and_o christ_n be_v ill_o couple_v in_o this_o question_n because_o the_o law_n &_o the_o prophet_n be_v until_o john_n and_o so_o their_o action_n can_v be_v bring_v in_o as_o witness_n with_o christ_n 2._o whether_o christ_n do_v not_o except_v against_o the_o magistrate_n power_n in_o religion_n in_o that_o distinction_n give_v unto_o caesar_n the_o thing_n that_o be_v caesar_n etc._n etc._n be_v not_o give_v caesar_n his_o due_a a_o give_v god_n his_o due_a what_o difference_n can_v there_o be_v between_o god_n due_a and_o caesar_n due_a but_o only_o that_o of_o matter_n of_o

that_o be_v in_o christ_n be_v in_o the_o prophet_n 1._o pet._n 1.11_o ad._n 2._o i_o can_v conceive_v what_o objection_n against_o the_o magistrate_n power_n can_v be_v gather_v out_o of_o mat._n 22.21_o the_o scope_n of_o the_o place_n be_v no_o more_o than_o that_o the_o maintain_n of_o god_n service_n must_v not_o excuse_v they_o from_o maintain_v the_o civil_a power_n for_o they_o be_v caesar_n subject_n and_o therefore_o must_v pay_v tribute_n to_o caesar_n and_o though_o in_o give_v caesar_n his_o due_a in_o some_o sense_n they_o give_v god_n his_o due_n because_o magistracy_n be_v a_o ordinance_n of_o god_n yet_o this_o be_v not_o god_n whole_a due_n for_o the_o ministry_n be_v likewise_o a_o ordinance_n of_o god_n and_o i_o think_v the_o payment_n towards_o the_o maintain_n of_o god_n service_n be_v easy_o to_o be_v discern_v from_o caesar_n tribute_n and_o may_v be_v call_v god_n due_a in_o a_o peculiar_a manner_n but_o none_o so_o blind_a as_o those_o that_o

by_o answer_v to_o court_n that_o question_v they_o concern_v their_o religion_n be_v guilty_a of_o blasphemy_n whether_o paul_n count_v himself_o happy_a in_o that_o he_o shall_v answer_v before_o
