To preach Christ crucified as the grand means of conversions. To esteem and treat Indians always as equals. To be instant in the nurture of personal religion. To cultivate the spiritual gifts of the Indian brethren, ever pressing upon them their missionary obligation, since only Indians can win India for Christ.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6399</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are the children of a technological age.
