      😢Ephesians‬ ‭6:10‭-‬18‬ ‭Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints. The bible is no old book. You have to really let Christ open your eyes; to see the world in shambles. Many people say it's a religion to lock up people in chains, and say it's a rule book.. why? Because people hate hearing the truth, it hurts their flesh, it's hurts their pride, it's exposes on what things have they done..people love this world so much, s*x, money, power, women, supercars.. things of this world. Still trying to find something that can fill that emptiness in your heart. You can't find that in this world.. only in Christ, the bible is no chains, it's a chainbreaker. Breaking your sins into pieces... Repent now, and turn back to the true Lord only.. God bless.😊😊😊😊😊

    Abe Lincoln was ridiculously strong , despite his 6’4 spindly appearance, he was clad in lean muscle from decades of downing trees with his father in youth. The result was a man that, according to one account, could fell a tree with the efficiency of three men, and could wrestle nearly any man of his day and win.

      Science showed through DNA that he had Marfen's disease, which causes a person to grow abnormally tall with distorted features. I think he was 6'5, and the average guy in that era would have seen him as a giant. Combine that with fighting skills and f around and find out! Sad how he was killed by such a coward.

      Realistically, Washington or Lincoln. Assume we all have them in their prime, Washington and Lincoln are the biggest. Washington, like many presidents, was a military man, and Lincoln was a very talented wrestler. So, ultimately, I have to give it to Lincoln. I think bro puts Washington in a double leg and pounds the pudding out of him.

    So fun fact Abe Lincoln had many wrestling matches and fights in his lifetime.
    Once, when he was younger, a famous wrestler and him were scheduled to fight. Big bets got placed, there was a lot of hype.
    The match started, Abe picked the other guy up and threw him out of the ring.
    The crowd had expected a big fight and started to boo.
    Lincoln said something along the lines of "If you think you can do better, you can take his place."
    The offer was declined.

And he still found time to read plenty of books growing up and educated himself enough to become a lawyer and later a politician, despite growing up in poverty. Well-educated, level-headed, kind, and strong. A true renaissance man and a great leader in our history.
