The 2 Opposing Principle's

“The principle of Rome is the abject slavery of the mind; the principle

of the United States [Biblical Protestantism] is the absolute freedom of the mind.” 

(The Two Republics—Or Rome and the United States, p. 5. A.T. Jones, Review and Herald Publishing Association, Battle Creek, Michigan, 1891).

So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the royal law of liberty. 

James 2:12
