Destroying an Idol
Isaiah 2:18
And the idols he shall utterly abolish.


Two young men owned and supported a Hindu temple in a village named Rammakal Cooke. Both, becoming Christians, determined after much prayer to destroy the idol which had previously been worshipped in the temple. When they went to carry out their intention, a vast concourse assembled to hinder them. One of them brought out the idol, and lifting it up, asked if anyone would maintain its cause. The bold words awed the crowd, and then was heard the voice of a woman, saying, "Victory, victory to Jesus Christ." Others took up the cry. The idol was broken, the temple destroyed.

(J. Vaughan.)
