Explanation:

Lynching was a brutal, racist, criminal,  irrational act. Very often , the victims had done nothing wrong. As historians broadly say, lynching was a method of social and racial control and intimidation, it meant to terrorize black Americans and force them into submission, into accepting an inferior racial caste position. This "mob justice" often went unpunished. Many people would take pieces of flesh and bones of lynched victims as "souvenirs."

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.
