Let me ask all of you some questions:

1. Do you think today’s preachers are smarter, as smart or not as Scripturally smart as Preachers in the 1770's?

2. Do you think today’s politicians are smarter, as smart, or not as smart Constitutionally as politicians in the 1770's and the first days of our Republic?

3. If Revolution were legal, acceptable and encourage by both the politicians of the colonies and the preachers of the colonies in the 1770's, why is it unacceptable, and discouraged by both the preachers and the politicians today?

4. If Romans chapter 13 was not a problem to Christians revolting against the crown in the 1770's why is it today?

There have been many comments about the morality of the Revolution. I am not enough of a scholar on that issue . However many people discussing the legitimacy of the revoltion fail to read what the founders said about their justifications . This was written after Lexington. They question if God grants to government “unbounded authority never rightfully resistible, however severe and oppressive” or is it “instituted to promote the welfare of mankind”? They make the claim that their cause is the right cause “in defence of the freedom that is our birthright ....for the protection of our property against violence actually offered" .They say “ We fight not for glory or for conquest”.They fought for self defense . They claimed that their self defense was proportionate,a last resort to “submission to tyranny” . They believed their revolt was consistent with the Just War Theory .

As for Roman 13 ,the Divine Rights of Kings had already been consigned to the trash bin of history . The colonists were not anti-government . They were anti- tyranny . Maybe they were also reading Hebrews 11:24-35.They believed they were acting in good faith .

Very good and insightful tomder55. I thank you and count you as one of the very few who seem to understand that we are not forced, by the Christian Bible, to stand by and honor the likes of Clinton, Bush, Carter, obama and others who are clearly breakers of the Supreme Law of the Land, the US Constitution.

Note, Hebrews 11 is the By Faith chapter. tomder55 is correct in saying that the Founders also stepped out in faith.
