Synopsis
Excerpt from Considerations on the Use of the Productions of Slavery: Especially Addressed to the Religious Society of Friends, Within the Limits of Philadelphia Yearly Meeting
Under a solemn sense of the awful load of guilt which is impending over our beloved coun try, ana' afour share in the responsibility, may we seriously and impartially examine what is required at our hands. If our hearts are softened and expanded by the love of God, we shall be prepared to view these oppressed people as children of the same Almighty Father, equally with ourselves the objects of His divine regard, and of that salvation which comes by J usus Christ; and thus be enabled to enter into a lively feeling of the miseries and hardships they endure; to put our souls in their souls' stead, and in singleness ofheart to follow every clear opening of duty in their behalf, whatever sacrifice it may cost us, either of worldly trea sure or popularity. Yearly Meeting Mi nute, 1839.

Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the complex relationship between slavery and those who use its products, arguing that such use not only perpetuates the institution but also implicates the user in its inherent evils. The author traces the historical evolution of Quaker testimonies against slavery, highlighting the tension between the Society of Friends' commitment to Christian principles and their involvement in a system that profited from human suffering. Through a careful analysis of scripture, the author challenges the idea that the use of slave-produced goods is morally acceptable and calls on readers to confront the ethical implications of their consumption choices. By shedding light on the hidden connections between seemingly innocuous actions and the perpetuation of injustice, this book offers a powerful indictment of the ways in which slavery continues to shape our world today. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781334268847_0
