Excerpts from an article by William Lloyd Garrison wherein he makes the argument that the law of man itself is corrupt and that the only law that should guide a man’s life is the Law of God. Going to the scriptures themselves as his foundation, Garrison argues that where there is no conflict between the law of man and the Law of God then there is no problem but where the law of man demands one thing and the Law of God demands another then the Christian will always obey God first and face whatever the consequences be for defying the law of man.
