I grew up on the old hymns which is my religious foundation for my adult life ❤ and will carry me through til death. Still sing them in the shower...in the kitchen while I'm cooking...when I am done praying ...all day long . So glad!!❤
I love that. My mama did the same thing and here I am doing it too at 74 years old. God Bless you, honey and thank you. I don't you here but I will know you there. 😊
Love this style of singing.. It touches me way down, Don't like the new church songs.. threy don't touch you way down... I love to play them on my piano everyday.. Keith...
My husband played this song the morning before he died. At only 5 months of marriage and 22 years of age, I was a widow, only hours after us listening to this song and he leaving for a trip. Needless to say, it was sung at his homegoing after "He's Preparing Me" by Darryl Coley. This song will always be significant in my life! 🙏🏾
Hi my dearest God Blessed Individual, I pray that The Almighty God Will Surely bring Healing And Peace To your Soul, That surpasseth all Understanding. I admire your courage and strength.Keep inspired.
This younger generation would do well to learn these hymns and carry them forward, as I learned from my grandparents and parents. Those are the songs that raised me, weaned me, guided me, strengthened me, and carry me to this day at almost 60 years of age. There's nothing like the hymns of the Church!
I just heard this hymn again in Church yesterday and I loved it !!!!! I started crying and told my mom after "that's a good one" sniff. I'm in my later 20s and there some hymns that are just so amazing ! It helps that my mom is a amazing singer and she sang this hymn soo well.... I wish more people would know some of these amazing hymns !
Heard and sang this beautiful hymn hundreds of times when I was a child, Now that most of my life is behind me, I'm beginning to think about the last days of my life, and this hymn is taking on more of a personal meaning for me.
Near the cross beautiful song when I was a young girl i would hear this song at my grandparent baptist church back in days did,t mean much to me than but now that I am 61 years young this beautiful song means so much to me now than its did thank.my soul cry out.jesus keep me near the cross To God be the Glory.
I miss this kind of Church music Thank you for taking me back I hope one day soon the doors of the Church will be open again shouting out From Detroit Michigan Amen
I remember! Gloria Etheredge and Audrey Richards- Senior Musical Choir, Brookland Baptist Church West Columbia SC~Circa1985. We sang this song for at least 20 minutes. The Holy Ghost showed up. I long to see this style of worship again.
PRAISE THE LORD!!! I don't know about anyone else, maybe it's because I was raised in church and know these songs, but..... even just listening to the music I hear the words. It's like the instruments sing the words.
Never ever stop singing these songs this is what will get you through the trials and tribulations but first and foremost making Jesus Christ your Lord and Savior then you'll know and this becomes more than just a song.
This is what I grew up on. Lord I understand what my Mother and Grandmother was singing about. I can listen to this all day. Yes!!! He will give you rest. 🙏
When I watch my beautiful black sisters a d brothers sing these wonderful songs that we have relied on to carry us through the hard times of life I feel a sense of sadness because I’m reminded in Mark 7 where Christ said we honor Him with our lips but our hearts are far from Him. I know now why He says that because my people go out and cast votes for people who love to kill the unborn, who agrees with people who believe homosexuality and same sex marriage is right, who know how to incite us to tear up to enhance their political agendas, who allow themselves to be used in ways that does nothing but enrich the people they support! Wake up black Christians, time is of the essence !
Pat Jackson I nearly always am grieved by a person who lumps Christians into entire political parties, as if there is any joy in the loss of an unborn child. Is there joy in homosexual orientation? Is there joy in a hating spirit? Is there joy to placing children in cages? Is there a joy to chasing down the alien in your midst who harvests the food you eat yet to whom you allow the government to deport? Is there joy in lies and deceptions? Do you watch Fox National News to get your news which is not truthful? We have drunk from wells other people have dug. Do you discern with the ability that the Holy Spirit has given you? Sometimes you have to break through the lines someone else has drawn and say enough is enough!
Bless you sister. The Lord unifies; the devil divided from the beginning. “Go into all the world” includes the world of policy making and social action. We are to live for Christ, walk in the Spirit and do the good things that God has prepared for us to do. Never cease standing firm on the sure foundation and speaking out loud and clear for what is right. I hope that by God’s grace alone that one day I will stand beside you and these beloved ones in glory and worship the Lamb together, for though my sins were as crimson through Calvary I am washed whiter than the snow. We are all one in Christ Jesus. Yours sincerely, a white bond slave to Christ in England.
My Grandmother said there were only two books necessary in the church, the Bible and the Hymn Book. Jesus Keep ME Near The Cross! Hallelujah! Glory To GOD for that precious, precious fountain.
