My grandparents used to go to the Singing in the Smokeys. They had all their albums and I used to sit and list to them for hours. I thank GOD for my grandparents and their faithfulness and their prayers that no doubt brought me to the saving knowledge of our Lord and Savior JESUS CHRIST. They never pounded it in instead they lived it. I remember following my grandfather around in the garden asking him a million questions. I'm sure it drove him crazy but He never got annoyed. He was the most patient, kind and loving man I've ever known. I saw JESUS through him and in the life he lived. He taught me more about living for CHRIST without speaking a word. Glory to GOD because of the blood, I will see them again .... for Eternity! So remember, Live Your Faith Out Loud. You never know who may be watching. And God says, his word will not return void. You never know how God can use your word, your actions And your faith. Gary from Georgia... and unworthy and humble yet Blood Bought and sanctified servant through the blood of Christ.
Dear brother, Gary, Your comments about your grandparents really touched my heart. You were blessed by the testimony of your grandparents and what a reunion it will be when we all get to Heaven! Thank you for sharing your precious memories with us.
That is the problem now, so many churches and preachers have taken the BLOOD out,many of them dont even preach about it anymore,because it upsets a lot of people,but when a person dies with out being washed in the BLOOD of JESUS,that is when they are really going to be upset.
Unfortunately, that ole Devil found a way to delete preaching on the Blood of Jesus Christ, as well as preaching in favor of Holy Living, preaching about Hell, The Lake of Fire and Brimstone, Sin, and how to avoid going to The Lake of Fire and Brimstone. Yep! That ol' Devil came up with the Ultimate CHEAP SUBSTITUTE!!! It's called the Ecumenical Movement. You know, that "Movement" that believes in love, love, love, and grace, grace, grace...but no preaching on Repentance, Sin, Holy Living, The Great White Throne Judgement (Which is the judgement for everyone who died in sin), and The Lake of Fire and Brimstone! Yep! Sadly, because people wanted it made easier on themselves, and didn't want to have their sins dealt with, down here on Earth, by Receiving the Lord Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord, and then dumping the sin business... They're gonna deal with it, at the Great White Throne Judgement! Some Men's sins go before, and some Men's sins follow after. Id rather have my sins go before, by receiving Jesus Christ as my Savior and Lord, than to have a judgement day to have to stand before God, with all that unconfessed sin and mess to have to burn in the Lake of Fire and Brimstone for! Yep. I'm one of those Old-Timers, that believes in the Old -Fashioned way!
It is impossible to not get inspired listening to Archie Watkins when he takes his tenor to the lead in song . He really put his all in it whenever he sang . And that's what makes him one of the very best in Southern Gospel ...For this I can tolerate Google... ...The Glory Of The Lord Shall Prevail...
"When the battle's over and victory is won, I'll go home through the blood of the Father's only Son". This has always been true and ALWAYS will be! Nothing we did, nothing good we did here, just the saving Blood of Jesus.
And it's still the Blood that saves from Sin It's still the Blood that Cleanses within. From the Highest Star in Heaven to the depths of the sea. It is still the Blood of Jesus that brings Victory to me.
Amen & Amen!!...It is still the Blood of Jesus, no other powers beside the power in the blood of Jesus that can save,santify & set one free from the bondage of SIN..
And it's still the blood that saves from sin, it's still the blood that cleanses within. From the highest star in heaven to the depths of the sea. it's still the blood of Jesus that brings victory to me.
Yes, it's STILL the blood of Jesus that brings VICTORY TO ME! Thank you, Jesus, for shedding your precious blood on Calvary. Oh! Jesus, let me burn til I burn out for Thee! Amen!
I found this song about two years ago and it has never failed to be a gospel pick me up! Just about every week as I preach I point to the bloody cross of Jesus as salvation for lost souls, and 25 years in have yet to anyone balk now I preach in a rural area to be fair but Iam reminded of Elijah taking issue with God that he is the only one left serving God and God informed him that He had 7000 who had not bent the knee to baal So take heart Child of God there are literally millions on this planet that know the blood of Jesus is the only way to Heaven
Truth and Gospel in the songs of the inspirations quartet. Can't tell you how many times a inspirations song brought the holy spirit to me when I was down and out. Thank you Jesus Christ for your servants
I've bought and listened to their music through the decades. How their music helped me through some dark times. I just love this group. We've gotten a lot older together. Their.. I was standing on the banks of a river last night...They're part of my life it seems..
How true this song is.It is stil the sweet BLOOD of JESUS,a lot of people don't want to hear that anymore,but that don't matter,it still is a fact,with out the Blood of JESUS,people will burn 4 ever in hell.
If we join God, Christ, the angels in Heaven it will be through THE BLOOD OF CHRIST - because THERE IS NO OTHER WAY! Thank you inspirations for singing TRUTH!
Preise God bless you guys are doing pretty well good for the last time you can give them more information about your music is very important and you can do anything else and the Lord
It's Still The Blood Once I wandered in sins black night There was no way to make my wrongs right. Then the Old Accuser to the Lord did cry He is the Sinner and now He must die. Then I heard a voice say Father I'll go And I'll pay his Sin debt in Calvary's flow. I'll bare in my body the marks of the Cross To Save this Child who is Sin sick and lost. And it's still the Blood that saves from Sin It's still the Blood that Cleanses within. From the Highest Star in Heaven to the depths of the sea. It is still the Blood of Jesus that brings Victory to me. There are those who rely on works that they do And some men count on the times they Prayed thru But when the Battles over and Victory is won I'll go home through the Blood of the Father's only Son. And it's still the Blood that saves from Sin It's still the Blood that Cleanses within. From the Highest Star in Heaven to the depths of the sea. It is still the Blood of Jesus that brings Victory to me.
Nothing but the blood. Without Jesus dieing on the cross of Calvary we would ALL be in a mess. Thank God for the blood of Jesus Christ. John 3:16 - 17. John 3: 16 For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 16. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 1 John 1:7. But if we walk in the light,we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his son cleanseth us from all sin.
Heaven what a place!! It's all habout His kingdom come on fishers of men. How many fish have you caught is your well full or have you forgot you were purged from your sin for His glory.The Kingdom of God is at hand. Start to look at people as souls. It is still the blood that saves from sin!!!!!
May I share this with you, if you don't mind? The Bible says in Ephesians 2:8-9 KJV For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast. I hope you already know God for yourself, but if you don't know Him you can know Him today. Jesus suffered, bled and died to pay for your sins and mine, out of love for us! Salvation is in faith, but one must first realize that they are a lost sinner and will die and burn in hell for all eternity without Christ. Once we see ourselves, all one needs to do is repent of their sins, and put their faith in God: believe with all their heart that He will forgive every sin. And ask Him to save their soul from hell with all faith and all sincerity! Believe in God and He will save you today. If you have never gone to God and repented of your sins and put your faith in Him, now is the time my friend.
