Many will rejoice, I am sure, and praise God for this testimony to that blessed One, the “altogether lovely.” My missionary friend, laboring alone in India, writes of a Brahmin: ―
“rather a good family, fallen on evil days. The old man came and told me that he felt he had not long to live, would I help him to get through the short time he had left. It was a great proof of confidence, to say even so much.... Shortly after he was taken ill. When they are dying they are lifted on the ground as they must die on ‘Mother earth.’ Well, he was lying like that, with his head lifted on his son’s knee. Suddenly he raised his head, clasped his hands, and bowing in adoration said: ‘Thou Lord Jesus, Thou art the One.’ Nothing more is known, as he did not speak again. I am hoping against hope that he may be among the ‘saved ones.’
Can we doubt it?
