This book was released on 1932 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Except for minor editorial changes the pamphlet is identical with the address that Mrs. Buck delivered before a large audience of Presbyterian women at New York City on December 2, 1932. That address, containing as it did sharp criticism and analysis of Christian missions and a clear call for a higher type of missionary, attracted wide attention. It is to supply a demand from supporters of missions and from missionaries in all parts of the world that the address is now issued in this form."--Jacket flap

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Why and How of Foreign Missions Foreign missions are the realization of the world program of the Church of God, the International mind upon the highest level, and the emancipation of the Church from the pargghial and provincial into the wide spaces of the Kingdom of God. The Church was slow to realize its full mission, but gradually the splendid conception of a world-con quering gospel became clearer. Today the foreign missionary enterprise is the vastest work of the Church, as the facts that are given on other pages. Abundantly prove.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Case for Foreign Missions But one day Peter had a vision'which altered his point of. View. He' passed a lonely, meditative 'hour upon a house top hard by the sea, and when he came down from that housetop he 'had a new conception of his relation to us. He was given to know in a vision, that there were no realities corresponding to the boundary lines by which his world washedged about. He learned what men have had to relearn in every successive generation that any division between man and man is both arbitrary and artificial. The'middle wall of partition between Jew and Gentile, so high and so long standing, proved to bea fiction' and a falsehood. And Peter said, or a truth I percelve that God 'is no 'respecter/ of persons: But in every nation-he that feareth him and worketh/righteous ness is accepted with him. That was a far reaching dis covery. It meant ultimatelihristianity for us savages in Britain. For after Peter cam-e Paul preaching the peculiar religionsof a chosen'hpeople to the Gentile world. And eventually, after (paul, came Augustine. Of Canter bury, the (firsttmlss1onary to England. My forefathers were so far from being the'original recipients Of the gos pel, that Christianity was nearly six hundred years old and had run clean through its first great cycle of history, before they knew there was such a thing. Paul, Ignatius, Justin, Irenaeus, Clement, Athanas1us and Augustine had come and done theirwork andgone and we were still our unsuspecting and untroubled savagery. Not merely had the Fathers finished, however imperfectly, the tre mendous task ofwelding the mind of the old class1cal. World to the mind of Christ, but the ecclesiastics, from Cyprian to [gregory the Great had transmuted the con tagious spontaneity of Apostolic Christianity. Into the or ganized efficiency of the Catholic Church. It is much the fashion in these days to deplore the history (of these cen turies as a history of degeneration, the long, sad record of. The secularization of the gospel. And, truly, 'there was much unholy compromise. But the plain and simple fact still remains that out of these first centuries of re adjustment came thatraggressive institution with its res olute dogmatism, which by deliberate and definite for eign missions made Northern and Western Europenominally if not actually Christian. We are not dealing in the history of the early Church any more than in the history of contemporary Christian civilization, with an actual realization of that absolute ideal1sm, that doctrine of perfection which is the gospel of Jesus Christ. We are dealing, then as now, with those tendencies, those half realized ideals, those feebly followed purposes, those desires and inclinations which give to a society a right to be called Christian rather than pagan. And it was the Church, working consciously through foreign missions, which made the Middle Ages, those pregnant centuries from which finally issued our modern world, potentially Christian rather than actually barbarian.

Download or read book Christian Imperialism written by Emily Conroy-Krutz and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2015-11-18 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1812, eight American missionaries, under the direction of the recently formed American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions, sailed from the United States to South Asia. The plans that motivated their voyage were ano less grand than taking part in the Protestant conversion of the entire world. Over the next several decades, these men and women were joined by hundreds more American missionaries at stations all over the globe. Emily Conroy-Krutz shows the surprising extent of the early missionary impulse and demonstrates that American evangelical Protestants of the early nineteenth century were motivated by Christian imperialism—an understanding of international relations that asserted the duty of supposedly Christian nations, such as the United States and Britain, to use their colonial and commercial power to spread Christianity. In describing how American missionaries interacted with a range of foreign locations (including India, Liberia, the Middle East, the Pacific Islands, North America, and Singapore) and imperial contexts, Christian Imperialism provides a new perspective on how Americans thought of their country’s role in the world. While in the early republican period many were engaged in territorial expansion in the west, missionary supporters looked east and across the seas toward Africa, Asia, and the Pacific. Conroy-Krutz’s history of the mission movement reveals that strong Anglo-American and global connections persisted through the early republic. Considering Britain and its empire to be models for their work, the missionaries of the American Board attempted to convert the globe into the image of Anglo-American civilization.

Download or read book Diplomatic Law written by Eileen Denza and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-01-14 with total page 519 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1961 Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations has for over 50 years been central to diplomacy and applied to all forms of relations among sovereign States. Participation is almost universal. The rules giving special protection to ambassadors are the oldest established in international law and the Convention is respected almost everywhere. But understanding it as a living instrument requires knowledge of its background in customary international law, of the negotiating history which clarifies many of its terms and the subsequent practice of states and decisions of national courts which have resolved other ambiguities. Diplomatic Law provides this in-depth Commentary. The book is an essential guide to changing methods of modern diplomacy and shows how challenges to its regime of special protection for embassies and diplomats have been met and resolved. It is used by ministries of foreign affairs and cited by domestic courts world-wide. The book analyzes the reasons for the widespread observance of the Convention rules and why in the special case of communications - where there is flagrant violation of their special status - these reasons do not apply. It describes how abuse has been controlled and how the immunities in the Convention have survived onslaught by those claiming that they should give way to conflicting entitlements to access to justice and the desire to punish violators of human rights. It describes how the duty of diplomats not to interfere in the internal affairs of the host State is being narrowed in the face of the communal international responsibility to monitor and uphold human rights.

This book was released on 2017-12-24 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report on the China Missions of the Presbyterian Board of Foreign Missions 6. A word should be said about these unavoidable products of Confucianism. The Chinese are selfish. It is misleading to think that the altruistic nature of the missionary's mission appeals much to them. They do not understand it so. _he lives, be it never so meanly, above them. He has come from a barbarian country to the Celestial _empire. At worst he is laying up great merit for himself in heaven. He has his ends to gain. The Chinese have theirs and will encourage whatever has profit' m it for themselves, but a religion whose spirit is, It is more blessed to give than to receive, ' 'does not at first com mend itself. At the same time the idea of charity is quite familiar to the Chinese. But it is scarcely like Christian chari ty, for it almost invariably contemplates the earning of merit. Pure, unselfish benevolence is almost unknown. The Chinese are materialistic. Millions of them are pinched tight in the great struggle for life. Bodily hunger is a poor preparation for spiritual aspiration. The Chinese are unsentimental, without spiritual nerves, and with the afl'ections of human nature chilled by the artificialities of Confucianism. The women of the land are servants with 'no place in true sentiment. The language has no word for kiss, and I met no one who would say that what we call love between husband and wife was more than the rarest thing. N 0 human gospel could find such a foothold as Christianity has gained on such hopeless soil. On the other hand, there is no other race in the world that can compare with the Chinese in patience, cheerfulness, industry, frugality, endurance, capacity for work and suffering - qualities out of which the Spirit of God can make such a Church as has not been built up yet in the world.
