September 4, 1832, Missionary Robert Morrison reported to the society that Liang (A)fa's The Benevolent Words to Advise the World was published. Liang is the first Chinese pastor and the first Chinese journalist. He helped Morrison to translate the Bible and to compile the earliest Chinese-English dictionaries. He published several journals and pamphlets to advocate Christianity. For example, The Benevolent Words to Advise the World later stimulated Hong Xiuquan to launch the Taiping Rebellion.
