WITH CHINA’S CHRISTIAN ARMY (Continued from page 771)
how patiently they stood, and how easy it was to speak to them! God’s Spirit was moving upon the hearts of the men in answer to the prayers of many. When the invitation to accept Christ was given, so many hands were upraised that I thought surely there had been a mistake. I asked that the invitation be repeated and made clear. This was done, and again to my joy and delight literally hundreds of hands were upraised' from all parts of the great audience. It Was a wonderful scene, and was followed by a soul-stirring sound as they repeated in con cert after Chaplain Chang their declaration of faith in Christ. Later Gen. Chang, the commander of the brigade, who is a fiery evangelist as well as a brave soldier, gave the men an earnest exhortation, and prayed fervently for those who had just made the great decision. After the memorable service we went to Gen. Chang’s headquarters. That afternoon he told us the story of his conversion; and of how in a miraculous manner, paralleling the Old Testament miracles, the Lord had given glorious victory to their troops in the recent civil war in China— but that is another story. Will not all who read these lines pray fervently day by day for Gen. Feng and his army; for gracious revival in China; and for our party as we continue to preach Christ and distribute the Word in Peking, and wherever the Lord may lead? Neat prayer cards have been issued and will be sent post free by the Sunday School Times Company, 1031 Walnut St., Philadelphia. They are for the use ¡of yourself and others in your church or community who may wish to become prayer-helpers of revival in China; of Gen. Feng and hisi army; and of our party and work. By your prayers you will have a vital share in the vic tories achieved. Did not David make it a law that those who stayed by the stuff should share equally in the spoil with those who engaged in the battle? NOTICE TO SUBSCRIBERS We receive many letters from our people which read something like this: “ I do not remember the date of expiration of The King’s Business, but PLEASE DO NOT DISCONTINUE IT as I DO NOT WANT TO MISS A SINGLE COPY! Let me know when my subscription runs out, and I will remit at once.” We are sure that this is true of many more mem bers of “ Our Family”, and in order to avoid any annoyance or inconvenience to them, we will not cut the magazine off abruptly, but afford them an opportunity for renewal. Will our subscribers please examine carefully the label on the outside of the magazine, note the date of expiration, and then make such a memo randum as will be sufficient to insure sending the renewal at the proper time. Remittance may be made either in cash or by check, postoffice or ex press money order. As you know, the subscription price of The King’s Business does not pay the expense of pub lication, but we are seeking to be a help in the battle for the Bible, and covet your hearty fellow ship and prayers.
