Judge every man in his own time — not in ours. Or you get to the point where “logic” like,”Slaves picked cotton therefore we cannot use cotton anymore” starts to spread. Nip this crap in the bud, Bud!

The Patriarch Abraham, “the friend of God,” and “the father of the faithful,” bought slaves from Haran (Gen. 12:50), included them in his property list (Gen. 12:16, 24:35-36), and willed them to his son Isaac (Gen. 26:13-14).

What is more, Scripture says God blessed Abraham by multiplying his slaves (Gen. 24:35).

In Abrahamʼs household Sarah was set over the slave, Hagar. After Hagar ran away the angel told her, “return to your mistress and submit to her.” (Gen. 16:9).

What follows in a cancel culture?

Well, we should cancel the Bible for one Heck, Every book in the Bible takes the existence of slavery for granted from Genesis to Revelation.

Revelation 6:15; 13:16 & 19:18 take for granted the existence of “free men” and “slaves” (verse 18:13 even takes for granted the existence of both “slaves” and “chariots,” which is odd for a book some believe to be a “vision of the future”).

Jew should also pay reparations to the Arabs who they say are descendants of Hagar through her son, Ishmael.

As for Christians, all Christians who claim to be SPIRITUAL descendants of Abraham? you can pick and choose what cancellation you want for anyone who claims to be one.
