What reading level is The Soul of Abraham Lincoln book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If God possessed immortality and intended it for man, then God would make His decree effective in man. Adam's fall could not hopelessly lose to man what God designed ; and, whether he accepted for himself or not the theory of the fall and of redemption, he accepted both in meeting an argument which by reason of the fall could have deprived man of his birthright of immortality.
He believed in the immortality of the soul.
Did he harmonize that doctrine with the rest of his creed ?
Probably not. H...e was no theologian, in the strict and formal sense, no logician. He reasoned on the basis of very simple and. elementary principles, whose lines of direction were deter- mined by the early Calvinistic preaching to which he listened, the rationalistic method which he learned from Paine, and his simple sense of justice and right.
His was not wholly an optimistic faith. He knew that man was sinful and sad and that " the spirit of mortal " had little occasion for pride; but he believed in an eternal justice and an unconquerable goodness, regnant above the perplexities and contradictions of this life, and triumphant in the life ever- lasting.
