Influence of Bible Circulation
THE Rev. F. G. Penzotti, in a recent article in one of the missionary magazines, makes the following statement regarding the circulation of the Bible: “After thirty-six years of experience in Latin America, I find that the most practical way to begin missionary work in a new place is to send our men with the Bible in their hands to prepare the way. The colporteur carries the divine lamp in his hand from town to town and from house to house, and can enter the homes where the voice of the pastor or missionary has never been heard. It frequently awakens interest, and there are genuine conversions by means of the colporteur. The work is difficult, but has the approval and blessing of the Lord.”
