You don’t have to sound all bitter and angry. I’m giving you why I believe what I believe, this is my understanding. I guess you feel you have the right to tell me what I believe is wrong. Do you what you feel....
Like I said before, I’d like to have a civil discourse, and I was told, that’s what we’re here for. Apparently, the only civil discourse we can talk about is when people agree with the majority opinion. Well, that’s not how it rolls my friend.
I told you why I believe america was founded on rebellion, I don’t believe they followed the Holy Ghost to fight against their authority. When we follow our flesh it leads to rebellion, I was taught that by apostolic preachers. So, if your upset with me, go talk to D.C Moody, O.R Fauss, Wayne Bellew, I can give you a list to go on and on. These men taught me to following my flesh leads to rebellion. Now, anyone that would like to have a discussion, was the American Revolution of the Holy Ghost or man? Do you believe, the Holy Ghost instructed this men to kill their authority, because of being taxed????

Bitter? Angry? Hardly. More like slightly amused.
I'm telling you that your understanding of authority, rebellion, etc, is not aligned with the Word of God. Therefore, it follows as a matter of logical necessity that your opinions on the subject carry no weight.
As for "why (you) believe America was founded on (sinful) rebellion", it doesn't really matter because your opinion of that is based on a series of compounding errors regarding the Bible doctrine of authority and moral obligation in general, the Bible doctrine of the lesser magistracy (human government), and the historical facts concerning the American War of Independence. You seem ignorant of the fact that the colonists did NOT kill King George, overthrow Parliament, or even their own colonial governments. Now, you can believe unicorns fart rainbows while singing God Save The King, but it really doesn't matter.
Once again, you have spent several pages of NOT showing the Scriptures that teach what you teach. Once again, you have your opinion which you believe is truth, and that apparently you have no obligation to provide book, chapter, and verse showing your INTERPRETATION of Samuel's statement is the truth.
Which means neither I, nor anyone else, has any obligation to take your pronouncements seriously.
