¤ >> WELCOME BACK TO 3ABN "TODAY
00:00:08.37\00:00:15.01
LIVE." AND WE HAD
A BREAK FIRST HOUR,
00:00:15.01\00:00:18.01
DIDN'T WE? >> OH, WE DID.
00:00:18.01\00:00:19.61
HE IS SO FUNNY. I
THINK HE IS TRYING TO TAKE
00:00:19.61\00:00:22.05
YOUR JOB. >> I KNOW.
00:00:22.05\00:00:23.92
WHAT IS THE DEAL ON THAT?
BROTHER -- LITTLE RICHARD.
00:00:23.92\00:00:28.76
WE CALL HIM
BROTHER LITTLE RICHARD.
00:00:28.76\00:00:32.33
WE'RE HERE WITH PASTOR CA
MURRAY AND PASTOR JOHN LOMACANG.
00:00:32.33\00:00:40.07
AND CA RIGHT AT THE END OF THE
FIRST HOUR, THE TOP OF THE HOUR,
00:00:40.07\00:00:44.61
YOU BROUGHT UP A REALLY GOOD
POINT, BECAUSE WE WERE PAYING,
00:00:44.61\00:00:47.84
LITTLE RICHARD THI, AND LITTLE
RICHARD -- SO WE DON'T WANT
00:00:47.84\00:00:50.81
PEOPLE TO THINK WE'RE LIPPING
UP LITTLE RICHARD, BUT WE'RE
00:00:50.81\00:00:56.32
ACTUALLY LIFTING UP THE
JESUS IN HIM NOW THAT WE SEE.
00:00:56.32\00:00:58.99
>> ABSOLUTELY. >>
YOU NOTICE WE'RE NOT
00:00:58.99\00:01:02.16
CONCENTRATING ON ALL OF HIS HIT
SONGS, AND ALL OF WHAT HE DID,
00:01:02.16\00:01:07.20
AND ALL OF HIS
LIFESTYLE. WE'RE NOT DOING THAT.
00:01:07.20\00:01:10.17
BECAUSE THAT'S NOT WHAT
THIS PROGRAM IS ALL ABOUT.
00:01:10.17\00:01:14.20
RICHARD WENT THROUGH ALL OF
THAT, NOW IT'S HIS TESTIMONY.
00:01:14.20\00:01:18.97
IF HE WANTS TO
BRING IT UP, HE CAN DO IT.
00:01:18.97\00:01:25.18
BUT ALL I KNOW IS GOD
HAS BROUGHT HIM THROUGH.
00:01:25.18\00:01:28.05
>> YES, INDEED. >>
AND HE WANTS TO BRING YOU
00:01:28.05\00:01:30.82
THROUGH. >> YES
AND IS USING HIM TO
00:01:30.82\00:01:32.99
BRING OTHERS
THROUGH. >> YEAH, ABSOLUTELY.
00:01:32.99\00:01:36.32
WELL, I GUESS WITHOUT ANY
FURTHER ADIEU, WE'LL GO TO THE
00:01:36.32\00:01:39.33
NEXT ROLL, AND WE'LL STAY WIT
YOU UNTIL BROTHER RICHARD SAYS
00:01:39.33\00:01:45.90
IT'S TIME TO TAKE A
BREAK AGAIN. [ LAUGHTER ]
00:01:45.90\00:01:48.37
>> WE WANT TO START WHEN
YOU WERE A CHILD AND WHAT IT WAS
00:01:48.37\00:01:52.11
LIKE GROWING UP IN
GEORGIA WITH YOUR PARENTS.
00:01:52.11\00:01:56.21
WHAT WAS YOUR LIFE LIKE FOR
RICHARD BEFORE LITTLE RICHARD.
00:01:56.21\00:02:01.72
>> AS I STATED. MY
DAD WAS A BOOTLEGGER.
00:02:01.72\00:02:09.12
HE SOLD MOON SHINE
WHISKEY. BACK WHEN I WAS A KID.
00:02:09.12\00:02:12.66
IT WAS HARD FOR YOU
TO DO CERTAIN THINGS.
00:02:12.66\00:02:16.67
AND IT WAS HARD JUST TO EAT.
YOU KNOW, A LOT OF PEOPLE, YOU
00:02:16.67\00:02:21.50
KNOW, YOU WOULD GO TO PEOPLE'S
HOUSE AND THERE WASN'T NO
00:02:21.50\00:02:26.68
FURNITURE. THEY WERE
SLEEPING ON THE FLOOR.
00:02:26.68\00:02:28.58
>> UH-HUH. >> AND I
REMEMBER WHEN I WAS A
00:02:28.58\00:02:32.41
BOY, IT WAS SO COLD.
THERE WASN'T NO GAS IN THE
00:02:32.41\00:02:37.59
HOUSE. MY MOTHER
WOULD TAKE AN IRON AND
00:02:37.59\00:02:43.63
WRAP IT UP IN A TOWEL AND PUT IT
AT THE FOOT OF THE BED TO HEAT
00:02:43.63\00:02:48.30
THE BED. THAT'S
HOW COLD IT WOULD BE.
00:02:48.30\00:02:51.50
THAT'S WHEN I KNEW IF SHE
ENDURED ALL OF THAT FOR US, THAT
00:02:51.50\00:02:55.27
GOD HAS TO BE A GOOD GOD.
AND NOT ONLY IS HE A GOOD GOD,
00:02:55.27\00:03:00.54
HE'S A MERCIFUL GOD. >> AMEN.
00:03:00.54\00:03:03.31
>> AND WE DIDN'T HAVE
ANYTHING. SHE HAD 12 CHILDREN
00:03:03.31\00:03:06.98
AND -- THE -- THE COUNTER WOULD
GIVE YOU A IG BAG OF BEANS.
00:03:06.98\00:03:12.35
AND THAT'S WHAT YOUR GRANDMOTHER
WOULD FEED YOU, A BIG BAG OF
00:03:12.35\00:03:16.76
RICE. >> UH-HUH.
00:03:16.76\00:03:17.66
>> AND WHEN THE BAGS GOT EMPTY,
THEY WOULD TAKE THE BAGS AND
00:03:17.66\00:03:21.90
MAKE MY SISTER A
DRESS OUT OF THE BAG.
00:03:21.90\00:03:25.23
THAT'S THE WAY WE HAD TO LIVE.
AND I NEVER KNEW I WAS GOING TO
00:03:25.23\00:03:28.67
BE FAMOUS. >> UH-HUH.
00:03:28.67\00:03:30.37
>> I NEVER KNEW I
WAS GOING TO BE FAMOUS.
00:03:30.37\00:03:33.38
>> WHEN DID YOU KNOW
YOU HAD MUSICAL ABILITIES?
00:03:33.38\00:03:36.54
>> WELL, I WAS A LITTLE GUY THAT
STAYED BUSY IN OTHER PEOPLE'S
00:03:36.54\00:03:42.72
BUSINESS THAT I
HAD NO BUSINESS IN.
00:03:42.72\00:03:45.22
[ LAUGHTER ] >> AND
-- AND -- AND WHAT I
00:03:45.22\00:03:47.49
WOULD DO WAS -- I WOULD --
I WOULD GO AROUND TO DIFFERENT
00:03:47.49\00:03:52.06
PLACES. I WOULD
SEE A BUS COMING WITH
00:03:52.06\00:03:58.53
NEW YORK ON THEIR LICENSE PLATE.
AND I WANTED TO MEET THOSE
00:03:58.53\00:04:02.54
PEOPLE, BECAUSE I HAD
NEVER BEEN TO NEW YORK.
00:04:02.54\00:04:05.14
AND THEN I WOULD SELL
DRINKS AND -- COCA-COLAS.
00:04:05.14\00:04:08.64
THEY WOULD GIVE
YOU A DIME A BUCKET.
00:04:08.64\00:04:11.51
>> OKAY. >> AND I WOULD MEET THE
00:04:11.51\00:04:13.78
ENTERTAINERS, AND I WOULD
TELL THEM, I WANT TO BE FAMOUS.
00:04:13.78\00:04:18.32
BUT MY FAVORITE WAS
SISTER ROSE [ INAUDIBLE ].
00:04:18.32\00:04:20.52
>> OKAY. >> AND SHE
MADE THE GUITAR TALK.
00:04:20.52\00:04:23.73
>> OKAY. >> AND
THIS WAS BACK WHEN I
00:04:23.73\00:04:26.16
COULD PLAY THAT
GUITAR. >> OH, YEAH.
00:04:26.16\00:04:28.73
>> AND I GOT A CHANCE TO GO
ON STAGE WITH HER ONE RIGHT.
00:04:28.73\00:04:32.23
AND SHE SAID WE HAVE GOT A
LITTLE BOY HERE NAMED LITTLE
00:04:32.23\00:04:36.74
RICHARD, AND HE SAID
HE COULD BEAT ME SINGING.
00:04:36.74\00:04:41.24
[ LAUGHTER ] >> YOU
KNOW, I WAS CRAZY TO TELL
00:04:41.24\00:04:44.01
THAT WOMAN TO HER FACE
THAT I WOULD BEAT HER SINGING.
00:04:44.01\00:04:47.05
>> IT WORKED. [ LAUGHTER ]
00:04:47.05\00:04:48.58
>> AND SHE -- SHE HAD A BIG OLD
PURSE AROUND HER WAIST FULL OF
00:04:48.58\00:04:53.56
MONEY, BUT HE HAD BALLED UP THE
MONEY AND JUST PACKED -- AND SHE
00:04:53.56\00:04:58.66
GAVE ME TW
HANDSFUL OF THOSE. >> WOW.
