old songs, probably
more than you all do. And because I do love them so much, that’s precisely why
I don’t do them. Some of these songs were written twenty years ago. I’m not the
same person who wrote those songs amd you’re not the
same person that heard those songs, Now, if you don’t believe that, go look
into the mirror … I know some of you are not gonna
like what you see. I know some of you look in the mirror and as soon as you
walk away, you forget wht you look like. Btu God
knows what you look like, and ke’s got every hair on
your head counted and He’s got a plan of salvation through what Jesus Christ
did on the Cross. He not only went to the Cross for your sins and my sins. He
went to the Cross to destroy the work of the Devil. Something no man has ever
done. Now if you don’t believe that, you ask him to come into your heart and
you’ll see it’s true. He’s knocking on your door. Remember now, you may not be
fashionable, but God will always be fashionable. I seen
a lot of people in my time go through things that I do. I knew Jimi Hendrix, I knew Janis Joplin and I knew Jim Croce and I knew

Thank you. Right, like
the man said, if you don't stand up to something, you'll fall for anything. (after I Believe In You)
The last animal in case you haven't guessed, is a snake. The same snake
that was in the Garden of Eden. The same snake that was Satan, Lucifer, God of
this world. Prince of Power of the Air, that's the same person. And just like he deceived Adam and Eve he's
out there to deceive us right now. They say "Bob don't preach so
much". They always say "Bob do this, Bob do that". But that's
all right. You see, I will do whatever I please anyway, I don't have any
friends to lose. Anyway, I know not too many people are gonna
tell you about Jesus. I know Jackson Browne’s not gonna
do, it he's running on empty. I know Bruce Springsteen’s not gonna
do it, cause he's Born To Run and he's still running. And Bob Seger’s not gonna
do it cause he's running against the wind. Somebody's got to do it, somebody's
got to tell you you’re free! You're free because Jesus paid for ya! And that's the only reason you're free. Now you pick up
your bed and walk. (before Slow Train)

Thank you. Yes. Well, it's
our last night here. I wanna thank all of you that
have just been really encouraging at this time. Cause we know the doctrine is
strong. Doctors can't abide with love. Anyway, as everybody has guessed, the
animal in the last song was a snake. Same snake that was in the Garden of Eden that deceived Eve and deceived Adam, and still running around loose right now, deceiving the Nation. See,
Lucifer put his spirit inside that snake. Lucifer was a high angel of God
before he became the Devil. Anyway, Adam gave him the keys to this world, and
he owns it. He owns everything about it. He owns the newspapers, he owns the
political parties, he owns the doctors and he owns the lawyers. He owns the
educational system, he owns it all. But Jesus Christ went to the Cross to
defeat that power. I know that's a secret that Satan keeps. Jesus went to the
Cross not only for forgiveness of sins but to destroy the works of the Devil,
and he accomplished just that. Something no man has ever done. (before Slow Train)

Thank you. All right.
Kind of quiet out there. (prolonged applause). Well, I know it's not fashionable to talk
about Heaven or Hell. But God’s always fashionable. And I notice at this
motel…we’re staying at this motel, I guess, down the road somewhere there's a
convention down there. They must have, there must be two thousand people just
up all hours of the night. It's hard to get any rest at all. Just carrying on,
big people, little people, all sizes and shapes. Well, then they seem to have
taken over the place, eating and drinking and being merry. Having a good time.
I know none of those people believe in Heaven and Hell, I can just take a look
at them and tell that. (after When You Gonna Wake
Up)
Thank you. What a friendly crowd, ha ha. I'm
not used to these friendly crowds no more. Usually the Devil’s working all
kinds of mischief in the crowds we visit. Just looking out at them demons. (after Ain’t Gonna
Go To Hell For Anybody)
Well, thank you. (…..). All right, if you haven’t guessed, the name of
that last animal, I know you got it, was a snake. Same snake that was in the
Garden of Eden. Same snake that Lucifer put his spirit into to deceive Eve, to deceive
Adam. Who gave him the keys to this world. Lucifer was a high angel of God,
he's not one of these Devils with pitchforks. (…..). Do you believe in the
power of the gospel? That Jesus Christ gave…(went to) the Cross for the
forgiveness of sins, but also to destroy the works of the Devil. Now that's
something you should talk about. (after Man Gave
Names To All The Animals)
All right, thank you. On the keyboards tonight, give him a warm hand,

