Speaking technically, there is no support for insurrection against tyrants like Charles in Scripture, except in cases where leaders demand disobedience toward God. Jesus and His disciples were willing to rot in prisons and be executed in horrible ways, but never battled against Rome or any other tyrannical nation.

Sadly, even our own Constitution does not explicitly give the citizenry power to maintain this nation by force, so that is why it will continue to colapse until an evil war begins, or medieval tyrants arise.

You’ve obviously never read the comments made by the founding fathers concerning the 2nd amendment.
