Society: In spite of the diversity and mutual exclusiveness between the numerous people groups and castes, the social life offers unusual freedom to all. People from all backgrounds freely interact with each other in educational institutions, business establishments, and government offices. Mass public transportation brings all people together without segregation. This harmony within diversity is highly helpful in approaching the Indians with the teachings of Christ, based upon the love of God.

Satan Worship Rising in Mizoram
Mizoram, the Indian state where most of the population are Christians, is witnessing alarming growth of Satan worshipers. Several incidents of burnt Bibles, vandalized churches and defiled cemeteries are reported from here. Few months ago some youths were caught filming semi-nude inside a non-functional church on the outskirts of Aizawl, the capital city. According to a survey conducted by a local weekly, more than hundred Satan worshipers are found in the state. It has been proved often that when people choose to resist the truth of the word of God they are forced to follow the false hood of devil. (gracepeaceu@yahoo.com)

India: An Introduction By Dr. Johnson C. Philip
India is a great country and is totally different from any other nation in the world. It is world’s second most populous country teaming with over 1050 million people. It is one nation in name, but it is also an agglomeration of nations. It is many countries in a harmonious one, and one country with a cacophony of many countries.
The Indus region has always been a fertile, technologically advanced, and highly literate region of the world. It is mentioned twice in the book of Esther, and was known to the Jews a thousand years before that and many kings in the Bible presumably had business links that extended via sea up to India. The abundance of rivers and fertile land made people in Indus region to spread around and settle everywhere. Gradually these settlements developed into autonomous kingdoms each with their own language, culture and custom. Eventually even these multiplied within individual kingdoms into many more sub-languages and subcultures.
