note_v to_o who_o our_o lord_n speak_v for_o he_o do_v not_o instruct_v the_o magistrate_n or_o ruler_n in_o their_o duty_n which_o be_v not_o present_a to_o his_o sermon_n for_o he_o speak_v to_o his_o disciple_n and_o the_o people_n which_o have_v no_o authority_n and_o single_v they_o out_o a_o vobis_fw-la dico_fw-la i_o say_v to_o you_o so_o the_o disciple_n and_o the_o multitude_n which_o bear_v no_o office_n 27._o be_v forbid_v to_o revenge_v private_a injury_n offer_v four_o christ_n disciple_n and_o the_o multitude_n do_v dream_n of_o a_o external_a and_o political_a kingdom_n of_o the_o 4_o messiah_n which_o shall_v be_v arm_v with_o external_a and_o kingly_a power_n and_o authority_n and_o vanquish_v their_o enemy_n but_o christ_n here_o foretell_v that_o they_o must_v look_v for_o no_o such_o thing_n no_o such_o bodily_a saviour_n but_o rather_o prepare_v themselves_o to_o suffer_v smiting_n on_o the_o cheek_n and_o spoil_v of_o good_n and_o bitter_a injury_n and_o reproach_n neither_o should-they_a receive_v assistance_n of_o the_o magistrate_n themselves_o ult._n which_o be_v call_v the_o shield_n of_o the_o earth_n but_o rather_o have_v lay_v upon_o their_o

for_o to_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o world_n his_o kingdom_n appear_v not_o if_o 36._o my_o kingdom_n be_v of_o this_o world_n then_o will_v my_o minister_n fight_v for_o i_o that_o i_o shall_v not_o be_v deliver_v to_o the_o jew_n different_a from_o this_o estate_n be_v earthly_a kingdom_n which_o be_v order_v under_o wholesome_a defence_n of_o law_n and_o authority_n and_o power_n temporal_a which_o yet_o as_o we_o have_v show_v be_v the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n therefore_o he_o which_o be_v a_o freedenizon_a of_o heaven_n and_o of_o the_o house_n and_o family_n of_o god_n may_v be_v also_o a_o citizen_n in_o a_o earthly_a corporation_n and_o estate_n as_o s._n paul_n 25._o prove_v himself_o a_o citizen_n of_o rome_n and_o appeal_v to_o caesar_n judgement_n seat_n act_v 25._o 10._o i_o can_v forbear_v to_o speak_v whether_o the_o pharisee_n pervert_v with_o false_a gloss_v the_o law_n of_o moses_n or_o our_o adversary_n the_o word_n of_o christ._n saint_n peter_n from_o who_o the_o pope_n challenge_v his_o high_a supremacy_n can_v not_o find_v exemption_n from_o the_o magistrate_n allow_v he_o out_o of_o these_o word_n of_o christ_n but_o be_v content_v to_o be_v under_o authoritative_a correction_n of_o heathen_a ruler_n so_o be_v all_o the_o apostle_n but_o peter_n successor_n have_v shake_v off_o all_o authority_n of_o christian_a magistrate_n i_o pray_v you_o of_o what_o scripture_n savour_v this_o style_n to_o be_v judge_v of_o none_o well_o let_v we_o grant_v the_o pope_n this_o liberty_n to_o be_v free_a of_o all_o sovereignty_n temporal_a and_o since_o it_o must_v needs_o so_o be_v let_v all_o the_o shave_a priest_n have_v immunity_n from_o all_o secular_a power_n and_o not_o only_o challenge_v this_o prerogative_n when_o the_o magistrate_n may_v seem_v to_o offer_v they_o injustice_n and_o wrong_n but_o in_o case_n in_o which_o themselves_o stand_v guilty_a of_o most_o notorious_a crime_n but_o whence_o have_v he_o learn_v to_o be_v above_o all_o authority_n nay_o who_o give_v the_o beast_n with_o the_o great_a horn_n power_n to_o push_v king_n out_o of_o their_o throne_n to_o depose_v the_o magistrate_n to_o stop_v the_o ordinary_a course_n of_o justice_n to_o maintain_v the_o subject_n in_o disobedience_n to_o assoil_v they_o of_o their_o oath_n of_o allegiance_n and_o how_o be_v it_o find_v a_o act_n meritorious_a to_o murder_v king_n a_o point_n of_o high_a godliness_n to_o lay_v wicked_a hand_n upon_o the_o anoint_a minister_n of_o god_n if_o there_o be_v any_o light_n in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n if_o any_o truth_n 4._o in_o the_o truth_n hence_o may_v we_o