HINTS TO THOSE
WHO ASK,
WHY SHOULD I CONTRIBUTE TO SUPPORT MISSIONS TO
THE HEATHEN?
What are the objects of such missions? Are they not to make known the glorious Gospel of the blessed God; to institute Christian Schools; to erect places of Christian worship; to collect Christian societies; and thus to banish Pagan ignorance, Pagan vices, and Pagan cruelties, from the earth?
