How to Win Souls For Christ.

Andrew teaches Christians still the
first lesson in soul-winning: Go for
your own brother. That Is. try to bring
to Christ those whom you love, those
nearest to you. 1t makes no difference
whether the nearness is of blood or
sympathy. You will succeed where
you love.
Christianity is TO win the world by
this process alone-neighbor influence
ing neighbor, friend influencing friend.
1t is like leaven. One part of yeast
will permeate two thousand parts of
dough, but only by changing the parts
next TO IL, and so working its way
through the mass.

Christian as being like, "such q little
