Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From its foundation in the United States until the year 1800, Methodism had testified against slavery as a moral evil. As slavery disputes intensified in the 19th century, there emerged two doctrines within the Methodist Church. Churches in the South were primarily proslavery, while northern churches started antislavery movements. The antislavery movement in northern churches strengthened and solidified in response to the pro-slavery apologia of Southern churches.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Methodist Episcopal Church and Slavery: A Historical Survey of the Relation of the Early Methodists to Slavery IN this historical survey, I purpose to prove that the Methodist Epis copal Church was founded on a non Slaveholding basis. That it never was the intention of her founders that Slavery should have been continued in her communion; and that all the Slaveholding which has ever been in our Church, has been in contravention to the spirit and design of her organic law. In doing this, I shall mainly depend on documentary testimony. Oral testimony is about wholly lost. The reaction which has been setting back upon our Church for the last thirty-five years, has been inimical to its transmission. A few items, however, have been preserved. During several years' residence in the South, and while in charge of four large circuits, the author has not only seen the working of the slave system, but has been enabled to glean from those of a former generation, some precious items of our early history, in regard to Slavery. The object of this composition is a defence of our fathers, and of the Church which they founded, against the reproach which has been cast upon both, not only by their open enemies, but also by their reputed but mistaken sons - especially that which has been put forth in many of the speeches of the last general conference. For as Christians, disciples of John Wesley, as American Methodists, we feel dishonored before our European brethren, and in sight of the civilized world, that the Church of our early choice, should be stigmatized as constitutionally, historically and administratively a Slaveholding Church. We readily acknowledge that the inexplicable or contradictory expletive though anti Slavery, is as often asserted, but what it means in this connection we cannot tell.

Download or read book Between Church and State written by James W. Fraser and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2016-09-15 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Looking at the difficult question of how private issues of faith can be reconciled with the very public nature of schooling, Fraser’s classic book paints a complex picture of how a multicultural society struggles to take the deep commitments of people of faith into account—including people of many different faiths and no faith. In this fully updated second edition, Fraser tackles the culture wars, adding fresh material on current battles over public funding for private religious schools. He also addresses the development of the long-simmering evolution-creationism debate and explores the tensions surrounding a discussion of religion and the accommodation of an increasingly religiously diverse American student body. Between Church and State includes new scholarship on the role of Roger Williams and William Penn in developing early American conceptions of religious liberty.

This book was released on 2018-01-10 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Present State, Prospects and Responsibilities of the Methodist Episcopal Church From the time of the outpouring of the Spirit Upon the day of Pentecost, until the exaltation of Constantine the Great, in the beginning of the fourth century, to the im perial government, Christianity had been rapidly winning its way in the midst of violent oppositions, and some times of cruel persecutions, until it finally established itself in the heart of the Roman Empire. From that in auspicious period it gradually lost much of its vital principles, by accommodating itself to the maxims of the world, and paying obeisance to civil rulers, and seek ing to shape itself according to the political views of men invested with temporal power. It continued its retrograde motion until finally it degenerated into a strange plant, nourished in a corrupted soil. Twelve centuries of midnight darkness brooded over the Church, and so beclouded the Sun of Righteousness that his rays were scarcely perceptible, and even the stars of the firmament gave but a twinkling light, to direct the weary pilgrim in the path to life and immortality.
