THE K I N G ’ S- B U S I N E S S peace. This only our Saviour Jesus Christ, who is virgin-born, who was cru cified because of our sins and who arose again and is to come again w ith His physical body, can do. Christ must be th e only One to save th is country from the present condition of sin and unrest, darkness and confusion. But what I am going to w rite in th is le tte r is not mentioned yet. You all know th is country has been very good to catch and learn things from other countries. Great p art of letters which are being used now came from China long ago. Buddhism came from India; Confucianism came from China; alm ost all scientific learnings came from Europe ancj your country and C hristian ity is spreading now by the faith fu l effort of hundreds of m issionaries from your country. A fter all, my country, so far, has been a country of borrow ing and im itation. Here, w e' are in g reat dan ger. We have been used to learn from others w ithout exam ination and scrutiny. Good and bad come together. T rue Christianity and false one come to g eth er and are received both w ithout examination. I am only a college boy and have never been to your country so do not know much about th e spiritual condition of your country people, but people coming back from your country and papers say, it is in dangerous con dition. The faith , Christian faith, in your country is now marching a wrong way, I feel. (Please excuse me my boldness and impoliteness. I am w riting ju st what I feel and th ink .) The Christian faith of your people of the present time is not th a t of years ago. Of course th ere are tens of thousands of faith fu l and tru e to th e Lord like your In stitu te and Moody’s and others. I am w riting this because the Christianizing of th is little country depends so much on your m is sionaries,-and so, n atu rally I am anxious about it. If Christ was not born from Virgin

Mary; if He is not the Son of God, if He is not th e only necessary and suffi cient One who came down from God to be the Redeemer fo r us fallen men; if He did not rise again and if He will not come again in His physical body; then Christianity is nothing bu t a teaching of weak m orality and the Holy Bible be comes only a book of ethics of “ do and do-not.” Lord, give repentance to th e Modernists. They do not know what they are doing and saying. They are denying Thy Son! And yet they claim to be Thy children. Christ my Saviour only a man? Man is under no condemnation, needs no re pentance? God is too good to punish him? Man is little different from monkey? Christ has come already? He will not come? It is in a sp iritual sense? Lord, send repentance to them before too late, fo r they will all perish, go to hell and will be b u rn t in unquenchable fire! Send Thy Spirit abundantly to Dr. Torrey’s In stitu te, to Mr. Moody’s In stitu te; they are not those of human beings! They are Thine! F o r Thy glory send quick victory to these faith ful In stitu tion s and th e ir people! Though a little boy far away, I am pray ing here. Lord, listen and answer my prayers! I t is for Thy glory and for thy Son’s! “The fru its of th e modern m issionary teaching, destructive of Christian, faith as founded upon the Bible, are now de veloping so rapidly in certain fields th a t no fair-m inded person can fail to ob serve the trend of things.’! Thus the K ing’s Business of September says. And th is is sadly tru e here in th is country too, when th is young boy sees the Chris tian work of the present tim e by the missionaries though fo r whom he has so much thankfulness. Of course there are many, many faith fu l ones, some of whom I know. The fallen condition of man in sin, need of repentance and regeneration; faith in Jesus th e Son of God; hope for
