Ken Gullicksen was a gentle soul and influential in the lives of artists Bob Dylan, Keith Green and music producer T-Bone Burnett.
Keith Green passed away on July 28th, 1982! I want to remember him with a series of posts and today I have quoted below from a book about him!!!
I pledge my head to heaven
One night at the studio I was sitting in a beanbag chair, cuddling Bethany Grace during what seemed like a fairly typical evening. Then Bob Dylan showed up to play harmonica on “I Pledge My Head to Heaven.” It was, all at once, totally incredible! We’d spent some time getting to know Bob on various occasions before moving to Texas. We’d first met Bob through an elder at the Vineyard sometime after our revival time in California. Apparently Bob’s girlfriend had gone to a Vineyard service, where she gave her heart to Jesus. After receiving some basic Christian counseling that she shouldn’t be living with her boyfriend, she decided to move out. The elder at the Vineyard had no idea that the boyfriend was Bob Dylan—that is until Bob called to set up an appointment and talk about why his girlfriend was encouraged to move out. In the process of conversation with the elder from the Vineyard, Bob, who was Jewish, heard all about Jesus. Somewhere along the way, he also got turned on to Keith’s music and loved the rawness, which is why he wanted to meet Keith. By the time we actually met, Bob had already been studying the Bible and learning about Jesus. We had invited him over for dinner, and I cooked him hamburgers at our house. The unrealness of it far surpassed cooking for Teddy Neely of Jesus Christ Superstar. Bob Dylan was one of the most famous people in the world, and here we were just having a casual meal together on the secondhand fold-out table in our living room! The most memorable time we spent with Bob was at his apartment and office near Santa Monica. It was during the time he was writing the songs for his album Slow Train Coming, and Bob pulled out some lyric sheets for us to read. He wanted to know what we thought and we told him—the lyrics were great. Then Keith and I exchanged glances, both thinking, Can you believe one of the world’s greatest songwriters is asking our opinion? Maybe it was his vulnerability that bonded our hearts to his in a special way. At any rate, Bob seemed to want to know what Keith thought in other areas besides music. Although he was one of the most well-known musicians in the world, he was also the same as anyone who wanted to know more about God—full of eager questions and fresh excitement about his spiritual discoveries. He told us that he loved to pick up hitchhikers and tell them about Jesus. They never recognized him because he drove a beat-up old car and wore a knit ski hat over his famous curls. He also told us that he didn’t like to get out of bed before reading ten chapters of the Bible. We were impressed! Keith really loved Bob, and they talked a lot. Once, however, Keith felt he went too far in trying to make a point. Later, in his journal, Keith wrote with deep regret: “Tried to be the Holy Spirit to Bob Dylan today. . . .” But there seemed to be something very special taking place between them. Keith had the greatest admiration for Bob and once said to me, “He’s a prophet waiting to get saved.” One night we took Bob over to Buck and Annie’s house along with Bill Maxwell. We listened to Second Chapter’s latest album as well as some rough mixes from Bob’s latest album, Saved. Bob fell in love with Second Chapter’s music and asked them to open for him on his upcoming tour. They prayed, but didn’t feel a release to do it. We were a bit surprised. Had Bob asked us, we would have gone with him in a heartbeat just to hang out this man who had written the musical soundtrack for our generation. Besides, like us, Bob was Jewish, and we could have talked a lot about his new relationship with God. One of the main things Keith counseled Bob to do was to try and get some time off the road so he could rest, study, and grow in the Lord. Bob did attend a Bible school at the Vineyard for a while, but it seemed impossible for him to get away from all the ongoing demands on his life. Nevertheless, Bob had kept in contact with Keith after we moved to Texas, and when Keith asked him to play on this album, we were thrilled that Bob said yes. This night in the studio, Bob got ready to play the harmonica and he talked with Bill for a few minutes. He told Bill that For Him Who Has Ears to Hear was one of his favorite albums of all time! Bob was hoping Bill would use a similar production style for Keith on this album. As they set up the microphones and Bob began to play along to the track, I closed my eyes and held Bethany Grace close to my heart. It seemed like a dream as I listened to the familiar sound of this world-famous harmonica playing on a song about the possibility of my husband, my son, and even me, losing our lives for the sake of the gospel.

