Publisher's Synopsis
""The Knowledge And Practice Of Christianity Made Easy To The Meanest Capacities: Or An Essay Towards An Instruction For The Indians"" is a book written by Thomas Wilson in 1759. The book is an attempt to provide an easy-to-understand guide to Christianity for the indigenous people of America. Wilson believed that the Native Americans were capable of understanding and practicing Christianity, but that they needed a simplified version of the religion that could be easily understood by those with limited education or language skills. The book is divided into several sections, each of which covers a different aspect of Christianity. Wilson begins by discussing the nature of God and the importance of prayer. He then goes on to explain the basics of the Christian faith, including the life and teachings of Jesus, the Ten Commandments, and the importance of living a moral life. Throughout the book, Wilson emphasizes the importance of living a virtuous life and treating others with kindness and respect. He also addresses some of the common misconceptions about Christianity that were prevalent at the time, such as the belief that Christians worship multiple gods. Overall, ""The Knowledge And Practice Of Christianity Made Easy To The Meanest Capacities: Or An Essay Towards An Instruction For The Indians"" is an important historical work that sheds light on the early efforts to spread Christianity to the indigenous people of America. It provides valuable insights into the beliefs and attitudes of the time, and offers a glimpse into the challenges faced by those who sought to bring Christianity to a new audience.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
