Here is an interesting story that shows the fruit of Sunday School work. In the American Civil War, the Honorable George Henry Stuart, passing through the camp, was challenged by the sentry, because he gave the wrong password. The sentry said: “Mr Stuart, it is my duty to shoot you dead, but I know you; go to the General and get the right word.” Mr Stuart did so, came again, gave the word, and was allowed to pass. As he was leaving he turned to the soldier and said, “You were very properly anxious about my having the right password; may I ask, have you the right password for eternity? The soldier answered: “Yes I have, sir.” “What is it,” Mr. Stuart asked? “1 John 1:7, ‘The blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanseth us from all sin.’ You gave it to me in Sunday School twenty years ago.” Many of our readers have no doubt had godly Sunday School teachers. Have they seen the fruit of the many hours they spent with you in class, and the hours they spent in prayer for you in private?
