ET: Report about mission.

This report (KA 184) applies Reformed principles to missionary work. The report contains three main chapters: (1) the principles of missionary work (pp. [1]–12); (2) the regulations for missionary work (pp. [1]–5); and (3) a concrete proposal for the future of Reformed missionary work (pp. [1]–2).

The Synod of Middelburg named a commission of pre-advisers, to which Kuyper was nominated, and requested that this commission submit a sketch of principles and an outline of Reformed missionary work while the synod was still in session (see 1897.01). In a few days time the Rapport inzake de Zending was composed, printed, and submitted. During the sessions of September 1 and 3, 1896, with Kuyper serving as secretary, the report was discussed and accepted. Kuyper had once again laid out the lines for missionary activity in the Reformed Churches in the Netherlands (cf. 1890.05).
