LINCOLN’S BIBLE
Abraham Lincoln’s well- thumbed Bible in the Lincoln Museum in Washington, among other things, would abundantly prove that he was a Christian. Listen to him, as on his way to be inaugurated, he utters these impressive words: “I go to assume a task more difficult than that which has devolved upon any other man since the days of Washington. He never would have succeeded but for the aid of Divine Providence, upon which he at all times relied. I feel that I cannot succeed without the same divine blessing which sustained him, and on the same Almighty Being I place my reliance for support. And I hope you, my friends, will all pray that I may receive the divine assistance, without which I cannot succeed, but with which success is certain.” Moody Monthly, 1956.
