in Christ, and ask for baptism. Having been examined and found worthy, they were baptized. This man had a wife and children whom he loved, but they were taken from him, as well as his living; and he had been now for two years deprived of wife and children, and destitute of all things, for Christ's sake. Yet how rich in the promised blessing of God was that humble and unknown Hindu! How few in Christian America make such sacrifices for Christ! How many from its happy and heaven-blessed shores will go away into outer darkness, as despisers of the mercy of God, when the poor Hindu of Krishna-gherry and his brethren ascend to rejoice and praise forever before the throne of God.
Reader! have you confessed Christ before men? “Whosoever shall confess me before men," he has said, “him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven; but whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven." Be persuaded to love and confess him who loved and died for you.
