Beckoning Us On

By J. S. James

J. S. JAMES

The unentered, unwarned fields stand as a defiant challenge to every believer in Christ. Their ever swelling call for help is the basis of a mighty inspiration to the onward marching ranks of God's victorious people.

In South India, a glorious beginning has been made; but large fields lie yet unentered before us, and many openings call loudly for the establishment of other beacons of light. The great nation of Telugus, numbering over twenty millions, have only just begun to hear the good news; and there is the great native state of Mysore, with ten millions who speak the Kanarese language. Nearly all are Hindus, and many are followers of the false prophet. Other great unworked sections in India beckon us on.

We must have true missionaries — not one or two only, but many — to locate among these people, to learn their languages, develop a message-filled literature, establish dispensaries, and conduct schools. These fields all call to you for help in men and means. How long before the call shall be answered?
