was this country the USA founded on a just war policy?
it seems to me it was founded on a rebellion of the english government God had first placed . And there for a rebellion against God's commands on how we are to act torward government authorities God placed over us.

Didn't that english government establish colonial governments and then revoke the authority and rights previously granted to those colonies? Didn't those colonial governments then have the authority and the right to sever their relationship with the British Crown? Didn't the citizens of those newly independent states have the Christian duty to defend their states from foreign attack?


I was taught in "public school" that the reason for the rebelion was over a tea tax. They taught me it was called the boston tea party . it was american history class.
It was a citizen rebellion. Not a government rebellion.

but you bring up some interesting point's
I guess you are saying than the south had a right to a confiderate government.Since the u.s. government latter gave states also the right to govern?
well I honestly do not know.

well getting back to the main point. I was taught in american history the rebellion was over a tea tax. And from What I was taught it was a "citizen" rebellion Not a govern ment rebelling against another Government.
perhaps I and many other's were taught incorrectly?


Chief of sinner's though I be, Jesus still died for me.
