The phrase “lord king David” is
found in 1 Kings Chapter 1 (vs. 31, 37, 43, 47)—this
is in the King James Bible. Well, King
James, who commissioned the 1611 translation, and of whom the Version’s namesake
comes from, is honored in the Mayflower Compact and called “Lord King
James”. Those Englishmen were honoring
their king (see 1 Pet. 2:17) like
the Israelites did for their king David (and there’s nothing wrong with that):
and those pilgrims learned about that from the Holy Bible that James had
translated. By the way, James is a
Biblical name, and the Mayflower Compact proves King James was the founding
monarch of America; and his Bible translation was completed approximately at the
same time. Also, Jesus Christ our
Saviour has a three part name: “Lord Jesus Christ”—this conveys the Trinity
(see 1 John 5:7 KJV). Amen.
