Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Discourse on the Assassination of President Lincoln: Preached in Camp at Harrison's Landing, Virginia, April 23d, 1865 "Romans, 6: 26. We know that all things work together for good to them that love God." The words which I have chosen from the fountain of Divine Truth are full of consolation, and of the greatest importance for all who love their God and their Country. Whatever this world may be to others, the true believer knows that all things work together for his good. Whatever the trials may be, which he encounters, he knows that God is the ruler of the universe, the conductor of His people, and as it is written that not a sparrow falleth down to the ground without our Heavenly Father's will, so the believer is led to believe that the national bereavement, which fell upon this nation like a thunderclap in a clear and cloudless sky, was part and parcel of God's holy and inscrutable will. The death of Abraham Lincoln, by the hand of a traitorous assassin, at a time when all hearts yearned for a restoration of true national unity, and at the very threshhold of peace, must be considered, by every true and God-fearing man, as an event fraught with mysterious designs by an allwise and overruling God. It has been observed, and should he remembered by all coming generations, that on Good Friday, the anniversary of the day on which our Savior was crucified, the closing hours of the great American Rebellion have been marked by its greatest crime; a crime which will live in history as the most truthful representation of diabolical wickedness since the crucifixion of our Savior. The life of the Redeemer of mankind was taken by an intolerant and bigoted hierarchy, who feared Him because He was the inspired revealer of the Divine Truth: "Peace and good will towards all men."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A supplemental textbook for middle and high school students, Hoosiers and the American Story provides intimate views of individuals and places in Indiana set within themes from American history. During the frontier days when Americans battled with and exiled native peoples from the East, Indiana was on the leading edge of America’s westward expansion. As waves of immigrants swept across the Appalachians and eastern waterways, Indiana became established as both a crossroads and as a vital part of Middle America. Indiana’s stories illuminate the history of American agriculture, wars, industrialization, ethnic conflicts, technological improvements, political battles, transportation networks, economic shifts, social welfare initiatives, and more. In so doing, they elucidate large national issues so that students can relate personally to the ideas and events that comprise American history. At the same time, the stories shed light on what it means to be a Hoosier, today and in the past.

This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from National Calamities From God and Thoughts on President Lincoln's Assassination: A Discourse, Delivered at the Presbyterian Church, Lexington, Richland Sabbath Even'g, April 23, 1865 Amos, in the commencement of this chapter, expatiates on the Divine goodness towards the Hebrew people - tells them of their abuse of it - and predicts the certainty of the punishment that must follow. "Hear this word that the Lord hath spoken against you, O children of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up from the land of Egypt, saying, "You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities." Then in a series of pointed and parabolic interrogations, the prophet illustrates the punishment which must be endured as the result of disobedience. "Can two walk together, except they be agreed? "Will a lion roar in the forest, when he hath no prey? will a young lion cry out of his den, if he have taken nothing? "Can a bird fall in a snare from the earth, where no gin is for him? shall one take up a snare from the earth, and have taken nothing at all? "Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the Lord hath not done it?" The positiveness of punishment for sin, is the point insisted on in these similitudes, on the hypothesis that the guilty people did not repent. Though the Lord had determined to inflict punishment on them, yet He did not execute it until He had given them warning, and afforded them an opportunity to develop penitence and obedience. "Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but (except) He revealeth His secret (purpose) unto His servants the prophets."
