Raymond Lull: First Missionary to the Moslems
Samuel Zwemer (1867 - 1952)

With his vast knowledge in a wide range of subjects, Raymond Lull was a Renaissance man before the time of the Renaissance. After encountering the living Christ, he desired to serve Him for the rest of his life. While the rest of the world sought to drive Muslims from the Holy Land by crusades with the sword, Lull waged his own personal crusade of love and logic to win Muslims to the gospel. As he advocated for schooling in oriental languages, undertook missionary journeys to North Africa, and eventually died a martyr's death, Raymond Lull made this his motto: he who loves not lives not; he who lives by the Life can not die. (Summary by Aletheia Charis)

FROM THE INTRODUCTION

It would be difficult to find another so competent as Dr. Zwemer to write a life of the first great missionary to the Mohammedans. For twelve years he has been working with his associates of the Arabian Mission of the Reformed Church on the eastern coast of the Arabian peninsula
and in the Turkish region northwest of the Persian Gulf. To an almost perfect com- mand of Arabic, an accurate knowledge of the Koran, untiring zeal and indomitable courage, he has added an absorbing love
for the Mohammedans, and a desire to make known to them in truth that Savior whom in their belief their prophet annuls and supersedes.

Of all the men of his century of whom we know, Raymund Lull was most possessed by the love and life of Christ, and most eager, accordingly, to share his possession with the world. The world sadly needed it; the Church scarcely less. It sets forth the greatness of Lull's character the more strikingly to see how sharply he rose above the world and Church of his day, anticipating by many centuries moral standards, intellectual conceptions, and missionary ambitions, to which we have grown only slowly since the Reformation.
