Excerpt from China's Crossroads
The missionary doctor is a practical Chris tian worker. He knows that the religions whichhave held sway in China tend to bring weakness to the body as well as to the soul. Fear of fate, selfishness and sin, ignorance and parasitism, are sapping the physical life of the people. Pre ventative medicine must find a way to clean these things from Chinese society, just as it must find means to clean the dirt from the streets and homes.
In this book we might have devoted space to educational, evangelistical and pastoral work. We have not done so. Others know those sub jects far better, and we have been so long deal ing with disease and seeking measures to pre vent it, that we could not help but emphasize this side of the new life which is springing up in China.
The missionaries have been trying to save China, physically, intellectually and spirtually. Some emphasize one of these phases more than others. Perhaps we have underscored the first. They are all found in the human life and bound together. We cannot keep them apart. The thing which lifts up the spiritual life strengthens the physical. We have not found a cure for every ill, but we belive with all our hearts that the acceptance of Jesus Christ as Savmr must be the foundation for the healing of the people and of the nation.
