Utilizing a didactic style interspersed with passionate rhetoric, Carey engages with scriptural texts and theological arguments to highlight the moral imperative for Christians to actively seek the salvation of non-believers. Written during the late 18th century, a period marked by the Enlightenment and the rise of humanitarian movements, this work situates itself within the broader discourse on imperialism and moral responsibility in a rapidly changing world. William Carey, often dubbed the father of modern missions, was deeply influenced by the socio-political and religious tensions of his time. His background as a shoemaker with a profound commitment to education and global evangelism galvanized him to articulate the theological foundations for overseas missionary work. His personal experiences in India and his observations of cultural diversity underscored the urgency behind his inquiry, illuminating both the ethical and practical dimensions of Christian outreach. Readers drawn to theological discourse and social justice will find Careys work both enlightening and challenging. It offers invaluable insights into the historical and moral contexts of missionary efforts while encouraging a reevaluation of ones convictions regarding faith and action. This book is essential for anyone seeking to explore the intersection of faith and cultural engagement.</p>...949598An Enquiry into the Obligations of Christians to Use Means for the Conversion of the Heathens4545https://www.gandhi.com.mx/an-enquiry-into-the-obligations-of-christians-to-use-means-for-the-conversion-of-the-heathens/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/212152/0f59c2a3-0be3-458e-9754-6944245e5f95.jpg?v=638444650275530000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20228596547061434_W3siaWQiOiI4ODU5MjhjMi02YmE0LTQ0YzYtOGU2Zi1iMjI2OGVjYTdkZTIiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjQ1LCJkaXNjb3VudCI6MCwic2VsbGluZ1ByaWNlIjo0NSwiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjUtMDItMDFUMDU6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d8596547061434_<p>An Enquiry into the Obligations of Christians to Use Means for the Conversion of the Heathens by William Carey became an important piece of religious literature for Protestant missionaries who aimed to teach their faith and convert people in colonized countries across the globe.
