Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Slavery in the United States: Sermon Delivered in Amory Hall, on Thanksgiving Day, November 24, 1842 "Remember them that are in bonds as bound with them." I take for the subject of my discourse to-day an important matter, and one concerning which I have not before spoken to you, and one which I think should be sometimes treated, namely, "Slavery in the United States. Its evils. Its sinfulness. Our duties concerning it." "But what has this to do with thanksgiving?" you will say. Perhaps it may be a good way of thanking God for the mercies he has bestowed upon us, to remember those to whom they are denied. We may thank God in various ways, and not merely by recounting his mercies, and glorifying his goodness to ourselves. "Herein is my Father glorified that ye bear much fruit." The most acceptable fruit to God, is love to our brethren; the most genuine form which gratitude to God can take is a deep sympathy with all God´s creatures; the surest way of proving that we recognize thankfully the blessing of Christianity, is to show that we have received its spirit, - a spirit which binds us in brotherhood with all men, whether Jew or Samaritan, bond or free.
