A85177 The oppressed close prisoner in Windsor-Castle, his defiance to the father of lyes, in the strength of the God of truth. Occasioned by some late, scandalous and slanderous reports, raised and dispersed to the dishonour of that noble cause, wherein he (with others of the Lords servants) is so deeply engaged. As also, a seasonable word, concerning the higher powers: concerning the payment of taxes and tribute-money by the saints to those powers: and how far a minister of the Gospel may intermeddle in state-affairs without sin. / By Chr. Feake, in his prison-watch-tower. Feake, Christopher, fl. 1645-1660. 1654 (1654) Wing F572; Thomason E820_10; ESTC R202087 97,195 127

otherwise_o namely_o by_o read_v meditation_n imitation_n and_o exercise_v in_o preach_v they_o have_v excel_v many_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n true_o and_o proper_o so_o call_v and_o

or_o the_o spirit_n so_o it_o be_v frequent_o find_v that_o a_o man_n may_v be_v a_o able_a minister_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n according_a to_o the_o letter_n but_o not_o according_a to_o the_o spirit_n and_o the_o ministration_n thereof_o see_v the_o distinction_n rom._n 7.6_o &_o 2_o cor._n 3.6_o divers_a of_o these_o episcopal_a preacher_n indeed_o do_v likewise_o intermeddle_v in_o

the_o ministry_n or_o magistracy_n in_o both_o which_o they_o do_v intermeddle_v more_o than_o they_o will_v have_v thank_v for_o when_o they_o appear_v before_o the_o judgement_n seat_n of_o jesus_n

for_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o i_o hope_v be_v true_o godly_a but_o to_o speak_v free_o undoubted_o it_o will_v become_v those_o of_o they_o who_o know_v their_o lord_n will_v to_o take_v care_n to_o do_v it_o for_o it_o can_v be_v deny_v that_o they_o sinful_o intermeddle_v in_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o world_n though_o they_o pretend_v to_o be_v marry_v to_o the_o lord_n and_o so_o be_v to_o take_v care_n for_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o lord_n this_o be_v plain_a in_o regard_n they_o have_v accept_v several_a worldly_a office_n and_o authority_n which_o they_o exercise_v after_o the_o rudiment_n of_o the_o world_n for_o they_o can_v exercise_v they_o according_a to_o god_n or_o to_o christ_n for_o they_o be_v none_o of_o the_o thing_n of_o christ_n oh_o that_o they_o be_v far_o from_o imitate_v the_o apostle_n and_o walk_v in_o their_o step_n the_o lord_n know_v and_o we_o also_o for_o they_o give_v over_o the_o serve_n of_o table_n which_o yet_o be_v church-work_n that_o they_o may_v give_v themselves_o continual_o to_o prayer_n and_o to_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o word_n and_o therefore_o before_o i_o go_v any_o further_a i_o do_v public_o bear_v witness_n on_o the_o behalf_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n against_o all_o that_o kind_n of_o meddle_v in_o state-affair_n which_o do_v in_o the_o least_o hinder_v or_o interrupt_v the_o fervant_n of_o the_o lord_n in_o the_o exercise_n and_o improvement_n of_o that_o ministry_n which_o they_o have_v receive_v in_o the_o lord_n and_o for_o and_o from_o the_o lord_n for_o let_v we_o consider_v
