Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Japan Christian Yearbook, 1964: A Survey of the Christian Movement in Japan During 1963 Except where otherwise indicated, the respective writers of the articles are alone responsible for the views expressed. Their Opinions doubtless represent earnest convictions and as such are worthy of expres sion. It will doubtless be noted that this issue con tains some reference to non-christian or quasi-christian groups. It should be clearly understood that this is solely by way of record and in no sense an endorse ment of views which are an aberration from the verities of the Christian faith. In order to facilitate ready reference, the usual Report section has been eliminated and the material incorporated in the relevant articles. These have been arranged in four major sections, with a well qualified editor assigned to each. In view of the fact that certain topics have not received adequate treatment in recent years, and also in the interest of a broader ecumenicity, considerable background material is in cluded to supplement the account of developments in 1963. Owing to the great proliferation of Protestant de nominations since World War 11 it is obviously impossible to include a narrative report from each. In recent years such material has had chiefly to do with the larger denominations with long historical antecedents in Japan. Thus information concerning all the churches has been mainly restricted to the statistical tables. The present volume, however, in cludes an extensive account of a large number of groups by denominational families, with only the largest denominations treated as such. In addition, there is a directory of denominational headquarters, which includes the statistics of the number of churches in each group, membership and the number of Japan ese ministers and affiliated missionaries also indicated. With a number of groups failing to report annual statistics, and also refusing to reply to such inquiries, certain inaccuracies may be found and more accurate information will be welcome. Some of the larger denominations had the courage to purge their rolls in 1963, with the result that considerable membership losses are apparent in certain cases.

It is also a sacred duty for the editor to express his sincere appreciation for the hearty cooperation and help rendered by Christian friends in this country. Different as they may be in their theological, political and social points of view, they are all uhited in trying to describe the events and affairs, religious and otherwise, as objectively and impartially as possible. It is hoped that the articles in this volume will contribute much to the proper understanding and appreciation of Christianity in present day Japan. This year may seem to be a less eventful than the years of the Protestant Centenary (1959) and the World Convention of Christian Education Nevertheless, this has been an eventful year. The significance of the several events must be properly appraised. Mr. Muto is an excellent writ er who gives an unprejudiced observation on social affairs from a Christian point of View. Dr. Kuwada's article on religious freedom will throw much light on our understand ing of the shinto-shrine problem in this country. It is an article worth perusal.

This book was released on 2018-02-18 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Japan Christian Yearbook, 1968 As Sadao Watanabe's special jacket for this 1968 Japan Christian Yearbook indicates, this is a special issue. It is a special issue for two reasons: 1) It commemorates the Centennial observance of the Meiji Restoration of 1868; 2) It is the first Japan Christian Yearbook: to be prepared and issued under joint Protestant and Roman Catholic auspices. In connection with the Centennial observance of the Meiji Restoration, which restored Japan as a strong and united nation within the world's community of nations, an attempt has been made by the Editors and Editorial Committee of the 1968 Japan Christian Yearbook to: 1) review and analyze the planting and development of Christianity in Japan; 2) Show the role which Christianity has played in Japan's modernization; and, 3) evaluate the place of Christianity in both present and future Japanese thought and culture. In reference to the second special and unique character of this issue of the Yearbook - its being a product of joint Pro testant and Roman Catholic efforts - the Editorial Committee has from the very beginning rejected any idea of speaking about Protestant or Catholic points of view, no matter how legitimate such a distinction might be theologically or ecclesiastically. In other words, we have resolved to approach our common tasks simply as Christians. This stance has been strengthened by the participation of some' outstanding non-christians in the ecumenical dialogue which is repre sented in these pages.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Japan Christian Yearbook, 1956, Vol. 45: A Survey of the Christian Movement in Japan During 1955 This article makes no attempt to enumerate all im portant events in the Christian movement in Japan dur ing Rather the purpose has been to sharpen up and to analyse briefly some of the more evident trends in the Protestant Church, in this country. To the ex tent which a discussion of political and economic aspects is deemed a prerequisite toward an intelligent under standing of the general religious situation, a summary treatment of these fields is presented as an introduction. The only valid reason why this article has been written by a person who has been but five years in this land is that I was so requested by people who perhaps should have known better.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Japan Christian Year Book, 1936: Continuing the Japan Mission Year Book, Being the Thirty-Fourth Issue of the Christian Movement in Japan and Formosa This thirty-fourth issue of the annual publica tion of the Federation of Christian Missions in Japan is presented to the public with the modest hope that it may take a worthy place in the long series of efforts to record the most significant events of the years as they have come and gone, and especially as they have concerned the Chris tian Movement. The times through which Japan is now passing are indeed important. And what they may- mean for the future, who can tell? In any case, the Editors hope that an honest effort to set forth present trends and current situations may help to spread abroad knowledge which in turn may aid in the development of a Christian civilization. Gratitude is due to all those who have had a share in the making of this book, especially to those who are not directly related to the Federa tion of Christian Missions. The drudgery which certain portions of the book demands of those who are kind enough to consent to undertake such labors, is understood only by those who have had the experience. But work well done has its own incorruptible reward. That the book is not all that it should be, and that it has many shortcomings IS well known to the Editor. Therefore, gentle reader, let us seek to gether a more adequate Year Book and a more Christian Japan. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
