Who is he, shared the word of God to 1,70,000 people in South India during the period 1656 to 1706? Who is he made 1, 70,000 to know the living God, made them to know the TRUTH?




Roberto de Nobili ( Ref : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roberto_de_Nobili )




The methodology Reobert de nobili used may be a topic for debate for people like Arun Shourie who cannot accept the TRUTH. The fact is the people with wisdom can understand the the TRUTH and follow it. They followed. Robert De nobili mastered Sanskrit and Tamil, two languages and authred books. He was able to convince the orthodox Brahmin priests too.




Thanks to Nobili for his mission at South Indai. May our Lord Jesus award Nobili.