Beloved, I don't know you in person but God know you. God ministered to me in a revelation when I was on your profile to see things around you,I saw blessings but spiritual attacks holding onto them,in prayers,i saw a woman in the realm of the spirit monitoring and plotting delay in your life, with an evil mirror, and with motive to destroy. But as I speak to you now her time is up, Render hand of favour with Anything you can afford or give to these motherless foundation (Godstime MOTHERLESS FOUNDATION) in kebbi state Nigeria before 2DAYS with faith, as I Rise my hands towards heaven and pray for you they shall serve as point of contact wherever you are, you will receive double portion of grace to excel and total restoration of breakthrough in your life and in the life of your family. Ask for their acct details and help them call the MD in charge of the orphanage to get their details on (WhatsApp or call them now on +2348154975597) tell him I sent you. For it is not by might nor by in power but of the spirit saith the lord (zechariah 4:6). You shall testify to the Glory of God in your life. God bless you in Jesus name.
The old hymns of zion will always be the best hymns. These songs speak to the spirit and soul of a person. My spirit is moved when I hear these hymns sung. They don't sing these songs anymore; how I miss these old hymns.
This gospel song Jesus keep me near the cross is one of my favorite song when I was a little girl going to my grandparent church new Salem Baptist missionary church and this gospel song and I have and I will always love this song it like its in my blood and i am now 61 years young today 7/27/2022 and Its will ALWAYS be my one if my favorite and the other gospel song the blood of Jesus WILL never lose its power. To God be the Glory. 🙏 Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Jesus is lord.
***Greetings, Beloved of God. This message is lengthy but, it is very important. The ancient Israelites was tested by the Sabbath commandment to see if they would keep God’s law or no in Exodus 16:4- Do not be surprised if God allow man to do a similar test, enforce some type of Sabbath law to see if we will keep His law or no. ************************************************ Right now, we all do not see eye to eye, but, please hear me out.............. There is no way anyone can prove from the KJV Bible that Saturday, Sunday, etc. is the biblical seventh day Sabbaths. For, the words Saturday, Sunday, etc. do not appear in the Bible. A continuous Saturday, Sunday, etc., “man made Sabbaths” ARE NOT the true Bible Sabbaths because they are not calculated by true time. God’s true time is written in Genesis 1:14. When God commanded us to keep a seventh day Sabbath, kill the Passover on the 14th day of the first month, keep the day of atonement on the 10th day of the seventh month, etc......would He not have given us a calendar/Time to find these dates? Yes, He would have and He did, in Genesis 1:14. We are commanded to keep the days, years, etc. by the lights in heaven (the sun, moon and stars.) God did not specify which days, so, we must conclude that He meant for all of His 3 category of days to be kept by the lights in heaven. *********** The Sabbath command is one of the Ten Commandments listed in Exodus 20. It is just as important as the other nine and God commands us to keep it. Multitudes of people think and teach that we are only required to keep 9 of God’s Ten Commandments. My Friend, if we think this way, we are already deceived. ***The Sabbath is a feast. Leviticus 23:1-3 ***The moon is for seasons. Psalms 104:19 ***The lights in heaven are for seasons, etc. Genesis 1:14 ***The words “feast” and “season” comes from the same Hebrew word, MOED. ***MOED is, appointed times, appointments, feast, season, etc. The Sabbath is a MOED, an appointed time , a feast, a season, etc. Therefore, the moon, along with the other lights in heaven, are for Sabbaths. THE SABBATH IS TO BE CALCULATED BY THE TIME GOD ORDAINED IN THE BEGINNING OF CREATION NOT BY MAN’S TIME/CALENDARS. Who can prove from Genesis 1:14 that the Sabbath day is not calculated by the lights in heaven? Although many have tried, it cannot be refuted!! Take a glimpse at the dates in Genesis 7:11 and Genesis 8:4,13,14. Are these dates calculated by the Time God commanded in Genesis 1:14 or by the Gregorian time or some other man made time? ********** There are about 167 countries that keep Sunday as the seventh day and the remaining, approximately, 64 countries keep Saturday as the seventh day. If there is a “seventh day Sunday law” enforced and the remaining 64 countries change their calendars to read Sunday as the seventh day, then, the world will be keeping Sunday the seventh day as the Sabbath. Mon. Tue. Wed. Thur. Fri. Sat. Sunday Law 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7 What day will you and I then keep as the Sabbath? Already today, there are “Sunday Blue Laws” on government books. Man can change “their” time anytime and deceive the world under the leadership of Satan. We must calculate God’s Sabbath by God’s Time so The Great Deceiver can not trick us about the true Sabbath and “cause” us to worship him. “ He will think to change time and laws.” says Daniel 7:25 He only “THOUGHT” to change time when He “supposedly” had replaced God’s calendar with his calendar on earth. For he could not and has not truly change time because God’s Time sits in