00:19 ♪[reflective music]♪ 00:20 >>John Bradshaw: The Bible is a rescue story. 00:23 After Adam and Eve fell, 00:25 they found themselves held fast by sin. 00:29 It's true they had only themselves to blame 00:32 for the mess that they were in, but rather than leave them 00:35 to the consequences of their misdeeds, 00:38 heaven swung into action, 00:40 and the greatest rescue in the history of the universe began. 00:46 Now, together we're going to look 00:48 at another remarkable rescue story. 00:51 ♪[music continues]♪ 00:54 This rescue took place prior to the Civil War, 00:57 and some say it paved the way for the Civil War. 01:00 Involved were a group of Christians, 01:02 a number of university students, a fugitive, 01:06 and a group of people committed to returning 01:08 the fugitive to his home. [shouting] 01:11 There was civil disobedience and cooperation 01:13 between people of different races-- 01:15 no small thing considering this rescue occurred in 1858. 01:21 In defiance of federal law, a town rallied to free a man 01:25 who had been legally captured, 01:27 but this group decided they just weren't going to take it. 01:31 And they didn't. 01:33 ♪[dramatic music]♪ [sound of leaves blown by wind] 01:40 It's 1833. A new town is created in northern Ohio. 01:46 This community, called Oberlin, would soon become the home 01:50 of a missionary training school. 01:52 It wouldn't take long before Oberlin College was committed 01:55 to the abolition of slavery. 01:58 >>David Hill: Oberlin was founded as a religious utopia. 02:01 Uh, it was designed to be a, a community 02:03 where people of faith came. 02:05 You actually signed a faith covenant 02:06 to be part of the Oberlin community. 02:09 And in the earliest days of the Oberlin colony, 02:12 the, um, church, the faith community, the town, 02:15 and the college were like this-- 02:17 they were all interwoven together. 02:19 There was no way to separate them out. 02:21 >>Kurt Russell: The idea of this small, little town 02:24 was really based upon making sure that everyone had a voice, 02:29 and that we'll be this hot spots of abolitionism, 02:32 this hot spot of freedom. 02:35 >>Elizabeth Schultz: It was very radical. 02:36 This is a place where black families 02:38 really had opportunities, 02:40 uh, business, educational, and just safety at that time. 02:44 ♪[reflective music]♪ 02:45 >>John: Slavery was abolished in Ohio in 1802. 02:49 The town of Oberlin was fully integrated. 02:51 Blacks and whites operated businesses 02:53 right next to each other, 02:54 and they worshiped together in church. 02:57 In fact, instead of celebrating the Fourth of July, 03:00 many Oberlin residents dedicated that day 03:02 to holding anti-slavery meetings. 03:05 Oberlin was considered "an academic powder keg 03:08 for abolitionism" and "the most noted abolition town" 03:12 in all of North America. 03:15 At Oberlin, white students and black students, 03:18 males and females studied alongside each other. 03:22 Students worked in agriculture or mechanics, 03:25 as well as pursuing academics. 03:27 And great numbers of missionaries were sent out. 03:30 The Oberlin church had decided that slavery was a sin, 03:34 and slave holders were not welcome to attend. 03:38 Charles Finney, a professor of theology at Oberlin College 03:41 before becoming the school's president, 03:43 denounced slavery from the pulpit, 03:45 calling it "a great national sin." 03:48 How did Oberlin become such a stronghold of abolitionism? 03:54 >>David: I think a good part of that has to do with, um, 03:57 the popularity of Charles Finney, when this-- 03:59 he was the one that designed this space 04:01 that you and I are sitting in today, which, um-- 04:04 his following was so powerful that it, 04:06 it actually reached the point where they wouldn't all fit 04:08 in this building, and they had to build 04:10 a second congregational church, not because of the division 04:13 but because they just needed more space. 04:15 So, I think Charles Finney was really passionate about it. 04:18 He looked at the members of the community that had came here. 04:21 Uh, if you were a captive and managed to escape 04:24 and came to Oberlin, you didn't have to hide out; 04:26 you could live openly in this community. 04:28 You were welcomed in this community. 04:29 So they were both black and white abolitionist leaders 04:32 that lived here. 04:33 >>John: Ohio's anti-slavery stance wasn't unusual. 04:37 Pennsylvania banned slavery in 1780. 04:40 Massachusetts and Rhode Island followed suit before 1785. 04:45 Vermont banned slavery on July 2, 1777, 04:49 even before it was a state. 