An Essay On The Lord�������s Supper And Emancipation is a book written by Francis William Pitt Greenwood in 1840. It is a religious and political treatise that explores the connection between the Christian sacrament of the Lord's Supper and the abolition of slavery. The author argues that the act of partaking in the Lord's Supper, which represents the sacrifice of Jesus Christ for humanity, should inspire Christians to work towards the freedom of all people, including slaves. Greenwood draws on biblical and historical references to support his argument, and he also discusses the contemporary political situation in the United States, where slavery was still legal in many states. He advocates for the immediate abolition of slavery and argues that it is a moral imperative for Christians to work towards the end of this institution. The book is written in a persuasive and passionate style, and it reflects the author's deep commitment to both his faith and the cause of abolition. It is an important historical document that sheds light on the intersection of religion and politics in the 19th century, and it continues to be relevant today as a reminder of the ongoing struggle for social justice and equality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
