He was rebuffed by Presley with the words, "why do I need God? I'm a man who owns islands." God bless Rex Humbard. He was a pioneer. The old guard is slowly fading into a grey light that leads into the Kingdom. D. James Kennedy. Humbard. Falwell. Others will join due to age. Agree with them or not, they made their mark. How much longer for Billy Graham, Oral Roberts and others? Only time and the Lord know for sure. What is also not known about Humbard is that he once flew to Memphis to witness to Elvis Presley.
