Prop. XVI. Those that have the forementioned truths revealed to them with hearing the Gospel, are bound in all reason for the safety of their Souls, to use all possible diligence to make a fuller discovery; which is not likely that any Indians or others have done: Had they been as diligent in improving the truth received till they had been civilized, and then in sending to all others for information where there was a probability of receiving information even ⟨p. 471⟩as men are diligent in trading tedious Voyages for Merchandise and Worldly Gain, it's like there is no Nation under Heaven but might have had the Gospel ere now.

And if his Death prove in vain, as to their Salvation, the fault is only in themselves, and themselves, shall they blame for ever. And this is the case of these men.
