Paperback, [EAN: 9780259224365], Forgotten Books, Forgotten Books, Book, [PU: Forgotten Books], Forgotten Books, Excerpt from What Patriotism, Justice, and Christianity Demand for India: A Sermon Preached October 11, 1857, at the Chapel, Canal Walk, SouthamptonAT a time when so many of our public men are stimulating the war cry against India, and urging us to bring all the might of British power to bear on the people of that unhappy country, it requires more than ordinary moral effort to stem the tide of national resentment, and to expose What I firmly believe to be well grounded convictions, to the risk of misconstruction and misrepresentation. But it is not for the Christian minister to succumb to the mere voice of numbers. Rather should he follow the example of those great and good men who have suffered ostracism, and exile, and torture, and death, sooner than betray a tittle of that which they regarded as the true interests of the land of their birth, or forfeit a pure allegiance to their Saviour and their God. Yes! I cannot but speak truth and equity demand that I give utterance to opinions which, If right are of weighty import. Nor do I think, that Heaven's great teach ing of the universal brotherhood of man, which in my inmost soul I reverence, interferes with the patriotism which constrains me to desire that England should be truly glorious among the nations of the earth.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
