Foe some time the blessed Holy Spirit has prompted me to write the following book, yea, it came upon me as an inspiration : so that I was compelled to write or disobey. It has seemed to me that the wonderful facts of the history of William Taylor ought to be put on permanent record. For years I have been gathering material for the same. Years ago I wrote a sketch of his life. This book will give a concise and somewhat complete account of his marvellous life and extensive travels ; and of his great African mission ; it will also tend to provoke the zeal and self-sacrifice of others. I write also to show how wonderfully his self-sustaining or Pauline method of support has been established ; and also to show that this method by no means supersedes or dis- parages the work of the Missionary Society. Nay, verily ! but it supplements and stimu- lates that work. And, as I am not an interested party, I hope to give an unprejudiced statement of facts that will be a blessing to all. I have gathered from all quarters a liberal amount of information concerning Central Africa, especially the region of the Congo, which is indeed a most promising mission field. I have given a full account of Mr. Taylor's election to the oflBce of a Bishop, and also viu. mTEODtrcnoiT. of the &cts that, in nine months after tliat election, he had gathered together nearly fifty missionaries, secured their passage money, and also money for a most liberal outfit; had traveled to Africa himself and held the Liberia Conference, and spent a month in that Republic in successful reyiyal services, and greeted his colony of mission- aries as they safely arrived in Africa, "ifter their two long ocean voyages. I write because I have the fiillest confi- dence in the success of this God-inspired and heaven-ordained mission ; notwithstand- ing all the objections that honest men have made against it. I write also because, if my many friends and those of Bishop Taylor, will posh the sale of this book, I hope to make it produce five hundred dollars for the Transit and Buil- ding Fund, after paying for the expense of making and selling the book. Will the beloved of the Lord, of all de- nominations, help in this good work? Let us work here and await our reward in heaven. I lay this book humbly at the feet of Jesus, earnestly praying for his benediction. E. Davibb. Sadtts* Retbeat, SEASIKG, HAB8., 1886. CONTENTS Page, CHAPTEB I.

The Editor does not hold herself responsible for any opinions, whether religious, • philosophical or social, expressed in signed articles. ©ur Jlhttlj Uohirn The crown of the Reformer and the Innovator is a crown of thorns L L is indeed but one eternal Now— Past, Present and Future being but “ three clumsy words”, “ miserable concepts of the objective phases of the subjective whole “ The Past time is the Present time, as also the Future, which, though it has not come into exis­ tence, still is” , say the Scriptures containing the Prasanga Madhyamika teachings. Says a M a s t e r : “ The Present is the child of the Past; the Future, the begotten of the Present. And yet, O Present Moment! knowest thou not that thou hast no parent, nor canst thou have a child; that thou art ever begetting but thyself? Before thou hast even begun to say, ‘ I am the progeny of the departed moment, the child of the Past,’ thou hast become that Past itself. Before thou utterest the last syllable, behold! thou are no more the Present, but verily that Future- Thus are the Past, the Present,, and the Future the ever-living Trinity in One— the Mahamava of the Absolute IS.” And yet though this be true, and Time but a succession of states of consciousness, we mortals are apt to note recurring anniver­ saries and tQ feel a certain thrill of remembrance or of anticipation when some date of an event, memorable as a landmark on life’s high­ way, reminds us, in howrever Mayavic garb, of what w>e call our Past.

  • The United Methodist Church Handbook
    Dear friends in Christ, Grace to you and abundant peace from God, our Creator, and the Lord Jesus Christ. The people of The United Methodist Church are part of a worldwide community with a rich Wesleyan heritage, a shared covenant and a common mission of making disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world. Indeed, the body does not consist of one member but of many (1 Corinthians 12:20). Our connection binds us together in faith and service beyond our individual congregations. We reach out locally and globally through more than 43,000 United Methodist congregations all over the world to help others and to share the good news of Christ’s saving grace. God in Christ loves us, and all of humanity, beyond measure. God’s grace is available to all. We have a shared calling to make that truth an everyday reality for all those who have yet to be invited to experience the healing balm and abundant life of God’s banquet table. We celebrate all that God is doing through The United Methodist Church. This handbook is filled with information about who we are, how we are structured and how we are living out our mission. I hope that as you read this book, it will be a helpful resource and you will see the strength that worldwide connectivity brings to the work of the church. Our prayer is that The United Methodist Church be a community where you find peace, meaning and a future with hope. In Christ’s extravagant grace, Bishop Bruce R.