the heavens where no man can tamper with it! The sun, moon and stars, the lights in heaven, are God’s Time/Calendar. *********** God’s Calendar has three category of days, the new moon day, the six work days and the Sabbath day. 2 Kings 4:18-23 & Ezekiel 46:1-3. The new moon day is the first day of the month, the beginning of months. These days never, ever, ever overlaps each other on God’s Time! ........However, this is not true on the famous Gregorian calendar. The new moon day falls anywhere and everywhere on that calendar, in a given month. For example, sometimes, the new moon day falls on a “man made Saturday Sabbath”, on a “man made Sunday Sabbath”, in the midst of the month, etc. How can it both be the first day of the month and the seventh day Sabbath? How can the first day of the month start in the midst of a month? God said in Genesis 1:14 to, let the lights in heaven be for days, etc. So, which one or ones of God’s three category of days are kept by the lights in heaven? ...The new moon day? ...The six work days? ...The Sabbath day? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Example of God’s months: 1st week... new moon day, six work days and Sabbath day 2nd, 3rd, 4th weeks....six work days and Sabbath day The next month the cycle starts over. God’s months reset. Read Luke 6:1 Man uses this same concept. For example: The 1st and 3rd Sunday in August, the 1st and 3rd Sunday in September.” “The 2nd and 4th Sabbath in April, the 2nd and 4th Sabbath in May.” Note: There is never, never, ever, ever, 5 weekly Sabbaths in any one of God’s months. This is not true on the Gregorian calendar. Sometimes, there are 5 weekly “Gregorian Sabbaths.” This is not in align with true time. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I believe there is a great deception coming to get people to worship Satan through a false Calendar/Sabbath controversy. God is a God of truth. God guides people by His truth. God’s Word is truth. Truth is our shield and buckler. Truth will keep us from all deceptions, the mark of beast, etc. Christ did not suffer on the cross for us to walk in a lie and continue to cling to our traditions! He did not die for us to keep obeying the “voice of man” above “the voice of God!” Read the stories about “King Saul” in 1 Samuel 15 and the “man of God” in 1 king 13. Let us learn a lesson from these testimonies....Obey God’s Voice! When we do and teach man’s commandments for doctrine, it is vain! It is useless! God does not honor it! There will be no reward! Again! there is a great possibility some type of “Man made Sabbath Law” could be enforced. These latter days crises seems to be pointing in that direction. If this is not true, then, we do not have to worry about it......But..... ....If it is truth then, we need to become more knowledgeable about this subject in order to make the right decision whom we will honor and serve.
A Sabbath test will reveal those who believe Gods Word in Genesis 1:14 and those who do not believe His Word. Whether there is or whether there is not a “Sabbath Test”, we still need to know the truth about God’s Time written in the Word of God so we can be obedient in all things. ***Worship Him that made heaven, earth and sea. ***Babylon is fallen! Babylon is fallen! ***Do not worship the Beast and receive his mark, whosoever does, will be eternal lost and be burnt with fire and brimstones. ****Read Revelation 13 & 14 This truth about God’s Calendar/Time and The Sabbath written in Genesis 1:14, Leviticus 23:1-3, Psalms 104:19, etc.is spreading throughout the four corners of the earth. This message enrages many who claim to be followers of Christ because they can not refute it. It seems, the people outside the church buildings are the ones eagerly accepting it and believing it. Please let us consider what is being said here and further research this important subject before it is to late. Peace and Love Friends of God
My name is paul and I'm in unbearable pain and I'm lost and need to be found and somewhere I lost the lord and am in shackles and chains inside my heart and soul and dealing with a lung disease that will take me from the earth
Whew Lawd!!!! I needed this today❗ My 83 yr old Mother's declining rapidly from Dementia. The battles are minute by minute. This am she was on "opposite mode" during bathroom/shower time. I prayed out loud, I reasoned (duh on me), I kept silent, I constantly thanked her for letting me clean her, and the whole nine, BUT IT WASN'T UNTIL THIS SING WAS DROPPED IN MY SPIRIT AND I RUclips'd and GOD SHOWED ME THIS, THAT SHE CALMED DOWN AND TOTALLY COOPERATED 🙏🙏🙏 Bless U and your wonderful ministry of music 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
My mother too has dementia. She ie also hard of hearing. She will be 90yrs old in September. If she puts my phone next to her ear, she may not hear but she pats her foot. And she asks me if I know these people. Be encouraged.
Oh my goodness this is my number one gospel song since I was a little girl at new Salem Baptist Church in Columbus where my grand Pa and grand ma praise our God day in and day out and it's still my favorite gospel song and I am 63 years young TO GOD BE THE GLORY. 😊
The old hymns were rich in their lyrical content and in the deep in meaning. There are some good modern “worship” songs but the hymns that many of us grew up with are special for what they had to say. They were sermons in themselves.
