thereunto_o this_o i_o do_v declare_v 1._o we_o do_v own_o and_o acknowledge_v magistracy_n to_o be_v a_o ordinance_n of_o god_n institute_v of_o he_o for_o the_o punish_n of_o evil-doer_n and_o for_o the_o praise_n of_o they_o that_o do_v well_o and_o we_o acknowledge_v all_o subjection_n to_o authority_n magistracy_n and_o government_n this_o be_v our_o principle_n and_o have_v ever_o be_v our_o

and_o ordinance_n we_o be_v and_o do_v engage_v to_o be_v subject_a thereunto_o by_o full_a obedience_n to_o all_o the_o command_n and_o injunction_n of_o such_o authority_n and_o government_n who_o

to_o such_o government_n and_o authority_n we_o be_v ready_o subject_a in_o all_o thing_n and_o case_n and_o we_o be_v for_o the_o order_n and_o assistance_n of_o such_o government_n in_o all_o

people_n in_o matter_n and_o case_n contrary_a to_o right_o reason_n and_o equity_n who_o command_n be_v different_a to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n yet_o to_o such_o government_n we_o acknowledge_v

be_v our_o principle_n though_o a_o authority_n and_o government_n be_v never_o so_o unjust_a in_o itself_o and_o in_o its_o exercise_n yet_o we_o may_v not_o plot_v nor_o contrive_v or_o make_v

any_o unjust_a command_n of_o men._n 4._o as_o concern_v church_n and_o ministry_n and_o the_o exercise_n of_o religion_n we_o believe_v and_o acknowledge_v that_o christ_n have_v a_o church_n upon_o

but_o we_o only_o bear_v witness_n against_o the_o corruption_n and_o degeneration_n of_o the_o church_n of_o papist_n and_o protestant_n so_o call_v wherein_o they_o be_v different_a and_o contrary_a to_o what_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n be_v in_o the_o apostle_n day_n they_o be_v different_a and_o contrary_a i_o assert_v to_o what_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n once_o be_v in_o ministry_n in_o its_o call_n and_o maintenance_n in_o ordinance_n and_o worship_n in_o discipline_n and_o government_n in_o all_o these_o thing_n there_o be_v difference_n to_o what_o these_o thing_n be_v in_o the_o true_a church_n in_o the_o apostle_n day_n and_o our_o principle_n be_v for_o the_o reform_n of_o ministry_n church_n government_n discipline_n and_o worship_n and_o not_o to_o destroy_v they_o 5._o as_o concern_v impose_v of_o faith_n and_o doctrine_n and_o practice_n and_o worship_n in_o religion_n by_o the_o force_n of_o law_n and_o penalty_n in_o the_o ignorance_n of_o man_n conscience_n or_o contrary_a to_o their_o conscience_n we_o do_v say_v this_o practice_n never_o be_v in_o the_o apostle_n day_n but_o be_v a_o intrusion_n of_o antichrist_n and_o we_o bear_v testimony_n against_o it_o

no_o king_n nor_o ruler_n upon_o earth_n have_v power_n give_v he_o of_o god_n to_o exercise_v such_o authority_n over_o the_o conscience_n of_o man_n in_o the_o matter_n of_o god_n kingdom_n and_o further_o religion_n and_o church_n government_n so_o set_v up_o and_o establish_v by_o force_n upon_o pain_n and_o penalty_n can_v but_o reform_v a_o people_n into_o hypocrisy_n and_o false_a conformity_n and_o not_o into_o any_o real_a performance_n of_o religion_n or_o duty_n to_o god_n and_o such_o performance_n of_o religion_n church-fellowship_n and_o ordinance_n be_v not_o unto_o eternal_a life_n but_o to_o the_o make_n of_o man_n two_o fold_n more_o the_o child_n of_o the_o devil_n 6._o we_o do_v believe_v that_o it_o be_v the_o conviction_n and_o teach_v of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n that_o do_v make_v man_n and_o people_n only_o true_o religious_a it_o be_v that_o only_a that_o persuade_v the_o conscience_n from_o all_o evil_a unto_o that_o which_o be_v good_a and_o
