Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Sermon, Delivered at the Meeting House of the Second Parish in Portland, August 20, 1812: On the Occasion of the National Fast And Abraham said unto Lot, let there be. No strife, I pray t7zee, between me and thee, and between my herd men and My herdmen fbr we be brethren. Ever since the apostasy of man the world has pre, eented a scene of disorder and ruin. The lawless and ungovernable passions of the human heart have burst forth in the eigpressions of eontengion and war -so that a his tory of our race has been little better than a register of the blackest crimes Even the first descendant of our prim itive parents raised the Weapon of death, and precipitated his brother prematurely to the grave Pride, ambition and a desire of gain have multiplied the causes of context. Tion, and spread devastation and misery over the whole face of the earth. Princes, and other rulers, have some times wantonly sported with human blood, and stained the records of heaven with crimes which fallen angels, never committed. This was the case in those wars which are recorded on the pages of the Grecian and Roman his tories -and the same disposition is discoverable in those violent contests which have, in modern times, converted the whole continent of Europe into a field of slaughter and blood War i geertainly one of the sorest judgments with which a nation can be visited -1-and in this light it has always been considered by every man who is under the influence of the s irit of the gospel. The religion of the bible inculcates Iihc dispositions of unanimity and peace. A part of the anthem sung by the angels of heaven at the advent of the Saviour, was glory to'god in the highest, and on earth peace, good will to'ward men. This disposition is strongly inculcated in every part of the Bible. If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peacably with all men. And we hove a practical hius= tration of this precept in the words of our text. A con. Test had arisen between the domestics of Abraham and Lot, which was happily adjusted by the interposition of, the pious and illustrious patriarch. His reasoning breathes the spirit of mildness and love. Let there be no strife, I pray'thee, between me and'thee, 'and between my herd; men and thy herdmen for we be brethren.

Download or read book Gospel of Disunion written by Mitchell Snay and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2014-02-01 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The centrality of religion in the life of the Old South, the strongly religious nature of the sectional controversy over slavery, and the close affinity between religion and antebellum American nationalism all point toward the need to explore the role of religion in the development of southern sectionalism. In Gospel of Disunion Mitchell Snay examines the various ways in which religion adapted to and influenced the development of a distinctive southern culture and politics before the Civil War, adding depth and form to the movement that culminated in secession. From the abolitionist crisis of 1835 through the formation of the Confederacy in 1861, Snay shows how religion worked as an active agent in translating the sectional conflict into a struggle of the highest moral significance. At the same time, the slavery controversy sectionalized southern religion, creating separate institutions and driving theology further toward orthodoxy. By establishing a biblical sanction for slavery, developing a slaveholding ethic for Christian masters, and demonstrating the viability of separation from the North through the denominational schisms of the 1830s and 1840s, religion reinforced central elements in southern political culture and contributed to a moral consensus that made secession possible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Union National Fast Day Sermon: Delivered in the United Presbyterian Church, Gettysburg, P. A., Friday, January 4, A. D. 1861 This is a very solemn occasion which brings us of various creeds and parties together in this holy temple. God the Father Almighty is to be worshipped through Jesus Christ his Son our Lord, in beseem ing devotions, in View of the troubled and threaten ing aspect of our national affairs. An inward consciousness guided by the teachings of Holy Writ has brought us, as a people, to make humble recognition of the Divine Sovereignty, that the Lord, who is God, visits individuals and nations with His just judgments for their sins; that to those who fear His name, He is both merciful and good. And from thousands of christian altars, when Sab bath worship fills the Sanctuary, prayers have been ascending to God, and daily prayers from millions of pious hearts, in behalf of our Country in this hour of her extremity. But as a nation we are dismayed; as a nation then we must acknowledge our sins, and by fasting and prayer sue for pardon, and that direction which will bring deliverance from present dangers. Such hum blings under the mighty hand of God and such plead ings are suggested not only by the biblical page, but also by incidents in our own past history. During the revolutionary struggle when hope seem ed to fail, and unnerving destitution stared the soldi ery, the Revolutionary Congress appointed a season to be observed in fasting and prayer.
