While I was standing in the market today I was invited into a shop of an Arab; a few Arabs gathered round me and we had a pleasant talk on the Gospel. We spoke on the personality of God his Son and the H.G. And I told them that the angel spoken of in the book of Revelation (XIV 6) had come to the earth with the Gospel and I told them there was only one Gospel. They asked me if they would be allowed in our meeting. I told them to come Sun. at 2 p.m.

Took a lesson in Arabic today. I have discontinued any teaching English for German.
