Excerpt from Slavery, Its Origin, Nature and History: Its Relations to Society, to Government, and to True Religion, to Human Happiness and Divine Glory; Considered in the Light of Bible Teachings, Moral Justice, and Political Wisdom Question. Is the citizen who owes allegiance to the state for life, as properly a slave to the state for life, as the African, who owes service, or labor to his master for life Answer. Certainly, he is as much a slave to the state, though he be called a free man. The state subjects men while within her jurisdiction to her control, and claims a right to-their service in wha'ts rer form she may in her sovereignty, be pleased to call for it; so the master subjects his slave to his control, and claims a right to his service in whatever form he may call for it. But is not this service or labor to the state, and this subjection to her authority, all voluntary on the part of the white race? An swer. It is not more voluntary with the white minor, and the female half of the white race, than with the black slave. Both 'may quietly submit to it, while neither may like it. The white minor and the black slave are both born equally subject to absolute control without their consent. Both are born in a state of domestic bondage, one for life, to his master, the other for twenty-one years, to his father. When this age is reached he who has been in domestic bondage up to this time, silently acquiesces in subjection to 'the 'state, which now binds him for the balance of his life, to service and subjection; as the African is bound to his master for the balance of his life. The state, who is the master of the citizen. And the man, who is the master of the slave; is right fully clothed with authority the world 'over to. Maintain dominion over both. This authority, or power to govern them, is from God. It was given to Adam before the first child was born. God said to Eve that Adam should rule over her. This included the family and the state.

In an Essay, first published in the Religions Herald, and republished by request: with Remarks on a Letter of Elder Galusha, of JV etw York, to Dr. R. Fuller, of South Carolina: By Thornton Stringfellow. Locust Grove, Culpeper Co., Va., 1841. Brother Sands: Circumstances exist among the inhabitants of these United States, which make it proper that the Scriptures should be carefully examined by Christians in reference to the institution of Slavery, which exists in several of the States, with the approbation of those who profess unlimited subjection to Gods revealed will. It is branded by one portion of people, who take their rules of moral rectitude from the Scriptures, as a great sin ;nay, the greatest of sins that exist in the nation. And they hold the obligation to exterminate it, to be paramount to all others. If slavery be thus sinful, it behooves all Christians who are involved in the sin, to repent in dust and ashes, and wash their hands of it, without consulting with flesh and blood. Sin in the sight of God is something which God in his Word makes known to be wrong, either by preceptive prohibition, by principles of moral fitness, or examples of inspired men, contained in the sacred volume. When these furnish no law to condemn human conduct, there is no transgression. Christians should produce a thus saith the Lord, both for what they condemn as sinful, and for what they approve as lawful, in the sight of Heaven. It is to be hoped, that on a question of such vital importance as this to the peace and safety of our common country, as well as to the welfare of the church, we shall be seen cleaving to the Bible, and taking all our decisions about this matter, from its inspired pages. With men from the North, I have observed for many years a palpable ignorance of the divine will, in reference to the institution of slavery. I have seen but a few, who made t (Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)

Slavery: Its Origin, Nature, and History, Considered in the Light of Bible Teachings, Moral Justice, and Political Wisdom (Classic Reprint)

(It cannot but be obvious to all intelligent minds, that a...)

It cannot but be obvious to all intelligent minds, that among the complex questions which have so long agitated the whole land, and which have mingled their discordant elements in producing the present alarming political condition of the country, so deeply distressing to every patriotic mind, the moral and religious question of slavery stands forth most prominent. I ndeed, it is the fundamental question, and demands, first of all, a satisfactory settlement; for on the right decision of this moral and religious question depend all the other questions relating to slavery. Whether slavery, or the condition of being held in subjection to the will of another, is a divine institution, sanctioned by laws and commands, and regulated from the earliest times, or is forbidden as a sin as a violation of the laws of God is surely a fundamental question. Difference here, at the start, is antipodal. The course of conduct pursued by the believers in these two extremes, must of necessity lead to results as diverse as light from darkness. Until this point is satisfactorily settled we cannot reach the expediency or inexpediency, the advantage or disadvantage, of this system of servitude. If it is a sin, if the Bible shows it to be a sin, the controversy is settled; we can have no compromise with sin; we have nothing to do with it but to forsake it. Hence all whose consciences sustain them in that view of the question are at least consistent in their zealous opposition to slavery, and their determination to uproot it everywhere and at all hazards. On the other hand, if God has shown in his word and by his providence, that servitude or slavery, in its various modifications of form and duration, and of mild or severe character, has, from the beginning of the world, been an essential feature in His government of man ;that viewed from a loftier stand-point than is circumscribed by (Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)
