Oh,
What a Tangled Web We Weave...
Hinduism Today June 2000

Claims of a global Christian plan for conversion are
routinely met with skepticism by the Indian press. For example, in the Indian
Express report of February 7, 1999, on VHP activities in the northeastern
states of India, sarcastic reference is made to a priest "who is convinced
that Christians the world over have a devious agenda in Arunachal--maybe even a
pan-Indian agenda." Anyone caring to investigate can visit a cybercafe and
log onto http://www.bethany.
com/profiles/c_code/india.html to study detailed
conversion plans for not only Arunachal Pradesh, but all of India.
At the Bethany site,
India is divided with scientific precision into 186 individual "people
groups." A long description is followed by
advice on how to convert each to Christianity. For example, under the
Hindi-speaking "people," it is stated, "They
must first be set free from bondage to millions of false gods so that they can
put their trust in Jesus. Six mission agencies are currently working among
them." After each such description, a list
of "Prayer Points" is given. Typical is the following: "Pray
against the spirits of Hinduism that are keeping the Munda-Santal [of Bihar] in
spiritual darkness."
Or visit the Native Missionary Movement of India at
www.nmmindia.org/. Their mission statement: "Our top priority is fulfilling
the 'Great Commission' [to bring the Christian gospel to every people in the
world]. We concentrate on the most unreached nucleus of people in the
world--India. Our vision is to train and support 1,000 native missionaries in
North India and plant 300 new local churches." They quote a missionary
characterizing a village: "Here the demonic forces are so real." Or
visit www.ad2000.org/utermost.
htm to read that North India is "strategically important in completing the
unfinished task of world evangelization."
Notably absent from these sites is "social
service" as an aim in India--contrary to missionaries' claim. The real goal
is conversion of men, which means the destruction of Hinduism.
