CHRISTIAN RNDEAvOR.
A Mrssr NARY MEETING
F, brua y 10. Ac.s 10: LIP.

Nothing il more manifest, in the
study Of tho early history of Christian
ity, than the fact that that the first dis
ciples were sent abroad to teach and to
preach the gospel Of Christ among all
nations. The great commission OF the
ascending Saviour WAS to the effest
that all nations were to be made dis
ciples. They were to be Witnesses to
the uttermost parts OF the earth. By
pre-eminence they were 10 be Gods
missionaries to their fellow men. This
was their business, for which they were
called, and in whichrthey were mighty
blessed and prospered.
The missionary spirit was prominent
in the church at its birth, and has been
more or less conspicuous in all of its
marvellous career. Through the ef-
forts OF these consecrated heralds Of
the cross, nations which were in dark
ness were brought within The reach of
the gospel light. These heroic souls
became martyrs. 1t meant something,
in these days, to be open followers of
the lowly Nazai enc; and il came to
pass, in the course of centuries, that
"the blood Of the martyrs was the seed
of the church."
Those who deny this fact know moth
ing of the history of the Christian
church; and they know not the mind Of
the Master, who came to found that
church, i'll order that the kingdom Of
heaven might be established among
men. Yet there are those who sneer
at missions. as thouge they we're not
divinely ordained and sanctioned by
the Son of God.
All civilized nations are indebted to
missionary eferts in the past; and it Is
inc mbent upon them 10 pay the debt, |
by sending The gospel tidings to the
nations which sit in darkness, who
know not the light which is the life of |
men. Bene6cisries of the missionary
movements of the bygone centuries
should be slow in casting reflections on |
The very agency through which they
we're transformed from savagery to
civilization.
Christianity is stripped of its crown
ng Characteristic when men deny its
spirit ard achievements
The religion OF Jesus Christ is nothing
1t all if it is not, by pre-eminence, a
religion. No one Can in any
proper sense, be follower of Christ
who denies this cardinal principle; and
t shows lack Ct intelligence and
deficient knowledge Of human history
'or. any one lightly TO Say, as many do, I
Il do rot believe in n issions." This
'eally means, 81 do rot believe in pay
ne my honest debts" for it is practi-
al policy Of reputation in religious
'fairs. In business, such methods
would be considered dishonest and
lisEonorhble.
