              In Togo, Africa, a stone that the heathen worshipped stood in the forest since ancient times. They said there was a god in the stone who would kill anyone who touched it. To show that idols have no power, the Christian teacher one day fearlessly went with the 'church into the woods; the stone was loosened from the ground, carried triumphantly through the village, the Christians singing songs to the praise of their God, and set up on the great street, where it now becomes the testimony of true faith for many. The words of the Elijah story were carved on the stone: Jehowa enye Mawu, which means: the Lord is God.
