Pentecost and World Missions
“THE Holy Spirit always refuses to let Christians enjoy their privileges alone. Wherever Pentecost dawns—in the individual, in the family, in the church—there missions burst forth like a spring.” TWENTY people die every minute in India. As the second-hand moves around, every third second some one dies who never learned to love our Lord. Every year more than eight millions die not knowing that “God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” THE All Nations Missionary Union, of London, has discovered a new form of evangelistic work for Japan. It collects Christmas cards from its friends in England, sends them to Japan, has a Japanese text or hymn inserted, and then distributes the pretty cards to the wounded soldiers. It has just sent out two enormous packing-cases full of Christmas cards for this service.
