God Greater Than Man presents a stirring nineteenth‑century sermon that argues conscience and divine law must guide action, especially when civil law clashes with fundamental rights. It challenges readers to oppose oppression and defend human liberty with courage and faith.
In these pages, the preacher links the abolitionist cause to Christian duty, denouncing slavery and the Fugitive Slave Law as tyrannical and immoral. He urges readers to consider whether loyalty to law should override God’s higher commands and calls for moral action despite personal cost.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a passionate plea for the abolition of slavery, written in the wake of the Fugitive Slave Law of 1850. The author argues that slavery is a moral wrong and a violation of the principles of justice and equality enshrined in the American Constitution. He traces the history of slavery in the United States, from its origins in the transatlantic slave trade to its entrenchment in the legal and economic system of the South. The author also examines the arguments used to justify slavery, such as the claim that African Americans are inferior to whites, and demonstrates their flaws. The author's analysis of slavery is deeply rooted in his Christian faith. He believes that all human beings are created equal in the eyes of God and that slavery is a sin against God's law. He also argues that slavery is a violation of the principles of natural law, which are based on the inherent dignity of all human beings. This book is a powerful indictment of slavery and a passionate call for its abolition. The author's eloquence and moral fervor make this a powerful and moving work. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of slavery in the United States and the ongoing struggle for racial justice.
