Excerpt from Address on the Acts and Deliverances of the General Assembly of the Old School Presbyterian Church: During the Past Five Years, on the State of the Country
In the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States, held in New York in 1862, the Committee to whom had been referred a number of papers on the state of the country, preface their Report, which was adopted as the action of the Church on the subject, with the remark, that in framing the resolutions, They have designed to leave no room for honest doubt, or even for invidious mis construction as to the hearty loyalty of this body to the Government of the United States. And further, There could have been no hesi tation under any circumstances in expressing now and always our car nest and abiding loyalty and devotion to our country, its Constitution and its laws, and to all its duly constituted authorities. Here follows a series of resolutions expressing their loyalty to the Government, their condemnation of the rebellion and hope for the speedy restoration of our beloved Union, while at the same time they avoided entering upon any narrow questions, which peculiarly belong to the domain of secular poli ties.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the ecclesiastical storm surrounding the decisions of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church during America's Civil War. The author examines the crux of the controversy - whether the Assembly had overstepped its spiritual mandate by interfering in civil affairs. By analyzing the Assembly's actions in light of the church's historical doctrine on the separation of church and state, the book sheds light on the complex interplay between religious and political authority. The author presents diverse perspectives from both Northern and Southern Presbyterians, exploring their justifications for supporting their respective governments. Importantly, the book situates this debate within the broader context of American Presbyterianism and the role of religion in shaping the nation's history. Ultimately, the book's insights illuminate the challenges and complexities of balancing religious principles with the demands of a divided nation.
