The Christian Doctrine Of Slavery (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781163763537)

The Christian Doctrine of Slavery by George D. Armstrong is a historical and theological examination of the Christian church's views on slavery. The book explores the role of the church in the institution of slavery, as well as the ways in which Christians justified or condemned the practice throughout history. Armstrong argues that while some Christians used the Bible to justify slavery, others saw it as incompatible with Christian principles of love and justice. The book also examines the abolitionist movement and the role of Christian activists in ending slavery in the United States. Overall, The Christian Doctrine of Slavery offers a comprehensive look at the complex relationship between Christianity and slavery, and the ways in which religious beliefs have shaped attitudes towards this controversial practice throughout history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
