Higher Critics and the Jews
Many highly educated Christian leaders have nobly put forth
their efforts in showing up the folly of the Higher Critics, and
the hieroglyphics on the tablets and monuments of the East
have been some of their chief proofs. But they have all missed
using against them, one of the most powerful explosives
known, and that is, the Jewish nation. The critics can chew the
cud on the dead leaves of Isaiah or Jonah, but let them try and
chew the living and everlasting nation, the Jews, and they are
likely to break all their teeth on them. Let every Higher Critic
bump his head against this highest monument the world has
ever had and so lose his brain and be forgotten forever.
The history of the Jews was not, like that of other nations,
written after it had occurred, but thousands of years in advance.Let the Higher Critics explain why that history, which was
once prophecy, is being literally carried out now as well as
a thousand years ago. The Church of the Lord Jesus Christ
and the Jews are the two mighty monuments witnessing for
the truth of the Lord and His Anointed beyond any human
refutation.

He utilized every opportunity for talking in public about these
“isms.” Some time ago he thought he would visit the mission
as he had heard people talk so much about it. After attending
once he felt a desire to return and so kept on coming to our
meetings until he professed belief in the Lord Jesus Christ. He
is zealous and gives ardent testimonies at our Monday evening
meetings.

INCIDENTS IN THE WORK
Beside a Sick Bed
BY LEOPOLD COHN
At the close of a meeting in Brownsville, one Saturday
morning, a number of Jews and Jewesses came to shake hands
with me, and begged me to call upon a sick Jewess right away.
They said: “She is in a critical condition, and has expressed,
several times, a great wish to see you.” When I reached the
poor patient, I found her in a very miserable condition, a baby
lying beside her and her husband holding another one in his
arms. Both man and sick wife began to cry when they saw me
come in, and the wife, for joy over my visit and in courteous
welcome, tried to sit up in bed, but she had not the strength, and
fell backward upon the pillows.
Now there were many Jews and Jewesses in the room, and
the Holy Spirit constrained me to offer prayer in the presence
to pray, and who He was, and that I had the experience that
God answers prayer in the blessed name of the Lord Jesus
Christ. While praying, the Spirit of God took hold of these
Jews present, and troubled their hearts so much that they asked
me what they should do in order to obtain a good knowledge
about the Messiah in whose name I prayed. I marveled at the
movement of the power of the Holy Spirit upon the hearts
of these men, and said in my heart, “How wonderful are thy
works, O Lord!”
