Excerpt from Early Conversion: Showing How Children and Young People Can Be Led to Jesus and Prepared for Church Membership

I AM sure that the Church of Jesus Christ is sadly neglecting the children. It is true that we have our Sun day schools and other organizations for the training of children in the knowledge of the Word and God, but there is not that definite work for their conversion that there Should be.

N 0 other form of Christian effort brings such imme diate, such large, and such lasting results as work for the conversion of children. It has many advantages over other forms of work. First of all, children are more easily led to Christ than adults. In the second place, they are more likely to stay converted than those apparently con verted at a later period of life. They also make better Christians, as they do not have so much to unlearn as those who have grown old in sin. They have more years of service before them. A man converted at sixty is a a soul saved plus ten years of service, a child saved at ten is a soul saved plus sixty years of service.
