Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Influence of Christianity on Government and Slavery: A Discourse, Delivered in the Baptist Church in West Boylston, Mass; January 15, 1837 The particular reasons for publishing the following Discourse would be of no interest to the public, and need not therefore be mentioned. The publication will answer the purpose intended, and that is all I desire. In justice to myself, however, I ought to say, that I have not made my first appearance before the public, a youth and unknown, in a sermon prepared in the ordinary course of my ministrations, and which I had supposed would be, as soon as delivered, laid by for no future use, without the concurrent opinion of judicious friends. I gave notice to my congregation, sometime since, that I intended to preach a series of Discourses on the "Influence of Christianity on the external life of man," as furnishing evidence of the truth of our Religion; and this was the second of the series. If it be objected that Government and Slavery are too distinct topics for the same discourse, I have therefore to reply, that they are only parts of a general subject. The lengthy quotations from a number of writers, I made because I thought that their names and their language, uttered in the progress of delivery, would make a better impression than the same facts stated in my own words.
