Excerpt from A Tract for the Times: On the Question, Is It Right to Withhold Fellowship From Churches or From Individuals That Tolerate or Practise Slavery?
Our answer to this question must be, that there are two grounds asserted in the word of God, on which we are not only justified but required to withhold fellowship: first, important doctrinal errors; second, sinful practices.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book interrogates the question as to whether it is ethically and religiously justifiable to withhold religious fellowship from individuals or communities that condone or engage in slavery. Drawing upon scriptural teachings and theological principles, the author argues that because the Bible abhors all forms of sin, then slavery, inherently a sinful practice, ought to be condemned and those who support it, whether in action or thought, ought to be held accountable by the Church. Furthermore, the author posits that this condemnation is, in fact, an expression of love and compassion, designed to correct and discipline errant believers and communities, leading them back to the path of righteousness and moral rectitude. This book will appeal to those interested in Christian ethics, the history of slavery, and the role of the Church in promoting social justice.
