  1. ‘Social Justice and Liberation Theology – has Gospel Music Betrayed its Heritage?’

  2. Volney Morgan and New Ye

  3. Be true to your husbands and wives, and obedient to your masters….. The Lord has made all ranks – kings, masters, servants and slaves. God has punished the first Negros by making them slaves, and your conversion will make you free, not from the control of your masters, but simply from your wicket habits and thoughts, and all that makes you dissatisfied with your lot.  • (Quoted in G. Simpson, Black Religions in the New World. Columbia University Press, 1978 p. 32.

  4. ‘When reminded that the Scriptures teach human beings to be content with the station allotted to them by Providence, and that even slaves are required patiently to submit to their lot, till the Lord in His providence is pleased to change it, Sharpe responded, “If I have done wrong in that, I trust that I shall be forgiven for I cast myself upon the Atonement … I would rather die upon yonder gallows than to live in slavery”.’
 • Henry Bleby, Death Struggles of Slavery,
