It suggests that Lincoln's faith evolved over the course of his adult life from something resembling skepticism to something closer to orthodoxy, yet without ever falling neatly into conventional categories. The constant elements of his religion were a remarkable familiarity with the Bible, a strong commitment to reason, and an even stronger belief in the workings of Providence (but often a mysterious Providence). | ||