00:04:58.66\00:05:05.67
>> AND -- AND THEY WERE SAYING
STRANGE THINGS HAPPENING EVER
00:05:05.67\00:05:14.11
DAY. AND HER MOM
WAS NAME'S MOTHER
00:05:14.11\00:05:18.45
KATIE BELL, SHE WAS
SAYING 99.5 WON'T DO.
00:05:18.45\00:05:23.35
[ LAUGHTER ] >> AND
ALL OF THESE SONGS AND
00:05:23.35\00:05:26.45
YOU KNOW -- YOU
JUST -- YOU ARE POOR.
00:05:26.45\00:05:29.09
YOU AIN'T GOT NOTHNG. YOU
CAN'T STOP IN A WHITE DRESS
00:05:29.09\00:05:34.36
SHOP TO EAT, BECAUSE YOU
WEREN'T ALLOWED IN THERE.
00:05:34.36\00:05:37.67
YOU COULD WASH DISHES IN THERE,
BUT YOU WASN'T ALLOWED TO EAT IN
00:05:37.67\00:05:45.77
THERE. YOU COULD
COOK THE MEAT THAT
00:05:45.77\00:05:48.61
THEY WERE EATING, BUT YOU
WEREN'T ALLOWED TO EAT IN THERE.
00:05:48.61\00:05:52.91
>> WAS YOUR MOM A CHRISTIAN?
>> I WOULDN'T SAY SHE WAS A
00:05:52.91\00:05:57.05
CHRISTIAN. SHE WAS A GOOD WOMAN.
00:05:57.05\00:05:58.62
BUT WHAT HE CALL
CHRISTIANS TODAY.
00:05:58.62\00:06:00.72
SHE WASN'T THAT.
BUT SHE WAS A BAPTIST.
00:06:00.72\00:06:03.63
>> UH-HUH. >> WE
WAS A MEMBER OF NEW HOPE
00:06:03.63\00:06:08.23
BAPTIST CHURCH, AN MY
GRANDMOTHER WAS METHODIST, AND
00:06:08.23\00:06:12.07
YOU HAD TO GO TO THEIR CHURCH
AND MY MOTHER'S CHURCH, OR ELSE
00:06:12.07\00:06:18.84
YOU CAN'T GO TO
THE MOVIES ON SUNDAY.
00:06:18.84\00:06:21.74
AND IF USE WERE BLACK YOU GO
-UPSTAIRS, AND IF YOU WERE WHITE
YOU SIT DOWNSTAIRS.
00:06:21.74\00:06:26.72
>> UH-HUH. SO YOU
HAD A CHANCE TO SEE LIFE
00:06:26.72\00:06:31.19
PRECIVIL RIGHTS AND POST-CIVIL
RIGHTS WITH SEGREGATION AND
00:06:31.19\00:06:36.26
DESEGREGATION. >> THAT'S RIGHT.
00:06:36.26\00:06:37.39
>> WHAT ROLE DID YOUR MUSIC
PLAY IN THE DESEGREGATION PART?
00:06:37.39\00:06:41.23
>> WELL, MY MUSIC GOT SO
POPULAR, WHEN I FIRST STARTED,
00:06:41.23\00:06:51.51
BLACK PEOPLE
WEREN'T SCREAMING OVER ME.
00:06:51.51\00:06:57.61
WHITE PEOPLE WERE. >> HUM.
00:06:57.61\00:06:58.78
>> AND THEY WERE SCREAMING
OVER CHUCK BERRY, AND THE
00:06:58.78\00:07:04.35
MIDNIGHTERS, AND A
MAN CALLED LEWIS JORAN.
00:07:04.35\00:07:09.12
>> YEAH. >> THEY
WERE SCREAMING OVER HIM.
00:07:09.12\00:07:12.69
YOU KNOW? BUT -- BUT THE BLACK
00:07:12.69\00:07:14.40
PEOPLE -- IN ORDER TO -- TO MOVE
BLACK PEOPLE YOU HAVE GOT TO BE
00:07:14.40\00:07:19.37
IN WHAT THEY CALL
THE GROOVE. >> OKAY.
00:07:19.37\00:07:22.04
>> YOU HAVE GOT TO
REALLY FEEL THE RHYTHM.
00:07:22.04\00:07:25.47
THAT'S WHY JESSE --
JESSE IS THE RHYTHM MASTER.
00:07:25.47\00:07:29.18
HE HAS SO MANY TEMPOS IN MUSIC.
AND SEE EVERYBODY DON'T HAVE
00:07:29.18\00:07:33.98
THAT GIFT. AND SEE
WITH BLACK PEOPLE YOU
00:07:33.98\00:07:37.22
HAVE GOT TO BE IN THAT.
IF YOU AIN'T GOT THAT, THEY
00:07:37.22\00:07:41.62
DON'T CARE FOR IT. BUT
WHITE PEOPLE A LOT OF TIMES
00:07:41.62\00:07:44.83
THEY ARE OFF-BEAT
ANYWAYS. [ LAUGHTER ]
00:07:44.83\00:07:51.07
>> THEY ARE PATTING AT
THE BOOM OVER HERE, YOU KNOW.
00:07:51.07\00:07:54.50
[ LAUGHTER ] >>
BUT NOT ALL OF THEM.
00:07:54.50\00:07:55.87
SOME OF THEM HAD
THE BEAT. [ LAUGHTER ]
00:07:55.87\00:07:58.01
>> BUT THE ONES I
KNOW DIDN'T HAVE THE BEAT.
00:07:58.01\00:08:00.14
[ LAUGHTER ] >>
SO WHAT THEY DID WAS,
00:08:00.14\00:08:06.48
THEY -- THEY KEPT ON IT, AND
WHEN I STARTED GETTING MORE AND
00:08:06.48\00:08:10.52
MORE POPULAR, THEY
STARTED REALLY SUPPORTING ME.
00:08:10.52\00:08:13.46
AND SOME OF THE SUNG
BLACK PEOPLE DIDN'T CARE FOR.
00:08:13.46\00:08:16.06
>> REALLY? >> UH-HUH.
00:08:16.06\00:08:21.66
>> TUTI FRUITY, AND A LOT OF
THE THINGS THEY DIDN'T CARE FOR.
00:08:21.66\00:08:33.14
>> WHEN YOU WERE YOUNG, YOU GOT
ASKED TO LEAVE TOWN, DIDN'T YOU?
00:08:33.14\00:08:37.08
>> OH, YES. THE
POLICE CAME TO ME AND I -- I

WOMAN IN YOUR CAR.
I SAID NO, I DON'T.
00:08:51.59\00:08:54.93
THEY SAID WE HEARD
THAT YOU DO. >> UH-HUH.
00:08:54.93\00:08:58.57
>> SO THEY WENT DOWNTOWN -- AND
WHEN THEY LOCKED YOU UP, THEY
00:08:58.57\00:09:03.34
PUT YOU UP ON THE CLOCK OF THE
JAIL, AND EVERY TIME IT RANG,
00:09:03.34\00:09:09.78
YOU WOULD HEAR BAM! BAM!

NIGGER HERE IS GOING TO LEAVE
TOWN AND HE AIN'T NEVER GOING TO

TO CLEVELAND, MY OTHER AUNTY,
00:09:36.17\00:09:43.11

JAMES BROWN, HE GOT FAMOUS.
HE WOULD COME, BUT I WOULDN'T
00:09:48.05\00:09:52.99
GO, BECAUSE THEY
TOLD ME TO GET OUT.
00:09:52.99\00:09:55.26
>> THAT'S RIGHT. >> I
DIDN'T GO BACK UNTIL IT
00:09:55.26\00:09:59.83
DIED DOWN. AND NOW
THEY NAMED STREETS AFTER
00:09:59.83\00:10:03.10

HE SAID MAN,
LEAVE THAT MAN ALONE.
00:14:02.87\00:14:05.01
HE IS A HOMELESS MAN. I
SAID -- I SAID YOU KNOW WHAT?
00:14:05.01\00:14:10.68
THAT MAY BE JESUS

THAT THE WORLD IS GETTING READY
TO END, AND JESUS WANTS ME TO
00:14:27.56\00:14:32.00
PASS OUT THESE BOOKS TO LET
PEOPLE KNOW THEY HAVE TIME NOW
00:14:32.00\00:14:35.30

>> KNOCK! >> AMEN.
00:24:35.90\00:24:37.97
>> ABOUT IT NOTHING. I
WOULD RATHER HAVE JESUS THAN
00:24:37.97\00:24:41.61
SILVER OR GOLD. >> YES, COME ON.
00:24:41.61\00:24:45.65
>> I WOULD RATHER THAT
JESUS THAN HOUSES OR LAND.
00:24:45.65\00:24:50.95
I WOULD RATHER BE
TRUE TO HIS HOLY NAME.
00:24:50.95\00:24:55.16
HE IS A MIGHTY GOD.
HE IS A WONDERFUL SAVIOR.
00:24:55.16\00:25:00.70
>> YOU BROUGHT THIS UP ABOUT
CHURCHES THAT TEACH THINGS THAT
00:25:00.70\00:25:04.40
AREN'T TRUE. >> YES.
