Description

Excerpt from Lady Missionaries Foreign Lands It is only in Christian lands that women occupy their proper place. In all other countries they are drudges, slaves, or victims but equals or companions, never! Christianity in a large measure revokes the curse which the Fall imposed on women and Christ made the sexes more equal by coming as a man, and being born of a woman. He not only raised the standard of our common humanity by wearing our human nature, but He took the bitterness out of the woman's lot by honouring and adopting motherhood. From that time, all motherhood became brighter and holier, and all womanhood grander yet tenderer. The knowledge of Christ as a Saviour comes to the female heathen with new beauty, because of their saddened and depressed condition, and this knowledge is eagerly welcomed by them as good news. But they were debarred from these glad tidings, until Christian ladies made them known, and by so doing, caused such joy to enter Syrian hut, Mohammedan harem, and Indian zenana, as never beamed there before. The spreading of these tidings, in one way or another, forms woman's peculiar mission to the heathen. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