Thank you, all right!
In case you haven’t guessed by now, the name of that last animal was a snake.
Same snake that was in the Garden of Eden, same one. In fact in those days snakes ere
walking on two legs, like the snakes today still are walking on two legs.
Anyway, the same snake that deceived Eve. Who deceived Adam. Who deceived all mankind. Anyway a lot of people you know they’re
waiting, till they're at the end of the line before they go see Jesus. They
just wait till the very last moment. They wait till they're too old, or too
drunk, or too sick. About that time when they decide they’re about ready to go
see Jesus. We’re talking about that woman with the issue of blood, she spend
all her money on doctors. Couldn’t get no relief. And finally she went to see
Jesus. Well, is she’d had any more money to spent, she’d have spent that too.
We’re talking about the prodigal son who went home. well, If he’d had more
money to spend, more bucks, he wouldn’t have gone home either. I want to tell
you something, the Devil’s taken rock ‘n’ roll and made it his music, same way
he’s taken free education and made it is his education, same way he’s taken
medicine and made it is his medicine. He's called the God of this world and if
you look around he’s just that. Prince of the Power of the Air, that's what he
is. He prowls the airwaves. Now, I don’t know if you know this or not but
that’s precisely the reason Jesus went to the Cross. You repeat that now and
get it right! I'm not talking about no religion now, I'm talking about Jesus.
The real Jesus. The one that's coming back. (before Slow Train)
Thank you. (....)I'm not gonna make any altar
calls, there won’t be any altar calls tonight so don't be afraid about that.
But I am gonna try and implant the word of God in
you. (....) Anyway, implanting the word of God now is a tricky thing. Cause you
know, you plant seeds out of ..., I don’t who many of you know anything about
farming, I know I don’t, ha-ha-ha. However you plant seeds on the wayside. I
don’t know if I’m looking out on the wayside right now. I’m gonna
plant seeds, but ..., they’re on the wayside, they’re gonna
be received with gladness, I know. Everybody rejoice, and you’re gonna clap out now, but as soon as you walk out the door,
you’re gonna forget all about it. You know you can
plant seed on a rock, and I’ve seen them grow too! They received that seed with
gladness and they also rejoiced, but you ain’t gonna know yourself well enough for it to grow. But the
Devil’s gonna snatch it from you, I hope otherwise,
but that’s the way it is sometimes. I think you know, there’s lot of thorns out
there, I know that too. I'm telling you Jesus is Lord and I don't want throw
that out to the thorns. You’re gonna receive them
with gladness but you got so many cares in this world so entangled with thorns
you can't hear these words. They’re gonna strangle
that seed and not let it grow no further. But I just as much as I know all that
I also know there is fertile ground out there. Now we are in the last days, God
is calling his people. Some of you don't know you're God’s people, some of you
don't know you got power over evil. Some of you don't know the Devil’s already
defeated for you. All you got to do is accept it. And be baptized with the Holy
Ghost. I’m not talking about water baptism, I’m talking about the Holy Ghost
baptism. (before Solid Rock)
[lots of calls for the old songs] All right, well, others do these songs for
you. I know a lot of country and western people they do that. They sing ah,
sing ah, what is it? “You can put your shoes into my bed anytime”. And then
they turn around and sing “Oh Lord, just a closer walk with thee”. Well, I
can’t do that, That’s right, you cannot serve two masters. You gotta hate one and love the other. You can’t drink out of
two cups. (before In The Garden)

