"Thus Caste sets itself up as a judge of our Saviour himself. His
command is, 'Condescend to men of low estate. Esteem others better
than yourself.' 'No,' says Caste, 'do not commune with low men:
consider yourself of high estimation. Touch not, taste not, handle
not.' Thus Caste condemns the Saviour."
Here is the testimony of Rev. Mr. Rhenius, a zealous and successful
missionary:--
"I have found Caste, both in theory and practice, to be
diametrically opposed to the Gospel, which inculcates love,
humility, and union; whereas Caste teaches the contrary. It is a
fact, in those entire congregations where Caste is allowed the
spirit of the Gospel does not enter; whereas in those from which it
is excluded we see the fruits of the Gospel spirit."