The hymn "Jesus Keep Me Near The Cross" covers all gatherings and perfectly fits any circumstance or situation!! Just learn all of the lyrics and verses, thus surrendering your heart to the sacrifice that Jesus gave on Calvary!!
This song brings lot of memories, GOD is good, without GOD and JESUS i am nothing, bless everyone reading this and have a great future, listen spread the gospel ,beware of false prophets .God will be with you and i till the end of time believe me a blessing is coming your way this night 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🙏🙏🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏

@ Deloris Jenkins I Will keep both of you in prayers....I may not know you or your husband,however....Our Heavenly Father knows!! God Bless you,Both🙏🏾🙏🏾
This song represents my conversion ,Jesus took me to the cross a mighty one in a vision and brought me back from beyond the river telling me I have received the Spirit of Truth and ever since I have found rest for my soul.
Songs such as this are what's missing in churches of today..... Remember," Sweet Hour of Prayer"/ " Tis Thee Old Ship of Zion"/ " Oh How I Love Jesus"/ " Yield Not to Temptation"/" Jesus is on the main line,tell him what you want" "Glory Glory Hallelujah Since I laid my burdens down " /We Come this Far By Faith"( Our Choir used to march in on that particular song!!) I thank my Lord and Savior for growing up in the era,that I did. Back when Churches had Congegational Songs/ Deacons on their knees praying....during " Devotion" Oh how I miss and long for those days....Back then ,I was young/ a child....couldn't appreciate the true meanings/ lyrics of those.....Priceless/ Classic Gospel songs/ hymns. As I grew older,I began to appreciate and understand the meaning of those songs!! Thank you and God Bless you for posting this....for taking me down memory lane,where the road....never ends....😔🍃 Peace and an Abundance of Blessings to All,in 2021 and beyond.... 3/4/ 2021
I will always love these old gospel songs. They speak to the heart, soul, mind, organs, in fact the entire body. They send a quickening over our mortal bodies. Thank you YAHSHUA, HALLELUJAH to your HOLY NAME.

I just love to watch this video…watching it just bring me back to my childhood days with my father this was one of is favorite songs whenever time he is at home and doing any art work this is the song he will draw for and him start to hum it…..🎤👱🏽♂️Jesus keep me near the cross” and as a child I will just sit down and listen to him as he hum while doing is artist job honestly these songs are really memorable songs…with tears in my eyes all I have now for my dad is memorable moments my dad may your soul Rest In Peace…thank you pastor and your choir for that song I wish u could just play the piano a bit longer it really evoke my life
I pastor in Watertown NY AND ABOUT TWENTY YEARS I WAS FRIENDS WITH THE REVEREND CLATE BOARDERS. I would always ask him to sing this song we became very good friends but he retired Army and decided to go homi think that was West Virginia but I will always remember clay and this song
This pastor played it the ol’ vay jes’ like it tis in the hymnal - note for note. That took me back to my home church in the 1960’s when Senior Choirs 1 & 2 would sing it with our old Wicks (Casavant) pipe organ. The ladies on the choir then wore those black four corner hats and black tassels. (Anybody remember that?) Anyway, there was a special anointing when he played it straight that way. It emphasized the words more that the secondary dominant 7th, 13th, major 7th, minor 7th-9th, or inverted 13th-9th tetra chord chordal improvisations that we now use in our contemporary “gospelized” hymn styles today. When a song is REALLY anointed like this Fanny Crosby hit, it may be played in various styles, but words are the most important thing for the message lies mainly in the lyrics.

This is one of the most spiritual songs that usually lift the soul but they have sung it wrongly. When sung in its raw form, it draws the redeemed closer to the Cross.
Just a day here would be worth more than a thousand elsewhere.
I grew up on the old hymns which is my religious foundation for my adult life ❤ and will carry me through til death. Still sing them in the shower...in the kitchen while I'm cooking...when I am done praying ...all day long . So glad!!❤
I love that. My mama did the same thing and here I am doing it too at 74 years old. God Bless you, honey and thank you.
I don't you here but I will know you there. 😊
Love this style of singing.. It touches me way down, Don't like the new church songs.. threy don't touch you way down... I love to play them on my piano everyday.. Keith...
These old hymns will get you through some strong trials. The power of these words have blessed my life for years. And still today.
Well said. Amen🙏🏽
My husband played this song the morning before he died. At only 5 months of marriage and 22 years of age, I was a widow, only hours after us listening to this song and he leaving for a trip. Needless to say, it was sung at his homegoing after "He's Preparing Me" by Darryl Coley. This song will always be significant in my life! 🙏🏾
My condolences

This younger generation would do well to learn these hymns and carry them forward, as I learned from my grandparents and parents. Those are the songs that raised me, weaned me, guided me, strengthened me, and carry me to this day at almost 60 years of age. There's nothing like the hymns of the Church!
