You'll notice that Locke (1632-1704) and William Blackstone (1723-1780) were in agreement on natural law as something divinely ordained, as well as on the rights of citizens.  

However, they differed on the topic of popular sovereignty.  According to Sara Zeigler, writing for The First Amendment Encyclopedia, "Although Blackstone was heavily influenced by John Locke’s work, he found the concept of revolution troubling and acknowledged a right to revolution only in theory, contending that power returned to the people only when sovereign power had been utterly destroyed. Thus, as long as Parliament existed, its power remained absolute, a doctrine known as parliamentary sovereignty."   Blackstone did not support the ideas of full popular sovereignty and the people's right to revolt against a government in the way that Locke did.
