Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Scriptural View: Of the Moral Relations of African Slavery If the relation of slavery, as it now exists in the Southern' States, is susceptible of defence by the word of God, the relation must be a moral relation. If it is not, it ought to be abandoned. It is to the: law and to the testimony we must appeal for the defence and government of every relation in life. _if we do not speak and act agreeably thereto, it is because there is no truth in us. I will, with all due diligence, and with humble dependence on Divine aid, search the Scriptures with a view to learn what they say and teach, as to this much-litigated question.

Download or read book Bible View of Slavery by John H Hopkins Bishop of the Diocese of Vermont Classic Reprint written by Henry Drisler and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bible View of Slavery, by John H. Hopkins, Bishop of the Diocese of Vermont Testaments, which, as the written word of God, afford the only infallible standard of moral rights and obligations: " "and thus [by the Southern slaves becoming Christianized through slavery] the wisdom and goodness of God are vindicated in the sanction which his Word has given, and the sentence originally passed upon Canaan, as a curse, has been converted into a blessing" (p.16);and again: "Under the rule of the Scriptures and the Constitution of the United States, the negro belongs to an inferior race, which the law did not presume to be fitted for freedom at any age" (p.12); and finally: "God, in his wisdom and providence, caused the patriarch Noah to predict that he [the negro] should be the servant of servants to the posterity of Japhet (p.12). This, then, is the proposition, that the negro slavery of the Southern States is justified by Holy Scripture. In the examination of the writer's arguments, therefore, we have nothing to do directly with Hebrew slavery, or Greek slavery, or Roman slavery, or any other system than that now in force in the slaveholding states of the Union. The writer divides his arguments into two main heads, those from the Old Testament and those from the New Testament Scriptures. The most of these have necessarily nothing to do with the subject under discussion, as they relate exclusively to the special enactments for the regulation of the Hebrew social system. By way of introduction the writer asserts that "Slavery appears to have existed in all the ages of our world, by the universal evidence of history, whether sacred or profane." It may be sufficient to set over against this, the assertion of one certainly not less eminent in the church than the author of the pamphlet before us. St. Chrysostom says: "But if you ask whence slavery has its origin, and why it has entered into human life, for I know that many readily ask and are desirous of learning such things, I will tell you; avarice, vulgar display, and insatiable cupidity, begat slavery; since Noah had no slave, Abel had no slave, nor Seth, nor yet those after this;" (Hom. in Epist. ad Ephes.22.)

This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Scriptural Examination of the Institution of Slavery in the United States: With Its Objects and Purposes We have not undertaken to write the general history of slavery, nor the history of slavery in the United States; the extent of our undertaking is, to show the purposes for which African slavery was instituted, in so far as the United States stand connected with it. There are two propositions of essential importance, and which never must be lost sight of, in the investigation of this subject, to wit: 1. African slavery is a punishment, inflicted upon the enslaved, for their wickedness. - The proper understanding of this proposition requires that we should keep steadily before the mind the fact, that nations, communities, peoples, may and do sin against God, as well as individuals; and nations, communities, peoples, are punishable and punished, as well as individuals. The only difference is this: individuals may escape punishment; they often do, in this world: their punishment may be postponed to the day of judgment; but nations, communities, peoples, must be punished in this world, for they cannot, as such, be brought into the judgment of the great day. 2. Slavery, as it exists in the United States, is the Providentially-arranged means whereby Africa is to be lifted from her deep degradation, to a state of civil and religious liberty.

Download or read book Dissertation on Servitude written by Leicester A. Sawyer and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dissertation on Servitude: Embracing an Examination of the Scripture Doctrines on the Subject, and an Inquiry Into the Character and Relations of Slavery The following Dissertation is devoted to an extensive subject, and one of great practical importance. Servitude occupies a prominent place in the Scriptures, and is illustrated by a great variety of Scripture precepts and examples. It enters into several of the most important institutions of civilized and Christian society, and opens a field for investigation, pertaining to the deepest principles of morality and religion. This subject in all its branches is now brought into discussion, by the existing excitement in relation to slavery. The advocates and apologists for slavery, are examining it for the purpose of fortifying their positions and maintaining more effectually their tottering cause. The opposers of slavery are examining it for the opposite purpose; namely, that of assailing more effectually the object of their opposition. This subject, therefore, is one of interest to all classes of persons. The order pursued in this Dissertation, has appeared to the writer to possess several important advantages. It follows the divine communications on this subject, beginning with the earliest, and proceeding regularly to the latest. On leaving them, it proceeds naturally from the more simple to the more complicated and difficult topics of inquiry. Whatever may have been his success, the writer has sought diligently and honestly for the truth, in respect to the Scripture examples of servitude. and the doctrines they inculcate on this subject.
