Excuse me, but where in this thread have I advocated violence against the government? That's a bit of a stretch because this article is a theory attempting to diagnose not the spiritual state of the general population, but rather the adherence to a government that can be shown to be abusive.

Furthermore, how is observing that only someone who recognizes that they are in need of a savior can accept an offer to be saved a license to sin? {Can you save someone who refuses to believe that they need saved?}

You didn’t. But calling us hostages to the government might further license some to take up arms.

Plenty of talk on this board about revolution. Not you. I’ll give you that.
