Not illustrated. 1903 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XII Asceticism NOT long ago there was a warm discussion on the luxury of missionaries in India whose incomes were at or under 300 per annum. They were belittled as destitute of the true missionary spirit which was manifested by the man who lived in a garret, under a hot roof, who went out barefoot in the dusty street, and whose head was protected from the burning sun only by a handkerchief. Asceticism appeals with peculiar force as a virtue to those who are surrounded by a superabundance of the good things of this life, in which they find their chief enjoyment, and the voluntary renunciation of which seems to them the highest form of self-denial. This respect is manifested not to the work done, but to the voluntary privations undergone by the ascetic. It is of a piece with the value attached by some natures to ritualistic practices. Both forms of respect have the common origin of ignorance of the true nature of Christian principles, and of the consequent importance attached to externals, whether in eating, drinking, or ceremonial. As not a few Christian people are ever readyto applaud what appears to be self-denial in the way of voluntary privation; and especially as many believe that the ascetic makes the ideal missionary, the subject is worthy of examination. Affecting the missionary there are four forms of asceticism--I. Asceticism proper, or abstention from ordinary food; II. Celibacy; III. Self-Exile; IV. Self-Sacrifice. I. ASCETICISM This term is usually applied to a moderation in food and drink approaching to or merging in abstemiousness or even abstention. It originated with the Greek athletes, who knew, as their modern representatives know, the necessity of moderation in all things when in training for athletic...

This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mission Methods in Manchuria The year 1874 began with three baptized men as the nucleus of the present Presbyterian Church in Manchuria. The year 1900 began with more than 27,000 persons on the rolls of the Church, either as baptized members, or as accepted applicants for baptism. Probably half as many more, related to these by family ties, had abandoned idolatry and considered themselves connected in a sort of fashion with the Christian Church. Ten times as many had acquired such an elementary knowledge of Christian doctrine as to lead them to regard it with respect, many of them declaring that Christianity must be the future religion of the Chinese. It has been suggested by some, whose wish is tantamount to a command, that a delineation of the principles on which the work was originated and has hitherto been conducted might be useful to the Christian Church, as a small contribution towards a systematic study of missionary methods.

Download or read book The Realities of Money and Missions written by Jonathan J. Bonk and published by William Carey Publishing. This book was released on 2022-03-21 with total page 517 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Integrity, Viability, and Accountability Perhaps there is no greater challenge in missions than money. Paul reminds us, “For we are taking pains to do what is right, not only in the eyes of the Lord but also in the eyes of man” (2 Cor. 8:21). Money sufficient to assure the viability of one’s life work carries with it an insidious ethical virus that can easily infect the integrity and accountability of its stewards. The Realities of Money & Missions provides a unique level of credibility and transparency as it calls for evangelicals to reevaluate their relationship with money, both personally and corporately. Global case studies, workshops, and testimonials cover a broad range of topics such as: Misalignment between fiscal theology and practice Environmental stewardship, community development, and business as mission Mobilization, fundraising practices, and “faith financing” Short-term missions, patronage, and dependency Power dynamics and structural injustice The Realities of Money & Missions was not written by experts in the fields of investment, money management, or fundraising, but by men and women whose calling as missionaries, pastors, and administrators has brought them face-to-face with the complex, real-life issues involving the intersection of money and ministry.