00:25:04.40\00:25:05.67
>> IT'S VERY POPULAR TODAY THAT
PEOPLE SAY, WELL, YOU HAVE DON'T
00:25:05.67\00:25:09.37
HAVE TO KEEP THE
COMMANDMENTS OF GOD.
00:25:09.37\00:25:11.84
THEY WERE NAILED TO THE
CROSS. >> NAILED TO THE CROSS.
00:25:11.84\00:25:14.98
>> BUT YOU JUST SAID YOU NEED
TO KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD.
00:25:14.98\00:25:25.72
>> WHEN JESUS DIED, THE ONLY
THING THAT WAS NAILED TO THE
00:25:25.72\00:25:31.16
CROSS WAS JESUS. >> ALL RIGHT.
00:25:31.16\00:25:33.60
OKAY. >> THAT'S
THE ONLY THING THAT
00:25:33.60\00:25:35.06
WAS NAILED TO
THE CROSS. >> OKAY.
00:25:35.06\00:25:36.83
>> THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD.
HE DIED BECAUSE WE BROKE THE
00:25:36.83\00:25:43.17
COMMANDMENTS. WE DIED
BECAUSE YOU ARE SUPPOSED
00:25:43.17\00:25:45.11
TO KEEP THE
COMMANDMENTS. >> THAT'S RIGHT.
00:25:45.11\00:25:47.91
OKAY. >> THE
COMMANDMENTS IS GOD'S
00:25:47.91\00:25:50.35
RULE OF LIFE. IT'S HIS
WAY OF SHOWING YOU WHAT
00:25:50.35\00:25:53.62
IS RIGHT AND WHAT
IS WRONG. >> UH-HUH.
00:25:53.62\00:25:55.85
>> THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD, THE
BIBLE SAYS THEY ARE HOLY, JUST,
00:25:55.85\00:26:00.09
AND GOOD, AND
THEY ARE RIGHTEOUS.
00:26:00.09\00:26:02.32
>> UH-HUH. >> UH-HUH.
00:26:02.32\00:26:03.83
>> AND IF YOU LOVE GOD,
YOU DON'T MIND KEEPING THEM.
00:26:03.83\00:26:06.90
>> ALL OF THEM?
>> ALL TEN OF THEM.
00:26:06.90\00:26:09.13
>> ALL TEN OF THEM. >>
IF YOU KEEP ONE AND DON'T
00:26:09.13\00:26:13.87
ANOTHER, YOU ARE
GUILTY OF ALL OF THEM.
00:26:13.87\00:26:15.87
AND YOU DON'T
HAVE TO LIVE LIKE THAT.
00:26:15.87\00:26:18.27
IT'S NOT HARD TO
LIVE BY THE COMMANDMENTS.
00:26:18.27\00:26:20.88
IT'S NOT HARD
TO KEEP GOD'S WORD.
00:26:20.88\00:26:22.98
HE IS ASKING YOU TO KEEP THEM
AND HE IS GOING TO HELP YOU KEEP
00:26:22.98\00:26:27.82
THEM. >> SO YOU
NORFOURTH ONE SAYS
00:26:27.82\00:26:32.82
REMEMBER THE SABBATH DAY.
DO YOU WORSHIP THE LORD ON THE
00:26:32.82\00:26:37.06
SEVENTH DAY. >> I
WORSHIP GOD ON SATURDAY
00:26:37.06\00:26:42.13
THAT MOST PEOPLE
USED TO GET DRUNK ON.
00:26:42.13\00:26:47.07
>> OKAY. >> MOST
PEOPLE USE THAT DAY TO
00:26:47.07\00:26:49.50
GET DRUNK AND DO THEIR DIRT.
AND THAT DAY IS VERY IMPORTANT.
00:26:49.50\00:26:54.61
JESUS WANTS YOU
TO KEEP THE SABBATH.
00:26:54.61\00:26:57.41
REMEMBER THE
SABBATH, TO KEEP IT HOLY.
00:26:57.41\00:27:02.02
SIX DAYS. THE
SEVENTH DAY IS THE SABBATH
00:27:02.02\00:27:05.79
OF THE LORD BY GOD. IN
IT THOUSAND SHALL NOT DO ANY
00:27:05.79\00:27:20.07
WORK. WHY?
00:27:20.07\00:27:21.54
BECAUSE THERE'S
SIX DAYS. >> COME ON.
00:27:21.54\00:27:23.81
COME ON. >> THE
LORD MADE HEAVEN AND
00:27:23.81\00:27:28.24
EARTH. >> WOW.
00:27:28.24\00:27:29.11
>> AND REST ON THE SEVENTH DAY.
WHERE FOR THE LORD BLESSED THE
00:27:29.11\00:27:36.32
SEVENTH DAY TO KEEP IT
HOLY. SANCTIFY THAT DAY.
00:27:36.32\00:27:40.29
AND THAT DAY IS
MEANT FOR ALL OF US.
00:27:40.29\00:27:42.62
IT'S THE SEVENTH DAY,
IT'S THE SABBATH OF GOD.
00:27:42.62\00:27:46.09
AND WE KEEP THE DAY
THAT GOD TELL US TO KEEP.
00:27:46.09\00:27:48.96
>> WOW. >> A GROUP OF PEOPLE GOT
00:27:48.96\00:27:50.87
TOGETHER AND CHANGED --
AND IT'S -- THEY SAID THAT THIS
00:27:50.87\00:27:55.07
SHOWS THAT WE HAVE POWER.
SO WE CHANGED THAT DAY AROUND.
00:27:55.07\00:27:58.84
>> UH-HUH. UH-HUH.
00:27:58.84\00:28:02.94
THAT'S RIGHT. THAT'S RIGHT.
00:28:02.94\00:28:04.05
THIS GROUP ACTUALLY CHANGED
OR ATTEMPTED TO CHANGE -- THAT'S
00:28:04.05\00:28:07.98
THE GOOD PART.
NOBODY CAN CHANGE --
00:28:07.98\00:28:11.19
>> BUT THEY CAN TRY. >>
SO TODAY THERE ARE MANY, MANY
00:28:11.19\00:28:14.86
GROUPS WHO FOLLOW WHAT
THIS PARTICULAR GROUP --
00:28:14.86\00:28:17.43
>> THAT'S RIGHT. >>
AND THEY SAY THAT, WELL,
00:28:17.43\00:28:20.66
SUNDAY IS THE DAY OF WORSHIP,
BUT THAT'S NOT THE DAY THAT GOD
00:28:20.66\00:28:24.43
SET UP. >> IT'S NOT
THE DAY THAT GOD SET
00:28:24.43\00:28:26.84
UP. IT'S
POPULAR, AND EVERYBODY IS
00:28:26.84\00:28:29.07
DOING IT. BUT THE
SABBATH IS THE SEVENTH -DAY.
00:28:29.07\00:28:32.87
>> YEAH. AND GOD
SAID REMEMBER THAT.
00:28:32.87\00:28:35.48
AND WHEN HE SAID, REMEMBER IT,
BECAUSE HE SAID YOU ARE GOING TO
00:28:35.48\00:28:39.48
FORGET IT. HE WANTS
YOU TO REMEMBER, AND DO
00:28:39.48\00:28:42.98
IT, AND KEEP IT A PART
OF YOU. >> THAT'S RIGHT.
00:28:42.98\00:28:49.16
>> OKAY. >> THERE'S
SPIRITUAL VIGILANTES,
00:28:49.16\00:28:54.46
PEOPLE WHO TRY TO TAKE GOD'S LAW
INTO THEIR OWN HANDS AND CHANGE
00:28:54.46\00:28:58.10
IT. AND GOD'S LAW
CANNOT BE CHANGED.
00:28:58.10\00:29:00.90
>> IT CAN'T BE CHANGED.
THE REASON IT CAN'T BE CHANGED,
00:29:00.90\00:29:05.81
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, IS
THE TRANSCRIPT OF HIS CHARACTER.
00:29:05.81\00:29:08.21
>> THAT'S RIGHT. >> WOW.
00:29:08.21\00:29:10.31
>> THAT'S THE
REASON YOU CAN'T CHANGE IT.
00:29:10.31\00:29:12.15
>> THAT'S RIGHT. >>
IT'S HOLY, JUST, AND IT'S
00:29:12.15\00:29:15.98
GOOD. >> UH-HUH.
00:29:15.98\00:29:16.82
>> ISN'T THAT
WONDERFUL? >> UH-HUH.
00:29:16.82\00:29:18.52
>> YEAH. >> A
TRANSCRIPT OF HIS -- THANK
00:29:18.52\00:29:21.46
YOU FOR BRINGING
THAT TO ME, JESUS.
00:29:21.46\00:29:23.86
>> YES. >> YES.
00:29:23.86\00:29:24.66
>> ISN'T THAT WONDERFUL. >> YES.
00:29:24.66\00:29:29.56
SO AGAIN, BROTHER RICHARD, HOW
DID YOU COME TO KNOW JESUS FOR
00:29:29.56\00:29:34.57
YOURSELF? WHO KIND
OF LEAD YOU INTO THIS
00:29:34.57\00:29:36.81
WHOLE SPIRITUAL PATH? >>
DID YOU JUST READ ABOUT IT
00:29:36.81\00:29:40.44
YOURSELF? SOMEBODY TEACH YOU?
00:29:40.44\00:29:42.04
>> NO, WHEN I WAS A BOY
MY MOMMA HAD A STACK OF BOOKS
00:29:42.04\00:29:49.22
LAYING DOWN "THE
GREAT CONTROVERSY" --
00:29:49.22\00:29:53.99
>> OKAY. >> AND SHE
HAD GOT SOME BOOKS ON
00:29:53.99\00:29:56.69
CREDIT WHERE YOU
PAY SO MUCH A MONTH.
