For Southern rights hurrah!
Wars often involve moral muddles.
I believe God let the South lose in part because it had become so arrogant it forgot that it was unseemly before Christ, which almost all nominally worshiped, to treat men as slaves. Freedom doesn’t want to be hogged to an elite. It wants to embrace all it meets, or it is arrogance and not freedom at all.
What would a Dixie that was bent by heaven on “picking its own blessed cotton” have been like? It would have proceeded without at least one major curse it had. But we didn’t have that. We had a sinful Dixie that had to learn through suffering. And we still have sin that is bringing suffering upon America. Will we embrace Christ to deliver? My prayer is that God will so provide that the answer will be yes.
