Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Slaveholding Not Sinful: An Argument Before the General Synod of the Reformed Protestant Dutch Church, October, 1855
As I am addressing the Supreme Ecclesiastical Court of the Reformed Protestant Dutch Church, my final appeal Shall be to the Holy Scriptures as the inspired word of God, the only infallible and perfect rule of right and wrong, truth and error, in matters of religious faith and duty. We all profess to believe that the law and the testimony of God are the standard of duty and the rule of faith, and that if any speak not accord ing to this word, it is because there is no light in them.
