Old Abe must have turned over in his grave when 1914 ushered in a new kind of war.....TOTAL WAR!!!

For someone who was supposed to support the bible he seemed to overlook a few scriptures....

John 18:36 New International Version
Jesus said, "My kingdom is not of this world. If it were, my servants would fight to prevent my arrest by the Jewish leaders. But now my kingdom is from another place."

Eccl 8:9 All of this I have seen, and I applied my heart to every work that has been done under the sun, during the time that man has dominated man to his harm.*

Jeremiah 10:23  I well know, O Jehovah, that man’s way does not belong to him.
It does not belong to man who is walking even to direct his step.+
24  Correct me, O Jehovah, with judgment,

Mark 13:8 New International Version
Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be earthquakes in various places, and famines. These are the beginning of birth pains.

Yes Abe......there was much more to follow up after Civil War......but Jesus said tribulation must usher in the end of this satanic,independent,manmade world.And i am sure God will resurrect you and many others who have fallen asleep in death to learn the truth!!

Abe was a wise man.

So was Jesus!

He spoke of it very well on a daily basis in the model prayer <our father>

Comparing the two is like apples & Oranges. One is a finite creation, the other  The Author of Creation.

I didnt say Lincoln was wise......i said Jesus was....id be foolish to compare the 2 based on this what Lincoln said...

2. Lincoln didn’t believe blacks should have the same rights as whites.
Though Lincoln argued that the founding fathers’ phrase “All men are created equal” applied to blacks and whites alike, this did not mean he thought they should have the same social and political rights. His views became clear during an 1858 series of debates with his opponent in the Illinois race for U.S. Senate, Stephen Douglas, who had accused him of supporting “negro equality.” In their fourth debate, at Charleston, Illinois, on September 18, 1858, Lincoln made his position clear. “I will say then that I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races,” he began, going on to say that he opposed blacks having the right to vote, to serve on juries, to hold office and to intermarry with whites. What he did believe was that, like all men, blacks had the right to improve their condition in society and to enjoy the fruits of their labor. In this way they were equal to white men, and for this reason slavery was inherently unjust.

Jesus represented God...they saw it a little different.....

Jehovah sees what is in our heart. (1 Samuel 16:7; Proverbs 21:2) Peter next said: “In every nation the man that fears him and works righteousness is acceptable to him.” (Acts 10:35) To fear God means to respect, honor, and trust him, avoiding anything that displeases him. To work righteousness involves willingly doing what is right in God’s eyes. Jehovah finds pleasure in the man whose heart is filled with reverential awe that moves him to do what is right.—Deuteronomy 10:12, 13.
