    web.archive.or...
    Over 130 years ago, in a small Liberian village in West Africa, Samuel Morris was born Prince Kaboo, the eldest son of a Kru tribal chieftain. While still a child, a neighboring clan defeated his people and demanded that Kaboo's father pay a hefty ransom for his son's return.
    The conquering chief subjected Kaboo to terrible treatment and cruel labor. During one of many intense whippings, Kaboo said he saw a bright light and heard a voice from heaven telling him to flee. Kaboo recalled that the rope binding him fell to the ground, after which he gathered his strength and ran into the jungle.
    Traveling at night and hiding in the hollow of trees by day, Kaboo navigated blindly through a jungle dominated by jungle law. Eventually he arrived at Monrovia, the one city of the thousands in Liberia that was civilized and under the rule of law. At a coffee plantation that provided work and shelter, a young boy invited him to church where Miss Knolls, a missionary and graduate of Taylor University (then known as Fort Wayne College), spoke on the conversion of the Apostle Paul. Kaboo immediately recognized the story as being similar to his escape. Shortly afterward, he accepted Christ as Savior and was baptized under the name of Samuel Morris in honor of the missionary's benefactor.
    Morris spent the next two years painting houses in Monrovia, the capital of Liberia. He became a zealous member of the Christian community and displayed a fervent desire to learn about the Holy Spirit. Missionaries encouraged him to travel to America and seek the instruction of Stephen Merritt, former secretary to Bishop William Taylor. With no money or means of transportation, Morris began his journey on foot.
    Sleeping on the beach at the Robertsport harbor, Morris waited several days before finding passage on a ship in exchange for work. The journey would prove a difficult one as Morris was often beaten and assigned to the most dangerous tasks. However, by the time the ship docked in New York in September of 1891, the captain and most of the crew had accepted Christ because of Morris' witness.
    As a pastor and sponsor of a rescue mission, Merrit warmly received Morris. He contacted Thaddeus Reade, then president of Taylor University, and requested to enroll Morris at the school. Due to Taylor's financial debt, Reade personally started a fund for Morris. The fruit of his effort would later be known as the Faith Fund.
    In December of 1891, Morris arrived on Taylor's campus (then in Fort Wayne, Ind.). When asked by Reade which room he wanted, Morris replied, If there is a room that nobody wants, give that to me. Morris' faith had such a profound impact on the Fort Wayne community that he was frequently invited to speak at local churches. At night, he could regularly be heard in his room praying, which he simply called, talking to my Father.
    Morris often asked others to read Scripture to him. When one student refused, saying he did not believe in the Bible anymore, Morris replied, My dear brother, your Father speaks to you, and you do not believe him? Your brother speaks, and you do not believe him? The sun shines and you do not believe it? God is your father, Christ your brother, the Holy Ghost your Sun.
    President Reade once said, Samuel Morris was a divinely sent messenger of God to Taylor University. He thought he was coming over here to prepare himself for his mission to his people, but his coming was to prepare Taylor University for her mission to the whole world. All who met him were impressed with his sublime, yet simple faith in God.
    On May 12, 1893, Samuel Morris died after contracting a severe cold. His death inspired his fellow students to serve as missionaries to Africa on his behalf, fulfilling his dream of one day returning to minister to his own people. Hundreds of spectators lined the streets of Fort Wayne as Samuel Morris' body was carried to Berry Street Methodist Church. The burial ceremony in Lindenwood cemetery, his last earthly resting place, was attended by a multitude such had never before accompanied there. Morris' untimely passing prevented him from participating at the laying of the cornerstone at Taylor's new Upland campus, where he was scheduled to speak and sing.

