Sinossi
Faith, liberty, and a nation at war meet in a powerful Civil War sermon.
This book collects a sermon that treats the Declaration of Independence as a living creed, guiding a nation through crisis and toward justice. In Furness's discourse, religion and the fight against slavery shape a shared national purpose. He argues that free institutions survive only when people heed moral law, seek equality, and stand united in defense of human rights. The text blends history, scripture, and political reflection to frame the war as a test of a nation’s deepest commitments.

- See a foundational defense of freedom that ties Christian faith to political action.
- Read a historical voice that links domestic bondage to national peril and calls for universal rights.
- Understand the moral urgency the author places on justice, unity, and sacrifice during crisis.
