appoint_v by_o he_o be_v observe_v by_o we_o namely_o 12.15_o 1_o cor._n 12.15_o when_o the_o hand_n do_v not_o oppose_v the_o head_n nor_o the_o foot_n the_o hand_n nor_o these_o the_o belly_n but_o

5._o it_o consist_v in_o obey_v their_o command_n statute_n and_o law_n here_o observe_v that_o command_v and_o law_n of_o magistrate_n be_v threefold_a to_o wit_n 1._o good_a simple_o or_o direct_o according_a to_o the_o word_n and_o will_n of_o god_n as_o when_o magistrate_n in_o their_o law_n and_o statute_n prohibit_v swear_v steal_v adultery_n and_o the_o like_a and_o command_v and_o enjoin_v the_o careful_a observation_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n now_o in_o these_o precept_n there_o be_v no_o question_n but_o magistrate_n ought_v to_o be_v obey_v because_o as_o the_o lord_n vicegerent_n they_o impose_v nothing_o upon_o we_o but_o the_o lord_n own_o yoke_n 2._o some_o magistrate_n command_v thing_n simple_o evil_a as_o to_o fall_v down_o before_o a_o false_a god_n dan._n 3._o or_o not_o to_o fall_v down_o and_o pray_v unto_o the_o true_a god_n dan._n 6._o now_o here_o there_o be_v no_o question_n neither_o because_o we_o must_v rather_o obey_v god_n then_o man_n and_o therefore_o when_o man_n mandate_n countermand_v the_o lord_n we_o must_v not_o then_o or_o therein_o obey_v he_o 3._o sometime_o the_o magistrate_n command_v that_o which_o be_v adiaphorall_a and_o indifferent_a in_o itself_o as_o namely_o for_o some_o politic_a respect_n the_o magistrate_n command_v we_o to_o abstain_v from_o flesh_n on_o friday_n or_o in_o lent_n when_o we_o may_v without_o any_o endanger_n of_o our_o health_n or_o the_o encur_v of_o any_o eminent_a inconvenience_n now_o this_o obedience_n i_o think_v no_o christian_a man_n shall_v deny_v to_o any_o christian_a magistrate_n 4._o themselves_o 4._o they_o must_v be_v at_o unity_n among_o themselves_o if_o people_n desire_v that_o this_o our_o church_n and_o state_n may_v long_o stand_v and_o last_o flourish_v then_o as_o they_o must_v be_v subject_a and_o obedient_a unto_o magistrate_n so_o they_o must_v be_v at_o unity_n and_o peace_n among_o themselves_o if_o one_o member_n shall_v be_v at_o variance_n and_o hold_v war_n with_o another_o how_o can_v the_o body_n subsist_v now_o in_o this_o our_o church_n and_o state_n we_o be_v or_o shall_v be_v member_n of_o one_o and_o the_o same_o body_n rom._n

for_o the_o orderly_a dissect_n or_o break_v up_o of_o the_o text_n we_o must_v observe_v as_o at_o first_o we_o observe_v that_o in_o the_o word_n two_o thing_n offer_v themselves_o to_o our_o view_n