04:51 The United States banned the importation of slaves in 1808, 04:56 but it would be another 55 years 04:58 before the Emancipation Proclamation would be signed. 05:03 By the middle of the 19th century, life had become 05:05 more complicated for abolitionists 05:07 living in the North. 05:09 While it had been illegal to assist a fugitive from slavery 05:13 since 1793, the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 compelled people 05:19 to assist in the capture of a fugitive from slavery 05:21 if it was deemed necessary for them to do so. 05:24 Those who refused could be fined or imprisoned. 05:27 Now, it was very difficult to prove that any African American 05:31 was not a fugitive from slavery. 05:34 Those accused of being such were denied a trial 05:38 and could not testify in their own behalf. 05:41 Making matters worse, the commissioner deciding 05:44 such cases was paid $5 if he decided 05:48 in behalf of the fugitive, 05:50 $10 if he decided in behalf of the slave owner. 05:55 So, not only was the law massively unjust, 05:58 it was also open to terrible abuse. 06:02 [wind blowing] 06:03 In the winter of 1856, three people 06:06 decided to escape to freedom. 06:09 Frank, Dinah, and a man named John Price fled 06:13 from slave owner John Bacon in Mason County, Kentucky. 06:18 Escaping as they did was extraordinarily risky, 06:21 especially given the hostile weather. 06:24 On foot they crossed a frozen Ohio River, 06:27 avoided main roads, 06:28 traveling mainly at night to avoid detection, 06:31 before making it to north-central Ohio in February. 06:35 Price and his friends traveled via the Underground Railroad, 06:38 an informal network of routes taken 06:41 by enslaved African Americans out of the South 06:44 and on to freedom, either in Northern states or in Canada, 06:49 where fugitives were welcomed and even given citizenship. 06:54 Most who escaped never made it to freedom and were returned 06:58 to the farms or plantations from which they fled. 07:03 John Price and his fellow fugitive Frank 07:05 were living in Oberlin, Ohio, by early-to mid-1858. 07:10 Price worked as he was able 07:12 and was otherwise supported by charity. 07:14 But even in Oberlin, he wasn't completely safe. 07:18 Slave catchers might be sent to retrieve the property 07:22 of Southern slave owners. 07:25 Someone like John Price was worth around $1,000, 07:29 which is about $40,000 today. 07:31 He might have been worth as much as $1,500--$60,000 today. 07:36 So there was real money to be lost 07:38 when a slave ran for freedom. 07:40 Slave owners were highly motivated to get them back. 07:44 Slave catchers were also well remunerated. 07:48 For bringing in somebody like John Price, 07:50 a slave catcher might earn as much as $1,000. 07:53 Again, that's $40,000 today. 07:57 The arrival of a certain mysterious stranger in Oberlin 08:01 set local residents on edge. 08:04 Anderson Jennings was the neighbor of John Bacon. 08:08 John Bacon was the owner of John Price, Frank, and Dinah 08:14 back in Mason County, Kentucky. 08:16 On the pretext of finding work for John, 08:18 certain associates of Jennings lured him 08:20 into a horse-drawn carriage, 08:22 took him out to the edge of town, and just like that, 08:25 John Price had been captured without any fuss at all. 08:29 He'd be taken out of free Ohio back to the farm 08:33 and the life which he had escaped. 08:37 And that might have been the end of the story, 08:39 except that the slave catcher Jennings didn't anticipate 08:43 the resistance he'd be up against 08:45 from the people of Oberlin. 08:47 What transpired is said to have paved the way, in part, 08:50 for the Civil War. 08:52 ♪[somber music]♪ [dramatic swoosh sound] 08:56 After narrowly avoiding having to go to war 08:58 against his own people, David, who at the time was a fugitive 09:02 from King Saul, returns to his temporary home in Ziklag 09:06 to discover the city had been burned to the ground, 09:09 and his possessions and, far worse, 09:12 the women and children had all been taken. 09:15 After inquiring of God what he ought to do, 09:17 David and his men pursued the Amalekite raiders. 09:21 After a day of battle, they were triumphant, 09:25 and David and his community were all reunited. 09:29 Now, while it didn't quite rise to that level in this case, 09:32 the rescue of John Price was dramatic 09:35 and its effects far reaching. 09:37 He was transported by his captors here, to Wellington, 09:41 eight or nine miles south of Oberlin. 