Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Sinfulness of Colonial Slavery: A Lecture, Delivered at the Monthly Meeting of Congregational Ministers and Churches The subject proposed for consideration is the sinfulness of neglecting to promote the immediate extinction of Colonial Slavery. If slavery be an unrighteous usurpation, it is evidently the duty of all Christians, as they shall answer at the bar of God, to employ every proper means in effecting its entire abolition. The guilt of neglecting this duty is proportionate to the evil of the system. It is my intention, this morning, to show that British Colonial Slavery is so enormously criminal as to justify the application of the awful considerations of this passage to all Christians, who are not strenuously engaged in removing this weight of national guilt If, as we are told by those more immediately interested, it is the sin, not so much of themselves as of the whole nation, then these declarations become still more awful; and a louder emphasis is given to every word, as it is addressed, not only to the negligent, but to the participants in crime. "If thou forbear to deliver them that are drawn unto death, and those that are ready to be slain; if thou sayest. Behold, we knew it ¬ doth not he that pondereth the heart consider it? and he that keepeth thy soul, doth not he know it? and shall not he render to every man according to his works?" "God created man upright, but he hath sought out many inventions." One of his earliest was the oppression of the feeble by the strong. No section of his race, no era of his existence, no spot of the globe on which he dwells, has been free from the infliction and the endurance of injury.
