Answer:

Albert Barnes and James Henley Thornwell believed that God supported their views on slavery.

Step-by-step explanation:

Albert Barnes, from New York, was an American Presbiterian priest, who was an advocate of temperance and the abolition of slavery, working actively in favor of abolition, by writing several books relating abolitionism with the message of God in the Bible.

At the same time, James Henley Thornwell, of South Carolina, was also a Presbyterian pastor, but he was in favor of slavery, arguing that this was even justified by the founding principles of Christianity.
