Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Decisive Hour of Christian Missions The World Missionary Conference held in Edinburgh in June of the present year constituted in its plan, in its personnel, in the Spirit which characterized it, and in its promise, the most Significant gathering ever held in the interest of the world's evangelization. In preparation for the Conference eight representative international Commissions had been at work for over eighteen months making a scientific investigation and study of some of the most pressing and vital problems Of Christian missions. Associated With these Commis Sions as correspondents were the principal missionaries and leaders of the Church on the mission fields, as well as many of the foremost thinkers and workers of the missionary forces at home. The reports re sulting from these special investigations have afforded a very comprehensive presentation of the Tacts about the main aspects of the missionary situation. Those who have had opportunity to examine the mass of evidence gathered by the Commissions and to listen to the discussions of the reports at the Edinburgh Con ference must have been impressed with the fact that the present is the decisive hour of Christian missions. In the history Of Christianity there has never been such'a remarkable conjunction of Opportunities and crises on all the principal mission fields and of favor ing circumstances and possibilities on the home field.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christian Missions and the Social Ideal: A Sermon Before the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions, at the Seventy-First Annual Meeting, Held in Lowell, Mass., Oct. 5, 1880 The sea offered only images of terror to the mind of those to whom St. John wrote. It bounded the known world. They peopled with direful fancies the regions which lay beyond its distant rim. Meaning by the word sea the Mediterranean, with which they were chiefly conversant, it would suggest to them ideas of distance and separation long and perilous voyages, which would not bring them to friends, but to savage and hostile tribes. No doubt all these ideas were in the mind of the rapt seer when he used his beautiful image. He is carried forward by the Spirit of God into the time when Christ shall be the universal King. It is the glory and blessedness of that day which his vivid figure paints. He means to say that a time is coming, in the history of our world, when the dominion of man over nature shall be complete, the sea even not blocking the pathways of his love; when he shall regard no place as the abode of mys tery or danger; and when that separation, difficulty of access, and hostility which now divide the nations from one another, and of which the sea is a striking symbol, shall give place to an easy, brotherly, and uniformly delightful intercourse among all the inhabitants of our globe. The march of the human family toward this blessed state began in the dawn of history, and is still going forward. Let me speak to you a little of the means by which the great renovation Is to come about first, of some of the natural and human means; secondly, of the supernatural, as seen in the gospel, or more especially in the work of Christian missions.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Foreign Missions: Being a Study of Some Principles and Methods in the Expansion of the Christian Church The following pages are merely an essay. They can lay no claim to completeness, and more experienced eyes will convict them of many inadequacies besides those of which I myself am conscious. We may sometimes be irritated by the seeming lethargy of our Church, and its activity in the Mission Field does not always compare favourably with that of some other communions. But it is probably true to say that the Church of England takes more interest in the Mission Field now than it has done at any period since the Norman Conquest. Missionary meetings are many, and the output of missionary literature of various kinds has become so large that it is impossible to maintain an acquaintance with it all. To prevent being lost in a maze of detail, I have tried to consider the missionary work of the Christian Church as a whole. I have tried to set forth shortly the grounds upon which missionary enthusiasm rests, to sketch the missionary history of the past, and to offer some suggestions as to methods of maintaining and extending interest in missions, and of equipping missionaries for their work.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Enlargement Through Service: Annual Sermon, Before the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions Having paid our respects in the spirit of true Christian courtesy, we hope to the objectors to foreign missions and suggested how hopelessly behind the age a non-missionary church is, let us pursue a line not so much hackneyed as some to which on similar occasions to this we have been often invited, and ask as to the influence of Foreign Missions upon ourselves.

Download or read book The Missionary Motive (Classic Reprint) written by J. H. Oldham and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-30 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Missionary Motive The study of foreign missions has been greatly extended during the last seven. Years since the wide-spread adoption of the small-circle method, and there has grown up a considerable literature intended primarily for the use of study-circles. It is now possible for a group of people who wish to study any of the great mission-fields, to find a text-book written specially for their purpose and giving in small space an admirable account of the nature and history of the country and the progress of Christianity within it. With the progress of missionary study, however, there has become evident a tendency to con centrate attention upon the externals of mission ary work, and the immediate setting of the missionary need, with the result that the essential spiritual forces which have always animated missions and missionaries have slipped some what into the background. This tendency is only a special case of a wide spread danger which represents the defect of the qualities of modern missionary organization. We live in a day when missionary conferences and committees, missionary literature and campaigns cover the ground, and an immense amount of single-hearted labour is being put into the double task of assisting the work ofmissionaries on the field, and awakening and sustaining the missionary passion in the Church at home. Yet there is in all this a peril lest amid our activities we forget God; lest in our insistence on the crisis and opportunity of the present time we shift the ground of missions from the eternal love and mercy of God to the temporary exigencies of a single race or generation. We need to define anew the missionary motive, for our own souls' strength and for the sake of those to whom the missionary appeal is made to-day. This book is a slight contribution to the task. It is not complete within its own limits, still less is it a history of missionary work. Several typical epochs have been chosen, and in them the writers have tried to show how the missionary motive presented itself to devout and faithful souls. No criticism of methods has been attempted, and where controversial matters have been touched, as it was inevi table they should, the endeavour has been made to put the reader en rapport with the best and noblest in each type of religious devotion and expression, without criticism of the remainder. It should be added that this book springs out of corporate thought and prayer, although all the contributors heartily wish there had been more time and opportunity for such preparation, and it is hoped that it may be read and discussed in the same spirit.
