The story is told of an atheist in London who sought to make sport of a man with little education who was converted only a few years before.
"Do you know anything about Jesus Christ?" he asked.
"Yes, by the grace of God, I do," was the answer.
"When was He born?"
The man gave an incorrect answer.
"How old was He when He died?"
Again the answer was incorrect. Other questions were asked with the same
result until the atheist said with a sneer, "See, you do not know so much about Jesus as you thought, do you?"
"I know all too little," was the Christian's modest answer, "but I do know this: three years ago I was one of the worst drunkards in the east end of London. Three years ago my wife was a brokenhearted woman, and my children were as afraid of me as if I had been a wild beast. Today I have one of the happiest homes in London, and when I come home at the close of the day, my wife and children are glad to see me. Jesus Christ has done this for me.
This I know."