It's down right sinful that we're losing this at a rapid pace .
Totally Agree
Yes indeed! I am 55 and when I tell you it touches my soul.
I just heard this hymn again in Church yesterday and I loved it !!!!! I started crying and told my mom after "that's a good one" sniff. I'm in my later 20s and there some hymns that are just so amazing ! It helps that my mom is a amazing singer and she sang this hymn soo well.... I wish more people would know some of these amazing hymns !
That's the type of music that will help get you through life
The old hymns of the church will keep you. Contemporary gospel is great. But those hymns of old will carry you through.
YES YES YES🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Awesome
Yes! Yes!
I am still of the old school with these old hymns, such as 'Jesus keeps me near the cross'. Those old hymns jubliates my soul always.
Yes
I love this song!!!!! Whenever l get down, troubled, and sad. 😢, l sing it and now it’s gonna be alright!!!
Heard and sang this beautiful hymn hundreds of times when I was a child, Now that most of my life is behind me, I'm beginning to think about the last days of my life, and this hymn is taking on more of a personal meaning for me.
Near the cross beautiful song when I was a young girl i would hear this song at my grandparent baptist church back in days did,t mean much to me than but now that I am 61 years young this beautiful song means so much to me now than its did thank.my soul cry out.jesus keep me near the cross To God be the Glory.
I miss this kind of Church music Thank you for taking me back I hope one day soon the doors of the Church will be open again shouting out From Detroit Michigan Amen
Cchhuuurrccchhh
I miss this kind of singing. This is old fashioned church singing
I remember! Gloria Etheredge and Audrey Richards- Senior Musical Choir, Brookland Baptist Church West Columbia SC~Circa1985. We sang this song for at least 20 minutes. The Holy Ghost showed up. I long to see this style of worship again.
PRAISE THE LORD!!! I don't know about anyone else, maybe it's because I was raised in church and know these songs, but..... even just listening to the music I hear the words. It's like the instruments sing the words.

You are a p.k. kids mother &?fathers

This is what I grew up on. Lord I understand what my Mother and Grandmother was singing about. I can listen to this all day. Yes!!! He will give you rest. 🙏
Yes!
There is nothing like the old songs. There is a blessing in songs and a word from God to thanks so much 💗
CAROLYN WHEN THE CHURCH STOPS SINGING THESE SONGS, WE WILL NOT HAVE A CHURCH ANYMORE.
When I watch my beautiful black sisters a d brothers sing these wonderful songs that we have relied on to carry us through the hard times of life I feel a sense of sadness because I’m reminded in Mark 7 where Christ said we honor Him with our lips but our hearts are far from Him. I know now why He says that because my people go out and cast votes for people who love to kill the unborn, who agrees with people who believe homosexuality and same sex marriage is right, who know how to incite us to tear up to enhance their political agendas, who allow themselves to be used in ways that does nothing but enrich the people they support! Wake up black Christians, time is of the essence !
Pat Jackson I nearly always am grieved by a person who lumps Christians into entire political parties, as if there is any joy in the loss of an unborn child. Is there joy in homosexual orientation? Is there joy in a hating spirit? Is there joy to placing children in cages? Is there a joy to chasing down the alien in your midst who harvests the food you eat yet to whom you allow the government to deport? Is there joy in lies and deceptions? Do you watch Fox National News to get your news which is not truthful? We have drunk from wells other people have dug. Do you discern with the ability that the Holy Spirit has given you? Sometimes you have to break through the lines someone else has drawn and say enough is enough!
Bless you sister. The Lord unifies; the devil divided from the beginning. “Go into all the world” includes the world of policy making and social action. We are to live for Christ, walk in the Spirit and do the good things that God has prepared for us to do. Never cease standing firm on the sure foundation and speaking out loud and clear for what is right. I hope that by God’s grace alone that one day I will stand beside you and these beloved ones in glory and worship the Lamb together, for though my sins were as crimson through Calvary I am washed whiter than the snow. We are all one in Christ Jesus. Yours sincerely, a white bond slave to Christ in England.
My Grandmother said there were only two books necessary in the church, the Bible and the Hymn Book. Jesus Keep ME Near The Cross! Hallelujah! Glory To GOD for that precious, precious fountain.
