Tracing the evolution of the principle of toleration and of the status of the convert has necessitated a somewhat lengthy digression: to return to the growth and development of Protestant missions in China-although from the first adventurous pioneers had journeyed up and down the coast (the voyages of Gutzlaff in this way are historie), it was not until after the Treaty of Tientsin that any missionaries resided away from the Treaty ports. Even as late as 1966 there were in the whole of China only 16 residential Protestant mission stations, and of the only three- a station of the American Presbyterian Mission at Teng

The effect of Leang Ab-fah's tracts on Hung Hsinchuan is perhaps an extrenie case, but the influence of the Bible (albeit in a distorted form) was apparent in many phases of the Taiping rebellion and it was this fact that accounted for the sympathy that it received in its early days, from many Protestant missionarios. In its inception the rebellion showed many signs of the result of a partial knowledge of the Bible and in particular of the Old Testament Idols were destroyed and a Sabbath insti- tuted; later, we find that in his reform programme Hung Jên (the “Shield King") included drastic educational changes--the Confucior classics were to be abolished and the Chinese translation of the Bible substituted for them as the staple of education The Bible (Gutzlaff's transla- tiou) again was officially published and circulated by the Taipings, the words A new edition issued by the Celestial Dynasty of Taiping in the thing yær of his reign" appearing on the title page, while each book was emblazoned with these expected to arrive here on the 17th The A.0.
