Excerpt from Protestant Missions: Their Rise and Early Progress, Lectures

The lectureship on Foreign Missions in a theological seminary should first occupy itself with such Scriptural facts and principles as pertain fundamentally to this department. Reverent, patient, and scholarly attention should be given to the nature and scope of Christ's kingdom; its divinely ap pointed agencies; the obligations, motives, and methods in cumbent; the obstacles to be overcome; the predicted earthly period; its varied fortunes and final triumph. There is emi nent need that sound exegesis be applied to the prophecies, parables, and symbols in both Testaments which relate to the kingdom and to the Church of our Lord. An extended series - indeed, successive series - of lectures may well be devoted to this broad field. A partial attempt in that line was made at the Hartford Theological Seminary a few years since; but the lectures now published, which were delivered at that institution, are of a difierent type and form an intro duction to the history of more modern Protestant missions.
