Medicine for the Face

Listen from:
One day a Tibetan came to the mission station and asked for medicine for his face. The missionary looked at him, but could not find any trace of sickness on his face. He said to the man: “You are all right, why do you want medicine for your face?”
“I want to have my face as white as yours,” said the dirty Tibetan.
The missionary then understood and gave him a piece of soap, explaining the use of it. The man had never seen such a thing. The missionary said: “It will help to make your face much lighter, although not as white as mine.”
Then the servant of God went on and told the heathen Tibetan that he needed something to make his black heart white, and spoke about the blood of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, which cleanses us from all sin.
“Come now, and let us reason tether, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.” Isaiah 1:1818Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. (Isaiah 1:18).
