Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Master Builder on the Congo: A Memorial to the Service and Devotion of Robert Ray Eldred and Lillian Byers Eldred Robert Ray Edith Byers Eldred, the hero and heroine of this book, gave their lives for the redemption of Africa as truly as did Melville B.Cox or Alexander Mackay. They lived sacrificial lives and rejoiced that to them was this grace given, that they should preach among primitive and pagan people the unsearchable riches of Christ. Like Livingstone, they were ready for any movement, provided it was a forward movement. Like Paul, they made it their aim so to preach the gospel, not where Christ was already named, that they might not build upon another man´s foundation. Like the Moravians, their desire was to give to the Lamb that was slain the reward of His sufferings. Both laid down their lives in Africa and for Africa. Mrs. Eldred died on the Bussira with no other white woman near to wipe the death-damp from her brow or to speak words of comfort and hope in her last moments. Mr. Eldred died while pioneering in a part of the field far beyond where any other missionary had ever been. It was because of the heroism and unselfish devotion and nobleness of their lives and the fruitfulness of their services that this book was written. The writer is a graduate of the same school as Mr. Eldred The College of The Bible, of Transylvania University, and was associated with him and his wife in their work as missionaries.
