“Throw that thing out the window!”
Most of the time, soldiers can entertain themselves very well by telling funny jokes. They laugh loudly, especially when on a train. A young recruit, however, sat in a corner and read his pocket Bible.
“Let’s play a joke on this religious kid and throw his Bible out the window.”
It took only a second or two, and the Bible lay on the ground between the rails.
A few days later, the young soldier received a package which contained his Bible! Enclosed was a very interesting letter. A rail worker found the Bible and, through reading it, heard the voice of God speaking to him. He was afraid because of his sins, but when reading the Holy Scriptures, he truly met the Savior of sinners.
Now the soldier understood why he had to be separated from his Bible for a few days. A new believer came to know Jesus as his Savior, and the devil had been defeated again.