Wikipedia noted:
On October 20, 1979, Dylan promoted the album with his first—and, to date, only—appearance on Saturday Night Live, performing “Gotta Serve Somebody”, “I Believe in You”, and “When You Gonna Wake Up”. On November 1, Dylan began a lengthy residency at the Fox Warfield Theater in San Francisco, California, playing a total of fourteen dates supported by a large ensemble. It was the beginning of six months of touring North America, performing his new music to believers and his hecklers alike.
Despite the mixed reactions to Dylan’s new direction, “Gotta Serve Somebody” was a US Top 30 hit, and the album outsold both Blood on the Tracksand Blonde on Blonde in its first year of release[citation needed] despite missing the top of the charts. It even managed to place at No. 38 on The Village Voice‘s Pazz & Jop Critics Poll for 1979, proving he had some critical support if not universal acclaim.
During this period, Dylan refused to play any of his older compositions, as well as any secular material. Though Pastor Larry Myers had assured Dylan that his old compositions were not sacrilegious, Dylan would say he would not “sing any song which hasn’t been given to me by the Lord to sing”.[citation needed]Fans wishing to hear his older songs openly expressed their disappointment. Hecklers continued to appear at his concerts, only to be answered by lectures from the stage. Dylan was firmly entrenched in his evangelical ways, and it would continue through his next album, whether his audience would follow or not.

Bob Dylan – Saturday Night Live Performance (1979)
June 18, 2021
President Biden c/o The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington, DC 20500
Dear Mr. President,
I wanted to reach out to because of some of the troubling moral issues coming out of your administration. Let me first start off by pointing to the time you spent as Vice President and the obvious targeting of the TEA PARTY CONSERVATIVE GROUPS by the IRS! These actions remind me of Bob Dylan’s words:

“Adulterers in churches and pornography in the schools, You got gangsters in power and lawbreakers making rules, When you gonna wake up, When you gonna wake up, When you gonna wake up, And strengthen the things that remain?”
In my June 16, 2021 letter to you I mentioned:
This June, however, after protests turned to looting and violence in Minneapolis, Harris asked her Twitter followers to send money to the Minnesota Freedom Fund to bail out the rioters. The organization subsequently received $35 million and used it to bail out violent criminals, including a suspect who shot at police and a twice-convicted sex offender.
Reminds me of these words:
You got gangsters in power and lawbreakers making rules,
Why the IRS Persecuted the Tea Party and How to Fix the Problem
May 27, 2013 by Dan Mitchell
Did President Obama and his team of Chicago cronies deliberately target the Tea Party in hopes of thwarting free speech and political participation?
Was this part of a campaign to win the 2012 election by suppressing Republican votes?
Perhaps, but I’ve warned that it’s never a good idea to assume top-down conspiracies when corruption, incompetence, politics, ideology, greed, and self-interest are better explanations for what happens in Washington.
Writing for the Washington Examiner, Tim Carney has a much more sober and realistic explanation of what happened at the IRS.
If you take a group of Democrats who are also unionized government employees, and put them in charge of policing political speech, it doesn’t matter how professional and well-intentioned they are. The result will be much like the debacle in the Cincinnati office of the IRS. …there’s no reason to even posit evil intent by the IRS officials who formulated, approved or executed the inappropriate guidelines for picking groups to scrutinize most closely. …The public servants figuring out which groups qualified for 501(c)4 “social welfare” non-profit status were mostly Democrats surrounded by mostly Democrats. …In the 2012 election, every donation traceable to this office went to President Obama or liberal Sen. Sherrod Brown. This is an environment where even those trying to be fair could develop a disproportionate distrust of the Tea Party. One IRS worker — a member of NTEU and contributor to its PAC, which gives 96 percent of its money to Democratic candidates — explained it this way: “The reason NTEU mostly supports Democratic candidates for office is because Democratic candidates are mostly more supportive of civil servants/government employees.”
Tim concludes with a wise observation.
As long as we have a civil service workforce that leans Left, and as long as we have an income tax system that requires the IRS to police political speech, conservative groups can always expect special IRS scrutiny.
