Tell Me Simply
T. H. Huxley, a well-known agnostic, was with a group of men at a weekend house party. On Sunday morning, while most of them were preparing to go to church, he approached a man known for his Christian character and said, “Suppose you stay at home and tell my why you are a Christian.” The man, knowing he couldnt match wits with Huxley, hesitated. But the agnostic said gently, “I dont want to argue with you. I just want you to tell me simply what this Christ means to you.” The man did, and when he finished, there were tears in Huxleys eyes as he said, “I would give my right hand if only I could believe that!”
