How do the abolitionists use religion to justify their cause?

Abolitionists used religion to justify their cause by emphasizing Christian values such as compassion, equality, and dignity for all individuals, regardless of race. They argued that slavery was incompatible with these beliefs and that it went against the teachings of love and justice in The Bible. Many abolitionists were motivated by their faith to fight against slavery and believed it was their moral duty to work towards its abolition.
