The British described the War for Independence as a 'Presbyterian parson's rebellion,' because of the overwhelming influence of the American clergy on our battle for freedom. But was the War biblically justified? Could the actions of the Founding Fathers be described as justifiable self-defense or as rebellion? When, if ever, is it lawful to resist authority? How should we apply the principles of submission to authority as articulated in Romans 13 and elsewhere in Scripture? In this well-reasoned lecture, Dr. Joe Morecraft presents the biblical and historical Reformation view. 1 CD. 1 hour, 20 minutes.
