Note 170 — Chapter XIX · JAPANESE CHRISTENDOM
Reading edition
It is no small matter for encouragement to Christian workers in Japan that it is now possible to find among Japanese Christians three generations of believers; so that the words of Paul in 2 Timothy i. 5 may be applied here: “Having been reminded of the unfeigned faith that is in thee; which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois and thy mother Eunice.” The future of Christianity in Japan is insured when it begins to be inherited.