00:29:56.69\00:29:58.76
>> YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT.
>> AND I LIKED THE BOOK WITH
00:29:58.76\00:30:01.93
PICTURES OF ANGELS.
THAT'S WHY I LIKED IT.
00:30:01.93\00:30:05.30
AND MY BROTHER'S -- MOTHER'S
BROTHER WAS A SEVENTH-DAY
00:30:05.30\00:30:10.37
ADVENTIST MINISTER. AND
HE MET A GIRL IN THE ARMY,
00:30:10.37\00:30:14.11
AND SHE BROUGHT HIM IN.
AND THEN BY DOING THAT, AND BY
00:30:14.11\00:30:20.08
READING AND STUDYING AND ALL YOU
WANTED TO BE THAT -- YOU WANTED
00:30:20.08\00:30:23.95
TO BE LIKE THAT, BECAUSE
YOU SAW HOW -- YOU KNOW, WHEN
00:30:23.95\00:30:27.66
YOU -- WHEN YOU READ ABOUT WHAT
JESUS GAVE UP FOR US, AND WHAT
00:30:27.66\00:30:31.73
HE IS GOING TO GIVE US, ETERNAL
LIFE, THAT'S SOMETHING TO THINK
00:30:31.73\00:30:39.93
ABOUT. NO MORE
DYING, NO MORE SICKNESS,
00:30:39.93\00:30:44.01
NO MORE POOR PEOPE.
YOU HAVE GOT TREES WITH
00:30:44.01\00:30:46.94
EVERYTHING THAT YOU WANT ON IT.
YOU LIVING IN A MANSION LIKE YOU
00:30:46.94\00:30:52.11
HAVE NEVER SEEN IN
THE WORLD. >> UH-HUH.
00:30:52.11\00:30:54.58
>> AND YOU ARE ABLE TO GO
TO OTHER PLANETS AND SEE YOUR
00:30:54.58\00:30:58.49
BROTHERS AND
YOUR SISTERS. >> YEAH.
00:30:58.49\00:31:00.52
>> OH, GOD, I REALLY WANT THAT.
>> SO WHAT YOU ARE SAYING IS,
00:31:00.52\00:31:06.09
WITH ALL OF THE WEALTH THAT YOU
HAVE HAD, WITH ALL OF THE HOMES
00:31:06.09\00:31:09.83
AND THE FAME, AND THE MONEY, AND
THE PRESTIGE, ALL OF THAT, NONE
00:31:09.83\00:31:15.87
OF THAT COMPARES TO
WHAT GOD HAS FOR YOU.
00:31:15.87\00:31:19.74
>> WHEN I READ ABOUT
PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT WINNING THE
00:31:19.74\00:31:23.71
LOTTERY -- I SAY FORGET ABOUT
THE LOTTERY, JESUS IS GOING TO
00:31:23.71\00:31:27.48
GIVE YOU ETERNAL LIFE. THE
LOTTERY AIN'T EVEN GOING TO
00:31:27.48\00:31:31.79
BE HERE. >> THAT'S RIGHT.
00:31:31.79\00:31:33.59
>> NO MORE DEATH, NO
MORE DYING, NO MORE SICKNESS.
00:31:33.59\00:31:37.09
>> YEAH. >> WHAT
MORE DO YOU WANT?
00:31:37.09\00:31:39.03
>> YEAH. >> OH,
THANK YOU, JESUS.
00:31:39.03\00:31:41.06
THANK YOU, LORD. >> YES.
00:31:41.06\00:31:42.86
>> WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT?
>> IF YOU HAD IT ALL TO DO OVER
00:31:42.86\00:31:46.94
AGAIN, YOUR LIFE, IS THERE
ANYTHING IN PARTICULAR THAT YOU
00:31:46.94\00:31:50.57
WOULD CHANGE? >> IF
I HAD IT ALL TO DO OVER
00:31:50.57\00:31:57.95
AGAIN, I WOULD BE
LITTLE RICHARD THE PREACHER.
00:31:57.95\00:32:00.72
>> WOW. >> IT IT
THE MESSENGER FROM
00:32:00.72\00:32:05.99
JESUS. I WOULD
TEACH PEOPLE -- I WOULD
00:32:05.99\00:32:09.96
WANT TO PREACH ON
STREET CORNERS DOWNTOWN.
00:32:09.96\00:32:12.23
I WOULD WANT TO
STAND ON THE CORNERS.
00:32:12.23\00:32:15.16
THIS IS WHAT IS GOING
TO HAPPEN WHEN JESUS COMES.
00:32:15.16\00:32:19.97
AND THAT'S WHAT I
WANT TO DO. I LOVE THAT.
00:32:19.97\00:32:22.34
>> YEAH, WELL, WE FOUND OUT
TODAY, YOU ARE LITTLE RICHARD
00:32:22.34\00:32:26.24
THE PREACHER. >> THAT'S RIGHT.
00:32:26.24\00:32:28.01
>> YOU ARE
ALREADY. >> THAT'S RIGHT.
00:32:28.01\00:32:30.21
>> BUT I LOVE JESUS. >> YES.
00:32:30.21\00:32:31.85
>> AND I'M SURE THERE IS A LOT
OF STUFF THAT I HAVEN'T THOUGHT
00:32:31.85\00:32:38.15
OF, THAT I HAVEN'T THOUGHT ABOUT
YET, BECAUSE I MUST TELL IT,
00:32:38.15\00:32:41.62
AND -- AND WE'LL BE
RIGHT BACK. [ LAUGHTER ]
00:32:41.62\00:32:45.43
>> I SURE HOPE THEY ARE
HAVING AS MUCH FUN AS WE ARE.
00:32:45.43\00:32:49.60
I KNOW IT. I'M LOVING THIS.
00:32:49.60\00:32:52.17
>> I'M LEARNING SO MUCH. >>
IT'S INTERESTING THAT HE CAME
00:32:52.17\00:32:56.00
FROM SUCH A LARGE
FAMILY -- >> ABSOLUTELY.
00:32:56.00\00:33:00.84
>> AND POVERTY STRICKEN.
IT'S AMAZING HOW HE WAS ABLE TO
00:33:00.84\00:33:06.28
NAVIGATE THROUGH THAT
WHOLE -- THROUGH ALL OF THAT
00:33:06.28\00:33:08.88
DIS -- DISADVANTAGE,
AND BECOME LITTLE RICHARD.
00:33:08.88\00:33:12.59
>> BUT YOU KNOW, HE SAID
SOMETHING VERY IMPORTANT.
00:33:12.59\00:33:16.69
THE BIBLE TALKS ABOUT, IT SAYS
WHERE THERE IS NO VISION, THE
00:33:16.69\00:33:20.96
PEOPLE PARISH. BUT HE
HAD A VISION EVEN AS A
00:33:20.96\00:33:24.37
LITTLE BOY. HE SAID I
WAS A BUSY LITTLE GUY,
00:33:24.37\00:33:27.54
AND I WAS IN
EVERYBODY ELSE'S BUSINESS.
00:33:27.54\00:33:33.91
[ LAUGHTER ] >> AND
THEN WHEN ENTERTAINERS
00:33:33.91\00:33:36.54
CAME TO TOWN, HE
FOLLOWED THE BUS.
00:33:36.54\00:33:40.72
HE HAD A VISION THAT
HE WANTED TO GO SOMEWHERE.
00:33:40.72\00:33:43.89
THE CHILDREN OF
ISRAEL WENT 40 YEARS, JOHN.
00:33:43.89\00:33:46.62
>> THAT'S RIGHT. >>
THEY DIDN'T MAKE IT, MANY OF
00:33:46.62\00:33:49.22
THOSE TO THE PROMISE LAND.
RICHARD IS MAKING IT THROUGH
00:33:49.22\00:33:53.36
WITH GOD'S
HELP. >> THAT'S RIGHT.
00:33:53.36\00:33:55.80
AND HOW THE JOURNEY ENDS IS MORE
PERMANENT THAN HOW THE JOURNEY
00:33:55.80\00:34:00.77
BEGINS. YOU FIND
IN THE BIBLE, WE DON'T
00:34:00.77\00:34:03.37
KNOW WHO THE
THIEF ON THE CROSS WAS.
00:34:03.37\00:34:07.14
WE JUST KNOW WHO
HE IS GOING TO BE.
00:34:07.14\00:34:09.58
WHO HE BECAME AT
THAT PIVOTAL HOME.
00:34:09.58\00:34:14.22
AND EVERYONE HAS A
PIVOTAL MOMENT IN THEIR LIES.
00:34:14.22\00:34:17.25
AND THAT'S WHAT I
LIKE ABOUT BROTHER RICHARD.
00:34:17.25\00:34:20.86
I LIKE TO CALL
HIM BROTHER RICHARD.
00:34:20.86\00:34:23.49
HE RESPONDED AND WHAT HE SAID
WHEN HE FINALLY ACQUIESCED TO
00:34:23.49\00:34:29.73
THE INTERVIEW,
ANYTHING FOR THE LORD.
00:34:29.73\00:34:31.87
I LOVE THE LORD. I LOVE
JESUS, AND HE SAID I JUST
00:34:31.87\00:34:35.24
WANT TO BE READY WHEN HE COMES,
AND I WANT EVERYBODY ELSE TO BE
00:34:35.24\00:34:39.57
READY. SO PRAISE THE LORD.
