The World Debt to Christianity by William T. Ellis
Ellis argues that Christ's doctrine of love transformed civilization through education, mercy, and forgiveness. He cites prisons in Turkey and China, the spread of schooling under Christian influence, and the enduring impact of holiness. He contrasts Christian ethics with heathen systems and highlights the ongoing progress toward Christlike ideals.
