A Self-Defensive War Lawful (Revolutionary War Sermon, Modern English)

Listen to a Revolutionary War sermon updated to modern english.
In this sermon, Reverend John Carmichael argued for the moral and religious justification of a war fought for self-defense. This sermon, delivered in the early stages of the American Revolution, was aimed at justifying the actions of the American colonists against the British.
Carmichael used biblical references and Christian theology to make his case. He argued that when a nation or people are threatened, it is not only lawful but also a moral duty to defend themselves. He stated that God does not condemn those who fight for their rights, freedom, and safety. He also used historical examples to illustrate his points.
He emphasized that the war the American colonists were fighting was not a war of aggression or conquest, but a war of defense against tyranny and oppression. He urged his audience, which included a company of militia, to stand firm in their duty and not to lose faith, asserting that God would be on their side in this righteous struggle.
Carmichael's sermon was a significant contribution to the moral and ideological justification of the American Revolution, providing a religious perspective that supported the colonists' cause.
