On and on, while the chilling winds from the desolate shores of doubt vex and rock the whole sea of Christian truth, this influence keeps steadily flowing towards the frozen zones of heathenism. Already these Arctic shores of desolation and chill begin to shoot forth such verdure as grows upon the banks of the River of Life. Because of the recent revival of missionary activity in the Reformed Church we are in danger of forgetting that this candle never went out. There were times when it was burning low, but it was burning. Though its shining was in one of the lower windows of the temple, yet its light was none the less steady; and the highway along which it shone was so bright that no man needed to stumble therein if he were searching for the Light of Life.

This book was released on 2018-02-05 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pioneer Missionaries of the Church The cordial reception which has been given in England, as well as America, to Great Mission aries, which was issued several years ago, has led to the preparation of this Volume. Since the noble men whose life story is briefly told in these twenty six sketches were nearly all of them founders of missions, if not makers of empires, the title Pio neer Missionaries Seems the only one which clearly defines the scope of the book. If the writer had been so inclined, the limits of space would have prevented any embellishment. It has not been an easy task to compress the main fea tures of the biography of a great man of whom the world is not worthy into a single Chapter, when one longs for two or three hundred pages to tell the thrilling story of toil and sacrifice and triumph. Brief as are these sketches, it is hoped they may be found to give the leading facts in the career of each of these missionary heroes, and that not a few of those who read the book, especially among the stu dents in our colleges, may be inspired to follow in their train.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Great Missionaries: A Series of Biographies The Author, some few years since, delivered in Edinburgh, Manchester, and Liverpool, a lecture bearing the title of this volume, containing six short biographical notices of eminent missionaries. A wish was then expressed by many who heard the lecture, and has often been repeated since, that those notices should be enlarged and others added; and the present volume is the result of those suggestions. While not ignorant that the labours of primitive missionaries present a tempting subject for narration, the Author has restricted himself to the toils of modern evangelists, both because this gives greater unity to his notices, and because even this field is more than ample enough for one volume.

Download or read book Our Heroes Vol 2 written by William Marion Weekley and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-18 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Heroes, Vol. 2: Or United Brethren Home Missionaries It has not been an easy task to gather the material for these biographies. The standard histories of the church have but little to say about these remarkable men, and in the whole range of periodical literature, we find a strange dearth of reference to them. So that the larger part of the material composing these chapters is new, having been gathered from other and various sources. Moreover, it has not been an easy task to compress the main features of the biography of a great man of whom the world is not worthy, into a single chapter, when one longs for two or three hundred pages to tell the thrilling story of toil and sacrifice and triumph, We hope, however, that the chapters may be found to give the leading facts in the career of each of these missionary heroes, and that not a few of those who read the book may be inspired to follow in their train. These chapters record no deeds of men whom the world calls great; they record the great deeds of men whom God counts as heroes. The reader will search in vain in the early records of United Brethrenism for any names that are well-known in the annals of the Church at large. The denomination was founded by humble pioneer preachers, men who were willing to serve in obscurity, if through their efforts the souls of men might be saved, and the kingdom of God advanced even in the wilderness. And to these brave men, who cut their way through the forests, who forded dangerous streams, who endured much hard ship and privation, not only our denomination, but the Nation as well, owes a great debt.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memorials of Rev. Carstairs Douglas: Missionary of the Presbyterian Church of England at Amoy, China, 1877 The following extract from one of his letters, dated Amoy, 22 December, i869, gives an example of these. I am quite up to my usual strength, I just got back last night from my first two-week country visit of the winter, having been away thirteen days at Anhai, kwan-kio, and Chin-chew I visited also a new place, where a station is growing up, called Siong-si, at the mouth of the Chin-chew river. My long walks on this journey have been as follows Friday 20 miles, Saturday 20 miles, Wednesday 27 miles, Thursday 17 miles, Friday 9 miles, Saturday 37 miles, Tuesday 20 miles. The 37'14 life: value for discipline and training. A brother missionary writes, He was famous for the long journeys he used to perform on foot in his missionary tours. If He had a very intimate acquaintance with all the best walks among the rugged Amoy hills, and it was a special delight to him, when he could get any of the younger missionaries to join him, to ramble over them, and through their quiet valleys. Another writes, One of the most delightful features in his missionary character was his exceeding helpfulness towards younger labourers. Lhe had ever a cheery and encouraging word for them, delighted to furnish them with books, to explain difficulties and answer questions, and would rouse them up to physical exercise when they were inclined to over study. Above all, his own example was a daily stimulus to diligence, perseverance, method, and con centration in the work of a missionary.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Messengers of the Churches: First Series; Seven Pioneer Missionaries; With Portraits and Illustrations This little volume is an effort to supply a lack of readily available information regarding some representative early missionaries. This want has been specially felt by Sunday Schools, Christian Endeavor Societies and Epworth Leagues, and also by general readers and many ministers. The names selected represent several Churches and countries, but they are of men marked by such catholicity of spirit as to be claimed by all Christians. We have started with the rise of our present-day missionary enterprises in the latter part of the eighteenth century, and hope, in future series, to trace the record towards our own times.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Heroes: Or United Brethren Home Missionaries It has not been our aim, in the preparation of the following chapters, to give a connected history of the Church, but rather to present briefly the lives of a few of the heroes who wrought so nobly in the early days of the various conferences named. Very much that the book contains never appeared in print before. This, no doubt, will interest the reader; and the Church at large, we are sure, will appreciate the fact that so much historical data have been gathered up and put into permanent form. A few years more, with others of the landmarks removed, and no little of this would have been lost beyond recovery. Our task has been both pleasant and difficult. Pleasant, because in studying pioneer achievements we were constantly in communion with the brave and good, and experienced the thrill of a new purpose in our own lives; difficult, owing to the fact that but few of our missionary frontiersmen kept a diary, or received extended notice through the Telescope, or other publications. Some of whom we have written deserve a much fuller notice than we were able to give them. When we began to survey the field of heroes, it soon became apparent that we could not, in our limited space, mention all who had been prominent in carving out the foundations on which those who followed them were to build. Many whose names do not appear were and are worthy in every respect. Be it far from any of us to covet their crowns. The reader will observe that east of the Mississippi River reference is made only to the fathers who have gone from us, while in the West several who are still living receive notice. In the older and more densely populated portions of the Church the number meriting recognition, of course, is much larger than in newer sections. The period covered in the East reaches back more than a century. In the West, Iowa excepted, the Church was not known prior to 1850.
