Out of the Mouths of Babes

THE statement made in the spirit of prophecy that children would yet take up the message of the third angel and proclaim it with wonderful power, is having a striking fulfillment in New York City. A little eleven-year-old Jewish girl who has been converted to the truth through the efforts of one of our sisters, is going about among Jews, Protestants, and Catholics, telling them with earnest conviction of the soon coming of her Messiah a second time to bring judgment with him. She has already given the message to the scholars and teachers of the public school she attends, and has created quite an interest on the part of many to know more about these things. Many persons are asking her questions; they want to know who these Christians are that keep the Jewish Sabbath, about whom she talks so much.
The child has been able to grasp very quickly the truths in the Old and New Testaments concerning Christ; and all she talks about is Jesus and his soon coming and the Sabbath truth. She is a bright, pretty child; and when she is speaking about her faith, an animated, intelligent look shines out of her eyes that makes one forget she is only a child. When I saw her at the Washington Heights Lecture Hall Sunday evening, she was up in the very first row of seats, taking a prominent part in the song service.
The little girl's parents are bitterly opposed to Christianity, and are doing everything to discourage her. However, she is remaining firm in the love of the truth. Remember her in your prayers.
