  • Lavoisier in Nineteenth-Century China
    Benjamin Hobson: The Introduction of Western Religion, Medicine and Science into Nineteenth-Century China CHANG Hao Center for General Education, Fortune Institute of Technology 125-8, Chyi-Wen Rd. Chyi-Shan, Kaohsiung County Tel: 07-6618851#2400 Fax: 07-6618850 E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: Hobson’s success in China was not only based on the medical practice and his religious work, but also on his efforts in introducing natural science to the country. He used to preach to his patients before he treated them. Due to his kind and gentle manner, his faithful attention and skillful practice, he became known as “the model medical missionary.” He thought that medical science in China was at a rather low level, and that the knowledge of anatomy and surgery in ancient Greece and Rome was much superior to anything in nineteenth-century China. Therefore, he attempted to introduce the well-establishes principles and facts of Western medical science to China. Although Hobson was a medical missionary, he did more to promote the study of science in China than any other men of their time. He was the first and for some time most influential Protestant writer on science in the Chinese language. Hobson presented a broad range of scientific knowledge pitched to a general audience, borrowing Chinese terms from those in common use. During the 1850s, he wrote five books on medical science, which were widely regarded as the standard works in this field. His book, bowu xinbian(Natural philosophy and natural history), which was published in 1855 and provided a general introduction to chemistry, physics, astronomy, geography and zoology, was described as like “the dawn of a new era upon Chinese minds.” His Chinese translations for the chemical elements oxygen, hydrogen, and nitrogen, yangqi(nourishing gas), qingqi(light gas), and danqi(diluting gas), are still in use today.

Besides their fear of a loss of power and control, another factor was their ignorance of both practical knowledge and the benefits that could accrue to them from peaceful relations with representatives of Western nations, most particu- larly the resident missionaries. Richard had become convinced that educa- tion in practical Western learning was the key to change. Chinese leaders could develop an understanding of the laws of God working in the forces of nature and then learn how to use these forces for the benefit of their people. The ultimate purpose of this Western learning, however, was to open these leaders to the Christian faith.

  • Daily Get Alone Time: Eric Liddell's Recommendations Liddell's
    Daily Get Alone Time: Eric Liddell’s recommendations A Disciple desires to meet with God day by day, through good times and bad. Like Jesus, they make it a habit to have get alone time before God. It refreshes them spiritually, so they can refresh others. How to keep the get alone time fresh and meaningful? It’s a struggle. Here’s good guidance from a wise leader. (review this with a Disciple) Eric Liddell was famous as a Olympian, the hero of the movie Chariots of Fire. His memorable saying was, when I run I feel His pleasure. He served as a missionary in China in the 1930s. He was captured by the Japanese and put in a concentration camp. He died there. During internment he wrote a Manual of Christian Discipleship for serious Christians. Here’s his teachings about a daily quiet time. Liddell’s Morning Quiet Time: One way to know God is to spend time with him each day. Set aside a specific time for prayer and Bible study and plan to stick to it... Ask yourself, Have I surrendered this new day to God and will I seek and obey the guidance of the Holy Spirit throughout its hours? Wait until you can honestly say, Yes... Here are some suggestions to help you make the most of that time: 1. Be still. God, the source of all truth and love, is here. Take time to realize his presence. Be glad that he speaks when we listen and hears when we pray. Thank him for his Spirit living in us.

  • Eric Liddell's Lasting Olympic Impact on Chinese Culture by Rev Dr Ed & Janice Hird
    Eric Liddell's Lasting Olympic Impact on Chinese Culture By Rev Dr Ed & Janice Hird - published in the July 2019 Light Magazine How often does a Chinese-born missionary to China become the subject of an academy award- winning movie?1 The people of China see Eric Liddell as their first Olympic gold medalist, even recently unveiling a statue of him.2 His daughter Patricia Liddell commented, "My father was multi-faceted, he didn't just appeal to religious people. He was born in China, he worked in China, he died in China. He's their Olympic hero." Duncan Hamilton poignantly commented, “In Chinese eyes, he is a true son of their country; he belongs to no one else.”3 In Chariots of Fire, he is shown running for the glory of God in the 1924 Olympics.4 Eric commented, “I never prayed that I would win a race. I have of course prayed about the athletic meetings, asking that in this too, God might be glorified.”5 A leading sports reporter summed him up as ‘probably the most illustrious type of muscular Christianity ever known.’6 Nicknamed the flying Scotsman, he famously said: “God made me fast, and when I run, I feel His pleasure.”7 When asked how he ran so quickly, he often said that he ran as fast as he could for the first half of a race, and then asked God to help him run even faster for the second half.8 Eric won so much gold and silver that his mother hid his trophies under her bed at night, in case of burglary.9 Missionary families often make great sacrifices for the sake of the lost.

  • ABSTRACT Liang Fa's Quanshi Liangyan and Its Impact on The
    ABSTRACT Liang Fa’s Quanshi liangyan and Its Impact on the Taiping Movement Sukjoo Kim, Ph.D. Mentor: Rosalie Beck, Ph.D. Scholars of the Taiping Movement have assumed that Liang Fa’s Quanshi liangyan 勸世良言 (Good Words to Admonish the Age, being Nine Miscellaneous Christian Tracts) greatly influenced Hong Xiuquan, but very little has been written on the role of Liang’s work. The main reason is that even though hundreds of copies were distributed in the early nineteenth century, only four survived the destruction which followed the failure of the Taiping Movement. This dissertation therefore explores the extent of the Christian influence of Liang’s nine tracts on Hong and the Taiping Movement. This study begins with an introduction to China in the nineteenth century and the early missions of western countries in China. The second chapter focuses on the life and work of Liang. His religious background was in Confucianism and Buddhism, but when he encountered Robert Morrison and William Milne, he identified with Christianity. The third chapter discusses the story of Hong especially examining Hong’s acquisition of Liang’s Quanshi liangyan and Hong’s revelatory dream, both of which serve as motives for the establishment of the Society of God Worshippers and the Taiping Movement. The fourth chapter develops Liang’s key ideas from his Quanshi liangyan and compares them with Hong’s beliefs, as found in official documents of the Taipings. The fifth chapter describes Hong’s beliefs and the actual practices of the Taiping Movement and compares them with Liang’s key ideas.

  • Real Lives of Real Missionaries QA
    www.chinasource.org “Real Lives of Real Missionaries” A Webinar on the Life and Ministry of Timothy Richard By Andrew T. Kaiser, PhD April 30, 2020 Responses to Attendee Questions 1. Why does everyone know about Hudson Taylor but not Timothy Richard? My impression is that Richard's insights regarding culture and identification, etc. are familiar to academic missiology, but they are still foreign to much (most?) ground-level mission work; most practitioners don't seem to display much awareness of these principles. How can we as fellow practitioners (non-academics) make a positive, constructive contribution in this area? It is hard to answer for certain, but I suspect the relative decline of Richard’s Baptist Missionary Society (BMS) in the wake of World War II contributed to the fading of Richard’s legacy, while Taylor’s China Inland Mission (CIM) managed to grow and expand internationally (crucially, with bases in North America and Asia) as the Overseas Missionary Fellowship, thus preserving the Taylor family legacy. The heavy emphasis that both Richard and Taylor placed on the local context deserves to be communicated afresh to new generations of global Christians. Rigorous, honest study and engaging writing are necessary if we are to learn from the past, however this is no substitute for real-life modelling of sound principles. There is something compelling about a person or a family who is living cross-culturally in such a way that their shift in priorities—their cross-cultural identification—is obvious, and can be seen in the habits and relationships that define their daily life and witness.
