Near the end of the civil War, Lincoln was confronted by an additional powerful adversary. The European Antichrist, also known as Napoleon III. Napoleon III was master of a mighty army and had already taken over most of Europe and a large portion of Asia. He was now threatening to invade the U.S. from Mexico and add America to his possessions. Throughout the rest of the world he was considered the Antichrist and his name even numbered 666. If Napoleon III would have succeeded with his plans to invade America, the Civil War might have been a mere footnote in history. The story of this...
