Synopsis
Excerpt from Our Task in India: Shall We Proselytise Hindus or Evangelise India?
The responsibility of England for the true Welfare and prosperity of her Indian Empire is one which is being increasingly recognised; and, as an essential part of that welfare, the responsibility of the Church of Christ for the religious well-being of our Indian brethren is being pressed upon the various branches of that Church with a growing urgency. There is, however, at the same time, a tendency on the part of an increasing section of the Church to criticise both the nature of the undertaking, and the methods which are being employed in its prosecution. A closer acquaintance with Indian religious thought on the one hand, and a more intimate knowledge of the character of missionary work on the other, coupled with a growing dissatisfaction with dog matic Christianity, are producing in the minds of many suspicions as to the necessity, and doubts I as to the wisdom of our Indian missionary enter prise, which, though not very well defined are.
