I think that the most obvious effect that the Mayflower Compact had on the Declaration of Independence was that without the Compact, which acknowledged the sovereignty of the British Crown, there would have been no need to declare independence 150 years later. As far as similarities to the Constitution, I don't see them. The Constitution created a limited government, with no authority over it within lose limitations. The Compact created a government without limitations other than "majority rules", with another unlimited government (the Crown) above it. Near as I can see, they could have just stayed in England and had all that.

When Paul arrived in Rome, who did he tell the leading men of the Jews would listen to his message of salvation?

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

Paul said that the Gentiles will listen to the message of Salvation, to the leading men of the Jews.

Explanation:

The reference of this instance can be found in the book of Acts 28:17-31.

After the ship, on which Paul was traveling, was wintered on an island, he was taken to Rome. So, when he arrived there he called the leaders of Jews to preach the message of salvation, that comes from believing in Christ. After Paul explained to them the message of Christ, some Jews believed on the message while others rejected.

To this Paul said to the leading men of the Jews that the message of salvation will be listened by Gentiles. [Acts 28:28] (Paul was appointed by God to preach among the Gentiles.)

Thus according to Paul, Gentiles will listen to the message of salvation.

Knowing absolutely nothing about any of these events- obviously, "C". Is the only event necessarily capable of unifying a country.

Nothing can possibly unite a country like overthrowing and kicking out foreign rulers! 

A- No appointed ruler can satisfy all factions. 

B- As above, so below. 

D- Beside the fact that one guy arming himself is not going to make everybody happy, that he had to do it secretly implies that he must not have had all the country behind him.
