It’s A Long Time In October, 1894, the foundations of the American Board of Mis sions to the Jews, Inc., were laid, under God’s guidance, by Leopold Cohn, who had been converted from Rabbinical Judaism, and had given himself to the Lord in aban doned obedience to His leading. Thirty-eight years is a long time, more than a generation; and so far as we know, this is the only Jewish Mission in America that has been under the same leadership for all of these thirty-eight years, without a break. Without blare of trumpets, this work has gone about the King’s business, and has tried faithfully to bear witness to the truth; first, to the Jew, with a message o f salvation through the shed blood of the Lamb o f God. And second, to the Church, with an earnest plea that the Jew shall be restored to the place which God laid out for him in His divinely appointed missionary program. Both of these testimonies the Lord has honored, and it, has been our delight to know that we were doing His will. We say all this, not boastfully, but, in humble gratitude to the Lord\ Who ha;* put us here and Who has ' cared for us through all these years. There comes a time when it is good to say, “Hitherto hath the Lord helped us!” It is good also for the Christian steward to stop and think of these things when he is consider ing a place for the investment of the Lord’s funds; for we are living in a day o f shifting sands, much bombast, the uncertain sound of trumpets, all o f which lead to con fusion and instability. In such an hour it is best to tie to God, and to “ strengthen the things which remain.” Perhaps we are nearer the age-end than most o f us think.
