False views are often entertained of the relation of this work to the church. Some regard it as a scheme which has its origin, like that of many worldly enterprises, in the invention Of ambitious minds; sustained by a passion for achievement, and therefore destined to a short existence. Others treat it as the fruit of an enthusiasm, m which there is no fair estimate of the power of Christianity, or Of the power of the church to Spread it; and hav ing no intelligent principle as its basis: a scheme appended to the church, so morally Significant as for a time to arrest attention; but economically unsound, and hence must ere long be a failure.

Excerpt from The Missionary Enterprise a True Development of the Life of the Church: A Sermon, Before the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions, at Their Meeting in Worcester, Mass., October 4, 1864
The responsibility of this hour 1s Of no ordinary kind. The cause Of missions in its eventful history, in its wide reach - looking to the restoration of a world to the. Allegiance of Christ, in its present posture, necessitous yet hopeful, makes a demand on him who pleads it, in View of which he may well tremble. What words-shall he speak, so that something may be added to the power of the church in this work of love? His duty is plain. Let him take his position on the foundation which Christ has laid, and exalt the unchanging principles of his kingdom. Then under the blended light of provi dence and promise, let him shape his plea in har mony with the process by which God is working for the conversion of the world. The text will be an appropriate guide to such a plea. Among whom ye shine as lights in the world holding forth the word of life.
