So we are bound by the Mayflower Compact to remain British subjects and honor the king?

That would be the Christian thing to do, remain loyal to the king. In fact it's pretty much required by the Bible.

The Mayflower compact is not a founding document of the USA. It's a collectivist document that said each would share in the communities production. It established communal farming and lead to a famine in the first year. Much of it was soon dropped. Private property was then established, and productivity soared.