Thank you. Right, in
case you didn't guess, that last animal was a snake. I know some of you knew
that already. Same snake that was in the Garden of Eden. Back then snakes walked on their legs. Well, actually they still do.
Same snake that was in the Garden of Eden, same snake that previously had been
Lucifer. High angel of God (....) fallen angel Lucifer. Anyway when you want to
meet God, that must be when you on you’re guard the
most. Cause he came down and he deceived me, didn't he? Didn't he do that? He
deceived them ain't that right? When Adam and Eve gave the keys to this world over
to the Devil. Well, that's why Jesus Christ had to go to the Cross right? Not
only for the forgiveness of sins but to destroy the works of the Devil. So
that's why it says, I think it's Romans 8, if that same spirit that raised
Christ from the dead, dwells in you, shall quicken your mortal life. And you
can be alive, lots of dead people walking around today, thinking they got to be
alive. (before Slow Train)
Thank you. Thank you. Right, well you know they say the Bible says no word
of God comes like a boil. (....) word of God in you tonight. I know there's a
lot of people who don't know it. You see all the race riots and things they
have been going on? Well, let me tell you the eighties are gonna
be worse than the sixties. Anyway, if you want the word of God in you, I don't
know about making it grow. But like, I, I don't know too much about farming but
when the Bible talks about planting seeds on the wayside. And I know some of
you out there are on the wayside. You hear the word of God, you gonna know you’re saved, you’re gonna
receive all the gladness and joy. You know you may not have everlasting power,
but as soon as you leave these doors, your enemy is gonna
snatch it from you. He don't want you to have it. Then there's like planting
seeds on the rock. I know out there there’s a lot of rocky ground. You gonna receive the word. You gonna
walk out of here, but you gotta know yourself well
enough to enable for it to grow. And it’s gonna die
too. Then you plant seeds among thorns. And I know there's lots of thorns out
there. Thorns are cares and riches of this world. They are gonna
choke that seed and not let it grow . They’re just not gonna
grow on that stuff, I still know there’s fertile ground out there. And it’s gonna grow. (after Saving
Grace)
All right, thank you. On the keyboards tonight, give him a warm hand,
from Muscle Shoals,

All right thank you. Ain't Gonna Go To Hell For
Anybody. You know the Devil is all around us. Anyway, I gotta
tell you about Jesus. Because I know, and I don't know whether you want to hear
it? Bruce Springsteen, he's not one of you, he's born to run, and he's still runnin'. Jackson Browne now, he’s running on empty, God
bless his soul ... Bob Seger, he’s ..., what’s he doing now? His running against the wind. And The
Eagles, they’re on that long run. Sooner or later all those boys gotta come home. I don't care who they are. (before Ain't Gonna
Go To Hell For Anybody)
All right. If you haven't already guessed the name of the last animal
was a, monkey. Not really, it was a snake. That’s right, it was a snake. You
got any poisonous snakes out here? I mean those that crawl on the ground, I
don't mean the two legged kind. (after Man Gave
Names To All The Animals)
All right thank you. Well I remember trying to tell people in the
sixties that hard times would come but it would change. I told them about it in
1963. Those harder times are coming now. The sixties are gonna
be just like a little lamb compared to the eighties. We already see signs of
that happening right now as we work our way up to the nineties. You're gonna need something strong to hang onto. Anyway, I don't
know how many of you out there know. Satan's called the God of this world. I
don't know how many of you know or how many of you don't know. But it's the
truth. Satan is called the God of this world, Prince of the Power of the Air. He owns it. That's why Jesus Christ did go to the Cross. Not only for
forgiveness of sins, but to destroy the works of the Devil. (before Solid Rock)
Thank you. Everybody ready? How many out there know you have eternal
life? How many of you don’t? I'll tell you a sad thing I saw one time. I saw a drowning
man pull down a man who was trying to rescue him, and they both drowned. Did
you hear me now? (before What Can I Do For You?)
All right, thank you. On the keyboards tonight, from Muscle Shoals,
