MOHAMMEDANISM NOT INVULNERABLE.
WRITING for the Intercollegian, Dr. S. M. Zwemer, of Bahrein, Arabia, says: The Spirit of God moves upon the waters, altho darkness still covers the deep. Educated Moslems in India are trying to whitewash their prophet and his book by a species of higher criticism. Two learned Mohammedans there prepared a commentary on the Bible from a Moslem standpoint. At Lahore, they are printing parodies of Christian songs for spiritual food. The increase of Bible circulation in all Moslem lands is astonishing. The Word of God has been translated into nearly every Moslem tongue, so that, while the Arabic Koran is a sealed book to millions, the Bible speaks the language of the home and the market. The press of India and Egypt testify that Islam is on the defense even now. The Moslem apologist has abandoned positions, within the last decade, which were once thought impregnable. There is thirst for spiritual truth—witness the growth of the Babi-movement and the New Islam in India. Moslems are beginning to see that in religion, as in mathematics, there is only one straight line between two points; all other lines are crooked. Jesus Christ is the only way of salvation between a holy God and a helpless sinner. If you believe that, come and help13conquer the Mohammedan world for Christ. There are deserters coming in every day from the enemy's camp, and we are looking forward to their unconditional surrender, if reinforcements do not fail us.
