Why Didn't You Come Sooner?

In October, 1857, J. Hudson Taylor began to minister in Ningpo, China, and he led a Mr. Nyi to Christ.  The man was overjoyed and wanted to share his faith with others.  “How long have you had the good tidings in England?” Mr. Nyi asked Hudson Taylor one day. Taylor acknowledged that England had known the Gospel for many centuries. “My father died seeking the truth,” said Mr. Nyi.  “Why didn’t you come sooner?” Taylor had no answer to that penetrating question.

We must take the Gospel to others today rather than holding on to it until tomorrow!
