As a result of the Missouri Compromise, passed in 1820, Missouri was admitted into the Union as a slave state, while Maine was admitted as a free state. The purpose of the Compromise was to maintain the balance between the number of slave and free states in the Union.
Besides that, this law officially forbid slavery in the Louisiana Territory north of the 36° 30´ parallel, which served as the southern boundary of Missouri. Everything north of the line would be free soil, except for Missouri. The Compromise was repealed in 1854 and declared unconstitutional three years later, as the Supreme Court decided that Congress had no right to prohibit slavery in the named territories.
Legalism (or nomism), in Christian theology, is the act of putting law[clarification needed] above gospel by establishing requirements for salvation beyond repentance and faith in Jesus Christ and reducing the broad, inclusive, and general precepts of the Bible to narrow and rigid moral codes.[1] It is an over-emphasis of discipline of conduct, or legal ideas, usually implying an allegation of misguided rigour, pride, superficiality, the neglect of mercy, and ignorance of the grace of God or emphasizing the letter of law at the expense of the spirit. Legalism is alleged against any view that obedience to law, not faith in God's grace, is the pre-eminent principle of redemption. On the Biblical viewpoint that redemption is not earned by works, but that obedient faith is required to enter and remain in the redeemed state.
