His many publications included A History of Christian Missions, The Interpretation of the New Testament, 1861-1961, and the never-completed History of Christianity in India.

'This succinct study of the theology of the New Testament writers, based on extensive and uo-to-date reading, will be useful to many students without Greek or detailed knowledge of modern scholarship. . . . Bishop Neill nearly always states fairly the main alternative views and has succeeded admirably in his purpose.' L.A. Garrard, in The Journal of Theological Studies, vol. 28, issue 2, October 1977
