Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book examines the controversy surrounding slavery in the Methodist Episcopal Church in the 19th century. The author argues that the Church's initial rules on the subject were a compromise between the Northern and Southern factions of the Church, and that this compromise was gradually eroded by the increasing abolitionist sentiment in the North. The book provides a detailed history of the controversy, from its beginnings in the early 1800s to the final split between the Northern and Southern branches of the Church in 1844. The author argues that the Church's failure to maintain the compromise led to the division of the Church and the loss of its influence in the South. The book's insights into the role of compromise in maintaining unity and the dangers of extremism are still relevant today, making this a valuable read for anyone interested in the history of the Methodist Church or the role of slavery in American society. 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.…
