No Sin to Desert Wife Says Evangelist Torrey
Rev. R. A. Torrey told a Broadway crowd in a Fifty-seventh Street tent last night that it is not a sin for a man to desert his wife or for a wife to desert her husband to seek spiritual life. Earthly ties should not hinder pursuit of heaven, he declared, and a true Christian should not be bound by them. He added, I would rather go to heaven alone than go to her with the best of company. There were no interruptions or questions after the sermon.
