Reading

When William Wilberforce and Isaac Milner were starting on a journey to Scotland, it was suggested that they take with them and read together Doddridge’s “Rise and Progress of Religion in the Soul.” The reading of this book led Wilberforce to Christ, and through this came freedom to the slaves of the British Empire. A glance into Dr. Watts’ hymn-book for children saved Sir Walter Scott from suicide. Captain Cook’s “Voyages” made William Carey a foreign missionary and gave the Bible in their own tongues to over two hundred millions of human race. Carey’s published letters sent Henry Martyn to India and Persia. Buchanan’s “Star in the East” sent Adoniram Judson from New England to Burma and gave to the American Missionary Society the greatest missionary in its history. It was the reading of Dr. Dick’s “Philosophy of the Future State” which sent David Livingstone as the evangel of Christ into the dark Continent. “How forcible are right words” (Job 6:25)
