MONARCHY'S Vnconquerable Champion BEING Undeniable Strong and Powerful Collections gathered out of the Sacred Word of God intended for the Convincing of those Sinful Wretches hated by God himself and all good men who dares deny their Duty and Allegiance to their Gracious SOVERAIGN seeing we be all so expresly commanded and taught by the Holy-Prophets and Apostles that Excellent Principle of Loyalty and true Obedience as also by Our Lord and Saviour JESVS CHRIST himself who not only commands us to give CESAR his Due but leaves us his Blessed Example least we should offend to obey His VICE-GERENT but Our DREAD SOVERAIGN Diligently Collected and written by One or His Majesties Loyal Dutiful most humble and Obedient Subjects GEO. WOOD Gent. I counsel thee to keep the Kings Commardement and that in regard of the Oath of God Eccl. 8. v. 2.

Printed by H. Brugis for the Author ●●●5 TO THE SERENE HIGH and MIGHTY MONARCH JAMES II. OF GREAT BRITAIN FRANCE and IRELAND KING Defender of the Faith c. Royal Sir YOur MAJESTIES most Humble and faithful Loyal Subject though one of the meanest and weakest of Your MAJESTIES Servants do in all Humility make bold to lay down at your Royal Feet these my Weak Labours Humbly beseeching your Sacred MAJESTY to be Graciously pleased of your accustomed Goodness to take the same into your Protection it being so Sacred a Subject that properly the Dedication thereof belongs to no other than to your Royal Self And although by the Author it is done in Weakness yet the Matter is so powerfull strong and convincing being the express Words of the Prophets and Apostles Christ himself being the Chief Corner-Stone that by your Majesties Gracious Acceptance I shall not only be fortified against all that either Malice or Envy can object against me but likewise be Encouraged cheerfully to Publish the same for the good and satisfaction of your Majesties Loyal and Loving Subjects and I hope for the converting of those who dares deny their Allegiance to so Gracious a King and so pure a Government I being confident that after the perusal of this Book there is no person that owns himself a Christian although formerly never so much misled without GOD has left him absolutely to a Reprobate sence altogether for Damnation that will not own his errour and be heartily sorry that ever he was of a rebellious principle and earnestly beg GOD's and your Majesties pardon So humbly begging your Majesties Gracious Pardon for this my presumption I make bold to conclude with the sayings of the Servants of King David to their Lord the King at the Anointing of their Lord King Solomon only altering the names As the Lord hath been with My Lord KING CHARLES II. even so be He with His Royal Majesty KING JAMES II. and make your Throne greater than the Throne of My Lord KING CHARLES And let all your Majesties Loyal and Loving Subjects say Amen Amen which is and ever shall be the hearty Prayer of DREAD SOVERAIGN Your Sacred Majesties most Humble Dutiful Devouted and Faithful servant Geo. Wood. TO THE READER Courteous Reader WHen first I design'd the publishing of this Book I intended only to make a Loyal Copy-Book with this Sacred Subject the which I shall God willing with all convenient speed so effectually perform setting aside the subject-matter therein contained nothing inferiour without vanity to the best that have been made heretofore for the Education of Youth The which Book hath met with a kind acceptance from all that as yet have seen it but now for makeing of my work perfect and for the publique good I have ventured to go one step further which is to publish this Book likewise in Print having left out in my Loyal Coppy-Book so many powerful convincing Collections of Scripture which conveniently the Book could not contain The great and only Reason why I take upon me to Print and publish this Book is I being certain that there was never such an one presented to publique view before nor the more to be lamented a more needful time for so doing to convince those wicked Traitorous Rebels now too plentiful in his Majesties Dominions that has the impudence to call themselves Christians and yet at the same time wilfully denies their Duty and Allegiance to their lawful Soveraign in denying of which they most sinfully deny the sacred Scriptures and thereby certainly brings upon themselves without true Repentance everlasting damnation seeing that Monarchie is so absolutely grounded on God's holy word as this Loyal Book evidently makes appear It s likewise in my humble judgement a very necessary Book to be made use of by his Majesties Loyal and Loving Subjects they being thereby presently furnished with powerful Arguments out of the holy Scriptures for convincing of several persons who in charity I am bound to believe are really seduced by their sinful Teachers they knowing no better than to believe their Rebellious Deceitful Lying Canting stories murder and ruine being their true design when seriously considered for the Apostle Paul saith All Scripture is given by Inspiration of GOD and is profitable for Doctrine for Reproof for Correction for Instruction in Righteousness 2 Tim. Chap. 3. Ver. 16. And as for those Traitors and Rebels that so wilfully sins against Knowledg by all unlawful meanes their false hearts can devise endeavouring still to seduce His Majesties Subjects from their Allegience My Advice to them is seriously to peruse this Book For the Prophet Samuel tells them 1 Sam. 15. Chap. Ver. 22. 23. that To obey is better than Sacrifice and to hearken than the fat of Rams for Rebellion is as the Sin of Witchcraft and Stubbornness is as Iniquity and Idolatry And the Apostle Paul tells them Heb. 10. Chap. Ver. 26. If we Sin wilfully after we have received the Knowledg of the Truth there remaineth no more Sacrifice for Sins but a certain fearful looking-for of Judgment which shall devour the Adversaries It is my hearty Prayer that these powerful Scripture-Proofs with many more contained in this Sacred Book may so convince them of their errours that thereby from henceforth we may lead a peaceable and quiet Life in all godliness and honesty 1 Tim. 2 Chap. Ver. 2. the which we shall never be able effectually to obtain till we have all learned that excellent Precept given us likewise by the Apostle 1 Pet. 2. Chap. Ver. 17. To FEAR GOD and HONOUR THE KING Now to conclude this my Advice both to Seducers of His Majesties Subjects as also to those that is blindly lead by them it is my Request to them seriously to consider these two following passages of Scripture Deut. Chap. 32. Ver. 46 47. Set your hearts unto all the Words which I

neither hast asked Riches for thy self nor hast asked the life of thine Enemies but hast asked for thy self Understanding to discern Judgment 12. Behold I have done according to thy Word Lo I have given thee a Wise and an Understanding Heart so that there was none like thee before thee neither after thee shall arise any like unto thee 13. And I have also given thee that which thou hast not asked Both Riches and Honour So that there shall not be any among the Kings like unto thee 14. And if thou wilk walk in my ways to keep my Statutes and my Commandements as thy Father David did walk then I will lengthen thy Dayes 28.

And if thou wilt Walk before me as David thy Father Walked in integrity of heart and in uprightness to do all that I have Commanded thee and will keep my Statutes and my Judgments 5.
