Excerpt from Historical Sketch of the Ceylon MissionThis idea of justification by works of merit produces among them, as every where else, hatred to Christ and the free salvation which he offers. They often say to the missionary, Preach to us about the one true God we are willing to hear that, but don't talk to us about Christ. Their ideas of the future life and of fate, their belief that a man is safe in any religion if he is only sincere, and their system of caste, dividing the people into clans hating and scowling defiance at each other, make efforts for their salvation peculiarly discouraging.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