09:43 Jennings, the slave catcher, planned to have John 09:46 on the 5:13 p.m. train 09:48 from Wellington to Columbus, Ohio, 09:50 and back on the farm in Mason County, Kentucky, within a day. 09:54 Except that, on their way to Wellington, 09:57 the group passed a carriage coming in the other direction 10:01 toward Oberlin. 10:03 In that carriage was Ansel Lyman, 10:05 an Oberlin student and a staunch abolitionist. 10:09 Within 15 minutes Tappan Square was filled with people 10:13 who were armed and ready for action. 10:16 Business owners, students, city employees, 10:19 black people, white people-- between them they gathered 10:23 every vehicle they could find, seizing some. 10:26 The people of Oberlin were going after John Price, and they 10:30 would bring him back to where they believed he belonged. 10:33 >>Elizabeth: Bells started to ring throughout town. 10:36 People were rushing out of their homes, 10:38 especially the, the black business owners. 10:40 You know, they were all congregating. 10:42 Many of them, uh, met in Tappan Square, 10:45 and, uh, one of them raised rifles in one hand 10:48 and kind of waved his hat in the other and said, 10:49 "I'm going to rescue John Price." 10:51 And the crowd just gives this massive cheer. 10:54 >>John: Some walked to Wellington. 10:56 Of those who didn't carry guns, many carried sticks. 11:00 One woman loaned her horse and carriage to the rescuers, 11:03 saying, "If necessary, spare not the life of my beast, 11:07 but rescue the man." 11:09 It's said that the Anglo-Irish statesman Edmund Burke 11:11 once said, "The only thing necessary for evil to triumph 11:16 is for good men to do nothing." 11:18 Well, in this case, good men and women did something, 11:23 but even then it looked like evil might triumph. 11:27 ♪[somber music]♪ 11:28 While looking at the rescue of John Price, 11:30 it's worth asking ourselves why a slave would escape 11:34 in the first place. Now, you might say, 11:36 "For obvious reasons," and I think you'd be right about that. 11:39 As the property of another person, no slave was free. 11:43 But while these stories aren't pleasant, 11:45 we're going to look at one that might give us an understanding 11:47 of the mindset of a fugitive. 11:50 While Margaret Garner was black, 11:52 her father was a white plantation owner. 11:55 The father of her four children 11:58 was also a white plantation owner. 12:02 Margaret, her husband, and the four kids were arrested 12:05 under the Fugitive Slave Act 12:06 after fleeing across a frozen Ohio River 12:10 during what was then the coldest winter in 60 years. 12:14 But rather than see her children returned to slavery 12:18 and have her own daughters endure what she had endured, 12:23 Margaret took her 2-year-old daughter's life 12:27 and would have taken the lives of her three other children 12:30 if she'd been able to do so. 12:33 She was driven to desperation by the horrific abuses 12:37 of a system that was simply accepted. 12:40 Those abuses were tolerated and considered to be 12:44 simply part of the way of life. 12:48 So, what would the law do with Margaret Garner, 12:50 who had taken the life of her own child? 12:52 Well, she wasn't tried in Ohio. 12:56 If she was, she would be tried as a free person. 12:58 Instead, she was taken back to Kentucky, 13:01 where she was considered property. 13:04 As property, she couldn't be tried for murder, 13:08 but she could be returned to slavery. 13:11 And she was. 13:13 >>Kurt: John Price was captured under the Fugitive Slave Act. 13:18 And Oberlin said that "we are going to break this law, 13:24 and we are going to make sure that we protect John Price." 13:28 So, in a nutshell, when John Price was captured, 13:30 when John Price was taken to Wellington, 13:33 and when John Price was going to be transported 13:36 back to Kentucky, Oberlin said, "Enough is enough, 13:41 and we are finished with this compromise." 13:42 ♪[dramatic music]♪ [shouting] 13:44 >>John: John Price was taken to the Wadsworth Hotel. 13:47 A group of armed men held Price inside, 13:50 determined that he was going south to Kentucky. 13:53 But by 3:00 that afternoon, 13:55 about 250 men and some women gathered in front of the hotel, 14:00 determined that Price was going nowhere except back to Oberlin. 14:06 The tension increased when word spread that a local militia 14:09 was going to be arriving in Wellington by train. 14:13 The locals knew that if they were going to act, 14:15 they needed to act quickly. 14:18 After negotiations for the release of John Price 14:20 broke down, two groups of men broke into the Wadsworth Hotel, 14:25 wrestled him away from his captors, 14:27 and Price was spirited away in a carriage back to Oberlin. 