This book was released on 2011-09-23 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Abraham Lincoln: The Ideal Christian It has been said of Abraham Lincoln, the humble backwoodsman who rose to be'the world's greatest governor and emancipator, that he was the m0st perfect Christian ideal outside of Bible characters. Too often ourgreat leaders limit themselves I') a certain nation or race, but this cannot be said of the two characters from whom we will try and draw some delightful and interesting comparisons. Jesus was a Jew, but more than a Jew; Lincoln was an American, but more than an American. They were what the Bible calls true Israelites and that includes all people who worship Abraham's God, regardless of nationality or color.

Download or read book Lincoln s Battle with God written by Stephen Mansfield and published by Thomas Nelson Inc. This book was released on 2012 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abraham Lincoln is the most beloved of all U.S. presidents. He freed the slaves, gave the world some of its most beautiful phrases, and redefined the meaning of America. He did all of this with wisdom, compassion, and wit. Yet, throughout his life, Lincoln fought with God. In his early years in Illinois, he rejected even the existence of God and became the village atheist. In time, this changed but still he wrestled with the truth of the Bible, preachers, doctrines, the will of God, the providence of God, and then, finally, God's purposes in the Civil War. Still, on the day he was shot, Lincoln said he longed to go to Jerusalem to walk in the Savior's steps. What had happened? What was the journey that took Abraham Lincoln from outspoken atheist to a man who yearned to walk in the footsteps of Christ? In this thrilling journey through a largely unknown part of American history, New York Times best-selling author Stephen Mansfield tells the richly textured story of Abraham Lincoln's spiritual life and draws from it a meaning sure to inspire Americans today.
Download or read book Lincoln and the Politics of Christian Love written by Grant N. Havers and published by University of Missouri. This book was released on 2009-11-13 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Havers argues that it is simplistic to conflate Lincoln's invocation of "with charity for all" with his abiding support for the ideal of human equality. The ethic of charity in his view also brought a uniquely Christian realism to the universalism of democracy. He also describes how, since World War I, intellectuals and political leaders have denied that there exists a necessary relation between democracy and Christian love, proposing that democracy is sufficiently ethical without reliance on a specific religious tradition. Today's neoconservatives and liberals instead posit a universal yearning for democracy that requires no foundation in the ethic of charity. Havers shows that this democratic universalism, espoused by those who believe a "chosen people" should uphold the natural rights of humanity, is alien to the sober thought of both the founders and Lincoln.".

Download or read book Abraham Lincoln a Spiritual Scientific Portrait written by Luigi Morelli and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2021-07-20 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This essay forms a continuation of American historical themes already explored from a phenomenological and symptomatic perspective. It is added to the portraits of Franklin, Washington, Pocahontas, Black Elk, Martin Luther King and others. The book tries to explain why scholars and historians from the ‘40s to the present consistently rank Lincoln as the best president in American history. It seems his success rested on a unique individuality, aided by personal connections, fortuitous events, synchronicities without which the nation would have ceased to be what it once was. Lincoln achieved the feat of rescuing the soul of America, without weakening its Republican institutions. In Lincoln we can surmise an initiate of old. His spiritual beliefs went beyond anyone of his time, equal or second to Emerson, Thoreau and the Transcendentalists alone. He wanted no less than to reconnect the nation to its original impulses, in fact rededicate it and reconsecrate it. This endeavor looks at the best of existing scholarship. It assembles all the facets of a personality—the frontier man, the lawyer, the politician, the writer, the orator, the humorist, the Commander in Chief and leader, the thinker, the Christian and spiritual leader—until it can bring back to life his indomitable spirit and offer a full portrait.
