Based on the excerpt, how did trade between the European colonizers and
indigenous peoples support the European goal of religious conversion?
First, if it be unlawful: it must be so, either in respect of the
law of God, or in regard to the laws of man. If in respect of
Gods law, (considering our primary end is to plant religion,
our secondary and subalternate ends are for the honor and
profit of our nation) I demand a resolution of this plain
question: whether it be not a determined truth, that the
Gospel should be preached, to all the world ... [in] one of
these three ways. ...
The third belongs to us, who by way of merchandizing and
trade, do buy of them the pearls of the earth, and sell to
them the pearls of heaven, which action, if it be unlawful, it
must proceed from one of these three grounds, either
because we come to them, or trade with them, or tarry and
dwell and possess part of their country against them.

B) By trading with them, indigenous peoples would be exposed to those who preached the European religion
Explanation:
It appears that the European colonizers' goal of religious conversion is supported by indigenous trade. The colonizers' stated goal is to spread the religion throughout the Americas. Their second objective is to profit from their own country. Trade, they believe, can help them achieve both. Native Americans would be exposed to European religion through trade, and Europeans would profit from the exchanges.