00:34:39.57\00:34:41.21
>> LET'S TALK FOR JUST A
MOMENT ABOUT BROTHER PAYTON.
00:34:41.21\00:34:44.58
>> YES. >> WHAT A WONDERFUL MAN.
00:34:44.58\00:34:48.05
YOU FIRST MET HIM AND THEN
WE WERE ABLE TO TALK TO HIM.
00:34:48.05\00:34:51.75
TELL US MORE ABOUT PAYTON.
>> PAYTON IS A CARING MAN, HIS
00:34:51.75\00:34:56.19
BROTHER, RICHARD, RAISED
HIM. THEY TRAVELED TOGETHER.
00:34:56.19\00:34:59.13
HE WAS A PART OF
THE INNER ENTOURAGE.
00:34:59.13\00:35:04.00
HE WOULD CARE FOR HIS BROTHER,
MAKE SURE HE HAD EVERYTHING THAT
00:35:04.00\00:35:06.74
HE NEEDED. BUT HE IS
VERY COMFORTABLE BEING
00:35:06.74\00:35:09.77
IN THE BACKGROUND. HE
DOES NOT WANT TO BE IN FRONT
00:35:09.77\00:35:12.54
OF THE CAMERA. A
VERY HUMBLE INDIVIDUAL
00:35:12.54\00:35:15.31
HIMSELF. AND A LOT
OF WHO HE IS TODAY WAS
00:35:15.31\00:35:18.11
SHAPED BY THE LIFE THAT LITTLE
RICHARD AND THE PLACES THEY WENT
00:35:18.11\00:35:20.75
TOGETHER AND THE
PEOPLE THEY MET TOGETHER.
00:35:20.75\00:35:22.68
AND SO -- BUT A VERY PRIVATE
MAN, BUT WHAT I LIKE ABOUT HIM,
00:35:22.68\00:35:26.96
HE IS A VERY
CHRISTIAN INDIVIDUAL.
00:35:26.96\00:35:30.19
VERY CONNECTED TO THE LORD.
WE PRAYED A NUMBER OF TIMES
00:35:30.19\00:35:33.53
TOGETHER. AND --
AND THE STRENGTH OF
00:35:33.53\00:35:36.33
THEIR -- BOTH RELATIONSHIPS
WHERE THEY ARE WHERE THEY ARE
00:35:36.33\00:35:41.37
NOW IS THEY HAVE
SEEN THE OTHER SIDE.
00:35:41.37\00:35:43.74
THEY HAVE BEEN IN THE WEALTHIEST
OF HOTELS, THEY HAVE BEEN IN THE
00:35:43.74\00:35:49.21
PRESENCE OF DIGNITARIES AND
PRESIDENTS, AND THEY HAVE BEEN
00:35:49.21\00:35:51.68
ON THE STAGE, BUT ALL OF THOSE
PLACES THEY HAVE BEEN, THERE ARE
00:35:51.68\00:35:55.65
SEEDS, EVEN DURING THE
CONCERTS -- I THINK -- THE
00:35:55.65\00:35:59.92
CONCERTS I THINK WAS A PART
OF HIS AGREEMENT, I'M DOING THIS
00:35:59.92\00:36:03.36
CONCERT, BUT I'M GOING
TO PASS OUT STUFF TO CHRIST.
00:36:03.36\00:36:06.49
AND EVEN THOUGH HE WAS PLAYING
BOTH SIDES OF THE COIN, YOU
00:36:06.49\00:36:10.97
CANNOT TAKE AWAY THE
POWER O THE GREAT CONTROVERSY.
00:36:10.97\00:36:14.24
THOSE ARE SEEDS
THAT ARE PLANTED.
00:36:14.24\00:36:17.91
IF THE LORD COULD TALK TO [
INAUDIBLE ] WITH A DONKEY, HE
-CAN USE A TREE OR ROCK.
00:36:17.91\00:36:25.15
SO BUT NOW HE'S STRONG IN THE
LORD AND THE POER OF HIS MIGHT.
00:36:25.15\00:36:28.92
AND PAYTON IS THAT KIND OF MAN.
DOESN'T WANT THE SPOTLIGHT, HE
00:36:28.92\00:36:35.79
JUST WANTS TO BE THERE FOR
HIS BROTHER AND BE THERE FOR THE
00:36:35.79\00:36:39.83
LORD, AND IT
SHOWS ALL THE THE TIME.
00:36:39.83\00:36:42.16
>> ABSOLUTELY. WITH
THAT, I THINK WE HAVE ONE
00:36:42.16\00:36:44.60
MORE SECTION OF THIS. AND
I THINK WE ARE ENDING THIS
00:36:44.60\00:36:47.90
TIME. WE HAD OUR
COUPLE OF BREAKS.
00:36:47.90\00:36:51.94
HE BROUGHT US TO
BREAK. >> HE DID.
00:36:51.94\00:36:55.24
>> LET'S FINISH THIS INTERVIEW.
>> YOU -- YOU ARE SYNONYMOUS
00:36:55.24\00:36:59.05
WITH DRESS AND WITH CLOTHING.
I MEAN WHEN PEOPLE WATCH LITTLE
00:36:59.05\00:37:03.82
RICHARD THEY LOVE NOT ONLY WHAT
LITTLE RICHARD IS SAYING, HOW HE
00:37:03.82\00:37:07.19
IS SINGING, HOW HE PLAYED,
GETTING ON TOP OF THE PIANO, YOU
00:37:07.19\00:37:11.49
MAY DO -- NO MATTER WHAT, BUT
THEY LOVED TO SEE WHAT YOU WERE
00:37:11.49\00:37:16.56
WEARING. BECAUSE YOU KEPT PEOPLE
00:37:16.56\00:37:18.30
GUESSING. COULD I
FLIP YOU A COIN FOR
00:37:18.30\00:37:20.87
THOSE SHOES? >> WHAT?
00:37:20.87\00:37:22.64
>> COULD I FLIP YOU A COIN
FOR THOSE SHOES TO SEE WHO GETS
00:37:22.64\00:37:26.84
THOSE SHOES. [ LAUGHTER ]
00:37:26.84\00:37:28.01
>> IF YOU PUT ON THESE SHOES --
>> I WONDER, WOULD THAT MAKE ME
00:37:28.01\00:37:32.45
KEEP TIME AND DANCE
BETTER? >> IF YOU PUT ON THESE
00:37:32.45\00:37:35.35
SHOES -- I WOULD SEE A LOT OF
MEN BEATING YOU DOWN THE STREET.
00:37:35.35\00:37:39.65
[ LAUGHTER ] >> BUT
I GOT THE COWBOY BOOTS
00:37:39.65\00:37:42.52
ON. >> YOU GOT
ON WHAT YOU REALLY
00:37:42.52\00:37:45.09
NEED. YOU GOT
THE REAL THING, KEEP
00:37:45.09\00:37:48.40
THEM. >> ALL RIGHT.
00:37:48.40\00:37:49.43
I'LL KEEP THEM ON. >>
THESE THINGS WON'T LOOK RIGHT
00:37:49.43\00:37:53.44
ON NOW. >> WAS THAT PART --
00:37:53.44\00:37:55.97
>> I HAD TWO TAYLORS
THAT TRAVELED WITH ME.
00:37:55.97\00:38:01.08
>> WAS THAT
PART OF YOUR PERSONA.
00:38:01.08\00:38:04.35
>> IT WAS PART OF ME.
JOSEPHINE BAKER OUT OF ST.
00:38:04.35\00:38:07.42
LOUIS, MISSOURI. >> OH, YEAH.
00:38:07.42\00:38:09.15
>> YEAH. >> AND
I JUST WANTED TO BE
00:38:09.15\00:38:12.25
FLASHY AND FANCY -- >> YEAH.
00:38:12.25\00:38:14.06
>> -- AND -- AND --
>> BECAUSE YOU COULD.
00:38:14.06\00:38:16.96
>> -- AND DRESS IN
PRETTY STUFF. >> YEAH.
00:38:16.96\00:38:20.36
TELL US BOUT SOME OF
THE FOLK THAT YOU KNEW.
00:38:20.36\00:38:23.06
YOU SAID YOU
LIKED COUNTRY MUSIC.
00:38:23.06\00:38:25.30
>> YEAH >>
BECAUSE FOR SOME OF US, WE
00:38:25.30\00:38:28.14
THINK OF, MAN, IT LITTLE
RICHARD -- WE DON'T THIN ABOUT
00:38:28.14\00:38:32.91
HIM AND COUNTRY MUSIC, BUT A
LOT OF THE OLDER BLACK FOLK DID
00:38:32.91\00:38:37.25
COUNTRY MUSIC. >>
THAT'S ALL I HEAR, BLACK
00:38:37.25\00:38:41.02
PEOPLE WALKING DOWN THE MIDDLE
OF THE STREETS, PLAYING GUITAR,
00:38:41.02\00:38:44.69
AND THE GUITAR WOULD BE
TALKING, DO, DO, DO, DO, DO.
00:38:44.69\00:38:50.16
>> OKAY. TODAY,
THOUGH, YOU HAVE A NUMBER
00:38:50.16\00:38:53.09
OF FRIENDS IN THE
COUNTRY MUSIC LIKE DOLLY PARTON.
00:38:53.09\00:38:59.87
>> DOLLY IS A
GOOD FRIENDS OF MINE.
