Voice Of Jesus Saves

| When I heard this report and I sat there and I said, okay, my publicist Diane Rogers and I were talking. | |
| You saw us in the picture with the president. | |
| And I said, you know, she says, in King Truth, didn't you talk about how God spoke to you and saved your life? | |
| She says, tell that. | |
| And it's here. | |
| It's in the full account. | |
| It's here. | |
| So you're crazy. | |
| So that's it. | |
| So I said, you know, I was driving home and it was in a storm and a tree limb actually fell on my car with a live wire. | |
| And so I was immediately, I just, I heard a voice, honestly. | |
| I said, oh, Jesus. | |
| And I heard a voice say, be still and know that I am God. | |
| Now, that's scripture. | |
| That's in the Bible. | |
| So I heard, and I just stopped right there. | |
| My foot actually was on the brake and it stayed there. | |
| But I just sat there. | |
| I don't know how long. | |
| And I touched nothing because this was a long time ago in the 70s and the cars were more metal. | |
| The instant responders showed up. | |
| They said, ma'am, they knocked on the window and they used something to open the door. | |
| They said, are you all right? | |
| I said, yes. | |
| Ma'am, if you had touched anything on this car, you would be dead. | |
| Because that live wire would have become a conduit. | |
| Everything would have fried me. | |
| And so then I remembered the Holy Spirit spoke to me right then and said, your uncle in his famous sermon, A Knock at Midnight, said, I heard, Martin Luther King Jr., I heard the voice of Jesus say, Martin Luther King, stand up for truth, stand up for justice. | |
| And lo, I will never leave you, even unto the end of the earth. | |
| My uncle said he heard the voice of Jesus. | |
| So was Uncle M. L. crazy? | |
| I don't think so. | |
| No. | |
| And he stood up. | |
| He stood up for truth and justice. | |
| He began from that day on because as a young man, he challenged his daddy's religion. | |
| He studied all the religions of the world and God, this, God, that. | |
| But that day, God became so real to Martin Luther King Jr. | |
