Excerpt from Objections Obviated, and God Glorified, by the Success of the Gospel Among the Heathen: A Sermon Preached at Albany, N. Y., Oct. 7, 1829, at the Twentieth Annual Meeting of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions

As the apostle Peter silenced all objections to his entrance among the gentiles, by a simple statement of facts, in humble imitation of his example, l would re fer to the well-known facts which have occurred in our times, relative to the happy change produced by the Gospel in the temporal condition of some of the most wretched of our race. Let the objector impar tially consider the melioration of condition in degrad ed Africans, rescued from slave-shipsz - let him ponder the wonderful progress of civilization and good moral habits among the Hottentots, the Caffres, the inhabit ants of the Society and Sandwich Islands, and also among our Cherokees and Choctaws; and he will never be disposed again to bring forward this objec tion.
