a brotherhood men of all confessions without requiring them to abjure . 宗派の信者達は 信仰を捨てる事を 潔しとしない
the missionaries could continue their activities in japan , actually in the way that their activities were overlooked , and the japanese who became christian did not officially forced to abjure their religion . 黙認という形ではあったが宣教師たちは日本で活動を続けることができたし、キリシタンとなった日本人が公に棄教を迫られる事はなかった。
