erity of Italy, he did not promise his
men ease, and comfort, but rather the
opposite. He promised them suffering,
forced marches, hunger, deprivation.
And what happened? The mighty men
of Italy rallied round their general.
You know the result. Italy was won
for the cause of liberty of conscience.
And so, in the cause of Christ, I call
upon you men to meet me upon the
battlefield, in this great metropolitan
city of the world, and join me in the
fight for humanity and God! (Prolong
ed applause.)
Here follows a series of resolutions
which the men adopted:
Resolution 1. “That from this our
First Annual Men’s Banquet of Christ
church, we set out to do all in our
power to increase the attendance and
cooperation of men and boys upon
the regular services of our church.”
Resolution 2. “That in order to do
this, we here and now enter into a
solemn contract with ourselves:
(a) To make an honest effort to
Before leaving, the young man was
set apart for the evangelization of the
Gentiles, by a council composed of Dr.
Hudson Taylor, of the China Inland
Mission; Gratton Gynness, J. S. Bade
noch of the Mildmay Mission; John
Wilkinson, director of the Mildmay
Mission to the Jews who took part in
this ordination service.
Often has this young man been ask
ed why he did not give himself to the
work among his brethren, the Jews,
and the answer he gives is this: He
followed the example of the Apostle
Paul and nearly all the other apostles
who, after attempting to preach the

leading services of the church —Sun-
day morning and evening, worship and
sermon; Wednesday night, Bible
School and Service of Prayer.
(b) That we will also endeavor
each week by personal or written in
vitation to get some other man or
boy to attend these services.
(c) That we also endeavor to do
all in our power to make the atmos
phere of the church as informal and
home-like for men and boys as possi
ble.
(d) That we will endeavor to speak
with some strange man or boy at ev
ery service.
(e) That when it is opportune, we
will attend the other services of the
church, and undertake such work in
connection with them as we are able
to perform.
(f) That we will endeavor to give
more largely of our substance, week
by week, to the current expenses of
the church and to missions.”
Gospel to the Jews, were obliged to
turn aside to the Gentiles.
Reasons for Leaving the Jews.
The testimony of a converted Jew
to a Jew is often not accepted. They
consider him an apostate to their faith
and a traitor to their religion, while
the testimony of a converted Gentile
living a pure Christian life, is ac
cepted and appreciated by the Jew.
You cannot blame the Jews for not
accepting readily the testimony of a
converted Jew; when you consider the
awful persecution the Jews have suf
fered from the hands of many so
called Christians, especially of the
Catholics, and consider also the prac
tice of idolatry carried on in a good
many of the so-called Christian church
es. To a Jewish mind, Christianity
is idolatry and for an orthodox Jew
to leave the religion of the only one
and true God for that which he con
siders a religion of many gods, is an
awful thing and, therefore ,the testi
mony of a converted Jew is of greater
effect and better results among the
Gentiles tha namong those of his own
people. No proof need be cited, to
anyone reading the history of Chris
tianity and following the steps of ev
ery converted Jew who has given his
life to missionary work among the Gen
tiles, for they will readily see how the
testimony and life of such persons
count for far more than if they had
worked among their own people. This
young man worked for three years
among the Jews, giving his testimony
with a loving, faithful spirit, but they
received him not, and the mark of
their disapproval and refusal can still
be seen upon his body.
Learning a New Tongue.
Reaching Portugal, this boy gave
himself at once to the study of the
Portuguese language. Os course, he
knew there was no royal road to
learning and, therefore, made up his
mind to memorize at least a hundred
words every day. At the end of the
month, he had about twenty-five hun
dred words at his disposal, and he
then commenced using what he had
laerned, in writing a little tract which
he intended to sell to the Portuguese
people. He wrote it in English, and,
by the aid of the dictionery, trans
lated it ipto Portuguese. By the time
he had finished this translation, he
perceived the many mistakes he had
made at the beginning and gave him-
self to the work of copying it, once
more, then it was submitted to a
friend who knew the Portuguese lan
guage perfectly. He corrected it, and
finally it was put into the hands of
the printer, and passed through the
hands of the young man several times
until it was fully corrected and print
ed. He then started out into the in
terior of the country with a number
of the tracts to be sold to the peo
ple. Unable to speak more than a
few words understandingly, he man
aged to place the tract, however, be
fore the eyes of the people, and wheth
er they wanted it or not they could
not get rid of him. They just had
to buy the tract. Sometimes, he
would find a priest who, as soon as
he spied the title “Saint Peter Was
Never a Pope,” would gesticulate and
insult and make other signs of dis
turbance which the young man did not
understand until the priest would
shake his fist in the young man’s eyes.
Thus he managed to dispose of the
three thousand copies. Afterwards, he
wrote another tract, entitled, “A Re
ligion of Rags, BomMsi and Flour,”
referring to the relics of the saints
and to the wafer which is worshiped
as the Holy Trinity itself. This, of
course, brought him into trouble with
the Jesuitical element and he was
soon given to understand that it was
better for him not to remain in that
country longer. He then decided to
go to Brazil, which he did in the month
of June, 1890.
In Brazil.
There in Brazil, he began his work
by selling Bibles, tracts, testaments
and the Gospels, visiting from home
to home, and meeting with splendid
success everywhere he went. He thus
was enabled to learn a great deal of
the habits and customs of the peo
ple, and so prepare himself for his
future work. He also began to pub
lish a little paper entitled “Biblios,”
which is the name given to the Chris
tians in Rio de Janeiro, because they
always carry their Pibles with them.
This little paper was very successful
and highly appreciated by the Chris
tians with whom he was then work
ing—a kind of Congregational church
with a Presbyterian government.
Learning Baptist Principles.
It was not long before he came into
conflict with the Baptist denomination
on account of some of the members
of his churches joining them, which
was not at all to his liking. The dear
cons and workers of his church ask
ed him to denounce the Baptists, and,
if possible, write an article that
would destroy the Baptists’ standpoint.
He answered that he “had never
studied the subject, as questions of
denominationalism were altogether out
of his line, but he would look into
it and study it carefully and then
write an article that would destroy
them completely.” About that time a
call came to him, asking that he look
after the pastoral work of the Pernam
buco church, which he accepted read
ily and removed to that place, but still
continued the editing of the paper. It
was there that he began the study
of the Baptist doctrines, reading the
Bible and everything touching upon
that point, and was forced to confess
that the more he studied, the more
interested he became.
About that time the Rev. Dr. Z. C.
Taylor was visiting the Baptist
churches, and, wishing to find out
something more about these things
from a Baptist standpoint, he invited
Dr. Taylor to spend his time with him
which invitation Dr. Taylor readily ac
cepted. For the two or three days
he was with him, this young Jew
with characteristic perseverance did
not let him rest, plying him with all
the questions that were upon his mind.
The conviction came to him that the
Baptist doctrines were right and he
