Amazing Grace. It's only when we know how wretched we are in our sins we finally turn from being blind to seeing a great Saviour. The Great I AM of grace.
"i couldn't breathe until i wrote this" -I cannot imagine the great guilt on his soul, though he did the right thing in trying to mend his wrongs instead of giving up and letting his guilt eat away at him. The African people who went through slavery and their descendants have so much resolve these people too
Amazing Grace words have inspired many people for the past two hundred year. I believe he , John Newton was inspired by God to write his famous word . Every soul will naturally cry after hearing Amazing Grace .
I love the story of John Newton. Once he became a follower of Christ and left the slave trade behind he did a lot of people so much good as their pastor. He was so compassionate to his suicidal friend William Cowper. Despite all that at the end of his life he is still broken about his earlier ways. In memory of Albert Finney.
Slavery was mankind's original sin and we still need to eradicate it. If someone wants work done do it oneself and not force someone else to do it. I knew someone who helped depose the old Sultan of Oman in 1968( when the sultan was shot in the foot), the British unit then freed his slaves. It still needs rooting out in the 21st century. A least one religion doesn't condemn slavery, immoral .
None of the abrahamic religions condemn slavery. There are entire chapters in the bible, torah and quran not only condoning it, but setting down explicit rules for slave trading. It is only through freeing ourselves from religion and challenging religious morality that this practice was stopped.
@@davidjones272 The Bible never condones Slavery. The Bible sets out principles of loving thy neighbor. God works, changes, a man through his heart. But there must be repentance.

Tears in the rain. Dust in the wind. " I'm a wretched sinner but Jesus is a great savior" without Him it's the locker for us All!!!
A superb actor portraying a truly divinely inspired man. To God be the glory!

He also wrote the most prolific hymn of all time, one that nearly every person in the world knows, and one every Christian takes to heart.
My god albert finneys acting made a grown man weep
Such a moving story.
Mr. Fantastic is thankful for the advice from Mr. Scrooge that slavery has been abolished
Thank you for the video posting
Yes!!!
This is not acting. Albert Finney channels John Newton.
This is repentance.

@@Brucev7 the bible both condones slavery and tells slaves to obey their masters as though they were god.
@@TheNoobPube Incorrect
Why would slavery be the "original sin" when Eve eating the forbidden fruit predates any slavery, along with Cain murdering his brother?
