There are seven sovereigns of the law. The Courts, the Legislatures, the Executive. Times two -- State and Federal. That makes six. Each failed to stop this murder.

That leaves only the seventh. The People. Us. Each individually.

If we fail to acknowledge, lament, and correct for this murder -- what then? What divine mercy or patience could then be left for our nation?

The original American idea had only One Sovereign. It was not the Courts, the Legislatures, or the Executives, or even we The People.

April 18, 1775 John Adams and John Hancock were at the home of Rev. Jonas Clarke, a Lexington pastor and militia leader. That same night Paul Revere arrived to warn them of the approaching Redcoats. The next morning British Major Pitcairn shouted to an assembled regiment of Minutemen; "Disperse, ye villains, lay down your arms in the name of George the Sovereign King of England." The immediate response was:

"We recognize no Sovereign but God and no King but Jesus."

At the signing of the Declaration of Independence Samuel Adams said:

"We have this day restored the Sovereign to Whom all men ought to be obedient. He reigns in heaven and from the rising to the setting of the sun, let His kingdom come.
