“According to Holmes, how is slavery consistent with Christian Principles?”
According to Holmes, slavery is consistent with Christian principals as it acts as a vehicle to bring the religion to them, which would not be possible otherwise, and they would not know about the Gospels. He believes that the Bible supports slavery and that it is consistent with being a devout Christian. In addition to this, Holmes believes that the masters of the slaves are upstanding people, and their protectors, and other Christians should not condemn them.
