Won From Mohammedanism

By P. TUNHEIM

It has often perplexed us to know how to get the glorious light before the Mohammedans, blinded as they are. But we have had some evidences that the Lord is able to change their hearts. One Javanese Mohammedan woman was baptized some time ago, and she is as devoted a Christian as I have ever seen. Her earnest prayers are touching. She has been teaching her mother, who now has also accepted the precious truth.
Also a Mohammedan baboe (servant) has recently been baptized. Though very poor, she brings a tithe of her earnings regularly for the Lord's work.

A Chinese family who have just come out of heathenism are people of prayer. They often go out to the woods to seek the Lord alone for strength to overcome all their evil habits and to be fitted for the glorious kingdom soon to appear.
The truth works reformation in the habits of those who accept the light. It is a great wonder to me as I see changes in some who were heathen gamblers, with mouths black and filthy with tobacco and betel-nut, which they constantly chew. A few months pass, and the desire for gambling is gone, the appetite for opium is lost, their mouths are clean, and many evil habits have been overcome. It is nothing but the mighty power of the gospel, the message of preparation for the soon coming of our blessed Saviour, that does this good work.