  • Bishop Willia.M Taylor and Methodist Mission: a Study in Nineteenth Century Social History
    Methodist History, 27:4 (July 1989) BISHOP WILLIA.M TAYLOR AND METHODIST MISSION: A STUDY IN NINETEENTH CENTURY SOCIAL HISTORY DAVID BUNDY Part I: From Campmeeting Convert to International Evangelist The figure of William Taylor (1821-1902) is a recurring feature of the historiography of mission activity under the aegis of the Methodist Episcopal Church during the last half of the nineteenth century. Taylor was involved in missionary endeavors from 1849 when he was sent to California by Bishop Beverly Waugh until his retirement in 1896. He worked on six continents and was instrumental in the establishment of Methodist churches in Panama, Belize, Peru, Chile, Brazil, Angola, Mozambique, Zaire, and South India. He assisted the Wesleyan Methodists in Australia, South Africa and the Caribbean. During his missionary episcopacy, the struggling Methodist mission in Liberia was strengthened and expanded. Despite his frenetic and often quite successful efforts, relations with the Missionary Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church were anything but cordial. Methodist periodicals and Taylor's own publications record the continuous struggles to define and control the methods and results of missionary endeavor. Taylor and the Missionary Society viewed the con­ flict as related to missiology. It will be argued here that the conflict be­ tween Bishop William Taylor and the Methodist Missionary Society was not only a function of mission method and ecclesiological control; it was also related to the socio-religious structures ofTaylor's life and to the socio­ religious transitions within Methodism during the second half ofthe nine­ teenthcentury. Sources and Method The diaries, notebooks and collected correspondence of Bishop Taylor have not, in so far as I have been able to ascertain, survived.l Such cor­ respondence as has been preserved is scattered throughout th<fUnited States.

  • BOYZONE Til Danmark 4. August
    2011-03-24 09:50 CET BOYZONE til Danmark 4. august Eneste koncert i Danmark ved Skovrock i Aalborg BOYZONE, verdens næststørste boyband, og et af de bedst sælgende irske bands overhovedet, giver torsdag d. 4. aug. en exclusiv koncert i Skovdalen i Aalborg. Alle de største danske navne, og mange udenlandske topnavne som bl.a. Johnny Cash, Bonnie Raitt, Willie Nelson, Runrig og Brian Wilson har tidligere stået på Danmarks største faste udendørs scene i Skovdalen. Men torsdag d. 4. aug. er der lagt op til det hidtil største scoop, når BOYZONE som det eneste sted i Danmark giver koncert i Skovdalen som et led i deres stort anlagte "Brother Tour". Turneen følger op på deres album "Brother" fra sidste år, der er en hyldest til det afdøde bandmedlem Stephen Gately, der pludselig døde i oktober 2009. I februar og marts har Boyzone turneret i England og Irland, en tur der bl.a. har fyldt så store steder som "Wembley Arena" og "The O2" i London, og som har givet fantastiske anmeldelser til de 4 medlemmer Ronan Keating, Mikey Graham, Keith Duffy og Shane Lynch og deres stort anlagte shows. Boyzone har siden starten i 1993 skabt utallige hits, bl.a. ikke færre end 6 nummer 1 hits i UK og 9 nr. 1 hits i Irland. Og sætlisten fra koncerterne i London lover særdeles godt. Flere af bandets medlemmer har sideløbende med Boyzone solokarrierer kørende. Med størst succes Ronan Keating, der var vært for Eurovision Song Contest 1998, hvor Boyzone også optrådte. I 2009 vandt han Dansk Melodi Grand Prix med "Believe Again" sunget af Brinck.

According to the campus newspaper The Daily Titan , Yiannopoulous was paid around $17,000 for his one-hour speech. But the real price tag of the evening event would have to include costs to the univer - sity and taxpayers for extra law enforce - ment deemed necessary due to riots which have broken out at his previous speeches on other college campuses. These incidents have ranged in cost from over $75,000 for 124 officers at his appearance at University of Washington in January to over $800,000 for his 15- minute walk through UC Berkeley in September. Many colleges have canceled his appearances citing the overwhelming security costs involved.
