Rights are defined by the entity that grants and enforces them - and different entities bestows different rights as they choose.
My bank bestows my right to access my money
My employer bestows my right to the benefits they offer
God bestows my right to serve him
U.S. Government bestows rights to income tax deductions
There are no universal rights that all human beings on the planet share - in spite of our founing fathers' attempt to define such a set - they could only actually GRANT those rights within the jurisdiction they helped create.
God can offer rights under a covenent with him - but if folks reject that covenant, they reject the rights offered too.
