Subject: Did American Revolution violate Rom 13:1 |
Bible Note: Hi wilma, I've been following this dialog to some extent:-) It is an interesting question posed- and I think it has been answered? How do you get to, "The majority of "Christians" in Germany in the late 1930's rationalized their allegiance to the Nazi regime."?? Are you saying that we or a majority of Christians in America are the same as those in 1930's era Germany? I guess I'm missing the connection between the actions of our forefathers in the American Revolution and where we're at now in the 21st Century. Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
