MISSIONARY ENCOURAGEMENT 1798 (WILLIAM STAUGHTON) 2

[ed. We continue with the long-winded lecture to beg for money and we will show how things have not changed even today with modern missionary societies.  We will now continue translating Mr. Staughton's new school gibberish into a meaningful translation for the children of God.]

MISSIONARY ENCOURAGEMENT 1798 (WILLIAM STAUGHTON) 1

[ed. This is yet another "missionary" lecture defending missionary societies and modern missionaries.  We wonder if such things were so utterly biblical, why were they so much defended?  They should have been obvious to all!  Nevertheless, since these missionists speak in a strange tongue to the followers of Jesus, we will translate their words into the proper language that the children of God can clearly understand.]

CIRCULAR LETTER OF 1806 (WILLIAM ROGERS)

[We reprint this circular letter from William Rogers to show the direction the Philadelphia Association was headed in by the beginning of the 19th century on the subject of missions, which brought about the split among Baptists.]