And my colleague Doug Bandow, in an article for the American Spectator, adds his sage analysis.
The real issue is the expansive, expensive bureaucratic state and its inherent threat to any system of limited government, rule of law, and individual liberty. …the broader the government’s authority, the greater its need for revenue, the wider its enforcement power, the more expansive the bureaucracy’s discretion, the increasingly important the battle for political control, and the more bitter the partisan fight, the more likely government officials will abuse their positions, violate rules, laws, and Constitution, and sacrifice people’s liberties. The blame falls squarely on Congress, not the IRS.
I actually think he is letting the IRS off the hook too easily.
- It has thieving employees.
- It has incompetent employees.
- It has thuggish employees.
- It has brainless employees.
- It has protectionist employees.
- It has wasteful employees.
- And it has victimizing employees.
But Doug’s overall point obviously is true.
…the denizens of Capitol Hill also have created a tax code marked by outrageous complexity, special interest electioneering, and systematic social engineering. Legislators have intentionally created avenues for tax avoidance to win votes, and then complained about widespread tax avoidance to win votes.
So what’s the answer?
The most obvious response to the scandal — beyond punishing anyone who violated the law — is tax reform. Implement a flat tax and you’d still have an IRS, but the income tax would be less complex, there would be fewer “preferences” for the agency to police, and rates would be lower, leaving taxpayers with less incentive for aggressive tax avoidance. …Failing to address the broader underlying factors also would merely set the stage for a repeat performance in some form a few years hence. …More fundamentally, government, and especially the national government, should do less. Efficient social engineering may be slightly better than inefficient social engineering, but no social engineering would be far better.
Amen. Let’s rip out the internal revenue code and replace it with a simple and fair flat tax.
But here’s the challenge. We know the solution, but it will be almost impossible to implement good policy unless we figure out some way to restrain the spending side of the fiscal ledger.
___________________________
At the risk of over-simplifying, we will never get tax reform unless we figure out how to implement entitlement reform.
Here’s another Foden cartoon, which I like because it has the same theme asthis Jerry Holbert cartoon, showing big government as a destructive and malicious force.

Francis Schaeffer in his book CHRISTIAN MANIFESTO noted:
CHAPTER 8 THE USE OF CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE (page 475) MOST OF CHAPTER 8
Page 475
Civil disobedience is, of course, a very serious matter and it must be stressed that Rutherford was the very opposite of an anarchist. In Lex Rex he does not propose armed revolution as an automatic solution. Instead, he sets forth the appropriate response to interference by the state in the liberties of the citizenry. Specifically, he stated that if the state deliberately is committed to destroying its ethical commitment to God then resistance is appropriate.
In such an instance, for the private person, the individual, Rutherford suggested that there are three appropriate levels of resistance: First,he must defend himself by protest (in contemporary society this would most often be by legal action); second, he must flee if at all possible; and third, he may use force, if necessary, to defend himself. One should not employ force if he may save himself by flight; nor should one employ flight if he can save himself and defend himself by protest and the employment of constitutional means of redress.
On the other hand, when the state commits illegitimate acts against a corporate body—such as a duly constituted state or local body, or even a church—then flight is often an impractical and unrealistic means of resistance. Therefore, with respect to a corporate group or community, there are two levels of resistance: remonstration (or protest) and then, if necessary, force employed in self-defense.
For a corporate body (a civil entity), when illegitimate state acts are perpetrated upon it, resistance should be under the protection of the duly constituted authorities: if possible, it should be under the rule of the lesser magistrates (local officials). Rutherford urged that the office of the local official is just as much from God as is the office of the highest state official. Rutherford said, “When the supreme magistrate will not execute the judgment of the Lord, those who made him supreme magistrate, under God, who have under God, sovereighn liberty to dispose of crowns and kingdoms, are to execute the judgment of the Lord, when wicked men make the law of God of none effect.”
Samuel Rutherford and Bob Dylan would have understood each other. In “When You Gonna Wake Up” from the album SLOW TRAIN COMING, Dylan has the lines:
“Adulterers in churches and pornography in the schools, You got gangsters in power and lawbreakers making rules, When you gonna wake up, When you gonna wake up, When you gonna wake up, And strengthen the things that remain?”
