THE IMPORTANCE OF INTEREST
ING STUDENTS IN MISSION
STUDY.
By Charles C. Davison, Jr.
(Read before the first annual con
vention of the Georgia Students’ Mis
sionary League.) ■
A profound obligation rests upon us
who have the Gospel to give it by
all means in our power to those who
have it not. If we expect the “evan
gelization of the world in this genera
tion,’’ we must awaken and maintain
an intelligent and active interest in
missions among those who are des
tined to become leaders in every walk
of life.
The experience of the past shows
that where our commerce has gone
without the Gospel, it has proved a
curse rather than a blessing; where
our learning has gone without the
religion of Jesus Christ, it has had
the same result. But where our mis
sionaries have preceded our com
merce and learning, there has been a
diffusion of philanthropy, charity and
reform and our mission stations have
become centers for these virtues and
for the dissemination of Western civilb
zation.
To the individual student the study
of missions will give a definiteness of
aim and a determinate life purpose,
and it will help him learn what the
deeper life is and to discover what
God’s will is concerning his own life.
As it is true of a church, so it is of
an individual: “If he does not respond
to the divine impulse to answer hu
man appeals, he will suffer impover
ishment in his own soul.” It is the
duty of every Christian to face this
question. The student who has
gained a knowledge of missions has
his intellect quickened and his vision
broadened, and comes into compan
ionship with him who is the spirit
of the movement. Youth is the age
of enthusiasm an demulation. Their
aspirations are high and outreaching,
their impulses are noble and lofty.
The career for which God has de
signed a man or a woman will very
likely be indicated in his or her stud
ies and in the tastes, fitness and ca
pacity which are developed in the indi
vidual. Students, too, are in position
to divert their studies in the direc
tion that will best fit them for their
life-work.
Mission study will further inspire
young men and young women to noble
manhood and womanhood by contact
with the world-wide influence. It will
help them grasp definitely and perma
nently the vastness and the variety
of the subject, together with its prob
lems and lessons. They will feel its
power, catch its vision, bend beneath
its spirit and have their lives en
riched permanently. It helps the stu
dent get a clear understanding of the
purpose of God’s word and helps to'
develop symmetrical Christian char
acter. Christian character is not fully
developed until it is missionary, for
the spirit of missions is the spirit of-
Christ. By the study an interest is;
implanted in the subject and a desire'
to study it further and an enthusiasm,
to bring others under its influence
students are led, too, to give their
lives to the service where the fray is
thickest. One young man, after a,
struggle, gave up to the impulse and
asked the secretary to send him to
the very hardest field he could find.
And then students, who have studied
the subject, will be a force for mis
sions in any walk of life into which
they may go.
In North America there are more
than 1,000 institutions of learning hav
ing in attendance over 200,000 stud
ents. From these institutions go out
leaders in every department of activi-

ty. No work then is more important
than that of making the student bodies
strongholds and centers of missionary
intelligence, enthusiasm, and activity.
The study exerts a mighty reflex in
fluence upon the life of the college
community. It widens the horizon,
enlarges the sympathies and stimu
lates the zeal of the students and
tends to counteract the subtle influ
ences of pride, selfishness and ration
alism that are manifest in student bod
ies and to cultivate an altruistic spir
it. There are influences in college
life that tend to keep the atmosphere
cold. The spirit of missions is tho
spirit of Christ and the study of mis
sions deepens the spiritual tone of tho
community.
Then what does the study of mis
sions mean to the churches? It de<
velops the missionary life of our
home churches, especially in young
people’s societies. “Early consecration
means enrichment of the church.” To
have something definite to do is the
very life of a church. Past methods
of having an occasional sermon or
lesson on missions will not suffice to
quicken and strengthen the life of a
church as does the systematic study
of the subject. This enables the
churches to advocate the enterprise
intelligently and to promote it by their
gifts and their prayers. When people
learn of the vast need of spreading
the truth, they not only give their
means but themselves also. From
1891 to 1904, as the result of students
studying missions, 2,400 went to the
foreign field, while many are engaged
in the work at home. In 1891 there
were only 558 student delegates to the
missionary convention, while in 1902
there were 2,225. Students gave $68,-
000 to missions during the scholastic
year of 1902-03. In 1904-05 they gave
$83,430.22, an increase in one year of
$10,540.25. That the churches may be
alive to their responsibilities and equal
to their tasks, the young men and
young women who are to become their
leaders, must have the missionary spir
it. The success in extending the good
news abroad will react mightily upon
the life and power of the churches at
home.
This great movement calls for the
best men, of the best powers—men
who have the very best training and
a large diversity of gifts. The duties
of a missionary are arduous and the
problems that he is called upon to
meet and grapple with daily are pro
found. Missionaries should be gifted
as evangelists, and pastors and be fit
ted to fill such positions as teachers
members of college councils, managers
of industrial schools, editors of weekly
newspapers and correspondents for de
nominational papers and magazines in
the home land, and sometimes to sit
in houses of government. Christian
ity is going to be interpreted today
by the class of men and women who
bear the message just as truly as it
was in the days of Peter and Paul.
There are in China only about 110
ordained ministers and millions there
have never heard the story of salva
tion. China’s doors are open to our
civilization. It rests with us whether
the education of these millions shall
be atheistic or Christian. Russia has
130,000,000 people who have been
priest ridden for generations;
Thibet has 8,000,000 and not a
messenger of God in the land.
The average parish of a Christ
ian worker in India is 150,000
people; hundreds of thousands have
never heard the message of Christ
ianity. The mission workers in India
are asking for an additional 5,000 mis
sionaries within the next ten years.
