The Gospel may have had A hard time to conquer us, we may have fought it back, but we were vanquished. You say conversion is only an imaginary thing. We know better. We are witnesses. There never was so great a change in our heart and life on any other subject as on this. People laughed at the misionsries in Madagascar because they preached ten years without one convert; but there are 33,(XJO convern in Madagascar to- day. People laughed at Dr. Judson, the Bap- tist missionary, because he kept on preaching in Burmsh ve years without a single con- vert; but there are %.000 Baptists in Burmah today. People laughed at Dr. Morrison, in China, for preaching there seven years with- out a single conversion; but there a.re 15,000 Christians in China today. People laughed at the missionaries for oreaching at Tahiti for fifteen years without a single conversion, and at the misionaries for preaching in Beu~ gal seventeen years without a single conver- sion; yet in all those lands there are multi- : tudes of Christians today. n..e win: an an far On nd nvialnnma nf tlm uwayl will seem ulomcu.
