sins reach up to Heaven? What am I to do with them? For forty long years I have gone daily to the mosque, but never before, until this day, have I heard of salvation in Jesus Christ." And he wept aloud and cried out: "Won't you pray for me?" He eagerly received instruction and believed. His last and oft repeated words to his new-found Christian friends, as they rode away, were: "Won't you continue to pray for me?" The Lord Jesus Christ is speaking to His own among Moslems to-day, but many have never heard of Him. There are more than two hundred million Moslems in the world. "How can they hear without a preacher?" Hindiyea's story will also interest you. A Moslem woman lay dying in a coast town of old Syro-Ph[oe]nicia. She was the wife of an aged Katib--the scribe of the town and the teacher of the Koran. The woman knew that her end was near, but how could she die? Where was she going? Her husband had no word of comfort for her, he did not know. She was greatly troubled and deep waters rolled over her soul. Who could tell her? Was there no one to stretch out a helping hand? Suddenly she thought of a foreign lady, a missionary, who was at the time in her own town, and whose words had once strangely stirred her heart. Perhaps she would come to her?

Who will go to teach them how to die and how to live? There is a general belief among Christians that Moslems worship the One True God--the Almighty God; but this is a mistake, they do not worship Him at all! They worship the God who has Mohammed for his prophet and _who is he_? Certainly not the God and Father of the Lord Jesus Christ. The call that goes up from thousands of minarets all over the Moslem world six times a day--"There is no God but God, and Mohammed is his prophet,"--is in direct conflict with the Word of Truth, that we have access to our God through His Son, Jesus Christ, for they deny the Son,--"and this is the record, that Go
