An evangelical Christian of strong religious convictions, Brown was profoundly influenced by the Puritan faith of his upbringing.[1][2] He believed that he was “an instrument of God,”[3] raised to strike the “death blow” to American slavery, a “sacred obligation.”[4] Brown was the leading exponent of violence in the American abolitionist movement,[5] believing it was necessary to end American slavery after decades of peaceful efforts had failed.[6][7] Brown said that in working to free the enslaved, he was following Christian ethics, including the Golden Rule,[8] and the Declaration of Independence, which states that “all men are created equal.”[9] He stated that in his view, these two principles “meant the same thing.”[10]
