In 1826, McGill received a degree from Jefferson College (Washington, PA). Aside from a brief sojourn in Georgia and Alabama, McGill spent a good part of the next two decades working as a missionary and minister throughout Carlisle County, PA and the Delaware Valley area. In 1848, McGill was appointed Moderator of the General Assembly (Old School) and held the distinction of being the youngest man of his time to hold that position. After fulfilling his duties as Moderator, McGill remained active in the General Assembly and served on various committees until the early 1870s. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"As a theologian, McGill held conservative views on religion and on the moral responsibility of the Presbyterian Church to its congregation. Apparently alarmed by the growth of such popular religious movements as Transcendentalism, McGill often expressed fears that the American political climate invited moral decline. During the later years of his life, McGill advocated a greater joining of Church and State. Unlike many of his conservative colleagues, McGill was a vocal opponent of American slavery and wrote numerous articles on the subject. Although McGill originally supported the African Colonization Movement, he seemed to have tempered his view of Liberia as the \"promised land\" for Afro-Americans by the 1870s. At that time he stated that if blacks chose to remain in America, 'we shall stand at their side and rejoice'. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"While serving as Moderator of the General Assembly, McGill taught church history and government at Western Theological Seminary (Allegheny, PA).

The controversial aspect was that Barnes touched upon the Fugitive Slave Act, not in name, but in obvious comparison (the footnotes do refer to it by name). He compares their fugitive state to Protestants in Europe who were persecuted and had to flee to America.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"There is a law in this land on the subject here referred to, which cannot be executed. It is against the moral sense - the conscience of mankind, and such a law cannot be carried out. And believing, as I do, that the principles laid down in the texts of Scripture which I have quoted, are binding on the conscience, if a man should come to me as a fugitive from oppressors anywhere, I would treat him precisely as I would desire that my own son should be treated in a similar case, and as I would treat my brother. He should find in me a helper and a sympathizing friend.\" \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSeven pages of footnotes follow explaining the Fugitive Slave Law, claiming that it is a Federal, not a State or personal obligation. Barnes states that he does not promote an open organized resistance to the law, but that he is expressing what he believes that his own, personal response should be if confronted with a fugitive.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlbert Barnes (1798-1870), b. at Rome, N.Y., “one of the most prominent theologians of the Presbyterian Church…He studied at Hamilton College with the view to becoming a lawyer, but the Christian experiences he had there induced him to give up his fondly cherished plan for the work of the ministry; and upon graduating in 1820 he pursued a four years’ course of theological study at Princeton, N.J.” – M’Clintock \u0026amp; Strong. Barnes pastored two churches in New Jersey before accepting the call in 1830 to the First Presbyterian Church in Philadelphia, where he remained until his death. He was a strong advocate of the abolition of slavery, a friend to the poor, and a popular preacher and commentator. Some of his views alarmed the more conservative Presbyterians, and Barnes was a key figure in the “New Light” controversies. His commentary on the Bible remains popular to this day.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Haaswurth Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40237524844610,"sku":"AbE9147","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0191\/6066\/2082\/products\/DSC06856.jpg?v=1679001425"},{"product_id":"reed-v-d-the-conflict-of-truth-1865-american-civil-war-sermon","title":"Reed, V.
