At Gettysburg, Lincoln resolved that "this nation, under God,"
would not perish, and in his Second Inaugural he called for
"firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right." Fornieri
shows that Lincoln presented a comprehensive and compelling
interpretation of political order founded upon American democratic
and religious traditions. He also demonstrates the sincerity of
Lincoln's belief and reveals the remarkable consistency between his
public and private religious views. Fornieri casts Lincoln's unique
combination of politics and piety as "biblical republicanism" - a
merging of Judeo-Christian beliefs and the founders' tradition of
self-government. In a time of unprecedented crisis and upheaval,
biblical republicanism provided Lincoln with a moral justification
for difficult political choices. "Abraham Lincoln's Political
Faith" sheds new light on how the Great Emancipator's personal
trust in a living God shaped his vision for a new America.
