Excerpt from The Christless Nations: A Series of Addresses on Christless Nations and Kindred Subjects Delivered at Syracuse University on the Graves Foundation, 1895 Farseeing Christians perceive that America is destined to be, in a broad and yet very true sense of the word, the great missionary nation of the world. It will be her peculiar mission in history to Christianize and elevate all the nations of the earth. The great movement'which was inanga rated about a century ago will assume immense proportions as the years go by, and fifty years hence will probably be one of the greatest move ments on the globe. We should study such a movement carefully and prayerfully, and ponder well our own relation to it. If we may venture to hope that God has, in the multitude of his tender mercies, winked at the past inattention and disobedience of his Church in neglecting her com mission to evangelize the nations, such a hope can hardly be indulged in the future. The providential tokens are too many, the calls are too loud and too constant, the Spirit's promptings are too clear and too universal to permit us to disobey longer with out incurring guilt before both heaven and earth. While the following lectures deal somewhat freely with what might be called the home aspects of the missionary enterprise, the foreign work is by no means passed over in silence. The work is one, and the workers at home and abroad are bound together by inseparable interests. New questions are coming to the surface in the foreign field, some of which are brie y discussed, while questions of policy of long standing receive the attention which they have long merited.