John MacArthur gave a sermon in June of 2021 entitled “When Government Rewards Evil and Punishes Good” and in that sermon he makes the following points:
INTRODUCTION AND DISCUSSION OF ROMANS 13
GOVERNMENT CAN FORFEIT ITS AUTHORITY
THE WORLD IS THE ENEMY OF THE GOSPEL
ALL OF HUMAN HISTORY IS PROGRESSING TOWARD A GLOBAL KINGDOM UNDER THE POWER OF SATAN
ONE FALSE WORLD RELIGION IS FINAL PLAY BY SATAN
REAL PERSECUTION CAN ONLY BE DONE BY GOVERNMENT
PERSECUTION IN BOOK OF DANIEL
THE LAW IS KING AND NOT THE GOVERNOR OF CALIFORNIA
GOVERNMENT HAS BECOME PURVEYOR OF WICKEDNESS
THERE IS A PLACE FOR CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE
DOES GOVERNMENT WIN?
Let me just share a portion of that sermon with you and you can watch it on You Tube:
ALL OF HUMAN HISTORY IS PROGRESSING TOWARD A GLOBAL KINGDOM UNDER THE POWER OF SATAN
Understand—all of human history is progressing toward a global kingdom under the power of Satan, in which Satan has one global monster ruling the whole world. He is a blasphemer—we’ve already seen it, but notice “blasphemies,” in verse 5, “blasphemies” in verse 6, “blaspheme” in verse 6 again. And verse 7, what does he do? He “makes war with the saints to overcome them, and authority over every tribe and people and tongue and nation was given to him.” This final, global ruler will make war against the saints.
Verse 8, “All who dwell on the earth will worship him, everyone whose name was not written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who had been slain.” The whole world is going to go after him. We’re headed toward a one-world, global government with one massive, monstrous leader.
He has a cohort in verses 11 and following. This is another monster who has two horns like a lamb. This is a more benign individual. This is the false prophet. This is the religious leader who, going along with the political leader, assists him. He exercises all the authority of the first monster. He “makes the earth and those who dwell in it worship the first monster, whose fatal wound was healed.” Apparently there’s some kind of false resurrection, which is how he gains power. And then “he performs great signs,” verse 13, “making fire come down out of heaven in the presence of men.”
Verse 14, “He deceives those who dwell on the earth”—again, this is Satan—“which is given to him to perform in the presence of the beast, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who had the wound of the sword and has come to life.” So once he has this false resurrection, he then establishes himself as the world ruler; and the false prophet points the world to him.
Go down to verse 16. We don’t have time to cover all the details. “He causes all, the small and the great, the rich and the poor, free men and slaves, to be given a mark on their right hand or on their forehead, and he provides that no one will be able to buy or to sell, except the one who has the mark, either the name of the monster or the number of his name,” which “is 666.”
So we’re headed toward a time when there’s a global satanic kingdom. It consolidates all kingdoms of the world. It is under the final monster Antichrist, designed by the devil himself, and the entire world follows him, the entire world. Along with this political leader there is a spiritual leader; this is the false prophet. He is the one who lures, seduces the world religiously to worship the Antichrist. So he becomes god; he is Satan’s puppet.

Thank you so much for your time. I know how valuable it is. I also appreciate the fine family that you have and your commitment as a father and a husband. I also respect you for putting your faith in Christ for your eternal life. I am pleading to you on the basis of the Bible to please review your religious views concerning abortion. It was the Bible that caused the abolition movement of the 1800’s and it also was the basis for Martin Luther King’s movement for civil rights and it also is the basis for recognizing the unborn children. I wanted to encourage you to investigate the work of Dr. Bernard Nathanson who like you used to be pro-abortion. I also want you to watch the You Tube series WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE HUMAN RACE? by Francis Schaeffer and Dr. C. Everett Koop. Also it makes me wonder what our the moral climate Of our nation is when we concentrate more on potential mistakes of the police and we let criminals back on the street so fast! Our national was founded of LEX REX and not REX LEX!
Sincerely,
Everette Hatcher III, 13900 Cottontail Lane, Alexander, AR 72002, ph 501-920-5733,
