the_o opinion_n be_v this_o that_o resistance_n may_v be_v use_v in_o case_n our_o religion_n and_o right_n shall_v be_v invade_v the_o argument_n against_o it_o be_v these_o first_o that_o the_o christian_a religion_n do_v plain_o forbid_v the_o resistance_n of_o authority_n quaere_fw-la who_o have_v authority_n to_o invade_v the_o establish_v religion_n and_o right_n of_o the_o nation_n be_v any_o one_o impower_v by_o the_o law_n to_o invade_v the_o law_n second_o that_o though_o our_o religion_n be_v establish_v by_o law_n which_o make_v a_o difference_n between_o our_o case_n and_o that_o of_o the_o primitive_a christian_n yet_o in_o the_o same_o law_n which_o establish_v our_o religion_n it_o be_v declare_v that_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a upon_o any_o pretence_n whatsoever_o to_o take_v up_o arm_n against_o the_o king_n or_o any_o commissioned_n by_o he_o neither_o do_v this_o reach_n the_o question_n for_o the_o king_n can_v do_v no_o wrong_n nor_o in_o the_o second_o place_n can_v he_o commissionate_v any_o person_n to_o invade_v the_o establish_v religion_n and_o right_n of_o the_o kingdom_n for_o a_o commission_n of_o that_o kind_n be_v not_o a_o commission_n in_o law_n it_o be_v null_a and_o void_a and_o nothing_o beside_o that_o there_o be_v a_o particular_a law_n declare_v the_o power_n of_o the_o militia_n to_o be_v sole_o in_o the_o king._n to_o do_v what_o to_o invade_v the_o establish_v religion_n and_o right_n of_o the_o kingdom_n if_o you_o read_v the_o whole_a act_n you_o will_v find_v the_o direct_a contrary_n and_o that_o tie_v the_o hand_n of_o subject_n though_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n and_o the_o general_a rule_n of_o scripture_n have_v leave_v we_o at_o liberty_n which_o i_o believe_v they_o do_v not_o because_o the_o government_n and_o peace_n of_o humane_a society_n can_v not_o well_o subsist_v upon_o these_o term_n as_o if_o the_o establish_v religion_n and_o right_n of_o a_o nation_n which_o be_v the_o very_a end_n of_o government_n and_o of_o humane_a society_n be_v best_o secure_v by_o be_v lay_v open_a to_o invasion_n and_o expose_v for_o a_o prey_n three_o this_o opinion_n be_v contrary_a to_o the_o declare_a doctrine_n of_o all_o protestant_a church_n and_o though_o some_o particular_a person_n have_v teach_v otherwise_o yet_o they_o have_v be_v contradict_v herein_o and_o condemn_v for_o it_o by_o the_o generality_n of_o protestant_n whereas_o the_o follow_a testimony_n will_v prove_v it_o to_o be_v no_o singular_a opinion_n but_o hold_v by_o the_o most_o eminent_a protestant_n both_o at_o home_n and_o abroad_o and_o they_o give_v such_o reason_n for_o their_o opinion_n as_o may_v at_o least_o excuse_v those_o person_n who_o be_v of_o the_o same_o persuasion_n till_o such_o time_n as_o those_o argument_n be_v answer_v as_o well_o as_o the_o opinion_n condemn_v to_o begin_v with_o luther_n with_o who_o the_o papist_n say_v untrue_o our_o religion_n begin_v but_o who_o be_v indeed_o a_o
