The Gospel in North Africa: In Two Parts; Part I. History and Condition of North Africa, Part II. Mission Work in North Africa (Classic Reprint)

John M.A. Rutherfurd
4.9/5 (28786 ratings)
Description:Excerpt from The Gospel in North Africa: In Two Parts; Part I. History and Condition of North Africa, Part II. Mission Work in North Africa TO a superficial observer Mohammedanism appears to Show piety, dignity, Sobriety, sincerity, and great moral worth. But let the traveller frequent their company, and Moslems are found to be false, vicious, and grasping; do business with them, and they will unblushingly cheat and rob; fall under their power as a wife or daughter must, and they will extract all the labour and profit possible, and then the victim is cast Off like an Old shoe. While the name of God is in constant use, and prayers and fastings are practised everywhere, depravity, deceit, and heartlessness abound. Certainly there are exceptions, but the character Of the religion is even more degrading than has been described. It is essentially selfish and full of loopholes for Sin. The Mohammedan is hard to in uence or to change. Once a man becomes a Moslem, even by force, in most cases he is hopelessly lost to Christianity. Witness the Janissaries and the Mamelukes, children stolen from nominally Christian parents, forced to apostatize and then trained as Moslems, becoming the fiercest, cruellest, and most fanatical tools of Islam against the faith Of Christ. Let it not be supposed that nations conquered and compelled at the point Of the sword to accept Mohammedanism may be easily won back to the truth. The descent of Avernus, says Virgil, is easy, but to retrace one's steps and regain the higher air, this is the labour, this is the task.
