          Introductory Historical Sketch<\/h3>\n

          During the eighteenth century next to nothing was done by British Christians to spread the knowledge of the Gospel among the Pagan, Heathen, and Mohammedan nations of the world. Two Societies, both identified with the Church of England, were practically the only agencies which aimed at discharging this duty, and the aim of both these was limited within narrow boundaries. The Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge, formed in 1698, aimed at discharging the object proclaimed in its title chiefly by providing schools and – literature, and by subsidizing other institutions. It did not propose to employ living agents. Nevertheless, for well-nigh a century in God’s good Providence, it was led to support and, indeed, virtually to direct a Mission among the Tamils of South India, which had been instituted by Frederick IV., King of Denmark, and which was manned by Lutheran missionaries, some of them, such as Ziegenbalg and Schwartz\u2026.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
