A GERMAN missionary magazine relates the following incident showing the power of the Bible: In the Shansi province of China a copy of the Gospel of Mark fell into the hands of a learned man and a priest. The one read the strange book aloud to the other. There was a great deal in it which neither the reader nor hearer understood. But they were so impressed that they came to the conviction that the book must come from heaven, and they paid divine honors to it for many years. Later on they obtained a copy of the New Testament, and began to worship Jesus and the apostles. When at last a Chinese evangelist came to their country, these two men were the first who joined themselves to him. They were instructed, and baptized, and began to gather two little churches around them. One of them has led about fifty persons to Christ.
