Description
""Letters Addressed To Caleb Strong, Late Governor Of Massachusetts: Showing That Retaliation, Capital Punishments, And War, Are Prohibited By The Gospel"" is a book written by Samuel Whelpley in 1818. The book is a series of letters addressed to Caleb Strong, the late Governor of Massachusetts, in which Whelpley argues that the principles of Christianity prohibit retaliation, capital punishment, and war. Whelpley uses biblical references and arguments to support his claims and to urge Strong and other political leaders to adopt a more peaceful and compassionate approach to governance. The book is a reflection of the growing influence of Christian pacifism in the early 19th century and provides insight into the social and political debates of the time.Showing That Retaliation, Capital Punishments, And War, Are Prohibited By The Gospel, Justified By No Good Principle, Not Necessary To The Safety Of Individuals Or Nations. But, Incompatible With Their Welfare, Inconsistent With The Christian Character, And Contrary To The Laws Of Christ.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