14:32 [hooves clopping, harness jingling] 14:33 >>Elizabeth: So he safely gets away. 14:35 Uh, he's going to hide in the home of a man named James Fitch. 14:39 He stays there for a few hours, but everyone in town knows 14:43 James Fitch is an abolitionist and Underground Railroad agent. 14:46 So, they quickly realized that is not the safest house. 14:49 So, um, James Monroe, who later lives in this house, 14:53 he and James Fitch escort John Price to another home, 14:57 which was just like up the block here, 14:58 uh, to James Fairchild and his wife, 15:01 and they shelter John Price, and nobody thinks to look there. 15:05 >>John: But the fact remained that the rescuers 15:07 had broken the law. 15:09 The fact that it was an unjust law did not lessen their guilt. 15:15 Thirty-seven men were indicted by a grand jury 15:18 of the District Court of Cleveland. 15:20 Twenty-five were from Oberlin, including 12 black men, 15:24 some of whom were businessmen. 15:26 And 12 were from Wellington. 15:28 The "Cleveland Leader" newspaper reported on January 13, 1859, 15:34 that a felons' feast was held to celebrate 15:38 what they had done as rescuers 15:40 in defiance of what they considered to be an unjust law. 15:45 State officials then arrested the federal marshal 15:48 and others involved in John Price's capture. 15:51 Eventually, the marshal and his men were released 15:54 in exchange for 35 of the 37 men facing federal indictment. 16:00 The two who were not released were convicted 16:02 and had to serve their sentences. 16:05 Simeon Bushnell served 88 days in the Cuyahoga County jail. 16:10 The other was African American Charles Langston, who said 16:14 as he addressed the court... 16:16 >>Charles Langston: I know that the courts of this country, 16:19 that the laws of this country, 16:22 that the government and machinery of this country 16:25 are so constituted as to oppress and outrage colored men, 16:30 men of my complexion. I cannot then, of course, expect, 16:35 judging from the past history of the country, 16:38 any mercy from the laws, from the Constitution, 16:42 or from the courts of the country. 16:45 >>John: It was said his address before the court was masterly, 16:49 spellbinding, powerful, but it didn't prevent him 16:52 from being sentenced to 20 days in prison and $100 fine, 16:57 which, disappointing to the government 17:00 of President James Buchanan, 17:02 was about the lightest punishment he could receive. 17:06 So what became of John Price? 17:09 It's believed he made it to Canada and to freedom. 17:15 The second best-selling book in the United States 17:18 in the 19th century was "Uncle Tom's Cabin," 17:22 Harriet Beecher Stowe's classic novel 17:24 dealing with the injustices of slavery. 17:28 Published in 1852, "Uncle Tom's Cabin" 17:32 was addressed to Southern whites 17:34 and skewered Christians who believed that slavery was just. 17:39 Although she relied on stereotypes 17:41 and, from our vantage point, 17:42 might not always have got her tone quite right, 17:45 there's no question that "Uncle Tom's Cabin" 17:47 created a groundswell of opposition against slavery 17:51 and, and opened eyes to the horrors of the institution 17:55 all around the world. 17:57 The number one selling book in the United States 18:00 in the 19th century was the Bible, which, simply put, 18:05 is a collection of rescue stories. 18:07 ♪[soft music]♪ 18:09 Adam and Eve were offered a way out of the slavery of sin 18:12 through the promise of a Savior. 18:14 Noah and his family rescued from a global flood, 18:18 the Israelites were rescued from Egypt. 18:21 Daniel was rescued from hungry lions, 18:23 and his friends were rescued in a fiery furnace. 18:26 Peter was rescued from prison. 18:29 Bartimaeus, the 10 lepers, the man let down through the roof 18:33 of Peter's home in Capernaum, and many more rescued 18:37 from the power of sickness and disease. 18:41 But those aren't the greatest rescue stories. 18:43 The Bible says that Jesus would "save His people 18:46 from their sins," and that's the greatest rescue of all. 18:50 We could think of the demon-possessed, 18:53 the woman taken in adultery, the woman at the well, 18:56 Zacchaeus, and others who were rescued from the power of sin. 19:02 Paul, in Romans 7, describes the experience of the person 19:06 stuck in sin, someone he calls "carnal," a person who wants 19:11 to do right but can't 19:13 and doesn't want to do wrong but does. 19:15 He cries out, 19:17 "Who [shall] deliver me from this body of death?" 