Pastor Hsi - Confucion, Scholar & Christian by Mrs Howard Taylor with Foreword by D M Lloyd Jones.
A proud Confucian scholar with a deep distrust of all foreigners (including Christian missionaries) and hopelessly addicted to opium is confronted by the living Christ. He is instantly delivered, as well as completely and permanently transformed. Filled with the power and love of God, he is compelled to bring the message of deliverance to his fellow countrymen. Through prayer and fasting he begins to see miracles happen. People are healed and demons are cast out. He sets up a refuge for recovering opium addicts and God gives him a recipe for a special medicine that helps in the cure.
