The correct answer is C) Lincoln makes inferences based on the order of events as a rhetorical strategy to persuade his audience to side with his point of view. The statement that best explains why the order of events is important in the "house divided" speech is "Lincoln makes inferences based on the order of events as a rhetorical strategy to persuade his audience to side with his point of view." On June 16, 1858, Abraham Lincoln delivered the speech known as "House Divided," when he accepted the Republican nomination to compete for the Senate. In the speech, Lincoln makes very clear the danger and the consequences for the country if slavery kept on dividing the country. Lincoln got inspiration for the famous speech from the Gospel of Mark 3:25 when Mark cites Jesus saying "And if a house divided against itself, that house cannot stand."
