A plea to cease the unique world opportunity
Posted by wisdomtree on January 2, 2008
The first duty of a World Missionary Conference meeting at such an auspicious time is to consider the present world situation from the point of view of making the Gospel known to all men, and to determine what should be done to accomplish this Christ-given purpose…It is earnestly hoped thatthe way may be pointed to a more scientific study of the fields and problems, and, above all, that enough may have been done to impress the Church with the unprecedented urgency of the situation, and to create a sense of deep solicitude as to the grave consequences that must ensue if the present unique world opportunity be not improved.
