Black graphic with an image of the title page of The Gospel of the Typical Servitude, a sermon preached in Greenfield, Ohio, by Samuel Crothers (1783–1856), Pastor of the Presbyterian Church. Beside it is a quote: “He instructs them by his word and spirit, and clothes them with his righteousness and feeds them with the bread of life, and protects them from all their enemies. Hence the disciples loved to call Jesus master. They gloried in the title, servants of Jesus Christ. They would not have exchanged it for that of Caesar. It humbled them, and cheered them and kept alive in their hearts a sense of their obligations to the Saviour who had done so great things for them.“
Samuel Crothers: both enslavers and Jesus are called “Master.” But consider what Jesus gave those who called him that. Slavery didn’t merely oppress bodies—it poisoned a sacred word, turning a term of divine tenderness into something people now flinch to say.

Black background quote graphic featuring a portrait of Theodore Ledyard Cuyler (1822–1909), Dutch Reformed pastor. The quotation declares that harming enslaved believers is a crime against Christ Himself, asserting that abusing them is like scourging Jesus in the person of His suffering child.
Theodor Cuyler, Dutch #Reformed pastor in NYC, declared slavery a crime against Christ Himself. To abuse a believer is to “scourge the blessed Jesus,” for His people bear His image.
How would you treat others if you truly saw each neglected or wronged person as Christ’s representative?

You think things are bad now? Well, you're right. They are.
But look how pro-slavery writer Benjamin Franklin Stringfellow described abolitionists in the 1850s (this and other writings radicalized John Brown, executed on this day in 1859):

In 1839, he co-authored the book American Slavery as It Is: Testimony of a Thousand Witnesses. The author Harriet Beecher Stowe partly based her landmark novel Uncle Tom’s Cabin on Weld's text. Her father, Lyman Beecher, described Weld as “eloquent as an angel, and powerful as thunder.” Beecher also said that Weld’s words were “logic on fire.”

When people claim that the fulfilment of basic needs for all would destroy the incentive to work, they are admitting the entire capitalist system is based in coercion; that is a form of slavery ("work for us or starve"). Labour can never be voluntary in such a system.