19:20 The answer is, "I thank God-- through Jesus Christ our Lord!" 19:25 Jesus, with power to rescue you from the strongest chains 19:30 that bind you, He's able to break addictions. 19:34 He can make an angry person calm, 19:36 a bitter person sweet, 19:38 an unforgiving person gracious. 19:40 The power of God can make an honest person out of a thief, 19:44 a moral person out of an immoral person. 19:47 It can change a violent person's heart 19:49 and make that person gentle. 19:51 Jesus can bring peace into your marriage and joy into your home. 19:56 God can make you what you could never make yourself. 19:59 God can make you what you know you really want to be. 20:03 You know, even in the church there are far too many people 20:06 who've never experienced God's power to save. 20:09 They're calling themselves Christians 20:12 while they've never been impacted 20:14 by the transforming power of God. 20:18 Too many people outside the church are distracted 20:21 by side issues without ever considering the real issue, 20:25 and that is there's only one power in the universe 20:29 that can save you from sin, 20:31 only one power in the universe that can save you 20:34 from yourself, give you peace in your life, give you a new heart. 20:39 Only the power of God can do that, only God Himself. 20:44 The ultimate rescue is still to come. 20:47 That's what Paul was talking about when he wrote to Titus 20:50 about "the blessed hope." Jesus spoke of it. 20:53 Revelation refers to it. Daniel wrote about it. 20:57 It's the apogee--it's the high point of the Bible. 21:01 Jesus said, "I go to prepare a place for you. 21:05 "And if I go and prepare a place for you, 21:08 "I will come again, and receive you unto myself, 21:12 that where I am, there ye may be also." 21:16 In the book of Revelation, 21:17 the same event, the return of Jesus, is portrayed 21:21 as Jesus riding down the great corridors of space 21:25 on a white horse, all the angels of heaven following Him. 21:29 "And He hath on His vesture and on His thigh a name written, 21:33 'KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.'" 21:36 Paul wrote that "the Lord Himself shall descend 21:39 "from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, 21:42 "and with the trump of God: 21:44 "and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 21:47 "then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up 21:50 "together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord 21:53 in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord." 21:57 That's the return of Jesus. 22:00 Now, you and I both know that this world doesn't really have 22:02 anything to offer, and we know there can't be much time left. 22:06 Where are you going to be on that day? 22:08 Through faith in Jesus you can be ready 22:09 for the return of Jesus and for the eternity that follows. 22:14 You know, we learned several things 22:15 from the rescue of John Price. 22:17 One of them is there are times that people need to act. 22:22 If that one university student, Ansel Lyman, 22:25 had come back here to Oberlin, right here to Tappan Square, 22:29 and said nothing, the story of the rescue of John Price 22:33 would not have happened. 22:35 He couldn't have rescued John on his own, 22:37 but he raised the alarm, and then people said, 22:40 "We're going to dare to be different. 22:42 "We're going to dare to step forward and make a difference. 22:45 "We're going to dare to stand up for what we know is right, 22:48 "even though others don't agree with us. 22:50 We're going to do the right thing because it's right." 22:54 And these dedicated Christian people committed 22:56 to doing the right thing altered the course of history. 23:01 ♪[reflective music]♪ 23:03 John Price didn't have to go free. 23:07 He needed to be rescued in order to go free. 23:10 But when the rescuers came, 23:12 Price didn't have to go with them. 23:15 He could have said, "Don't rescue me. 23:18 I'm going to go back to Kentucky and back to the farm." 23:22 Now, that might not sound like a very smart thing to do, 23:24 but there are people who do that all the time, 23:26 and you might be one of them. 23:28 How? Well, you might be one of the people who say, 23:31 "I could never go to heaven because I'm too bad." 23:34 Or, "My heart is too hard." 23:36 Or, "I'm too wicked." Or, "I'm just too far gone." 23:40 None of that is true. 23:41 What you're really saying is, 23:43 "I don't want the Savior to save me." 23:46 It's like you're on the second floor of the Washington Hotel, 23:49 and the gang of guys breaks in through the back door, 23:51 and one goes through the front door.
