Sarlo family

The Feb. 1951 issue of Light & Liberty contains a blurb entitled "Christ Magnified In My Body" (Phil. 1:20) that follows: "Sarlo, the converted Italian atheist said to me: "Christ magnified in my body... I cannot understand that. I can understand magnifying a small thing like an ant or a blade of grass, but Christ is big... a big Savior; how can He be magnified?" So we told the dear happy believer that, although the Lord Jesus was great in Himself, He is often small in us, and small in the estimation of the world. If Christ be magnified in my body, I shall think more often of Him and be more completely controlled by desires after Him, and the world around will be compelled to think of Him through my testimony and ways. Thus Christ will be magnified as far as we are concerned, though He could not be magnified in Himself." It has been confirmed by a descendant that this was in reference to Carmine Sarlo, who burned all his atheistic books when saved in 1927.
