Abstract

Chapter 2 describes how Paul Rusch, in the face of rising militarism in Japan and increasing anti-Japanese sentiment in America, held fast to his belief that war could be averted through prayer and promoting Christianity in Japan. Despite a growing anti-Western movement in Japan, Rusch worked to establish Seisen-Ryo, a Christian training camp near Kiyosato. With the patronage of the heiress Miki Sawada, with whom it is rumored Rusch had a romantic relationship, Rusch managed to complete his task despite formidable obstacles. Rusch ran afoul of the American church mission when he took a propaganda tour of Japanese-occupied areas of China and Manchuria. Rusch was labeled an apologist for Japan’s expansionist policies, drawing criticism and ridicule from the press. U.S. Ambassador to Japan Joseph Grew tried to warn Rusch against being an advocate for Japan, but Rusch publicly maintained the United States did not understand Japan’s intentions. Later, when the Episcopal Church withdrew its entire missionary delegation from Japan, Rusch defiantly stayed in Tokyo. Days after Pearl Harbor was attacked, Rusch and many of his friends were arrested by Japanese police.
和平运动
第二章描述了保罗·拉什在面对日本军国主义抬头和美国反日情绪高涨的情况下,如何坚持自己的信念,即通过祈祷和在日本推广基督教可以避免战争。尽管日本的反西方运动日益高涨,但拉什还是努力在清佐藤附近建立了基督教训练营“震亮”(Seisen-Ryo)。在女继承人Sawada Miki的支持下,Rusch克服了巨大的障碍完成了他的任务,据传Rusch和Miki Sawada有一段浪漫的关系。当拉什到日本占领的中国和满洲进行宣传时,他与美国教会的使命发生了冲突。拉什被贴上了日本扩张主义政策的辩护者的标签,招致了媒体的批评和嘲笑。美国驻日大使约瑟夫·格鲁试图警告拉什不要成为日本的拥护者,但拉什公开坚称美国不理解日本的意图。后来,当美国圣公会(Episcopal Church)从日本撤出其整个传教代表团时,拉施毅然留在了东京。珍珠港事件发生几天后,拉什和他的许多朋友被日本警方逮捕。
