To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He had what men of his class commonly have, faith in God. It is not the unbeliever that, Abraham like, leaves coun- try and home and friends for an unknown land. Faith has wrought civilizations, and only faith. The world's best workers have been and must be believers. Mr. Allen was a believer in God. " I know not, " he said, " how it is with other men. " but to [ have been a man of prayer all my life. I havealways before important decisions sought guidance from God. " lie believed the ordering ...of his steps was with God. His aims were t make his labors promotive of Divine ends. I am not claiming that he did not seek his own profit in what he did ; I am not supposing that Mr. Allen was devoted to the special service of God as the early Jesuit preachers and mis- sionaries were. I am, however, very certain that it was his aim to promote on the earth the kingdom of God. For this phrase is a large one. The devoted Jesuit did not understand it fully. Perhaps not so well as the energetic, far-seeing, man of busi- ness.
