Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Gospel-Message: Or Essays, Addresses, Suggestions, and Warnings on the Different Aspects of Christian Missions to Non-Christian Races and Peoples My heartfelt desire is, at the age of seventy-five, to throw together in a collective form my already published Addresses, Essays, and Warnings, with emendations and enlargements up to the year 1895, and to add others on subjects not previously handled. My criticisms must necessarily be severe and outspoken, because I feel the necessity. The work of an Evangelist is a Divine Call, not a mere worldly profession: it requires the consecration in the morning of life of all the faculties, talents, time, and Gifts, of the consecrated man or woman: they should not descend to vulgar domestic cares until they have given one decade exclusively to their Master´s Service. It is throwing words away to suggest reforms in a Missionary committee, where nearly every member of committee or Secretary, has relations, or connections, or intimate friends, who would be affected thereby. Evangelization has become a great family-concern. In the Middle Ages Monastic establishments by the same gradual degradation fell down from the high Ideal, because the members of those Associations failed to reform themselves. Now is the time for Missionary Associations, many of whom are about to complete their century of existence, to reform abuses, and adapt themselves to the new requirements, before the day of their visitation has passed, and they are absorbed into a Church-organization, which will be totally unable to conduct Missionary operations. Some of these papers may be read with profit at Ladies´ work parties: copies of the book will be sent to all Training Colleges.
