Book Description
Excerpt from The African Repository and Colonial Journal, Vol. 8: May, 1832 I address these interrogatories, chiefly to you who have as sumed the direction of the newly planted church of God, in Li beria. If the corruptions of our holy religion are introduced, or tolerated here, you are answerable. If you err through igno rance, why have you undertaken to instruct others, while gro ping thus in darkness yourselves? If you substitute for doctrines the traditions of a sect, through party zeal, and prejudice, you are equally culpable. NO man has the shadow of an excuse for entertaining with bigot pride, the dogmas of a religious part) in this country, where no such parties exist, till he wickedly cre ates them. In so doing, you sin without a temptation, and re main a bigot, from the mere love of bigotry. And will you sully the brightness and purity ofthe gospel ofjesus Christ, and mar the future hopes of Christianity, throughout western Africa, rather than give up the unfounded opinions, which system-makers, and the partisans of some misguided sect, have invented to answer their own ends, in another hemisphere?

Book Description
Excerpt from The African Repository, and Colonial Journal, 1844, Vol. 20 IT is a little more than two centuries since a small and feeble company of emigrants embarked from Europe for the new western world. Impell ed by persecution and the love of political 'and religious liberty, they cheerfully encountered the perils of thesee and the wilderness, to found upon these shores afree and Christian commonwealth. How vast and beneficent the consequences, as now seen, and more as now anticipated. Guarded by that Providence that conducted Israel to the promised land. They nobly endured affliction, overcame obstacles and opposition, tamed what was fierce, subdued what was rugged and unyielding in nature, or ganized good government, enacted just and salutary laws, established education, built towns and cities, dedicating themselves and their works to Him, whom they delighted to honor by temples, but whose throne they knew was Heaven, whose footstool earth, who determines the times and habitations of all men, and rules with absolute authority the universe.
