The Bible

I had lunch with some missionary friends Sunday. They are not missionaries to China but they recently were able to visit there. They told me they were in Beijing,China and they were privileged to go to the home of a fellow believer in Christ. He asked if they'd like to see his Bible. He kept it in a baggie, it was in bad condition with loose pages, the binding was broken, the pages were brittle and breaking. The man told my friends that he was a 4th generation Christian. His mother had given him the Bible, it was his grandma's Bible, and her mother's Bible before that. His great grandmother had gotten the Bible from the man who had shared the gospel with her, Hudson Taylor. How awesome is that? Hudson Taylor is my hero. Mr Taylor, your legacy is still making a difference today, it is worth it all!
