Abolitionists are driven by a desire to do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with their God (Micah 6:8). Abolitionists are not interested in merely abstaining from evil themselves, but are committed to exposing evil and bringing it into conflict with the truth of Christianity (Ephesians 5:11).
English belongs to the Germanic family of Indo-European languages. Old English (also known as Anglo-Saxon) had two main dialects. The Anglic dialect gave its name to the language, but the Saxon dialect eventually evolved into Modern English.
English is not derived from any other language in particular but several. It is a Germanic language, the closest relatives are Dutch as spoken in the Netherlands and Flemish as spoken in Belgium. It has roots in Celtic, Latin, Norse and Norman French.
