He considered their pitiable and perilous condition; he thought on the value of their immortal souls; he remembered the last solemn injunction of his Lord, "Go teach all nations,"—an injunction never revoked, and commensurate with that most encouraging promise, "Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world."

Book Synopsis Life of Henry Martyn by : Mrs. Sarah J. Rhea
Download or read book Life of Henry Martyn written by Mrs. Sarah J. Rhea. This book was released on 2015-07-19. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life of Henry Martyn: Missionary to India and Persia, 1781 to 1812 I hold in my hand an album adorned with pictures of missionaries, my brethren and sisters, the ambassadors of the King. On one of the first pages is "the tomb of Henry Martyn," given me by Dr. Van Lennep, who had just visited the sacred spot and described it vividly.

They were alike I think in many things, these two Persian evangelists, and also in their deaths. When they passed out of the Tabriz gate, journeying homeward after a course of illness in the fated city, for each it was a quick ascent, a painful translation, to the heavenly city with abundant entrance and the Master's "well done" - in heaven; and on earth, a foreign grave taking possession for Christ, as the Nestorians reverently say, with "white stones still speaking out."