00:38:59.87\00:39:03.97
LORETTA LYNN. >> TOM JONES?
00:39:03.97\00:39:06.17
>> TOM JONES -- HE JUST CALLED
ME -- I JUST TALKED TO HIM ABOUT
00:39:06.17\00:39:09.91
THREE WEEKS AGO. HE IS
-- HE WANTS ME TO RECORD
00:39:09.91\00:39:16.02
"FOOT PRINTS OF JESUS"
WITH HIM. >> THAT'S WONDERFUL.
00:39:16.02\00:39:19.22
ARE YOU GOING TO DO IT? >> YES.
00:39:19.22\00:39:21.62
>> ALL RIGHT. WE'LL
HAVE TO GET HIM TO 3ABN TO
00:39:21.62\00:39:26.59
DO THAT. >> I HAVE
TO CHEW SOME GINGER TO
00:39:26.59\00:39:29.60
CLEAR MY VOICE.
>> CLEAR YOUR VOICE.
00:39:29.60\00:39:32.70
LET'S GET THAT ON 3ABN.
WE'LL GET PEOPLE AROUND THE
00:39:32.70\00:39:35.64
WORLD WATCHING THAT. >> YES.
00:39:35.64\00:39:38.41
>> THAT WOULD BE GREAT. >>
WHEN YOU FIRST CAME INTO THE
00:39:38.41\00:39:41.84
CHURCH, WHAT KIND OF ADJUSTMENTS
DID YOU HAVE TO MAKE COMING INTO
00:39:41.84\00:39:45.75
THE CHURCH? WHEN
YOU KIND OF STILL STAYED
00:39:45.75\00:39:47.82
OUT THERE, SINGING,
BUT YOU WERE IN THE CHURCH.
00:39:47.82\00:39:50.39
HOW DID YOU -- HOW DID
YOU ADJUST TO COMING INTO THE
00:39:50.39\00:39:53.79
CHURCH? >> IT WAS HARD.
00:39:53.79\00:39:54.79
FIRST OF ALL, I WASN'T
USED TO DRESSING A CERTAIN WAY.
00:39:54.79\00:39:59.79
I WASN'T USED TO
WEARING PLAIN CLOTHES.
00:39:59.79\00:40:06.30
EVERYTHING WAS FLASHY. >> YES.
00:40:06.30\00:40:10.24
>> IT WAS JUST
THE WAY I DRESSED.
00:40:10.24\00:40:12.54
AND I USED TO WEAR
MAKEUP ON THINK FACE EVERY DAY.
00:40:12.54\00:40:20.08
EVERY DAY. AND -- I
HAD TO STOP ALL OF THAT
00:40:20.08\00:40:23.55
IF I WANTED TO
BE SAVED. >> YEAH.
00:40:23.55\00:40:25.72
>> AND I THINK MY LIFE
WAS WORTH MORE THAN POWDER.
00:40:25.72\00:40:29.09
[ LAUGHTER ] >> SO
-- AND I CAN'T SEE HOW
00:40:29.09\00:40:37.07
MEN -- PEOPLE ARE
SCREAMING -- HOW MEN -- THEY
00:40:37.07\00:40:40.57
SAY -- EVERYBODY WEARING
EARRINGS, AND NOBODY SAYING
00:40:40.57\00:40:45.07
NOTHING. >> HUH-UH.
00:40:45.07\00:40:47.38
>> EVERYBODY GOT AN
EARRING ON THEIR EAR.
00:40:47.38\00:40:50.25
>> HAVE MERCY. >> BACK
IN THE DAY IF I WORE AN
00:40:50.25\00:41:00.92
EARRING, IT WOULD BE
THE TALK OF THE WORLD.
00:41:00.92\00:41:04.26
>> YOU SEE MEN WEARING
MASCARA AND WOMEN'S CLOTHES.
00:41:04.26\00:41:08.73
WHAT DO YOU THINK WHEN YOU SEE
SOMEBODY IN A DRESS ABOUT 6'3",
00:41:08.73\00:41:14.24
IN A DRESS, AND A WIG, AND
WOMEN'S MAKEUP ON AND THEY HAVE
00:41:14.24\00:41:20.81
GOT A VOICE LORD
THAN WINLY PHIPPS?
00:41:20.81\00:41:26.45
HOW DO YOU ADJUST TO THAT?
BECAUSE IN YOUR ERA, NOBODY
00:41:26.45\00:41:29.68
COULD COME OUT AND SAY,
THIS IS ME AND I'M PROUD OF IT.
00:41:29.68\00:41:34.12
IS THAT SHOCKING TO YOU? >>
I NEVER SEEN NOBODY 6'4" AND
00:41:34.12\00:41:42.10
ALL OF THAT, WITH
NO WIGS AND NO DRESSES.
00:41:42.10\00:41:45.67
IT JUST -- IT'S A HARD THING
FOR A REAL MAN TO WANT TO WEAR.
00:41:45.67\00:41:50.37
A REAL MAN WON'T
WEAR NO DRESS. >> YEAH.
00:41:50.37\00:41:52.51
>> UH-HUH. >> HE
WON'T FEEL RIGHT WITH THAT
00:41:52.51\00:41:56.54
TYPE OF THING
ON. NOT A REAL MAN.
00:41:56.54\00:41:59.08
>> BUT TODAY THERE'S
PEOPLE ALL OVER THEM --
00:41:59.08\00:42:02.15
>> THEY ARE EVERYWHERE.
AND AIN'T NOTHING STRANGE ABOUT
00:42:02.15\00:42:07.06
THEM. IT'S JUST
A PART OF LIFE NOW.
00:42:07.06\00:42:09.09
IT'S ACCEPTABLE. >>
YOU THINK THAT'S ACCEPTABLE
00:42:09.09\00:42:13.36
TO GOD? >> NO, I
DON'T BELIEVE THAT'S
00:42:13.36\00:42:17.63
ACCEPTABLE TO GOD. THE
LORD TELLS US IN THE BIBLE
00:42:17.63\00:42:25.17
THAT -- A MAN SHOULDN'T WEAR
HERS, AND A WOMAN SHOULDN'T WEAR
00:42:25.17\00:42:30.61
HERS. IT'S IN THE BIBLE.
00:42:30.61\00:42:32.85
>> I HAD SOMEBODY THE
OTHER DAY, THEY CALL THEMSELVES
00:42:32.85\00:42:38.05
MILLENNIALS. HE SAID
THERE IS NOT JUST TWO
00:42:38.05\00:42:41.02
GENDERS. THEY HAVE
DISCOVERED THERE IS
00:42:41.02\00:42:46.19
109. YOU ARE NO
LONGER NECESSARILY A
00:42:46.19\00:42:48.36
MAN OR A WOMAN, YOU JUST DECIDE
WHAT YOU WANT TO BE TODAY AND
00:42:48.36\00:42:52.00
YOU CAN BE THAT. >> I
AIN'T NEVER HEARD THAT.
00:42:52.00\00:42:55.10
>> THAT SOUNDS LIKE A
LIE OF THE DEVIL, DOESN'T IT?
00:42:55.10\00:43:02.54
>> OH, MY GOD. >>
YEAH, THEY SAY NOBODY CAN
00:43:02.54\00:43:09.58
JUDGE ME -- >> I
DON'T THINK A WOMAN SHOULD
00:43:09.58\00:43:11.85
GO IN A MAN'S BATHROOM OR A MAN
SHOULD GO IN A WOMAN'S BATHROOM.
00:43:11.85\00:43:16.39
>> ABSOLUTELY. >>
IT'S JUST RIGHT TO DO IT.
00:43:16.39\00:43:19.06
>> UH-HUH. >> YEAH, ABSOLUTELY.
00:43:19.06\00:43:21.20
IT'S INTERESTING
TIMES IN WHICH WE'RE LIVING.
00:43:21.20\00:43:23.50
YOU ARE RIGHT WHEN YOU
SEE JESUS IS COMING SOON.
00:43:23.50\00:43:27.47
BECAUSE WE'RE SEEING THINGS D
I KNOW YOU ARE SEEING THINGS YOU
00:43:27.47\00:43:31.31
NEVER THOUGHT WAS
POSSIBLE. >> NEVER.
00:43:31.31\00:43:34.18
NEVER. >> AND THE
GOOD PART IS GOD IS
00:43:34.18\00:43:36.58
ALSO GIVING TECHNOLOGY TO PEOPLE
LIKE 3ABN THAT WE CAN SIT HERE
00:43:36.58\00:43:40.48
IN THIS CHURCH AND PEOPLE
ARRANGE THE WORLD CAN WATCH AND
00:43:40.48\00:43:44.49
HEAR YOUR TESTIMONY. >> YES.
00:43:44.49\00:43:46.72
>> THEY SEE LITTLE RICHARD AS
TOTALLY COMMITTED, SOLD OUT TO
00:43:46.72\00:43:51.16
GOD AND NOT
ASHAMED OF IT. >> YES.
00:43:51.16\00:43:53.60
>> DON'T CARE WHO YOU
TALK TO. YOU DON'T CARE
00:43:53.60\00:43:57.00
IF -- IT'S -- ANYBODY IN
THE WORLD, YOU CAN GOING TO TELL
00:43:57.00\00:44:00.57
THEM THERE IS ONE WAY TO HEAVEN,
AND THAT'S THROUGH JESUS CHRIST.
