Download or read book Abraham Lincoln: Was He a Christian? written by John Remsburg and published by . This book was released on 2012-11-03 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Almost immediately after the remains of America's most illustrious son were laid to rest at Springfield, one of his biographers put forward the claim that he was a devout believer in Christianity. The claim was promptly denied by the dead statesman's friends, but only to be renewed again, and again denied. And thus for a quarter of a century the question of Abraham Lincoln's religious belief has been tossed like a battledoor from side to side. As a result of this controversy, thousands have become interested in a subject that otherwise might have excited but little interest. This is the writer's apology for collecting the testimony of more than one hundred witnesses, and devoting more than three hundred pages to the question, "Was Lincoln a Christian?"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Especially recommended to all persons interested in the religious views of Lincoln, because of the clear and complete manner in which Mr. Remsburg gives the evidence of both sides." -The Free Thought Magazine, Volume 19, 1901 "Do men gather grapes of thorns or figs of thistles?" -The Atlantic Monthly, Volume 73, 1894 One of the most noted controversies of the century has been waged over the question of Abraham Lincoln's religious belief. Soon after the remains of America's most illustrious son were laid to rest at Springfield, one of his biographers, Dr. Holland, put forward the claim that he was a Christian. The claim was promptly denied by the dead statesman's friends, but only to be renewed again, and again denied. And thus for a quarter of a century the question of Lincoln's belief has been tossed like a battledore from side to side. For fifteen years Mr. Remsburg has been collecting material for his work. He presents an array of testimony that is irresistible and overwhelming, and which must put this question at rest forever. In addition to the testimony of twenty witnesses who claim that Lincoln was a Christian, and which is reviewed and refuted, he adduces the testimony of more than a hundred witnesses in proof of the claim that Lincoln was not a Christian. These witnesses include his wife and other relatives; his three law partners; his private secretaries; members of his cabinet; his principal biographers, and scores of his most intimate friends.

Download or read book America's God written by Mark A. Noll and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2002-10-03 with total page 637 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Religious life in early America is often equated with the fire-and-brimstone Puritanism best embodied by the theology of Cotton Mather. Yet, by the nineteenth century, American theology had shifted dramatically away from the severe European traditions directly descended from the Protestant Reformation, of which Puritanism was in the United States the most influential. In its place arose a singularly American set of beliefs. In America's God, Mark Noll has written a biography of this new American ethos. In the 125 years preceding the outbreak of the Civil War, theology played an extraordinarily important role in American public and private life. Its evolution had a profound impact on America's self-definition. The changes taking place in American theology during this period were marked by heightened spiritual inwardness, a new confidence in individual reason, and an attentiveness to the economic and market realities of Western life. Vividly set in the social and political events of the age, America's God is replete with the figures who made up the early American intellectual landscape, from theologians such as Jonathan Edwards, Nathaniel W. Taylor, William Ellery Channing, and Charles Hodge and religiously inspired writers such as Harriet Beecher Stowe and Catherine Stowe to dominant political leaders of the day like Washington, Jefferson, and Lincoln. The contributions of these thinkers combined with the religious revival of the 1740s, colonial warfare with France, the consuming struggle for independence, and the rise of evangelical Protestantism to form a common intellectual coinage based on a rising republicanism and commonsense principles. As this Christian republicanism affirmed itself, it imbued in dedicated Christians a conviction that the Bible supported their beliefs over those of all others. Tragically, this sense of religious purpose set the stage for the Civil War, as the conviction of Christians both North and South that God was on their side served to deepen a schism that would soon rend the young nation asunder. Mark Noll has given us the definitive history of Christian theology in America from the time of Jonathan Edwards to the presidency of Abraham Lincoln. It is a story of a flexible and creative theological energy that over time forged a guiding national ideology the legacies of which remain with us to this day.
Book Synopsis Abraham Lincoln's Religion by : Stephen J. Vicchio
Download or read book Abraham Lincoln's Religion written by Stephen J. Vicchio and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is a summary and analysis of Abraham Lincoln's religion. This study begins with a description of the earliest relations Mr. Lincoln had with religion, his parents' dedication to a sect known as the "Separate Baptists." By late adolescence, Lincoln began to reject his parents' faith, and he appears to have been a religious skeptic until his marriage to Mary Todd. After his marriage, he attended Protestant services with his wife and family, but there was little evidence that he was deeply religious in that time. Lincoln knew the Scriptures quite well, but it was not until the death of his two sons, Eddie in 1850 and Willie in 1862, that as the sixteenth president put it, "He became more intensely concerned with God's Plan for human kind."
Book Synopsis Not a Technical Christian by : Daniel Cravens Taylor
Download or read book Not a Technical Christian written by Daniel Cravens Taylor and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-04-25 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does the world really need another book on Abraham Lincoln? Probably not, but as long as a majority of Americans consider him to be America's greatest president and the enigma and charisma of his personality continues to draw interest, there will be other books - including this one. Will there be anything new in these additional works? Frankly, it will be hard to find something unknown about Lincoln. His story and his history have been hashed and rehashed to the point that authors are hard pressed to find anything new to give to scholars and buffs. The facts of Lincoln's life will not change and there are not many new historical sources coming to light with new information to tantalize and entice. So what does this work offer that has not been said or written before? Maybe not all that much and maybe a lot. There continues to be great disagreement regarding Lincoln's religious nature or his lack thereof. He has been painted as a closet atheist freethinker and as a closet Christian along with almost everything in between. Many words have been written with the goal of presenting the truth about Lincoln's religion. Many, if not most of those works, have started with the conclusion they wanted to be true (or thought might sell more books) and gone on to prove it. That is where this work will attempt to be different. This work on Lincoln is set with one goal, to look at the various thoughts and suppositions and theories about Lincoln's religious beliefs and to weigh them against what he said and did in order to let Lincoln speak about his religion rather than letting others with an agenda pigeon-hole him into theirs. And, naturally, this work will be thought a pigeon-holing by those who already have their pigeon hole and this work does not end up in the same hole.