know_v that_o man_n of_o sin_n which_o be_v a_o adversary_n and_o exalt_v himself_o 〈◊〉_d above_o all_o that_o be_v god_n for_o if_o the_o magistrate_n be_v god_n on_o earth_n as_o christ_n himself_o say_v and_o shall_v be_v show_v the_o pope_n extol_v himself_o above_o all_o authority_n of_o earthly_a prince_n advance_v himself_o above_o all_o that_o be_v god_n on_o earth_n and_o if_o christ_n be_v the_o king_n of_o heaven_n which_o flat_o deny_v his_o kingdom_n to_o be_v of_o this_o world_n the_o pope_n by_o join_v to_o the_o spiritual_a the_o temporal_a sword_n exalt_v himself_o above_o all_o that_o be_v god_n in_o heaven_n well_o ay_o i_o leave_v you_o to_o consider_v further_o this_o i_o dare_v say_v he_o will_v take_v no_o blow_n on_o the_o cheek_n for_o our_o present_a matter_n in_o hand_n we_o stand_v by_o these_o assure_a that_o the_o magistrate_n authority_n be_v warrant_v by_o god_n and_o to_o this_o end_n to_o punish_v the_o doer_n of_o evil_a and_o therefore_o it_o be_v lawful_a by_o authority_n of_o god_n word_n for_o any_o that_o be_v wrong_v to_o seek_v that_o ordinance_n for_o redress_n only_o we_o be_v forbid_v to_o avenge_v ourselves_o therefore_o the_o 18._o widow_n do_v not_o offend_v which_o seek_v the_o injust_a judge_n now_o private_a revenging_n draw_v friend_n on_o both_o side_n and_o party_n and_o confederacy_n and_o so_o the_o resist_n of_o the_o evil_n be_v a_o cause_n to_o spread_v it_o further_o but_o when_o the_o magistrate_n punish_v no_o man_n take_v part_n no_o man_n resist_v no_o man_n be_v offend_v only_o the_o evil_n be_v take_v away_o and_o the_o delinquent_n by_o exemplary_a justice_n do_v make_v a_o terror_n to_o all_o offender_n but_o you_o will_v say_v 18._o vengeance_n be_v i_o say_v the_o lord_n true_a but_o god_n himself_o say_v that_o they_o which_o 6._o bear_v rule_n be_v god_n and_o christ_n himself_o 35._o so_o interpret_v that_o scripture_n therefore_o when_o they_o strike_v god_n strike_v when_o they_o 4._o kill_v god_n kill_v they_o have_v his_o sword_n they_o have_v his_o ordinance_n they_o have_v his_o seat_n they_o have_v a_o special_a 6._o name_n they_o have_v a_o special_a 3_o anoint_v from_o he_o therefore_o they_o be_v free_a from_o offend_v when_o they_o 16._o kill_v offender_n or_o evil_a doer_n of_o that_o law_n which_o say_v thou_o shall_v not_o kill_v and_o that_o commandment_n of_o not_o resist_v evil_a bind_v not_o they_o nay_o rather_o they_o high_o sin_n against_o god_n if_o they_o resist_v it_o not_o we_o have_v it_o then_o most_o evident_a what_o christ_n intend_v when_o he_o say_v resist_v not_o evil_a for_o when_o we_o have_v receive_v wrong_n and_o be_v destitute_a of_o help_n from_o the_o magistrate_n then_o ought_v we_o not_o to_o avenge_v ourselves_o and_o by_o private_a resistance_n requite_v evil_a with_o evil_n but_o to_o compose_v ourselves_o to_o meekness_n and_o patience_n in_o forbear_v to_o forgive_v our_o enemy_n and_o not_o only_o to_o temper_v from_o all_o outward_a force_n but_o to_o quench_v all_o inward_a and_o inordinate_a heat_n burn_v to_o revenge_v we_o must_v keep_v the_o peace_n of_o christ_n either_o by_o public_a resist_n or_o private_a forbear_n and_o rather_o suffer_v the_o loss_n of_o our_o life_n than_o to_o have_v the_o sweet_a fruit_n of_o quiet_a patience_n destroy_v in_o us._n if_o spitting_n smiting_n wound_n killing_n may_v shake_v our_o hope_n or_o take_v away_o the_o comfort_n of_o god_n spirit_n who_o can_v be_v christ_n disciple_n we_o may_v keep_v god_n peace_n in_o war_n no_o tumult_n no_o fire_n or_o sword_n of_o our_o enemy_n can_v take_v it_o from_o us._n for_o he_o we_o serve_v for_o save_v our_o soul_n and_o for_o a_o

that_o kill_v the_o body_n touch_v not_o the_o soul_n must_v the_o follower_n of_o christ_n go_v to_o heaven_n by_o a_o common_a way_n shall_v those_o constant_a patient_n which_o be_v in_o the_o
