The author argues that missions followed in the wake of the white man's dominion, not that missions approved of his ruthless exploitation, arrogant rule, and immoral influence, but history records the fact that the remarkable expansion of Christianity in modern times has been through white men who have followed the explorer, the trader and the consul. Today the white man's rule is rapidly dwindling and the one condition on which Orientals will fight for democracy is to be given it themselves. The author argues that with the passing of the white man's rule in the Orient, the white missionary may have greater difficulties after the war. At any rate, now is the testing time of the native church. The author concludes by reflecting on whether the white missionary has planted the Gospel effectively; if his methods have been Pauline and the churches he has built are truly indigenous, they will endure and carry on. The gates of hades shall not prevail against them.
