Submission to Tyrants is Rebellion to God : The Last Resistance: Thomas Jefferson, along with some others of the Founders, is credited with saying, “Resistance to Tyrants is obedience to God.” (It may have been an oft-repeated motto, much like our modern “They can have my gun when they pry it from my cold, dead hands.”)
Jefferson’s statement is Biblically correct. I’ve expended a lot of time and effort to prove that, as have others before me. I want to approach it from a different angle today.
Resistance to tyrants is obedience to God. That’s true as stated, but it is also true in its opposite, parallel form, like this:
Submission to tyrants is rebellion to God.
