February 20, 1887, Christ took
me in; and today I stand be-
hind the sacred pulpit and can
say truthfully:
Therefore if any man be in
Christ, he is new creature: old
things are passed away; behold,
all things are become new.
III Corinthians SID
There is no good in me; all
the goodness is in Jesus-Je-
sus! Wonderful Jesus! After I
was converted, I went out and
gave my testimony the best
way I knew how, for I had
no education behind me. And
then, after I gave my testi-
mony, my heart was grieved
when I heard Christian peo-
pie, instead of praying for me,
talking behind my back and
saying, ''He is not going to
last; it will not be another year
until he will go back to the
UNDERWORLD" Oh, Christian
friends, don't talk like that;
pray for the babe in Christ for

"What brings you home so ear
ly?" l replied, 81 have quit my
Job" That was the first time
/ heard my wife say, praise
the Lord!" said, what? Are
you praising the Lord that |
have no work." She replied,
George, l would have told
you to quit three months ago,
but I knew you would not lis
ten to me; and every day as
you walked out of this house,
God knows I prayed, % God,
some day take George out OF
that gambling business! and
God has answered prayer!''
Yes; He has answered prayer
in my life, and He is real!
Have you ever won soul
for Christ? Do you know what
it is to put your arm around a
soul and tell him about Jesus?
It is wonderful to be a soul
winner for the Lord Jesus
Christ! I am not building
castles in this world any more.
I do not belong to this world.
My home is in Heaven. I am
building my castles in Heaven.
I want to meet my Lord and
have Him put His arms around
me, and hear Him say in my
ear, "Well done, good and
faithful servant!" What could
be more wonderful than to
hear Him say, "Well done!"
Let us examine ourselves! Let
us be up and doing things for
the Lord!
Now there was: I could not
find work, because, with po-
lice record, nobody would give
me a job. If you were a bust
ness man in Chicago, and 1
walked into your place and
asked for a job, and told you
that I had been converted
three months ago, you would
begin to look at me in half a
dozen different ways, and you
would not know whether to
give me a job or not;-but the
day the Lord Jesus Christ took
me in, He did not put me up
before a jury of twelve men
and judge, and then order
me off to prison. That day,

my Savior. Do you know, that
was the first time [ had ever
seen the inside of a Bible!
Many times I realized I was in
danger of being killed, but
nevertheless I thought that if
I died in the underworld, or a
natural death, that | would just
put on a pair of wings and a.
way 1 would go: that my faith
would get me to heaven. But
now I learned that the blood of
Jesus Christ was shed for me,
a sinner; and that His precious
blood cleanses from all sin;
and on my knees I asked God
to accept me as His child.
I went home and told my
wife what had happened; and
she said with tears in her eyes,
George, if you have given
your heart to Jesus, then I will
have a different husband and
our daughter will have a diff
ferent father; and I will pray
for you now more than I ever
have before"
Then I went back to my
work. I was dealing cards for
a syndicate gambling house in
Chicago; and I continued on
for nearly three months. My
wife longed for me to quit this
business but she did not want
to tell me. One day I got ready
and went to work. had thou
sands of dollars piled in front
of me, and a pack of cards lin
ed up all ready to go. Then
God spoke to me! took that
deck of cards and threw them
over the table, money and all!
| said to the man who was rum
ming the syndicate, II am leav-
ing here!" (there was no use
telling them I had become a
Christian for they would not
understand). I walked over
and took my hat off the rack.
The customers thought I had
gone crazy, as did also the
proprietor of the place. God
had spoken to me and I could
not continue there.
[ came home that afternoon
and told my wife. She looked
at me as I entered and said,

ter than to argue with me when
I was in that condition. All she
did was to point her finger. AS
I staggered in, I went to the
girls room. My wife told me
afterwards that as soon as she
closed the door, she got on her
knees. God sobered me up in
a few minutes. AS I walked
into that room, God answered
prayer and sobered me. There
I found my daughter alongside
her little bed on her knees,
praying. The prayer was, "Je-
sus, save my Daddy; make my
Daddy a good Daddy; I love
my Daddy" I heard that pray
er. I stood for a second in 81
lence and the gun dropped out
of my hand. Then, I said,
Shirley, get up off your knees
and quit that praying" She
was rather frightened because
she did not know what was 60
ing to happen to her. I said to
her, SHIRLEY, why are you
praying for me when forbade
you to pray in this homer" She
said, DADDY, let me put my
arms around YOU" I picked
her up and she put her arms
around me; and as she closed
her arms around me and put
her little cheek against my old
drunken face, she said, "The
reason [ was praying for you
is because Jesus loves you, and
I love you" I wept and said,
"My daughter still loves me
and her Jesus still loves mel"
and then I said, keep on
praying; Daddy is not going to
stop you any more"
That is why I am here this
morning, because God answer
ed prayer. He is still answer
ing prayer in my home. Won
derful Jesus! Is he wonderful
in your life, this morning?
One day I told my wife I
was going to take her to
Church. Sunday morning came.
That was February 20, 1887.
AS [ walked into that Church
on the southwest side of Chi
cago, a couple of men shook
hands with me. I want to let
you know that Christian hand
shake that Sunday morning
meant a lot in my life. I list
ened as the Evangelist brought
the message, for God had been
dealing with me. AS I listen
ed, [ yielded my life to the
Lord Jesus Christ. When we
came home and sat around the
dinner table, I said, 81 don't
mind going to Church, but quit
telling the preacher all about
me" My wife said, "Why, I
don't know the man; I never
met him before in my life!"
Well, God knew all about me,
the preacher did not have to
know about me. This Bible
knows all about me as a sinner.
and knows all about you. You
may fool men, but you cannot
fool God. That afternoon they
had a special meeting in that
Church and [ went by myself.
