Martin Luther King's Last Speech
Speech from 3 April 1968, Church of God in Christ, Memphis, Tennessee
On 4 April 1968, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated.
"Some people see God as they see a cow, and love Him as they love a cow — for the milk and cheese, and the profit it brings. This is how it is with people who love God for the sake of worldly possessions or inward comfort. They do not truly love God when they love Him for their own advantage. The eye through which I see God is the same eye through which God sees me; my eye and God's eye are one eye — one seeing, one knowing, one love.”
Meister Eckhart, Predigten und Traktate
