Answer:

a. The time has come to unite for independence.

Explanation:

Thomas Paine’s common sense urged Americans to challenge the British government and ask for independence. Paine used a common language and biblical quotes so his book could reach a large group of people.

Paine also demonstrated that America had no interest in remaining tied to Britain and listed a series of advantages that the colony would have if it got independence.
