Description
Excerpt from Old Wang, the First Chinese Evangelist in Manchuria: A Sketch of His Life and Work, With a Chapter Upon Native Agency in Chinese Missions
The Chinese Evangelist Wang Jingming died on the mission premises in Mookden, Manchuria, on September 24th, 1885. Having been the first mem ber baptized, the first preacher set apart, and the first elder ordained by the writer, his life and ex periences, even if of an ordinary kind, could not fail to be interesting to me personally. But as he may be called the virtual founder of Protestant Christianity in that extensive country known as Manchuria, it is believed that a sketch of his life, and some of the circumstances connected with his work, may be not merely worthy of passing notice, but deserving the interested attention and the careful study of all who are anxious to discover the best and speediest manner in which Christianity may be successfully proclaimed to the inaccessible millions of China.
