>>It worries me that they were told it was a legal problem and ignored the government which violates Romans 13.<<

Yeah, I guess according to you, the colonists should have submitted to religious tyranny too, and not fought the American Revolution, to adhere to Romans 13?

To: Do Not Make Fun Of His Ears

Rom 13:1-6 MKJV
(1) Let every soul be subject to the higher authorities. For there is no authority but of God; the authorities that exist are ordained by God.
(2) So that the one resisting the authority resists the ordinance of God; and the ones who resist will receive judgment to themselves.
(3) For the rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the bad. And do you desire to be not afraid of the authority? Do the good, and you shall have praise from it.
(4) For it is a servant of God to you for good. For if you practice evil, be afraid, for it does not bear the sword in vain; for it is a servant of God, a revenger for wrath on him who does evil.
(5) Therefore you must be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience’ sake.
(6) For because of this you also pay taxes. For they are God’s servants, always giving attention to this very thing.

In case you can’t tell, that’s not my handwriting. I didn’t write it. I’m just telling you what is says.
