Excerpt from Outlines of Missionary History

There is, of course, a right place for these things. But while the interest of the child is child like, the mere interest of the adult is childish. Let us have interest in the Sunday school, but let us have passion in the Church, based upon some knowledge of its progress. We must expect from the Church more than interest in that work of re demption for which Christ endured the agony of a Gethsemane and the heartbreak of a Calvary. The Master went to His death amidst apparent failure and defeat, content to foresee the result of that travail of His soul which should satisfy. The work which was thus initiated by the pas sion of Christ can hardly be carried on only as it appeals to the interest of the Church.
