Gulf of Tonkin incident

Explanation:

The Gulf of Tonkin incident was an important incident that led to the United States becoming more directly involved in the Vietnam War. The confrontation involved North Vietnam and the United States in the Gulf of Tonkin. At first, the United States had reported two attacks, and it also had blamed them on North Vietnam. However, as more facts were gathered, there was a widespread belief that at least one, if not both of the attacks were false. The same incident could take place in this example, unless enough information is gathered.

according to romans 13: 1-7, 1st peter 2: 12-14, and 1 timothy 2: 1-4, christians as citizens have specific responsibilities to a nation that gives liberties to its people. christians are obliged to live as good citizens by submitting to the human government. honor, or respect, is due to men in the high governmental station. a christian should reflect such respect not to gain some favor but because it is god’s will. peter 2: 14 notes that the purpose of the human government is to promote peace and justice in society. to submit to human government, peter includes three elements; obedience, respect, and good deeds.