    I wanted to share some of what I’ve learned from Samuel Morris’s story
    1. There’s hope in the most hopeless situation when Our Father intervenes
    2. Gratitude to God calls for the utmost consecration to Him and His cause
    3. We , the ones reading, can miraculously be saved even today from the most hopeless situation and transferred to a life of meaning and purpose. Let us call upon our Father and expect Him to rescue and use us 🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽

Your so faithful and loving to your children! Thank you for giving Samuel such a determined Spirit to trust you. I pray for that same gift that I wouldn’t be easily swayed by anyone so that to trust you wherever or however you lead me. You used Samuel so powerfully before he was “educated” and brought so much glory through him and many came to know you better thank you Jesus for using many to humble us and learn how to walk with you

      THE REALITY OF THE CHRISTIAN FAITH IS A HEAVENLY CALL BY GOD HIMSELF AND NOT A PASTOR OR DENOMINATION. THIS DEAR YOUNG SAINT OF GOD IS TRULY A ROUGH DIAMOND TO BE CUT ONLY BY THE HAND OF GOD.HE CAME FROM AFRICA WITH NOTHING AND HE LEFT THIS WORLD WITH NO WORLDLY GOODS. BUT HIS PURITY OF HEART FOR GOD AND THE WELFARE FOR THE CONDITION OF THE HUMAN RACE. IN AMERICA TODAY THE CHRISTIAN FAITH IS ALL BASED ON POLITICS ,[ CONTROL AND SUPPORTED BY THE USA GOVERNMENT. IN THE WORLD TODAY THE PURE GOSPEL IS MORE EFFECTIVE IN AFRICA AND ASIA ,MIDDLE EAST SOUTH AND CENTRAL AMERICA. BECAUSE THESE THESE PEOPLE TAKE THE BIBLE AS GOD WORD AND BELIEVE IT COMPLETELY. COMPARE TO THE NORTH AMERICAN CHRISTIANS , VERY FEW ARE CHILDREN OF GOD, THE MAJORITY ARE CONSECRATED AND DEDICATED TO THEIR CHURCH .PASTORS LEADERS AND DENOMINATIONS. SINCE YOU ARE SINCERE IN YOUR DESIRE TO EXPERIENCE SUCH HEAVENLY LIFE CONSECRATED TO GOD ALONE . THERE IS A PRICE TO PAY , [1] DYING TO SELF , [2]FORSAKING ALL WORLDLY DESIRE AND BECOME A PUPIL ON YOUR KNEES IN PRAYER AND FASTING AND TO READ THE WORD OF GOD AND MEDITATING ON IT. AND APPLYING IT IN YOUR DAILY LIFE, BE A PERSON OF FEW WORDS , ALWAYS LET THE LOVE OF GOD BE DISPLAYED IN YOUR DAILY LIFE ,BY WORD AND DEEDS. AND LET THE HOLY SPIRIT LEAD YOU BY THE WORD OF GOD.

      Wisdom 4:10-15
      There was one who pleased God and was loved by Him, and while living among sinners he was taken up. He was caught up lest evil change his understanding or guile deceive his soul. For the fascination of wickedness obscures what is good, and roving desire perverts the innocent mind. Being perfected in a short time, he fulfilled long years; for his soul was pleasing to the Lord, therefore he took him quickly from the midst of wickedness. Yet the peoples saw and did not understand, nor take such a thing to heart, that God’s grace and mercy are with His elect, and He watches over His holy ones.
      Isaiah 57:1-2
      The righteous perish, and no one takes it to heart; the devout are taken away, and no one understands, that the righteous are taken away to be spared from evil. Those who walk uprightly enter into peace.
      Hebrews 11:38

      @SamuelMorrisStory  Год назад

      Education and learning in a school is not a bad thing, I think Sammy was surrounded by many godly people at the time he was a student at Taylor U. I would not say others didn't rely on the Holy Spirit like Sammy did but maybe it was the case that Sammy was searching to learn about the Holy Spirit and through his intense search he became a living example to others and to all of us.

    • @SamuelMorrisStory
      @SamuelMorrisStory  Год назад

      There is however a danger of studying that gets in the way of the reality and simplicity that is in Christ. I'm reminded of another hero in the faith similar in many ways to Sammy... Sundar Singh (1889 - 1929?) who once said:
      I studied theology in a theological seminary. I learned many useful and interesting things no doubt, but they were not of much spiritual profit. There were discussions about sects, about Yesu Christ and many other interesting things, but I found the reality, the spirit of all these things, only at the Master’s feet.
