    If only the mother is a believer, the likelihood that the children will also become active believers is reduced to fifteen percent. If the father is an active believer, there is about a seventy-five percent likelihood the children will become active believers. The father lifted his son up until he held him above his head. When he took him down, the boy was dead.

    * One startling bit of research conducted by the Christian

    Business Men's Committee found the following: When the


    father is an active believer, there is about a seventy-five
    percent likelihood that the children will also become ac-
    tive believers. But if only the mother is a believer, this
    likelihood is dramatically reduced to fifteen percent.

    * J. Wilbur Chapman, perhaps the finest evangelist the Presbyterian


    church has known, once told in a message that he had just heard of a
    father who came into the bedroom where his young son lay dying. The
    boy had been ill for so long that his body was badly wasted. It was
    painful for him even to lie on the bed. As the father entered, the boy
    said, "Daddy, lift me up for a moment." The father put his hands under
    the emaciated body and raised his son just a little off the bed. "Lift me
    higher," he said, "Daddy, lift me higher." The father lifted him up until
    he held him above his head. When he took him down, the boy was
    dead. It would seem as if that father had actually lifted his son into the
    very arms of Christ. When Dr. Chapman concluded the service, a man
    came up to him with tears in his eyes and said, "Dr. Chapman, it hap-
    pened just as you said. I went into his room. My minister was with me,
    I lifted him up, and his weak voice came back to me in whispers saying,
    "Higher, Daddy, higher." When I took him down, he had gone. But, sir,
    I had lifted him into the arms of Christ long before, for when he was a
    very small boy I taught him of a Savior's love, and told him what it
    means to be a Christian."