Beloved, I don't know you in person but God know you. God ministered to me in a revelation when I was on your profile to see things around you,I saw blessings but spiritual attacks holding onto them,in prayers,i saw a woman in the realm of the spirit monitoring and plotting delay in your life, with an evil mirror, and with motive to destroy. But as I speak to you now her time is up, Render hand of favour with Anything you can afford or give to these motherless foundation (Godstime MOTHERLESS FOUNDATION) in kebbi state Nigeria before 2DAYS with faith, as I Rise my hands towards heaven and pray for you they shall serve as point of contact wherever you are, you will receive double portion of grace to excel and total restoration of breakthrough in your life and in the life of your family. Ask for their acct details and help them call the MD in charge of the orphanage to get their details on (WhatsApp or call them now on +2348154975597) tell him I sent you. For it is not by might nor by in power but of the spirit saith the lord (zechariah 4:6). You shall testify to the Glory of God in your life. God bless you in Jesus name.

These are the type of songs that has grown my soul , thank you Lord for the so called old fashion songs !!
The old hymns of zion will always be the best hymns. These songs speak to the spirit and soul of a person. My spirit is moved when I hear these hymns sung. They don't sing these songs anymore; how I miss these old hymns.
Great
GOD is GOOD
If a nation isn't moved by these hymns then their dead spiritual.

ONE OF ME THEME SONGS OF WORSHIP & PRAISE FOREVERMORE
My God today!!!!! This song will NEVER get old!!!!!
Jesus Keep Me Near The Cross is my prayer every day. These are the songs that we need to hear in these trouble times. Thank you Mt. Zion Fellowship
***Greetings, Beloved of God. This message is lengthy but, it is very important.
The ancient Israelites was tested by the Sabbath commandment to see if they would keep God’s law or no in Exodus 16:4-
Do not be surprised if God allow man to do a similar test, enforce some type of Sabbath law to see if we will keep His law or no.
************************************************
Right now, we all do not see eye to eye, but, please hear me out..............
There is no way anyone can prove from the KJV Bible that Saturday, Sunday, etc. is the biblical seventh day Sabbaths. For, the words Saturday, Sunday, etc. do not appear in the Bible.
A continuous Saturday, Sunday, etc., “man made Sabbaths” ARE NOT the true Bible Sabbaths because they are not calculated by true time. God’s true time is written in Genesis 1:14.
When God commanded us to keep a seventh day Sabbath, kill the Passover on the 14th day of the first month, keep the day of atonement on the 10th day of the seventh month, etc......would He not have given us a calendar/Time to find these dates?
Yes, He would have and He did, in Genesis 1:14. We are commanded to keep the days, years, etc. by the lights in heaven (the sun, moon and stars.)
God did not specify which days, so, we must conclude that He meant for all of His 3 category of days to be kept by the lights in heaven.
***********
The Sabbath command is one of the Ten Commandments listed in Exodus 20. It is just as important as the other nine and God commands us to keep it.
Multitudes of people think and teach that we are only required to keep 9 of God’s Ten Commandments. My Friend, if we think this way, we are already deceived.
***The Sabbath is a feast. Leviticus 23:1-3
***The moon is for seasons. Psalms 104:19
***The lights in heaven are for seasons, etc. Genesis 1:14
***The words “feast” and “season” comes from the same Hebrew word, MOED.
***MOED is, appointed times, appointments, feast, season, etc.
The Sabbath is a MOED, an appointed time , a feast, a season, etc. Therefore, the moon, along with the other lights in heaven, are for Sabbaths.
THE SABBATH IS TO BE CALCULATED BY THE TIME GOD ORDAINED IN THE BEGINNING OF CREATION NOT BY MAN’S TIME/CALENDARS.
Who can prove from Genesis 1:14 that the Sabbath day is not calculated by the lights in heaven? Although many have tried, it cannot be refuted!!
Take a glimpse at the dates in Genesis 7:11 and Genesis 8:4,13,14. Are these dates calculated by the Time God commanded in Genesis 1:14 or by the Gregorian time or some other man made time?
**********
There are about 167 countries that keep Sunday as the seventh day and the remaining, approximately, 64 countries keep Saturday as the seventh day.
If there is a “seventh day Sunday law” enforced and the remaining 64 countries change their calendars to read Sunday as the seventh day, then, the world will be keeping Sunday the seventh day as the Sabbath.
Mon. Tue. Wed. Thur. Fri. Sat. Sunday Law
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7
What day will you and I then keep as the Sabbath?
Already today, there are “Sunday Blue Laws” on government books.
Man can change “their” time anytime and deceive the world under the leadership of Satan. We must calculate God’s Sabbath by God’s Time so The Great Deceiver can not trick us about the true Sabbath and “cause” us to worship him.
“ He will think to change time and laws.” says Daniel 7:25
He only “THOUGHT” to change time when He “supposedly” had replaced God’s calendar with his calendar on earth. For he could not and has not truly change time because God’s Time sits in the heavens where no man can tamper with it! The sun, moon and stars, the lights in heaven, are God’s Time/Calendar.
