Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Natural Equality: A Sermon Before the Vermont Colonization Society, at Montpelier, October 17, 1833 That is; God has given to all men the same nature, that they may all receive and enjoy the benefits of the same gospel. These benefits are, spiritual, consisting in the eternal salvation of the soul from wickedness and misery; and temporal, consisting in the enjoyments which belong to a truly religious citizen of a free, Christian community; such a community as the principles of the gospel tend to form. The text, then, in its connexion, brings to view the fundamental doctrine of our Declaration of Independence - that "all men are created equal; endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, among which are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." As the doctrine of the existence of God lies at the foundation of all that is valuable in morals, yet, when misunderstood and misapplied, is the main instrument of inflicting upon the world all the evils of superstition, fanaticism and religious tyranny; so this doctrine of natural equality lies at the foundation of all that is valuable in the political relations of men, - and yet, when misunderstood and misapplied, is the most powerful of all political doctrines in the destruction of good and the production of evil.
