In speaking once of his religious life, Captain Mahan, of the United
States Navy, had this to say:
I happened one week-day in Lent into a church in Boston. The
preacher--I have never known his name--interested me throughout;
but one phrase only has remained: “Thou shalt call his name
Jesus, for He shall save His people”--here he lifted up his
hands--“not from hell, but from their sins.” Almost the first
words of the gospel! I had seen them for years, but at last I
perceived them. Scales seemed to fall from my eyes, and I began
to see Jesus and life as I had never seen them before.
