Excerpt from The Gospel in All Lands, 1898 The Bible was my companion, and, as never before, its truths seemed new and di vinely illuminated. My stateroom was my sanctuary where I communed with God and found relief from the perplexities and trials that assailed me. The occurrence of mv weekly fast and my times of secret prayer brought to me joys unknown before. From the first it had been matter of serious concern with me that before entering on my work in China everything in me not in har mony with the divine will and purpose might be removed, that my heart might be filled with love to God, that he would give me the perfect equipment for my mission which only the Holy Spirit can impart, and that he would prepare the way before me. These supplications were not in vain. 'i received the assurance that God did take full possession of my heart, that he did ap prove me as one of his missionaries to the Chinese, and that his presence would go with me, preparing the way before me. This blessed assurance was given me Octo ber 24, 1847, while wrestling with God in my stateroom. A light such as I had never seen shone into my soul, a joy never before experienced filled my heart, a peace that passeth all understanding took possession of me, and to this day I have never felt any serious doubts in regard to the subject.

Excerpt from The Gospel in All Lands, 1893 Let us not be guilty of fearing for our Bible. It has survived the shocks of eighteen centuries, and now it sways more human hearts than ever. In our own time controversies have broken over it like fierce summer atoms, which only brighten and enrich the face of the landscape they threaten to ruin. For a little while the theory of evolution was confidently affirmed to have shaken a strong ground for our belief in the Bible; it was soon made clear that it had only strengthened it. For fifty years unsparing criticism played upon the historical Christ it only brought him nearer and made his glory more visible to men. Hostile investigation has contributed to our knowledge of the New Testament and has left its credit and authority unimpaired, and now the Old Testament is passing through the same fire.

Excerpt from The Gospel in All Lands, 1894 Persecution is compulsory attempts by a party in a nation to compel other parties to adopt their con victions, in which legitimate persuasion and the exercise of reason are given, and compulsion, bribery, or some other illegitimate methods of the same sort is employed. But persecution is a horrible thing when the government of a country in icts all kinds of tortures short of death itself to compel those who differ from them to believe what they do not believe and see what they do not see. This iaa kind of persecution which happily now is hardly found except in Russia. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Gospel in All Lands: January, 1890 Lift up your eyes - behold the task to which The Master calls. Earth's fields the reapers wait, And low much golden grain is bending now So low that fallen, soiled, and stained it lies Because no hand has gleaned The harvests ripe Invite thy love, thy prayer, thy toil. Before Thine eye and near thine hand the burdened plains Are spread. Thy zeal for souls, thine earnest zeal He asks, who loved and lived and bled and died Salvation to secure for thee and thine. The cost, so great. He freely paid; endured 83101117, war! 5t0rg The cross; despised the shame: so deep the joy He found in pain and travail of his soul For sons of men - for thee! And now he looks To thee, and with a voice so tender, sweet With truest love. He bids thee enter now The Opened gates to gather sheaves for him. Blood-purchased are these waiting fields and sealed His own with all the weight of crushing shame He bore for thee and them.

Excerpt from Gospel in All Lands: January, 1896 For two hundred years all foreigners w.ere rigidly excluded. Until 1840 no footing was gained for the Gospel upon celestial soil. Not until 1860 was it pos sible to penetrate to the interior, and not yet has gravest peril to life from infuriated mobs passed away. After about a generation of comparative freedom for evangelizing effort something substantial and encouraging in the shape of results can be named. A few limited sections have been fairly well supplied with opportunities for hearing the word of life. At least to some slight extent much of the Eighteen Provinces, as well as Mon golia and Manchuria, have been visited by the heralds of salvation, though Thibet, with its square miles and inhabitants, still keeps its gates shut and barred.
