Excerpt from A Sermon on Slavery: A Vindication of the Methodist Church, South; Her Position Stated; Delivered in Temperance Hall, in Knoxville, on Sabbath, August 9th, 1857, to the Delegates and Others in Attendance at the Southern Commercial Convention
N ow, the inquiry is, how has slavery risen and spread over our whole earth? We answer, by the laws of war, the state of property, the feebleness of governments, the thirst for bargain and sale, the increase of crime, and last, but not least, by and with the consent and approbation of Deity!

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the complex history of slavery in the United States, arguing that it was not only sanctioned by law but also by religious authority. The author contends that the Bible has been used to justify the enslavement of Africans, and that this justification has been used to legitimize slavery in the United States for centuries. The book traces the origins of slavery in the United States back to the founding of the country, and examines the role that slavery played in the development of the nation. It also explores the abolitionist movement and the Civil War, and discusses the legacy of slavery in the United States today. This book is a timely examination of a complex and controversial topic, and it offers a fresh perspective on the history of slavery in the United States.
