(13,990 posts)1. Divine Right of Kings
Divine Right of Kings asserts that a monarch is not accountable to any earthly authority because their right to rule is derived from divine authority. The monarch is not subject to We the People.
Only divine authority can judge a monarch, and any attempt to question, contradict, resist or restrict their authority runs contrary to God's will.
But remember, Trump is not a king, right? Right?

"God will not be mocked" -Galatians 6: 7
-The biblical principle stating that God cannot be ridiculed or treated with contempt without consequence.

.....yet HERE we are.
