Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a historical analysis of Protestant missionary activity in China from its beginning in the early 19th century to the end of the century. The author explains how the initial diplomatic concessions that opened China to foreign influence allowed missionaries to enter the country and establish churches. Building on the initial successes, missionaries banded together for support and efficiency. The author shows that by the end of the century, the work of these missionaries laid the foundation for the growth of Christianity in China. Overall, this book offers a detailed account of the challenges and triumphs of early Protestant missions in China, providing valuable insights into the complex relationship between religion, diplomacy, and cultural exchange.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the interrelationship between Christianity and war, arguing that the Christian ethos can provide a viable alternative to war as a means for conflict resolution. The author traces the historical evolution of attitudes towards war within Christianity, from the pacifism of early Christians to the rise of the just war theory in the Middle Ages. The book examines the ethical principles underlying both pacifism and just war theory, and argues that a Christian understanding of love and forgiveness can provide a more effective and humane approach to conflict than resorting to violence. The book concludes by exploring the practical implications of a Christian equivalent of war, suggesting ways in which Christian principles can be applied to international relations, social conflicts, and personal relationships. This book offers a timely and thought-provoking exploration of the role of Christianity in promoting peace and resolving conflict.
