'Love with the urge in it' For forty years William Millman, known
in Congo as 'Mokili', served the people of the Yakusu area amid
trials and joys, disease, sadness, bereavements, failures,
adventures, achievements, fun, laughter, and lifelong friendships.
Missionary, teacher, self-taught medical practitioner,
administrator of a rapidly expanding Mission, project manager and
builder of houses, schools and a vast New Church that still
survives today, Mokili devoted his life to his faith and to the
people of Congo he had come to love. Mokili's daughter, Litwasi,
was born in the Congo but was brought home in 1912 at the age of
three to live with foster parents in Rochdale. In 1937 she married
James, known as Jim, Butterworth. Over the next twenty years Jim, a
committed Christian and theologian, would develop a very deep
respect for his wife's parents and a strong mutual friendship
developed. After Mokili's death in 1956 Jim determined that
Mokili's immense achievements should be recorded forever and he
commenced the intense research of this biography. In 1957 Litwasi
and Jim journeyed to Yakusu to visit Litwasi's birth place and the
scene of her parents' life work. Here they met Lititiyo whom Mokili
had first met carrying home a human leg to eat. This young chief's
son had been converted by Mokili and had become a Christian pastor.
As Mokili's friend and colleague for over thirty years, Lititiyo
was well suited to sum up for Litwasi and Jim the essence of
Mokili's service to the people of the Congo: 'Love with the urge in
it'
The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly
growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by
advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve
the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own:
digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works
in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these
high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts
are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries,
undergraduate students, and independent scholars.The Age of
Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical
understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking.
Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel
Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and
moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade.
The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and
Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a
debate that continues in the twenty-first century.++++The below
