by_o become_a christian_n have_v no_o addition_n of_o power_n to_o what_o he_o have_v before_o magistracy_n be_v the_o same_o and_o as_o legitimate_a among_o heathen_n as_o christian_n a_o magistrate_n when_o christian_a exercise_n the_o power_n he_o have_v before_o otherwise_o but_o receive_v no_o addition_n of_o power_n to_o his_o office_n christ_n in_o the_o gospel_n have_v make_v no_o alteration_n in_o magistratical_a power_n nor_o have_v he_o give_v any_o addition_n to_o it_o when_o exercise_v by_o christian_a hand_n but_o a_o magistrate_n when_o christian_a be_v bind_v to_o

as_o if_o he_o be_v christian_a and_o be_v to_o take_v as_o much_o care_n of_o the_o soul_n of_o his_o subject_n suitable_a to_o that_o light_n as_o any_o christian_a magistrate_n be_v to_o do_v suitable_a to_o he_o the_o power_n a_o parent_n have_v over_o his_o child_n a_o master_n over_o his_o servant_n a_o prince_n over_o his_o subject_n be_v no_o more_o when_o they_o become_v christian_a than_o it_o be_v before_o only_o that_o power_n must_v be_v otherwise_o exercise_v according_a to_o that_o improvement_n of_o light_n christianity_n bring_v with_o it_o all_o natural_a and_o moral_a power_n be_v the_o same_o from_o the_o beginning_n though_o god_n be_v not_o please_v to_o set_v that_o power_n distinct_o in_o a_o law_n write_v till_o long_o after_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n give_v a_o plentiful_a information_n about_o these_o thing_n the_o duty_n of_o all_o such_o relation_n in_o the_o performance_n mutual_o of_o they_o among_o man_n be_v great_o further_v by_o the_o light_n of_o the_o gospel_n but_o the_o duty_n be_v still_o the_o same_o several_a thing_n do_v evident_o evince_v this_o general_a truth_n one_a all_o natural_a and_o moral_a relation_n belong_v to_o

the_o other_o without_o any_o reference_n to_o any_o persuasion_n in_o religion_n or_o other_o qualification_n whatever_o two_o it_o appear_v from_o hence_o because_o whatsoever_o the_o gospel_n

appear_v to_o be_v so_o because_o christian_n be_v oblige_v by_o the_o law_n of_o the_o gospel_n to_o give_v the_o same_o obedience_n and_o perform_v the_o same_o duty_n in_o these_o relation_n to_o

whatsoever_o these_o two_o preliminary_a consideration_n of_o the_o magistrate_n one_a that_o he_o have_v his_o original_n in_o the_o light_n and_o law_n of_o nature_n two_o that_o his_o power_n and_o

subject_n have_v chief_o issue_v themselves_o first_o some_o do_v make_v the_o magistrate_n the_o sole_a judge_n of_o all_o spiritual_a matter_n ascribe_v to_o he_o the_o power_n of_o settle_v what_o government_n he_o please_v in_o the_o church_n appoint_v officer_n in_o it_o determine_v all_o difference_n in_o religious_a thing_n suppress_v by_o his_o power_n all_o error_n and_o heresy_n and_o supercede_v all_o matter_n that_o appertain_v to_o the_o gospel_n a_o second_o sort_n with_o a_o equal_a warmth_n affirm_v the_o magistrate_n power_n in_o religious_a thing_n but_o say_v it_o be_v never_o to_o be_v exercise_v but_o in_o a_o perfect_a subservency_n to_o the_o church_n and_o that_o whatsoever_o the_o church_n determine_v he_o be_v bind_v to_o execute_v by_o the_o temporal_a sword_n as_o the_o great_a law_n of_o christ_n a_o three_o sort_n as_o wide_a of_o the_o truth_n as_o either_o of_o the_o other_o say_v positive_o the_o magistrate_n have_v nothing_o at_o all_o to_o

nature_n that_o all_o these_o principle_n have_v produce_v hurtful_a effect_n and_o that_o the_o truth_n lie_v distant_a from_o they_o all_o will_v be_v find_v in_o a_o distinct_a consideration_n of_o they_o the_o first_o do_v little_o less_o than_o revive_v in_o the_o magistrate_n now_o much_o of_o that_o power_n christ_n himself_o and_o the_o apostle_n by_o his_o delegation_n exercise_v at_o first_o in_o settle_v the_o gospel_n church_n and_o unless_o it_o can_v be_v punctual_o make_v appear_v where_o in_o the_o gospel_n christ_n have_v substitute_v the_o magistrate_n to_o exercise_v such_o a_o dominion_n over_o his_o house_n it_o will_v sober_o be_v find_v a_o dangerous_a entrenchment_n upon_o his_o kingly_a office_n it_o be_v one_o thing_n to_o take_v care_n of_o the_o execution_n of_o what_o christ_n have_v already_o settle_v and_o another_o to_o make_v law_n and_o custom_n about_o those_o thing_n this_o opinion_n as_o it_o be_v by_o many_o late_a writer_n maintain_v dissolve_v all_o ecclesiastical_a regiment_n and_o annex_v the_o government_n of_o the_o church_n to_o the_o civil_a power_n or_o indeed_o drown_v the_o church_n into_o the_o state_n or_o at_o least_o mix_v they_o as_o much_o or_o more_o than_o they_o be_v mix_v together_o under_o the_o judaical_a policy_n what_o ever_o government_n the_o magistrate_n settle_v can_v be_v ecclesiastical_a but_o civil_a if_o it_o be_v foreign_a to_o what_o be_v already_o divine_o appoint_v if_o it_o be_v not_o then_o it_o be_v not_o the_o settle_n but_o the_o execute_n of_o what_o be_v already_o settle_a unless_o you_o will_v say_v that_o christ_n entrust_v he_o to_o settle_v the_o ecclesiastical_a government_n of_o his_o church_n and_o that_o will_v seem_v not_o a_o little_a strange_a that_o the_o magistrate_n who_o be_v no_o spiritual_a officer_n set_v in_o the_o church_n nor_o can_v himself_n administer_v in_o execute_v the_o least_o thing_n within_o it_o shall_v have_v such_o a_o supreme_a power_n over_o it_o either_o christ_n and_o the_o apostle_n do_v settle_v a_o government_n in_o the_o church_n or_o they_o do_v not_o if_o they_o do_v the_o magistrate_n as_o

than_o ever_o they_o have_v for_o if_o we_o suppose_v they_o have_v power_n to_o settle_v a_o government_n but_o do_v not_o think_v fit_a to_o exert_v that_o power_n but_o leave_v it_o to_o the_o magistrate_n his_o power_n in_o the_o execution_n of_o it_o be_v great_a than_o they_o it_o be_v much_o that_o the_o infallible_a wisdom_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n can_v not_o better_o
