The American Citizen. A Discourse on the Nature and Extent of our Religious Subjection to the Government Under Which we Live: Including an Inquiry Int (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781175011824)

"The American Citizen: A Discourse on the Nature and Extent of our Religious Subjection to the Government Under Which we Live," including an inquiry into the Scriptural authority of that provision of the Constitution of the United States, examines the intersection of religious belief and civic duty in 19th-century America. This discourse, delivered by John M. Krebs, delves into the complex relationship between the individual's religious obligations and their responsibilities as citizens under the U.S. Constitution.

Krebs navigates the delicate balance between spiritual convictions and adherence to governmental laws, specifically focusing on the constitutional provisions relevant to this dynamic. This work offers valuable insights into the historical context of American citizenship, the role of religion in shaping civic life, and the interpretation of constitutional principles during a pivotal era in American history. It serves as a compelling resource for understanding the intellectual and theological debates surrounding citizenship and governance in the mid-19th century.