00:44:00.57\00:44:04.11
>> YES, AND I DON'T CALL NOBODY
NO NAE BECAUSE THEY GO IN A
00:44:04.11\00:44:09.51
WOMAN'S BATHROOM -- I
DON'T PUT A TITLE ON ANYBODY.
00:44:09.51\00:44:12.91
BUT WHEN I WAS A BOY, WE HAD
TO RESPECT NOT TO GO INTO THE
00:44:12.91\00:44:16.58
WOMAN'S RESTROOM. >> YEAH.
00:44:16.58\00:44:18.45
>> >> AND WE HAD
TO RESPECT NOT TO
00:44:18.45\00:44:20.86
GO INTO THE MEN'S
BATHROOM. THAT'S WHERE IT WAS.
00:44:20.86\00:44:25.03
THINGS NOW IS DIFFERENT.
PEOPLE HAVE THEIR OWN THING IN
00:44:25.03\00:44:28.36
MIND.-THEIR OWN SETUP. I
CAN'T TELL NOBODY WHAT TO DO.
00:44:28.36\00:44:32.93
AND I LOVE YOU ALL. I
DON'T CARE WHO YOU ARE, OR
00:44:32.93\00:44:36.87
WHERE YOU ARE FROM, OR WHAT
COLOR, I LOVE YOU, AND GOD LOVES
00:44:36.87\00:44:41.81
YOU TOO. AND
DON'T YOU FORGET THAT.
00:44:41.81\00:44:44.95
>> THAT IS TRUE.
AND THAT IS WONDERFUL.
00:44:44.95\00:44:47.35
AND THAT'S THE COMMISSION OF ALL
OF US, GO YE INTO THE WORLD --
00:44:47.35\00:44:53.02
>> AND TEACH THE GOSPEL. >> YES.
00:44:53.02\00:44:57.09
>> IT IS INTERESTING TO
ME, BROTHER RICHARD, THAT FOR A
00:44:57.09\00:45:00.93
WHILE, YOU HAD A
FOOT IN BOTH WORLDS --
00:45:00.93\00:45:03.50
>> THAT'S RIGHT. >> --
SO YOU HAD ONE FOOT IN THE
00:45:03.50\00:45:06.94
WORLD, STILL
SINGING THAT MUSIC --
00:45:06.94\00:45:08.40
>> YES. >> -- THAT
WASN'T LEADING PEOPLE
00:45:08.40\00:45:10.61
TO GOD, BUT THEN ON THE OTHER
-HAND YOU WERE PASSING OUT THE
BOOKS, AND DOING ALL OF THAT.
00:45:10.61\00:45:15.78
>> THAT'S RIGHT. YES.
00:45:15.78\00:45:17.38
>> AT WHAT POINT DID YOU REALIZE
THAT I DIDN'T BE IN BOTH WORLDS?
00:45:17.38\00:45:21.15
WHAT HAPPENED TO
YOU THAT YOU REALIZED --
00:45:21.15\00:45:25.09
>> THE LORD SHOWED ME THAT YOU
HAVE GOT TO DO ONE OR THE OTHER.
00:45:25.09\00:45:28.69
>> UH-HUH. >> SAYS
NO MAN CAN SERVE TWO
00:45:28.69\00:45:35.80
MASTERS. >> UH-HUH.
00:45:35.80\00:45:36.77
>> YOU CAN'T DO BOTH. >> UH-HUH.
00:45:36.77\00:45:38.80
>> IF YOU ARE GOING
TO SERVE ME, SERVE ME.
00:45:38.80\00:45:41.87
IF YOU ARE GOING
TO DO THIS, DO THAT.
00:45:41.87\00:45:44.84
BUT IT OUGHT TO BE MY CHILD.
YOU HAVE GOT TO GIVE IT ALL TO
00:45:44.84\00:45:50.21
ME. I DON'T WANT HALF OF YOU.
00:45:50.21\00:45:53.48
I WANT ALL OF YOU. I
WANT TO KEEP YOU AND DIRECT
00:45:53.48\00:46:00.22
YOU AND SANCTIFY YOUR LIFE.
AND IF YOU LIVE FOR ME AND KEEP
00:46:00.22\00:46:05.69
MY COMMANDMENTS, AND DO WHAT MY
SPIRIT SHOWS YOU TO DO, I WILL
00:46:05.69\00:46:10.87
GUIDE YOU AND KEEP YOU
AND LEAD YOU ALL THE WAY.
00:46:10.87\00:46:13.74
>> YES. YES.
00:46:13.74\00:46:15.64
>> WE'RE GOING TO CLOSE THIS
PART OF THE INTERVIEW DOWN, BUT
00:46:15.64\00:46:20.41
I WANT YOU TO MAYBE LOOK
INTO THIS CAMERA, AND THERE ARE
00:46:20.41\00:46:23.81
PEOPLE THERE WHO ARE HURTING.
THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO FEEL LIKE
00:46:23.81\00:46:27.65
THERE'S NO HOPE FOR THEM.
THEY ARE SO MISERABLE WITH THEIR
00:46:27.65\00:46:31.42
LIFE. SOME OF THESE FOLK ARE
00:46:31.42\00:46:33.39
CHRISTIANS. THAT'S
WHY THEY ARE WATCHING
00:46:33.39\00:46:35.02
THIS CHRISTIAN NETWORK, BUT
INSIDE THEY DON'T HAVE PEACE.
00:46:35.02\00:46:38.36
>> UH-HUH. >> WHAT
WOULD LITTLE RICHARD AT
00:46:38.36\00:46:41.03
THIS POINT IN YOUR LIFE, IF YOU
COULD LOOK INTO A LOST AND DYING
00:46:41.03\00:46:46.10
WORLD, WHAT ADVICE
WOULD YOU GIVE THEM?
00:46:46.10\00:46:49.24
>> I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING.
I'M SURE THAT YOU HAVE TRIED
00:46:49.24\00:46:56.01
EVERYTHING. BUT
YOU AIN'T TRIED NOTHING
00:46:56.01\00:46:58.78
UNTIL YOU TRIED
JESUS. >> UH-HUH.
00:46:58.78\00:47:02.85
>> HE WILL SHOW YOU THE
WAY BECAUSE HE IS THE WAY.
00:47:02.85\00:47:10.96
>> UH-HUH. >> THERE
IS ONE WAY, AND THAT
00:47:10.96\00:47:14.36
WAY IS JESUS. HE WILL
GIVE YOU ETERNAL LIFE.
00:47:14.36\00:47:18.40
HE WILL GIVE YOU PEACE SURRENTY
IN THIS WORLD HERE, AND HE IS
00:47:18.40\00:47:26.68
GOING TO GIVE YOU ETERNAL
LIFE IN THE WORLD TO COME.
00:47:26.68\00:47:29.58
>> HUM. >> MAKE UP YOUR MIND.
00:47:29.58\00:47:31.88
YOU DON'T CARE WHAT YOUR FRIENDS
SAY ABOUT YOU, OR WHAT THEY
00:47:31.88\00:47:35.85
THINK ABOUT YOU.
MAKE UP YOUR MIND TO GIVE
00:47:35.85\00:47:38.65
EVERYTHING TO JESUS. >> UH-HUH.
00:47:38.65\00:47:40.69
>> LET JESUS
LIVE IN YOU. >> AMEN.
00:47:40.69\00:47:43.43
>> LET HIM WALK IN YOU.
LET HIM SHOW YOU THE RIGHT WAY
00:47:43.43\00:47:49.16
AND LET HIM LET YOU KNOW THAT
HE CAN KEEP YOU FROM FALLING.
00:47:49.16\00:47:55.97
>> UH-HUH. >> TO
KEEP YOU FROM FALLING
00:47:55.97\00:48:00.31
BEFORE THE PRESENCE OF
HIS GLORY TO EXCEED IN JOY.
00:48:00.31\00:48:03.28
>> YES. >> DON'T FORGET THAT.
00:48:03.28\00:48:05.08

>> PRAISE GOD.
>> THANK YOU JESUS.
00:51:43.30\00:51:46.53
>> THANK YOU. I
DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU, BUT I
00:51:46.53\00:51:49.87
HAVE ABOUT GOT
CHILL BUMPS ON ME.
00:51:49.87\00:51:52.04
>> HE IS ON FIRE FOR GOD.
AND THAT'S WHAT I WANT TO SEE.
00:51:52.04\00:51:55.08
ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I WAS
THINKING, DANNY IS THAT -- AND I
00:51:55.08\00:51:58.91
THINK PASTOR JOHN KIND OF
BROUGHT IT OUT A LITTLE WHILE
00:51:58.91\00:52:01.65
AGO IS THAT HE HAS
REACHED -- RICHARD HAS REACHED A
00:52:01.65\00:52:05.49
MOUNTAIN TOP AND YET -- AND HE
HAD EVERYTHING THAT MONEY COULD
00:52:05.49\00:52:11.59
BUY, AND YET HE IS CHOOSING GOD,
BECAUSE HE KNOWS THAT THAT IS
00:52:11.59\00:52:14.73
THE RIGHT THING. THERE
ARE SO MANY PEOPLE THAT
00:52:14.73\00:52:17.97
WANT TO BE FAMOUS, AND THEY ARE
THINKING THIS IS GOING TO WORK
00:52:17.97\00:52:22.30
FOR ME. BUT
RICHARD HAS BEEN THERE, AND
00:52:22.30\00:52:25.41
YOU CAN SEE FROM
HIM, IT DOESN'T WORK.
