But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God's own possession, so that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who has called you out of darkness and into His marvelous light. I Peter 2:9
Robin Hood and his merry men are primarily remembered as those who would "rob from the rich and give to the poor." In fact, this group of people were loyal to King Richard who was away on the Crusades. His evil brother Prince John usurped the throne and afflicted the poor. Robin was loyal to his absent King until he returned, helping the poor, and then he bowed before him. In the Kingdom of God, our King Jesus has went away. While He is in heaven, Satan has tried to usurp His kingdom. As God's royal priesthood, we are commissioned to resist the devil and help the poor until He returns. May we defend the kingdom until He returns when we will bow before Him. Be merry men
