Slavery Ordained Of God

Slavery Ordained Of God is a book written by Reverend Fred A. Ross. The book explores the religious justification of slavery in the United States during the 19th century. Ross argues that slavery was not only a legal and economic institution, but also a religious one, ordained by God. He draws upon biblical passages and interpretations to support his claims, and argues that slavery was a necessary part of God's plan for the world. The book provides insight into the religious beliefs and attitudes towards slavery during a time of great social and political upheaval in the United States.Sir, you have left out the very idea which contains the sense of that Scripture. It is this: Christ, in his rule, presupposes that the man to whom he gives it knows, and from the Bible, (or providence, or natural conscience, so far as in harmony with the Bible, ) the various relations in which God has placed him; and the respective duties in those relations; i.e. The rule assumes that he KNOWS what he OUGHT to expect or desire in similar circumstances.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
