King's Business - 1920-12

THE K I N G ’ S BUS I NESS or not?” She gasped and said, “Why, just what do you mean? I have always loved God and prayed ever Since I was a child. I never joined the church, but I love to read the Bible, and I have been good.” In her earnestness the tears came as she said, “I s , there anything else I should have done? Can one really be sure of these things till they die?” Very gently, but plainly, the plan of salvation was made clear to her. Finally she said, “Well, right now, I do believe and receive Him as my Saviour and will confess Him. Now God is my Father; isn’t He?” As she rested back on her pillow real peace and joy were written on her face, and she pressed the worker’s, hand, saying, “How I thank you. Please come soon again, and tell me some more.” n n SHOP WORK M. H. REYNOLDS, SUPT.

An Opportunity Grasped A worker arose one morning earnest­ ly asking the Lord that she might lead a soul to Him that day. About noon a man passed the house that she wished to. see on some business matter. As she ran out to him, she sent up a hurried prayer, that he might be saved during the conversation.

She said, “Why put it off any longer, when you know it’s the only thing to do?” After waiting a few moments, he said, “I will accept Him now.” A pocket Testament was given him, and meeting him a few days afterward he said he had read it .nearly through, and signed it both in the front and in the back, and that now he wished he might do some­ thing for his Master. Result of a Glass In a personal talk with a young woman whom it was thought we would not be able to hold in a Bible class, she said, “I have been a member of the church for years and thought I was all right, but I am sure I never was saved. I never can cease to be grateful for this little class, for in it I have seen my need and taken Jesus as my Saviour, and I am so happy and life seems so different. I am really a new woman.” A Bereaved One Saved A worker was asked to call on a lady whose husband had recently died, and comfort her, if possible. She feund a very delicate, refined lady, who for years had been an invalid. She, at once, be­ gan to ask questions about the dead and the hereafter.

God has so graciously blessed and owned their ministry, we were con­ strained reluctantly to turn temporarily from our activities at Biola Hall to take up the fall work among the shops, car barns and fire engine houses, where these splendid young m§n in all their love for Christ and men will continue their labors for the coming year, if the Lord tarry. The students were very happy in anticipation of getting back in­ to harness, keenly alive to the oppor­ tunities and went forth like strong men to the battle. This personal contact with men is a great factor in their training, for here we put into action the great truths gained in the lecture room; and carry in song, testimony, tracts,
