Why did the white people in the south believe that their liberty is the continuation of slavery?
Slave owners did not believe that slavery was a necessary commodity towards securing their liberty. They believed that slavery was a necessary commodity towards their prosperity. When the anti-slavery movement had grown big enough to threaten those States who sanctioned slavery with Amendment prohibiting that slavery, slave owners began to cry states rights. If these Southern "gentlemen" were so concerned about States rights they would have better convinced a dubious populace of this by freeing the slaves they held before going to war, civil war, with those who sought to bring freedom to all people. States rights is a very valid issue and concern under the federal government devised by the Constitution and it is shameful this right was asserted to justify slavery.

What was the difference between abolitionists and people who were anti slavery?
In the years leading up to (and also including) the American Civil War, opponents of the Southern way of life were not completely of one mind. Those who belonged to the "anti-slavery" camp generally opposed slavery but, often if not always, were content to allow it to remain in the South. Those who were "abolitionists" were much more zealous: they sought to eradicate slavery in all of its forms, even if that meant revolutionizing (or even destroying) Southern life in its antebellum form. The abolitionists demanded an immediate end to slavery regardless of the consequences. People such as Lincoln believed a gradual end to slavery, with compensation to the slave owners was a good idea. Once the US Civil War began all that changed.
