Obligation of Christians to Send Out Missionaries
Acts 13:2-13
As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said…


A Karen convert in Burmah who was taken to America, and was asked to address a meeting upon their obligation to send out missionaries. After a moment of thought he asked with a good deal of meaning, "Has not Christ told you do it?" "Oh, yes," was the reply, "but we wish you to remind them of their duty." "Oh, no," said the Karen; "if they will not mind Jesus Christ, they will not mind me!"
