Description

Excerpt from Christian Belief Interpreted by Christian Experience: Lectures Delivered in India, Ceylon, and Japan at the Barrows Foundation

It is with hesitation that I submit to Western readers the simple record of this try to preach Christ in the East. The publication of these Lectures has been long delayed by reason Of circumstances beyond my regulate.

The task of a Barrows Lecturer in the Orient is deli cate and difficult. He goes as a representative of Western University life to confer with his equals, the educated men Of the Eastern hemisphere, upon matters of seriousness and weight. Thorough philosophical training, combined with extensive knowledge of Eastern history and institutions, is a desirable qualification for this work. I didn’t have this qualification. The appointment came to me un sought. It was once accepted under a sense of duty, and was once fulfilled under a consciousness of many limitations.
