Look at God. Through this man's pain and dark times, God has blessed many through the invention of Gospel music. Precious Lord has saved so many lives and lifted so many hearts, but it was born in despair. I hope that it encourages someone going through difficulty. This time of pain and despair is not for nothing. God is birthing something better in you for the upbuilding of His kingdom. Be blessed!

Hi Melissa hope you're okay?

[@ejmossman5365]

Have you ever been in such pain that it seems the only comfort you can find is in music. If not for Thomas Dorsey. There is no telling where I would be.

To the people or person that posted this video, thank you so much. I am bringing his life and legacy to my English class, and how his beautiful gift of music has blesseed the gospel industry. His work in the early 1900 was a blessing then, and it is still blessing us now. I am a huge fan of choir and chorus music. I am always amazed at how 100 codes voices can sound like one, and few sound like 1000.

We owe a great deal to these faithful "pioneers of the faith:. They laid the foundation for succeeding generations of believers. We must return to the principles of the Word and holiness.

[@kennethmorningstar9966]

This man contributed more to American music than he gets credit for. All those Motown cats like Otis Redding, Aretha Franklin, Smokey Robinson, ect. They were all trained by him when they were kids at his singing summer camp.

[@NIJEECAPRICORN23]

Otis Redding and Aretha are not Motown. Aretha was signed with Atlantic and columbia records and Otis was with Stax records.

Listening to this makes me wonder why humans still resist the change as music evolves and new ideas are brought. Folks will down new artists for including themes from secular music and say “that ain’t church,” but you see in this documentary, the “traditional gospel music,” was banned initially.

It's a shame that a lot of material got burnt in the old pilgrim baptist church.

[@servant4473]

Holy Ghost is the Leader.

[@rossdaboss1959]

For salvation, we just need to follow the way they did it in Acts? They were baptized in water for the removal of sins and filled with the Holy Ghost. Acts 2:38! Here's why! The gospel is the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. 1 Corinthians 15:1-4. If we are to follow him, we must do the same thing. Death= repentance, Burial = baptism, and resurrection = being filled and rising again from the dead and walking in the newness of life. That's what Acts 2:38 is. We must obey the gospel, 2 Thessalonians 1:8-9, in flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that OBEY NOT THE GOSPEL of our Lord Jesus Christ... Matthew 7:21-23, Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that DOETH THE WILL OF MY FATHER which is in Heaven. St John 3:3-5, EXCEPT a man, be born of WATER AND OF THE SPIRIT, he cannot enter into the kingdom of GOD. We can't come up with our own gospel. Galatians 1:8-9, But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. Don't be cursed. One way for all people. Jews, Gentiles, and Samaritans. Our salvation has to match up with the scriptures and no scriptures on the subject can be taken away. Eternity is TOOO long to be WRONG! st, John 5:39, Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. The gospels show what Christ has done on the cross for us. The book of Acts shows us the beginning of Christ's Church and how to enter the Church, obeying Acts 2:38. The letters were written to the Church to show us how to behave now that we are born again into the Church. It's better to walk alone than to walk with a crowd going in the wrong direction. Are we supposed to follow the teachings of the apostles? Acts 2:42, And they continued steadfastly in the apostle's doctrines. Ephesians 2:20, We are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief cornerstone. Don't get Titus 3:5 mixed up with James 2:14-26, about WORKS. One is a WORK of your OWN RIGHTEOUSNESS OR GOOD DEEDS and the other is a WORK OF FAITH. Titus 1:16, They profess that they know God; but in WORKS they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate. God bless you.

[@camprich6768]

That's what you call precious God's music. Not the gold medal Yolanda Adams, Clark sisters, shirley ceasar, Mary Mary, vickie winans with revealing attires, jewelry all over the place , impressing people, collecting money, Kirk Franklin, ms. Leandrea Johnson cussing people out looking for attention to be famous. These are the people that are using their ministry and gifts searching the Lord.