00:52:25.41\00:52:28.44
IT IS ALL ABOUT JESUS. AND
THAT'S WHAT HE IS ALL ABOUT.
00:52:28.44\00:52:33.25
FAME AND FORTUNE THAT STUFF IS
FLEETING, AND RICHARD HAS BEEN
00:52:33.25\00:52:37.15
THERE, AND HIS LIFE IS
A TESTIMONY TO THAT FACT.
00:52:37.15\00:52:39.45
IN THAT HE HAS BEEN THERE AND HE
CHOOSES JESUS, AND THAT'S WHAT
00:52:39.45\00:52:43.39
YOU SHOULD DO. CHOOSE JESUS.
00:52:43.39\00:52:46.96
>> AMEN. AND YOU
KNOW WHAT I WOULD LIKE
00:52:46.96\00:52:49.03
TO DO? >> WHAT?
00:52:49.03\00:52:50.53
>> I WANT TO DO
ANOTHER INTERVIEW WITH HIM.
00:52:50.53\00:52:52.87
>> I WANT TO GO
TOO. [ LAUGHTER ]
00:52:52.87\00:52:54.87
>> YEAH, BE READY.
WE WANT TO HEAR MORE.
00:52:54.87\00:52:57.97
>> THAT'S RIGHT. >>
WE ONLY HAVE A COUPLE OF
00:52:57.97\00:53:00.61
MINUTES LEFT, YOU GUYS,
GIVE US SOME CLOSING COMMENTS.
00:53:00.61\00:53:03.61
>> GO AHEAD. >> OH,
TO THE YOUNGER GUY, HUH?
00:53:03.61\00:53:09.02
[ LAUGHTER ] >> BUT
WHAT DOES IT PROPHET A
00:53:09.02\00:53:11.32
MAN IF HE GAINS THE
WHOLE WORLD AND LOSES HIS SOUL.
00:53:11.32\00:53:15.86
THERE IS A DAY THAT IS COMING,
A DAY THAT CANNOT BE CANCELED,
00:53:15.86\00:53:22.70
DETERRED OR DELAYS, IT'S A DAY
THAT IS DOING, AND RICHARD KNOWS
00:53:22.70\00:53:27.54
THAT. >> YES.
00:53:27.54\00:53:28.27
>> SO THE HUMILITY THAT
HE HAD TO GO THROUGH -- AND I
00:53:28.27\00:53:32.11
REMEMBER -- I REMEMBER THE POINT
THAT CAME OUT, I THINK IN THE
00:53:32.11\00:53:35.61
CONVERSATION, WHRE HE ALLUDED
TO THE IDEA THAT BECAUSE HE HAS
00:53:35.61\00:53:39.55
DEALT WITH SOME PHYSICAL
CHALLENGES, HE SAID THAT MAY
00:53:39.55\00:53:42.78
HAVE BEEN THE LORD'S
WAY OF SLOWING HIM DOWN.
00:53:42.78\00:53:44.89
>> OKAY. >> SO HE
COULD GET HIM READY FOR
00:53:44.89\00:53:49.02
ETERNITY. >> OKAY.
00:53:49.02\00:53:49.89
>> SO THERE MAY BE PEOPLE THAT
MAY BE WONDERING WHY DO I GO
00:53:49.89\00:53:53.23
THROUGH WHAT I GO THROUGH, AND
WHY DO I HAVE TO HIT THIS WALL.
00:53:53.23\00:53:58.37
AND PASTOR HENRY WROTE,
SOMETIMES GOD ALLOWS THE LESSER
00:53:58.37\00:54:04.54
EVIL TO PRESENT THE GREATER
-EVIL. THERE IS ONE THING MONEY
00:54:04.54\00:54:10.21
CANNOT BUY, AND THAT'S THE FREE
GIFT OF SALVATION, AND THAT IS
00:54:10.21\00:54:15.02
WHY NOW EVERY DAY WHEN HE IS
AWAKE, HE TRAVELS WHEREVER HE
00:54:15.02\00:54:19.59
IS, AND YOU CAN BE SURE, SOMEODY
IS GOING TO GET A "STEPS TO
00:54:19.59\00:54:27.23
CHRIST," "PEACE ABOVE THE
STORM," OR ONE OF THOSE BOOKS,
00:54:27.23\00:54:34.07
AND YOU HAD A STORY ALONG
THAT LINE -- >> YEAH, IN THE
00:54:34.07\00:54:37.51
INTERVIEW IT WAS THERE, BUT A
LADY, YEARS YEARS LATER ON
FACEBOOK, WHEN I TOLL
00:54:37.51\00:54:44.55
ABOUT THIS ON FACEBOOK, SHE WAS
AIMLESSLY WALKING IN HOLLYWOOD,
00:54:44.55\00:54:50.02
AND LITTLE RICHARD GAVE HER
"STEPS TO CHRIST," AND SHE IS A
00:54:50.02\00:54:56.06
SEVENTH-DAY
ADVENTIST CHRISTIAN TODAY.
00:54:56.06\00:54:57.86
>> VERY QUICKLY. I'M
SO GLAD THAT GOD LOOKS AT
00:54:57.86\00:55:01.03
OUR LIFE ON THE
VIDEO, AND NOT THE SNAPSHOT.
00:55:01.03\00:55:03.63
IF YOU LOOKED AT LITTLE RICHARD
40 YEARS AGO, AND TAKEN A
00:55:03.63\00:55:10.27
SNAPSHOT OF HIS LIFE, HE WOULD
HAVE BEEN LOST, BUT GOD LOOKS AT
00:55:10.27\00:55:14.91
THE VIDEO FROM THE
START TO THE FINISH.
00:55:14.91\00:55:17.68
AND NOW GOD SEES A MAN
THAT IS ON FIRE FOR THE LORD.
00:55:17.68\00:55:21.08
AND THAT'S WHAT HE IS
GOING TO TAKE INTO JUDGMENT.
00:55:21.08\00:55:24.09
>> AMEN. >> HIGH
SCHOOL KIDS, COLLEGE
00:55:24.09\00:55:27.49
KIDS, THEY WANT TO BE FAMOUS.
THEY WANT TO MAKE A LOT OF
00:55:27.49\00:55:30.89
MONEY. WHAT DO YOU
TELL THEM RIGHT NOW?
00:55:30.89\00:55:33.33
>> THAT YOU HAVE TO REALLY THINK
ABOUT WHERE YOUR PRIORITIES ARE.
00:55:33.33\00:55:37.40
IF YOU HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED
IT, THEN YOU CAN'T REALLY -- YOU
00:55:37.40\00:55:42.04
CAN'T REALLY MAKE A
GOOD JUDGMENT ABOUT IT.
00:55:42.04\00:55:44.81
TRY JESUS FIRST. ONCE
YOU TRY JESUS, YOU ARE NOT
00:55:44.81\00:55:48.21
GOING TO WANT ALL OF THE REST OF
THAT, BECAUSE YOU ARE GOING TO
00:55:48.21\00:55:51.95
REALIZE THAT IT
REALLY DOESN'T MATTER.
00:55:51.95\00:55:53.82
IT'S NOT GOING
TO MAKE YOU HAPPY.
00:55:53.82\00:55:56.02
IT'S NOT GOING TO BUY YOU
THAT PEACE THAT PASSES ALL
00:55:56.02\00:56:00.32
UNDERSTANDING, BUT
JESUS -- JESUS IS THE WAY.
00:56:00.32\00:56:02.96
HE IS THE WAY. >> AND
YOU KNOW IT, NOT ON THE
00:56:02.96\00:56:06.13
SCALE OF LITTLE RICHARD,
BUT YOUR BREAST FRIEND, LUTHER
00:56:06.13\00:56:12.57
VANDROSS. YOU SAW
-- YOU SPENT A LOT OF
00:56:12.57\00:56:14.34
TIME WITH HIM, AND YOU SAW WHAT
THE WORLD HAD TO OFFER, BUT YOU
00:56:14.34\00:56:17.77
CHOSE ALL OF THE PLACES I HAVE
BEEN, AND EVERYTHING THAT I HAVE
00:56:17.77\00:56:22.08
DONE, I -- I TRADE THAT FOR
MY RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS, AND
00:56:22.08\00:56:26.41
WHAT YOU ARE
DOING AT DARE TO DREAM.
00:56:26.41\00:56:29.15
>> THAT'S RIGHT.
>> YOU CAN'T COMPARE.
00:56:29.15\00:56:31.02
THERE'S NO COMPARISON.
>> SO SHE SPEAKS FROM
00:56:31.02\00:56:34.66
EXPERIENCE. SHE HAVE BEEN THERE.
00:56:34.66\00:56:36.62
YOU HAVE SEVEN GOLD AND PLATINUM
RECORDS, BUT JESUS IS THE
00:56:36.62\00:56:42.00
ANSWER. JESUS
IS THE ONLY ANSWER.
00:56:42.00\00:56:43.47
>> ABSOLUTELY. >>
EVERYTHING ELSE IS SMOKE AND
00:56:43.47\00:56:46.94
MIRRORS. >> I LOVE IT.
00:56:46.94\00:56:47.94
[ LAUGHTER ] >> OKAY.
00:56:47.94\00:56:48.67
THANK YOU GUYS FOR BEING
HERE. AND THANK YOU AT HOME FOR
00:56:48.67\00:56:53.11
JOINING US AS YOU
DO EACH AND EVERY DAY.
00:56:53.11\00:56:55.11
