Subject: Did American Revolution violate Rom 13:1 |
Bible Note: Did American Revolution violate Rom 13:1? Wilma, this question is moot, is it not? If it could be proven that the revolution violated Rom 13:1, then what should we do? Give the country back to the British? I don't mean to make light of your question, but, really, is it not moot? What is the practical significance of the question? No offense intended. Grace and peace to you, Kalos |
