these_o three_o position_n 1._o man_n command_n oblige_v not_o the_o conscience_n direct_o and_o immediate_o as_o god_n command_n do_v but_o by_o the_o intervention_n of_o god_n command_n it_o be_v the_o command_n of_o god_n that_o bind_v my_o conscience_n to_o observe_v any_o command_n of_o man_n submit_v yourselves_o to_o every_o ordinance_n of_o man_n 8.10_o 1_o pet._n 2_o 1●_n eccles_n 8.10_o for_o the_o lord_n sake_n say_v the_o apostle_n peter_n keep_v the_o king_n commandment_n and_o that_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o oath_n of_o god_n i._n e._n not_o only_o for_o fear_n of_o man_n but_o also_o and_o chief_o for_o fear_v of_o wrong_v thy_o conscience_n towards_o god_n 2._o humane_a law_n bound_v not_o the_o conscience_n universal_o and_o unlimited_o as_o the_o law_n of_o god_n do_v i_o must_v examine_v the_o constitution_n of_o man_n by_o the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o see_v whether_o they_o be_v righteous_a or_o no_o whether_o they_o be_v not_o contrary_a to_o god_n law_n and_o if_o i_o find_v they_o so_o i_o be_o bind_v in_o conscience_n to_o deny_v active_a obedience_n 3._o the_o command_v of_o man_n do_v not_o bind_v absolute_o as_o the_o law_n of_o god_n do_v there_o may_v be_v a_o due_a subjection_n in_o some_o case_n unto_o man_n by_o suffer_v the_o penalty_n though_o obedience_n be_v withhold_v the_o result_n of_o all_o be_v this_o that_o no_o voice_n but_o the_o voice_n of_o god_n must_v be_v hear_v in_o the_o conscience_n as_o command_v there_o and_o bind_v indispensible_o to_o obedience_n and_o let_v i_o add_v this_o that_o it_o be_v antichristian_a for_o man_n to_o set_v up_o their_o own_o will_n as_o a_o rule_n of_o sin_n and_o duty_n to_o take_v it_o upon_o they_o to_o give_v law_n to_o the_o conscience_n this_o be_v st._n paul_n his_o character_n of_o antichrist_n that_o he_o as_o god_n 2.4_o 2_o thes_n 2.4_o sit_v in_o the_o temple_n of_o god_n i._n e._n in_o the_o church_n he_o sit_v as_o god_n i._n e._n say_v diodate_v make_v himself_o absolute_a lord_n of_o conscience_n bring_v they_o to_o his_o obedience_n the_o set_n up_o of_o another_o lawgiver_n than_o christ_n be_v proper_o antichristianism_n what_o say_v calvin_n as_o long_o as_o the_o pope_n exercise_v tyranny_n over_o the_o conscience_n we_o shall_v not_o cease_v to_o call_v he_o antichrist_n nay_o we_o shall_v go_v further_o say_v he_o and_o call_v they_o member_n of_o antichrist_n who_o take_v such_o snare_n upon_o their_o conscience_n now_o affirmative_o and_o positive_o concern_v this_o question_n of_o the_o bind_a power_n of_o humane_a law_n in_o the_o conscience_n i_o conclude_v thus_o that_o all_o law_n and_o command_n of_o man_n in_o power_n to_o which_o the_o order_n of_o the_o power_n do_v rightful_o and_o due_o extend_v itself_o be_v to_o be_v obey_v for_o conscience_n sake_n and_o all_o such_o constitution_n of_o man_n as_o be_v fundamental_o or_o reductive_o and_o interpretative_o the_o command_n of_o god_n or_o which_o enjoin_v that_o which_o have_v allowance_n from_o the_o word_n of_o god_n all_o such_o have_v a_o bind_a power_n in_o the_o court_n of_o conscience_n not_o direct_o and_o immediate_o indeed_o upon_o account_n of_o man_n ordination_n as_o they_o be_v humane_a ordinance_n but_o as_o they_o be_v god_n his_o law_n propound_v and_o enforce_v by_o a_o civil_a sanction_n and_o as_o they_o fall_v in_o duty_n under_o that_o general_a command_n of_o obey_v those_o that_o be_v over_o we_o in_o the_o lord_n prop._n now_o i_o come_v to_o prove_v and_o demonstrate_v the_o point_n which_o have_v be_v open_v that_o every_o soul_n must_v be_v subject_a to_o the_o high_a power_n i_o e._n every_o person_n must_v reverence_v and_o obey_v ruler_n and_o magistrate_n proof_n
