Book With Our Missionaries in China  Classic Reprint

Download or read book With Our Missionaries in China Classic Reprint written by Mrs. Emma Anderson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-08-24 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from With Our Missionaries in China Since the days when those early apostolic heralds of the glad tidings brought home to the churches of Antioch and Jerusalem the reports of their conquests among the heathen, the mission story has never failed to enrich the spiritual life of the church, and to inspire God's children to respond to His call for workers. Missionary information is necessary to missionary inspiration. Our young people, to whom the calls from the regions beyond come with special force to day, need.to lift up their eyes and look on the fields white already to harvest. They need to study the great mission fields of the world, and to know how God is using persons like themselves to bring the message of His grace into the lives of those who sit in darkness. God has wonderfully blessed the heralds of the ad vent message ih China since they entered that great country, only a few years ago. This book is not an attempt to tell the story of this work. It is merely a series of typical pen sketches, which will give the reader a concrete idea of our missionaries at work. We shall see their surroundings, understand their methods, appreciate their perils, and enter into their joy of seeing souls turned from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Missionaries in China The friends of the author of the following essay, to whose care it has been intrusted for publication, consider that a few introductory remarks regarding the events which have been the immediate cause of its production may be of use to English readers, whose information regarding the recent riots in China must necessarily be slight and vague. Knowledge of foreign countries, even those with which we have constant communication and important interests, is not so general as it ought to be, and comparatively few persons in England comprehend how closely this country is touched by any occurrence that might lead to estrangement or rupture between England and China.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A New Thing: Incidents of Missionary Life in China Sixteen years. Ten years I waited for my mother's consent, feeling sure no blessing could attend my going, if I went against her will, and also feeling sure that the lord would cause her to give me up gladly when His time came. The time of waiting was one of training. Opportunities were given me to help on the missionary work of others, and god in His own way was fitting me for future service.

Book A Mission in China  Classic Reprint

Download or read book A Mission in China Classic Reprint written by W. E. Soothill and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-03 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Mission in China This book is written chiefly for those who, through many years, have loyally lent their support to the work recorded in the following pages, and whose right it is to know more fully that their faith has been met with faithfulness. It was commenced eighteen months ago in response to repeated requests, and with numerous and prolonged periods of interruption, its compilation has occupied the spare moments of that length of time. Herein are recounted some of the experiences met with, and methods followed during nearly a quarter of a century's work amongst the Chinese, a work that has been rewarded by nearly ten thousand conversions, and an increasing confidence in the universal advent of the Kingdom of God. Its principal object is to depict our own Mission, as typical of many others. In addition five chapters will be found at the end, giving in brief an account of the Chinese religions, religions 36 involved and mutually intermingled that close investigation and considerable reading have been necessary to anything like a clear and succinct delineation. The whole closes with a short history of Christianity in China. It is the misfortune of a book of this character that great demands are made on the first personal pronoun. If the reader finds that letter too oft repeated, his sympathy is craved in consideration of the number of times it has been suppressed.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Chinese Recorder and Missionary Journal, Vol. 25: January, 1894 We should decide such questions as these calmly and deliber ately with a full knowledge of our rights and with the desire to act in such a manner as shall tend to prevent the recurrence Of such sad and shocking events. In the first place it is well to remember that when we leave our native lands to live in China as missionaries we in nowise give up our birth-right. The English missionary is still an English man and a British subject in the full possession Of all his rights as such. The American citizen has not relinquished one iota Of his rights and privileges as an American citizen. They both have the same right to claim and to Obtain the protection of their respective governments as the consul, the merchant, or any other foreigner residing on these shores. It is Of the greatest importance that any steps we may take to bring about a solution of this question should be taken at once. The Old saying, 'he gives twice who gives quickly, ' is applicable here. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-10-30 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The International Aspect of the Missionary Movement in China The Missionary Movement in China has been beset with many difficulties of international significance. By reason of the insertion of the toleration articles in the treaties, Christianity has been attacked by the Chinese as a foreign religion with imperialistic 0 designs, and its propagators, accordingly, have been looked upon as representatives of imperialistic powers. In other words, the movement is treated in China not so much as a religious or a social prob lem, but as an international political issue. As such it has, on various occasions, attracted the attention of the world. In recent years, with the rise of national ism in China, the eyes of the world are again more and more turned towards the Missionary Movement in China.

Book Memoir of the Rev  Wm  C  Burns  M A

Download or read book Memoir of the Rev Wm C Burns M A written by Islay Burns and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 606 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoir of the Rev. Wm; C. Burns, M.A: Missionary to China From the English Presbyterian Church This edition of the "Memoir," as the title-page indicates, is a posthumous one. Its loved and lamented author has passed within the veil, to be the sharer, we may not doubt, of his sainted brothers joy, as he had been the follower of his faith, and the loving, like-minded memorialist of his work, as a servant of the Lord Jesus. He has not been spared to complete, as he had begun, the revisal of the volume, or to see it in its new form. He continued at work upon it as long as he was able; and he had made considerable progress, when at last his strength failed him, his Master's summons came, and the pen dropped from his hand. The remaining part had to be provided for otherwise, and it was in compliance with a wish expressed by him a day or two before his death, that I undertook to do what he left undone, - aided by the suggestions of those nearest to him, with whom he was wont to take counsel, and who knew his mind best. The disadvantage attending a publication, thus posthumous to so very limited an extent, will not, I trust, be found to be considerable. His endeavour was, and mine has been, while diminishing as much as possible the size of the volume so as to bring it within the reach of a wide circle of readers, to whom the possession of it, at least, has hitherto been unattainable, to diminish as little as possible its value, or its interest; perhaps even to increase the latter, - by abridging those parts of it which are least personal to its subject, and so rendering it even more distinctively than it was, a Biography of William Burns.
