The correct answer is B. Believe in the God of the Bible

Explanation:

The word "heathens" refers to people who are not part of the main religion, this implies heathens might have their own religion or system of religious beliefs, but these are not shared by the majority. Additionally, this term is usually used to classify those who are not part of Christianity but part of other minor religions. In the case of the European colonist, the use the word heathens to refer to Native Indians and even to African slaves during the colonization period in the 17th century as they did not share the beliefs of European colonists and the term also show Indians and Africans were inferior and even when they tried to be part of the major religions there were still some differences between them. Thus, the colonist used this term because natives did not believe in the God of the Bible, but in other gods that colonists consider different and minor.
