But there is one aspect in which even these
evils may be considered as marking the pro.
gresS of Christianity. This is in giving the
gospel a foOthOld in those countries, and thus
forcing respectful hearing of the Christian
preachers. But there is another aspect in
which the Europo-American civilization may
be considered almost, if not altogether
hindrance to the gospel. This will be seen
by contrast with primitive Christianity
When the aSpostles and disciples went forth
as preachers of the gospel among heather
people there was no Christian civilization
no nation was Christian. Hence, the Jew or
Gentle could not turn upon them the faults,
vices, or defects of Christian social system.
Any individual discinle Of 4 dav he
imperfect he may have been IN private con-
duct, was far above any Greek or Roman in
point of morals; so that this objection to
Christianity, SO often made now, was not
made then. The practical conclusion froH
these facts is the exhortation of Paul: "Be
ye not conformed to this world, but be ye
transformed in your minds, if you would be-
come preachers Of righteousness to dark
and depraved world.--HOn. Il. d. Mansfield,