***********
God’s Calendar has three category of days, the new moon day, the six work days and the Sabbath day. 2 Kings 4:18-23 & Ezekiel 46:1-3. The new moon day is the first day of the month, the beginning of months. These days never, ever, ever overlaps each other on God’s Time!
........However, this is not true on the famous Gregorian calendar. The new moon day falls anywhere and everywhere on that calendar, in a given month.
For example, sometimes, the new moon day falls on a “man made Saturday Sabbath”, on a “man made Sunday Sabbath”, in the midst of the month, etc.
How can it both be the first day of the month and the seventh day Sabbath?
How can the first day of the month start in the midst of a month?
God said in Genesis 1:14 to, let the lights in heaven be for days, etc.
So, which one or ones of God’s three category of days are kept by the lights in heaven?
...The new moon day?
...The six work days?
...The Sabbath day?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Example of God’s months:
1st week... new moon day, six work days and Sabbath day
2nd, 3rd, 4th weeks....six work days and Sabbath day
The next month the cycle starts over.
God’s months reset. Read Luke 6:1
Man uses this same concept. For example:
The 1st and 3rd Sunday in August, the 1st and 3rd Sunday in September.”
“The 2nd and 4th Sabbath in April, the 2nd and 4th Sabbath in May.”
Note: There is never, never, ever, ever, 5 weekly Sabbaths in any one of God’s months.
This is not true on the Gregorian calendar. Sometimes, there are 5 weekly “Gregorian Sabbaths.” This is not in align with true time.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I believe there is a great deception coming to get people to worship Satan through a false Calendar/Sabbath controversy.
God is a God of truth. God guides people by His truth. God’s Word is truth. Truth is our shield and buckler. Truth will keep us from all deceptions, the mark of beast, etc.
Christ did not suffer on the cross for us to walk in a lie and continue to cling to our traditions! He did not die for us to keep obeying the “voice of man” above “the voice of God!”
Read the stories about “King Saul” in 1 Samuel 15 and the “man of God” in 1 king 13. Let us learn a lesson from these testimonies....Obey God’s Voice!
When we do and teach man’s commandments for doctrine, it is vain! It is useless! God does not honor it! There will be no reward!
Again! there is a great possibility some type of “Man made Sabbath Law” could be enforced. These latter days crises seems to be pointing in that direction. If this is not true, then, we do not have to worry about it......But.....
....If it is truth then, we need to become more knowledgeable about this subject in order to make the right decision whom we will honor and serve.
A Sabbath test will reveal those who believe Gods Word in Genesis 1:14 and those who do not believe His Word.
Whether there is or whether there is not a “Sabbath Test”, we still need to know the truth about God’s Time written in the Word of God so we can be obedient in all things.
***Worship Him that made heaven, earth and sea.
***Babylon is fallen! Babylon is fallen!
***Do not worship the Beast and receive his mark, whosoever does, will be eternal lost and be burnt with fire and brimstones.
****Read Revelation 13 & 14
This truth about God’s Calendar/Time and The Sabbath written in Genesis 1:14, Leviticus 23:1-3, Psalms 104:19, etc.is spreading throughout the four corners of the earth.
This message enrages many who claim to be followers of Christ because they can not refute it. It seems, the people outside the church buildings are the ones eagerly accepting it and believing it.
Please let us consider what is being said here and further research this important subject before it is to late.
Peace and Love Friends of God

Whew Lawd!!!! I needed this today❗
My 83 yr old Mother's declining rapidly from Dementia. The battles are minute by minute. This am she was on "opposite mode" during bathroom/shower time.
I prayed out loud, I reasoned (duh on me), I kept silent, I constantly thanked her for letting me clean her, and the whole nine, BUT IT WASN'T UNTIL THIS SING WAS DROPPED IN MY SPIRIT AND I RUclips'd and GOD SHOWED ME THIS, THAT SHE CALMED DOWN AND TOTALLY COOPERATED 🙏🙏🙏
Bless U and your wonderful ministry of music 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
My mother too has dementia. She ie also hard of hearing. She will be 90yrs old in September. If she puts my phone next to her ear, she may not hear but she pats her foot. And she asks me if I know these people. Be encouraged.
@@jessylbradford5437😊
God Bless her and you. Thank you for being faithful.
He’s right. When the words mean something to you, the tune put tears to my eyes.
Oh my goodness this is my number one gospel song since I was a little girl at new Salem Baptist Church in Columbus where my grand Pa and grand ma praise our God day in and day out and it's still my favorite gospel song and I am 63 years young TO GOD BE THE GLORY. 😊
This song is timeless. Praise God!
Hallelujah
Thank you Jesus ❤😂I remember that song my Bishop used to sing, he is gone to with the lord the lord 🙏
During this Pandemic it is good to know JESUS!!!!!
And after the pandemic also we should know him also.
AMEN AND AMEN‼
Yes Lord!
