Excerpt from Slavery Sanctioned by the Bible: The First Part of a General Treatise on the Slavery QuestionHas it ever struck you, my clerical friends, that possibly, only possibly - but the merest possibility is enough to make the stout heart quake - possibly your conscience, in regard to slavery, may be erroneous? Possibly you may have mistaken the law of God and the Spirit and principle of the Gospel? If I can rouse you to this possibility, and lead you to search the Scriptures faithfully and prayerfully for the mind and will of Christ, I shall have done a good work in the Master's service.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
