great_a one_o have_v do_v before_o they_o so_o that_o in_o the_o word_n we_o have_v the_o excellency_n of_o magistracy_n set_v forth_o by_o two_o title_n 1._o they_o be_v go_n 2._o son_n of_o the_o most_o high_a 1._o they_o be_v god_n locum_fw-la not_o by_o nature_n for_o we_o see_v they_o die_v but_o by_o similitude_n and_o in_o respect_n of_o their_o office_n because_o they_o represent_v god_n

and_o in_o this_o respect_n it_o be_v that_o magistrate_n be_v call_v the_o son_n of_o god_n for_o as_o parent_n give_v some_o part_n of_o their_o inheritance_n to_o their_o child_n so_o the_o almighty_a have_v invest_v magistrate_n with_o part_n of_o his_o power_n and_o sovereignty_n and_o entrust_v they_o with_o the_o administration_n of_o his_o earthly_a kingdom_n by_o the_o exercise_n of_o vindictive_a and_o remunerative_a justice_n now_o some_o conceive_v that_o magistrate_n be_v call_v the_o son_n of_o god_n because_o they_o be_v more_o dear_a to_o god_n and_o more_o acceptable_a to_o he_o then_o other_o man_n but_o that_o will_v not_o hold_v for_o in_o this_o very_a psalm_n where_o he_o call_v they_o god_n yet_o he_o sharp_o reprove_v they_o for_o their_o unrighteous_a practice_n and_o if_o ruler_n be_v wicked_a they_o bring_v more_o dishonour_n to_o god_n and_o do_v more_o mischief_n then_o inferior_a person_n can_v do_v and_o so_o their_o person_n be_v more_o

be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n in_o a_o double_a sense_n 1._o as_o believer_n 2._o as_o magistrate_n and_o so_o they_o be_v near_o and_o dear_a to_o god_n then_o ordinary_a man_n they_o be_v as_o the_o signet_n on_o his_o right_a hand_n ever_o in_o his_o eye_n he_o look_v upon_o they_o as_o his_o ornament_n man_n as_o the_o devil_n use_v all_o mean_n to_o get_v man_n of_o power_n and_o part_n on_o his_o side_n that_o he_o may_v the_o better_o advance_v his_o kingdom_n so_o god_n delight_v in_o gracious_a magistrate_n as_o the_o pillar_n and_o upholder_n of_o his_o kingdom_n in_o the_o world_n the_o more_o of_o god_n dwell_v in_o any_o the_o more_o he_o love_v they_o if_o magistrate_n who_o be_v god_n in_o name_n do_v resemble_v god_n indeed_o in_o wisdom_n justice_n purity_n clemency_n

therefore_o it_o be_v but_o equity_n that_o they_o shall_v employ_v that_o power_n which_o they_o have_v receive_v from_o his_o goodness_n to_o the_o praise_n of_o he_o that_o give_v it_o 3._o here_o
