day of reckoning, the hordes of Satanic hate will be driven into the
rat holes from where they came; and in that day literally millions
of pitifully helpless Jews, men, women, and children, many of
them perhaps stark mad with the insanity of what they have been
through, these will need such an outpouring of Christ ministry and
binding of wounds, that the need can hardly be measured in dollars
and cents. For that day you can help us to store up the reserves we
will be needing. For the sake of crystalizing the matter, let us call a
new fund “Post-War Refugee Relief.”
No sooner shall the first trumpet of peace reach our ears than we
hope in God’s good mercy to hasten across the water, taking even
a Clipper a small plane from the era if need be; we want to be
among the first to go to those poor bedeviled creatures who will
be living in conditions almost unthinkable, and say to them, “Here
is money that true Christians from America have allowed us to
bring to you, because they love the Lord Jesus Christ and want to
help you in your hour of need.”
The Lord only knows what such a testimony will mean in that
staggering hour of world history. The Lord only knows whether such
a move at that time might not bring with it a harvest of thousands
of Jewish souls won to Him, Jewish souls that may go like heralds
of fire, through all parts of Europe preaching the saving gospel
which found them in the depth of their misery and starvation.
But to do all this requires the careful husbanding of our resources
now, not to wait until the last desperate moment and then appeal
frantically for funds—such a time may indeed be too late. But if
we look ahead now, we will show ourselves far-sighted statesmen
of the kingdom of God. Already many secular relief societies,
both in Europe and America, are beginning to formulate plans for
postwar relief activities in the most disastrously wrecked parts of
Europe. Shall we as the Lord’s children be one whit behind them
in future planning? Shall it be true of us that the children of this
generation are wiser in their day than the children of light?
