Some time ago, across to Central America, here there’s a—a minister by the name of—of Daniel Greenfield. And he went to sleep one night, and he dreamed. And he dreamed that he died, and he was taken up to the gates of paradise. And when he knocked at the door, the doorkeeper came, said, “Who are thou, that desires to enter these gates?” He said, “I’m Danny Greenfield.” Said, “I am the—the American evangelist.” Said, “Just a moment, sir. I will see if I can find any record of you here.” He came back, and he said, “There’s no record here of you.” “Oh,” he said, “there must be something wrong. Surely, my record is there.” “No, there’s no record here.” Said, “Well, what shall I do?” Said, “There’s only one thing that you can do, if you wish to. You can appeal your case to the white throne judgment, if you wish to appeal your case.” And he said, “Well, if that’s all I can do; I will do it.” 34 So he said he begin to move out through space. He said, “It seemed for some time he traveled just in space. And after while, he come into where it begin to get light, lighter, lighter, and the lighter it got, slower he begin to move. And finally, right in the center of this Light, he stopped. There was no certain place it was coming from, but just all around him, extreme Light. Just many times stronger, and more brighter than the sun. And he said, “He looked around, and after while, a great deep voice, said, ‘Who art thou, that stands before My judgment?’” And he said, “I’m Daniel Greenfield, the American evangelist. I came to the gates of paradise, and I was asked to come here to Your judgment seat to have my case pleaded.” Said, the voice came back and said, “Very well, Daniel Greenfield, I will try you at My judgment seat.” And He said, “I have a law that you must be tried by.” Said, “Daniel Greenfield, did you ever tell a lie, while you was on earth?” He said, “I thought I’d been a truthful man, but in the Presence of that Light,” he said, “I seen a lot of things that I had said that wasn’t right.” And he said, “Yes, Lord, I lied.” He said, “Daniel Greenfield, did you ever steal, while you were on earth?” And he said, “If anything I thought I’d been, I’d been honest.” But said, “In the Presence of that great Light, I seen a many a little shady deal I pulled.” 35 Listen, friends, you might think you’re all right now, but in the Presence of that Light, it’ll be different. It’ll certainly be different. You might be a good church member; you might dress good; you might help the poor. That might be all right, but oh, in the Presence of that Light, that white throne judgment… And then the voice said, “Daniel Greenfield, was you perfect in your life?” “Oh,” he said, “no, Lord, I wasn’t perfect.” And said, “He was listening for a great blast to come from the—somewhere, and say, ‘Then depart from Me.’” Said, “His bones begin to come unjointed, as it were, and he was trembling, knowing that he would sink into a devil’s hell in a few minutes, to be there for eternity.” And said, “While he was thinking that, and listening for the voice.” He said, “I heard a voice behind me, was the sweetest voice I ever heard in all my life.” He said, “It was sweeter than any mother’s voice, that I ever heard.” And said, “When I turned, I seen the sweetest face, I ever saw.” And said, “He put His arm around me, and He said, ‘Father, that’s true; Daniel Greenfield wasn’t perfect in his life, but there’s one thing he did: when My glory was made known, Daniel Greenfield stood for Me on earth. Now, I’ll stand for him up here.’” 36 Oh, God, let that be my plea tonight. Let me stand for Him like the queen of Sheba did in the face of critics. Let me take my position and stand for Him, for on that day, no merit will I have, I’ll trust in His alone.
