"That only indicates your wisdom," said Mr. World insinuatingly. "Since
you desire more congenial Christian fellowship, why not give your
attention to the church toward which I lean?"
"An agreeable suggestion," she said. "Where can I get the desired
information?"
He answered the question by taking her to the home of the minister,
and there introducing the subject.
She was very favorably impressed by the courteous reception accorded
her by so great and dignified a person.
"You come seeking knowledge of the church. I assure you, my young
friend, that I will gladly answer any questions. May I take the
privilege of asking you whether you have ever belonged to any church?"
She flushed with shame. "I will be true and tell you all. I had a great
experience some years ago, when I was seeking Christ. In answer to my
earnest petitions, I saw the most welcome beams of light that ever
touched my poor soul. I knew I was converted to Christ and continued
in his service ever since, although somewhat differently since I came
into fellowship with Mr. World. I joined the church in which I was
converted and still hold my membership there.
