Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Brief History of Missionary Enterprise in Antient and Modern Times: Lecture Memoranda, World Missionary Conference, Edinburgh, 1910 Missionary enterprise is the highest form of Christian benevolence and one of the noblest works of man. It is in that instinctive desire which was implanted by the Creator in the human breast to help the weak and better the condition of others, that we have the germ of the impulse that has ever urged man to brave the greatest hardships and even the martyr´s grave. The dominant feature of the life of the great Founder of Christianity and the maternal instinct to succour weak and helpless children are typified in the missionary efforts of the Christian Church. Abraham, who may fitly be called the first missionary, became the founder of the Church in the early ages. He has been called the Old Testament precursor of St. Paul who two thousand years afterwards, applied to the Gentiles the universal doctrines of faith and forgiveness advocated by the Patriarch. Some 400 years after the time of Noah, idolatry became rife among the people. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
