The Gospel for Africa

THERE is a great work to be done in Africa before that dark continent shall have been lighted with the glory of the gospel. It is even stated that the tenets of Mohammed are being extensively spread among the tribes of the interior. A veteran German missionary gives rather a startling view of the situation:—
Among the heathen on the coast, in so far as Christianity is known, there seems to be little danger of Islam gaining further ground. But in the heart of Africa the Moslem missionary is doing most effective work, and when these districts become better known, Christians will probably be amazed and deeply saddened by what they will see to be the condition of affairs.
Only such a gospel as Paul preached, and which won so many converts throughout Asia, can meet and conquer the opposing forces in Africa.
