Holiness, Holiness is what I long for
Holiness is what I need (oh oh)
Holiness, Holiness is what you want for me

[Verse 2:]
Righteousness, Righteousness is what I long for
Righteousness is what I need. (that’s what I need)
Righteousness, that’s what you want, that’s what you want, that’s what you want for me
So take my…

Take my heart and mold it,
Take my mind transform it, (take)
Take my will conform it, (to yours)
To yours, to yours, own

Brokenness, Brokeness, is what I long for
Brokeness is what I need (gotta be broken)

Take my heart and mold it, (take… my mind)
Take my mind transform it, (take my will)
Take my will conform it, (conform my will)

“There will be no great Revival until the people of God are deeply

convicted of their need for holiness.”   

-MAJOR ALLISTAIRE SMITH (Salvation Army).



“A God-sent Revival must ever be related to holiness” 

– Duncan Campbell.



“Holiness has been the message of saints of God down the

centuries, and was the foundation of the glorious Revivals of

Christianity under the original Quakers, Methodists and the

Salvation Army and wherever it is truly known and experienced,

it is the bringer-in of Revival today.” – PAGET WILKES.



“That such widespread misunderstanding should exist about the

word (sanctification) and its meaning, is a spiritual disaster. If 

there is one New Testament term more than another which calls

for rescue it is that precious, expressive word, Sanctification.”

-Sidlow Baxter. 



 “Believers must be brought into the conviction of the shame and evil

of the carnal state. God brings believers  into, what may be called,

a second conviction – conviction of a need of deliverance from

the power of sin.”  – ANDREW MURRAY.



“True holiness is a Revival of Holiness. Personal holiness is more

desirable than happiness, he (Duncan Campbell) taught, and it is

not in heaven alone that God wants our saintliness – it is here and

now; holiness is not just a doctrine to be taught, it is a way of life –

it is the life of Jesus.” – DUNCAN CAMPBELL.



“God Who delivers us from the guilt of sin through faith in Jesus

Christ is able to deliver the believer from the power of sin as

well.” – J. EDWIN ORR.



-From the Book, “Holiness The Key To Revival” by Patricia Knowles.

RUSH: By the way, folks, the Jacksonville mayor is saying that his decision to reopen the beaches has paid off really, really well. The numbers in Florida compared to say, New York, you go to Duval County, which is where Jacksonville is — let me just give you some numbers. This are hospitalizations. You know, Ron DeSantis is being attacked these days because he’s thought to be all over the ballpark in making his suggestions and so forth. DeSantis is doing a great job.

 

COVID-19 hospitalizations, New York — this is per 100,000 — 87 hospitalizations per 100,000 people hospitalized in New York. That’s through April 19th. This through two days ago. That’s certainly not even crisis proportions, 87 per 100,000. The Duval County number where Jacksonville is, is 6.9 COVID-19 hospitalizations per 100,000.

But it gets even better. COVID-19 hospitalizations currently hospitalized per 100,000, New York 87.2. Florida statewide, 9.8%. We’ll round it up to 10. Ten people hospitalized in Florida per 100,000 hospitalizations, 87 in New York. It’s 86 in New Jersey. And 54 in Connecticut and Massachusetts.

Fatalities. Fatalities, COVID-19 fatalities per 100,000, New York 96.5. Florida, 3.7. So for every 100,000 deaths, Florida has had 3.7 attributed to COVID-19, 96 and a half in New York, 47 New Jersey, 31 Connecticut. Here are COVID-19 fatalities per 100,000 and in Duval County. It’s the same stats, it’s just county instead of state. Duval County, where Jacksonville opened the beach, 1.6 fatalities per 100,000 where they opened the beaches versus 96 and a half fatalities per 100,000 in New York.

And everybody’s, “Don’t open the beaches! It’s horrible, it’s terrible, it’s gonna spread.” No, it’s not. The very idea that people want it to, the very idea — does it not alarm any of you that there’s a political apparatus out there that wants the news to continue to be bad, that wants the country’s economy to continue to be closed and shut down?

I know it alarms you. I know those of you in this audience. But this has got to be occurring to people who are maybe not as politically attuned on a daily basis as you are. It doesn’t make sense to want the economy shut down with no end in sight. It doesn’t make sense to want to continue to have businesses closed, for people not to have jobs, unemployment rising. This doesn’t make sense. And yet there are people advocating it, usually hiding behind, “Well, we’ve gotta do this, Rush, to make sure we keep — if it saves just one life.”

 

Right. If it saves just one life, I’m for reopening the U.S. economy.
