- Description:
- The title of the address is "Seeing Jesus,” and the main Scriptures include the following: Luke 24:25-27, 32, 50-53, Acts 7:55-56. This chapel's opening Scripture is Psalm 119:1-2, referring to those who are blessed who walk in the law of the LORD, who keep His testimonies, and who seek Him with their whole heart (00:50-01:00). The opening prayer speaks of thanksgiving to God, preparation of the hearts of those listening, and full reception of the message, for God's glory (01:13-03:35). An introduction is given for Crate Jones: a native of Louisville, Kentucky, who served as Pastor of a church in Rolesville, North Carolina. He has a college degree from the University of Wake Forest, and he has a theological degree from Southern Baptist Theological Seminary (03:40-04:37). His message focuses on the three ways we will see Jesus: from the Scriptures, in our own hearts, and one day, in person (04:42-06:33). He gives six comparisons to Jesus's humanity and divinity from the Gospels, ranging from Jesus's calming the storm to resurrecting from death in glory (12:37-14:28). He gives an illustration from Dr. E. Stanley Jones about seeing Jesus in our hearts, viewing Christ's work on the cross as "Love crucified by sin" (15:22-18:44) Through a classroom illustration, Jones makes the point that the only thing God cannot see is sin which has been covered by the blood of Jesus (18:45-19:53). Finally, from 1 John 3:2, Crate Jones concludes his message by leading his hearers to imagine gazing upon the person of Jesus Christ forever in Heaven (20:30-25:54). His closing prayer is that Jesus would become even more real to Christians and that they may know Him from the Scriptures (27:48-29:00).

- The service opens by the reading of Luke 4:16-20a (0:00-01:33), followed by a mention of worship to “When I Survey the Wondrous Cross,” but the music cuts out (01:34-02:04). An opening prayer is given (02:05-05:02). Garland A. Hendricks, the Director of Field Work, begins his message with a story from New Delhi, India in 1959 concerning the Caste system there. He describes the condition in India concerning their poverty, their Caste system, their way of living, and their economic conditions, affirming that “India is a democracy growing up” (05:03-11:01). He then transitions to the year 1960 in New Delhi, as democracy was making progress in India and arising problems were evidence of growth and development there (11:02-12:40). He then transitions to the year 1965 (the current year) in North Carolina at SEBTS, recording that Christians face problems even here, where hunger, starvation, and warfare are not every-day concerns (12:41-14:51). He requests of God that He would use SEBTS as a center to spread the gospel across the world as His people there continue to abide in Jesus Christ (14:52-18:07). Hendricks then offers a closing prayer, asking for sustaining grace to the people of God for the work ahead of them (18:08-18:27).

- Description:
- Various verses of the Bible are read (00:19-01:10), and an opening prayer occurs (01:26-02:44). Hymn #340, “The Prayer Hymn” is sung in worship (03:00-05:37). There is no introduction for Dr. Green, but he was Professor of Hebrew and Old Testament at SEBTS. Dr. Green begins his message with a contemplation of whether or not we as God’s children may bring our personal needs/concerns to Him, concluding that we can (05:38-08:05). He also mentions the distinctive quality of his subject, intercessory prayer—involving not only our needs but primarily the needs of others—as he cites Romans 8:26 to say that the Holy Spirit also intercedes on our behalf to the Father (08:06-11:25). Dr. Green lists some prerequisites of intercessory prayer, such as three theological foundations: we come from God and are utterly dependent on Him in this life; we are unified to one another in Christ even if we are not present with each other; and we belong to God as His children (11:26-21:16) Lastly, Dr. Green speaks about the price of intercessory prayer, including its intensely social aspect and its highly unselfish nature (21:17-21:50). Intercessory prayer for someone else is incomplete without praying God’s will to be done in yourself as well (21:51-26:41). He then closes the service in prayer (26:42-27:11).

Reverend Sampson was accompanied by other chaplains at this chapel service as SEBTS were recognizing many of those who served. Rev.

- Description:
- The service begins with the reading of Psalm 19:7-9 (00:00-00:41) and prayer (00:52-02:04). A brief introduction is given for Jim Allen, the pastor of the speaker, Robert Morgan (02:05-02:31). Jim Allen introduces Robert Morgan according to his Christian testimony, education, and working background. He served 5 consecutive terms as senator of Harnett County in North Carolina, and he was the Attorney General of the State of North Carolina. The title of his address is “The Christian and Politics” (02:32-04:29). He does not believe that the church should involve itself in protestant politics nor divide its congregation by taking dogmatic positions on political issues; however, he does believe the church should seek to find Christian answers for the problems that confront us in daily life and also in government circles. There is no prohibition between a mixture of politics and religion in the Constitution, and Christians cannot keep the two separated (04:30-16:02). To do this, we must show charitable compassion, a Christian voice in politics, and encouragement for governmental leadership (16:03-28:56). He ends his time in prayer (28:57-29:14), and the service ends with low instrumental music (29:15-29:23).

- Description:
- The service begins with the reading of Psalm 118:24 (00:00-00:19), responsive reading #29 (00:20-01:57), and prayer (01:58-02:45). No introduction was given for Sherman Lewis, but he was a student at SEBTS. His message centers on Ezekiel 37:1-14, and he points out that the dead bones refer to the Jews in captivity in Babylon (02:46-06:21). He then relates this “deadness” to our current churches, in which many pastors simply desire to preach a sermon on Sunday but do not desire to cultivate the lives of those in their care (06:22-08:52). He also relates this “deadness” to the existence of racism as that which is not living—not behaving according to God’s good design. In this, he optimistically focuses on the sovereign rule of God and the promise of the restoration of these evils when love and peace will reign on the earth (08:53-11:44). We must be ready to deal with the difficult and oftentimes avoided circumstances in life as Christians who are bold because they know the Living God. We must be able to say “thus sayeth the Lord” in our own time (11:45-14:06). Lewis closes his time in prayer (14:07-15:59).

- Description:
- The service opens with responsive reading #73 in the hymnals (00:00-02:50) and prayer (02:51-06:36). No introduction is given for Sherrill G. Stevens, but he was Instructor in New Testament at SEBTS. His message begins with the subject of crusades for territorial conquest, including the Israelite conquering of the Holy Land and the infamous Crusades of the Church. He mentions that the Crusades have not been a mixed evil or purely beneficial for the Church and the world, but they have been tainted by man’s sinfulness while remaining a picture of committed devotion (07:26-10:53). While the Crusades have been tainted, Stevens believes that Christians should still accept the principle of crusading, waging a vigorous campaign in both our own lives as well as in society for transformation (10:54-14:55). After reading Philippians 3:7-11, he says that Christians should not wage territorial war but war on sin. In this sense, Christians ought to always be crusaders (14:56-17:31). He ends the service in prayer (17:32-18:21), and the audio ends with instrumental music (18:21-18:33).