The old hymns were rich in their lyrical content and in the deep in meaning. There are some good modern “worship” songs but the hymns that many of us grew up with are special for what they had to say. They were sermons in themselves.
@Sheldon Berg/ 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾Amen....Truth...Speak it👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
What a song of Truth, Comfort and Perspective!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love this special church. I listen to all of their services posted.
Bring the hymnal books back into the church where they belong! These songs were meaningful to worshipers.
Keep us all near the cross even in the midst of it all!! Thank you Jesus
Amen!!!
The hymn "Jesus Keep Me Near The Cross" covers all gatherings and perfectly fits any circumstance or situation!! Just learn all of the lyrics and verses, thus surrendering your heart to the sacrifice that Jesus gave on Calvary!!
This song brings lot of memories, GOD is good, without GOD and JESUS i am nothing, bless everyone reading this and have a great future, listen spread the gospel ,beware of false prophets .God will be with you and i till the end of time believe me a blessing is coming your way this night 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🙏🙏🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏

Absolutely awesome nothing like these old anointed singing of these songs
Praise God yes Jesus keep me near the cross, hallelujah, thank you Jesus 😅❤
This feels my soul with all that is glorious of knowing who Jesus is and what he can do to be united in all our lives. Hallelujah
Songs such as this are what's missing in churches of today.....
Remember," Sweet Hour of Prayer"/ " Tis Thee Old Ship of Zion"/ " Oh How I Love Jesus"/ " Yield Not to Temptation"/" Jesus is on the main line,tell him what you want" "Glory Glory Hallelujah Since I laid my burdens down " /We Come this Far By Faith"( Our Choir used to march in on that particular song!!)
I thank my Lord and Savior for growing up in the era,that I did.
Back when Churches had Congegational Songs/ Deacons on their knees praying....during " Devotion"
Oh how I miss and long for those days....Back then ,I was young/ a child....couldn't appreciate the true meanings/ lyrics of those.....Priceless/ Classic Gospel songs/ hymns. As I grew older,I began to appreciate and understand the meaning of those songs!!
Thank you and God Bless you for posting this....for taking me down memory lane,where the road....never ends....😔🍃
Peace and an Abundance of Blessings to All,in 2021 and beyond....

But as I speak to you now her time is up, Render hand of favour with Anything you can afford or give to these motherless foundation (Godstime MOTHERLESS FOUNDATION) in kebbi state Nigeria before 2DAYS with faith, as I Rise my hands towards heaven and pray for you they shall serve as point of contact wherever you are, you will receive double portion of grace to excel and total restoration of breakthrough in your life and in the life of your family. Ask for their acct details and help them call the MD in charge of the orphanage to get their details on (WhatsApp or call them now on +2348154975597) tell him I sent you.

I just love to watch this video…watching it just bring me back to my childhood days with my father this was one of is favorite songs whenever time he is at home and doing any art work this is the song he will draw for and him start to hum it…..🎤👱🏽♂️Jesus keep me near the cross” and as a child I will just sit down and listen to him as he hum while doing is artist job honestly these songs are really memorable songs…with tears in my eyes all I have now for my dad is memorable moments my dad may your soul Rest In Peace…thank you pastor and your choir for that song I wish u could just play the piano a bit longer it really evoke my life
Hallelujah to the most high please father lead me me to the rest and peace you give in Jesus mighty name God bless you all remember Jesus is coming 🙏🙏
I pastor in Watertown NY AND ABOUT TWENTY YEARS I WAS FRIENDS WITH THE REVEREND CLATE BOARDERS. I would always ask him to sing this song we became very good friends but he retired Army and decided to go homi think that was West Virginia but I will always remember clay and this song
This pastor played it the ol’ vay jes’ like it tis in the hymnal - note for note. That took me back to my home church in the 1960’s when Senior Choirs 1 & 2 would sing it with our old Wicks (Casavant) pipe organ. The ladies on the choir then wore those black four corner hats and black tassels. (Anybody remember that?) Anyway, there was a special anointing when he played it straight that way. It emphasized the words more that the secondary dominant 7th, 13th, major 7th, minor 7th-9th, or inverted 13th-9th tetra chord chordal improvisations that we now use in our contemporary “gospelized” hymn styles today. When a song is REALLY anointed like this Fanny Crosby hit, it may be played in various styles, but words are the most important thing for the message lies mainly in the lyrics.
A-men !
To God be the glory

Rest, Rest, right about now I am mess up in the spirit, this service is still touching, Holy Jesus.
This is one of the most spiritual songs that usually lift the soul but they have sung it wrongly. When sung in its raw form, it draws the redeemed closer to the Cross.
Thi song always blessed my heart . This was my grandmothers favorite song .
Praise God I wish I could have been there
Love you all
