Matthew 12:22 "Then was brought unto him one possessed with a devil, blind, and dumb: and he healed him, insomuch that the blind and dumb both spake and saw."
If Lincoln said he lifted his "house divided" line from Matthew 22 then he was an infidel. Fortunately he was neither.
The “Jesus and Beelzebul” passage begins at Matthew 12:22 and runs to 37. Guess in yankeeland they didn’t teach you to read farther before declaring yourself an expert.
As for Lincoln’s religion, or rather lack of it, two of his closest friends insisted that like themselves Lincoln was not a Christian believer. One was Lincoln’s law partner William Herndon and the other Lincoln’s friend and bodyguard Ward Lamon.
