Best Answer

The Republican Party was formed with an anti-slavery third party following the Second Great Awakening, which led to a revived interest in Christian welfare. You notice it in the songs of the time, Amazing Grace, Battle Hymn of the Republic. Gradually the movement was so popular that it grew into a mainstream party and evolved over time to what it is today
