There is indeed a way of judging the zeal of native Christians for the propagation of the Gospel very popular among missionaries, the way of tabulating and comparing the amount which they subscribe for missionary work.  Obviously this method is the form most natural to us, but it is one of the worst conceivable.  When a Christian congregation lives surrounded by heathen, for it to learn to satisfy the divine spirit of missions by putting money into a box, is most dangerous.  The zeal of Christians for the spread of the Gospel ought always to be expressed first in active personal service.  We should prefer to omit any question as to the amount subscribed for missionary work far off.  We believe it to be a most delusive and deluding test.  It deceives the giver, it deceives the inquirer.  We should prefer to inquire the number of hearers or inquirers brought to the Church by the undirected effort of the Church members, or the number of Church members who go out to teach or preach in their neighbourhood, or perhaps best of all, the number of little Christian congregations which as a body are actively engaged in evangelising their neighbours.  But we admit missionary contributions as an additional question
