determine_v such_o controversy_n as_o arise_v it_o seem_v good_a to_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o to_o we_o all_o along_o their_o spiritual_a progress_n if_o any_o city_n refuse_v to_o receive_v they_o or_o their_o doctrine_n they_o shake_v off_o the_o dust_n off_o their_o foot_n against_o it_o as_o a_o direful_a presage_v of_o some_o ensue_a judgement_n as_o the_o next_o word_n manifest_o declare_v very_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o it_o shall_v be_v more_o tolerable_a for_o sodom_n and_o gomorrha_n in_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n than_o for_o that_o city_n wretched_a city_n how_o have_v thy_o disobedience_n ascertain_v and_o aggrandize_v thy_o ruin_n the_o lewd_a inhabitant_n of_o sodom_n and_o gomorrha_n shall_v find_v more_o favour_n in_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n than_o thy_o citizen_n most_o true_a it_o be_v their_o power_n be_v pure_o spiritual_a christ_n the_o prince_n of_o peace_n do_v not_o commission_n general_n to_o destroy_v but_o send_v forth_o apostle_n to_o convert_v the_o nation_n by_o declare_v his_o law_n and_o denounce_v his_o judgement_n but_o then_o they_o have_v no_o coercive_a power_n of_o the_o sword_n which_o god_n have_v give_v to_o magistrate_n to_o inflict_v the_o judgement_n which_o they_o denounce_v but_o as_o they_o because_o live_v under_o heathen_a power_n leave_v the_o event_n of_o their_o spiritual_a censure_n sole_o to_o the_o divine_a vengeance_n which_o they_o who_o escape_v in_o this_o world_n be_v sure_a to_o meet_v with_o in_o the_o next_o so_o be_v it_o still_o unless_o king_n be_v gracious_o please_v to_o show_v themselves_o nurse_n father_n to_o the_o church_n to_o enforce_v spiritual_a censure_n by_o corporal_a penalty_n and_o adjudge_v those_o unworthy_a the_o protection_n of_o the_o law_n of_o the_o realm_n who_o be_v just_o deprive_v of_o the_o benefit_n of_o the_o church_n by_o all_o which_o it_o appear_v that_o the_o church_n be_v something_o else_o than_o a_o christian_a commonwealth_n since_o there_o be_v a_o church_n before_o the_o commonwealth_n become_v christian_a and_o neither_o the_o leviathan_n nor_o any_o of_o his_o disciple_n have_v yet_o be_v able_a to_o show_v how_o or_o when_o the_o church_n forfeit_v her_o antecedent_n right_o and_o that_o though_o the_o governor_n thereof_o may_v challenge_v to_o themselves_o a_o power_n distinct_a yet_o no_o way_n opposite_a to_o the_o civil_a the_o shield_n of_o faith_n do_v not_o clash_n with_o the_o sword_n of_o justice_n and_o maugre_o the_o design_n of_o those_o who_o have_v evil_a will_n at_o zion_n this_o be_v not_o to_o erect_v imperium_fw-la in_o imperio_fw-la much_o less_o to_o set_v the_o mitre_n above_o the_o crown_n since_o whatsoever_o power_n be_v here_o challenge_v as_o of_o divine_a right_n be_v pure_o spiritual_a exercise_v to_o spiritual_a end_n and_o purpose_n so_o far_o from_o interfere_v with_o the_o civil_a from_o absolve_a man_n from_o that_o obedience_n which_o be_v indispensable_o due_a thereunto_o that_o wheresoever_o it_o take_v place_n it_o abate_v nothing_o of_o that_o natural_a right_n which_o the_o magistrate_n have_v in_o the_o affair_n of_o religion_n yet_o herein_o it_o will_v appear_v that_o the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o despise_a king_n of_o the_o jew_n do_v far_o surmount_v all_o the_o policy_n of_o the_o world_n in_o that_o he_o have_v so_o interweave_v the_o concern_v of_o his_o church_n with_o the_o interest_n of_o the_o state_n that_o at_o the_o same_o time_n any_o man_n shall_v dare_v to_o become_v a_o enemy_n to_o his_o kingdom_n he_o must_v cease_v to_o be_v a_o friend_n to_o caesar_n ii_o the_o reasonableness_n of_o this_o submission_n will_v appear_v from_o those_o promise_n of_o assistance_n which_o christ_n have_v make_v to_o they_o but_o not_o to_o other_o without_o they_o much_o less_o to_o other_o against_o they_o and_o those_o be_v illumination_n direction_n and_o power_n illumination_n in_o thing_n obscure_a direction_n in_o thing_n difficult_a power_n to_o encounter_v and_o overcome_v all_o opposition_n and_o this_o may_v be_v one_o reason_n why_o christ_n do_v not_o arm_v his_o disciple_n with_o a_o temporal_a sword_n for_o certain_o he_o who_o have_v all_o power_n give_v he_o in_o heaven_n and_o on_o earth_n may_v have_v do_v it_o if_o he_o have_v please_v because_o he_o furnish_v they_o with_o such_o extraordinary_a virtue_n as_o do_v abundant_o supply_v the_o defect_n of_o that_o thus_o they_o who_o can_v raise_v the_o dead_a from_o the_o grave_a need_v no_o other_o argument_n to_o gain_v the_o live_n they_o who_o can_v convince_v the_o conscience_n captivate_v the_o understanding_n beat_v down_o the_o imagination_n and_o conquer_v the_o affection_n of_o their_o adversary_n need_v no_o sword_n nor_o spear_n nor_o any_o of_o the_o bloody_a engine_n of_o war_n to_o make_v themselves_o master_n of_o the_o field_n now_o the_o same_o spirit_n though_o not_o in_o the_o same_o measure_n do_v still_o reside_v in_o the_o governor_n of_o the_o church_n though_o they_o do_v not_o equalise_v the_o apostle_n in_o work_v of_o miracle_n diversity_n of_o language_n extent_n of_o jurisdiction_n though_o they_o have_v not_o as_o they_o have_v the_o whole_a world_n for_o their_o diocese_n yet_o be_v they_o still_o bishop_n of_o soul_n pastor_n and_o doctor_n for_o the_o consummation_n of_o the_o saint_n for_o the_o edify_v of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n till_o we_o all_o come_v in_o the_o unity_n of_o the_o faith_n unto_o a_o perfect_a man_n in_o christ_n jesus_n either_o then_o let_v private_a man_n submit_v to_o their_o spiritual_a governor_n exercise_v their_o commission_n according_a to_o god_n word_n or_o else_o let_v they_o warrant_v their_o dissent_n with_o great_a at_o least_o equal_a attestation_n of_o the_o divine_a favour_n and_o then_o there_o will_v be_v no_o great_a fear_n of_o any_o danger_n arise_v from_o dissent_v brethren_n iii_o the_o reasonableness_n of_o this_o submission_n will_v appear_v from_o their_o study_n and_o learning_n in_o divine_a matter_n and_o from_o the_o far_o less_o knowledge_n and_o ordinary_a capacity_n in_o other_o the_o apostle_n they_o have_v their_o knowledge_n of_o divine_a thing_n either_o from_o a_o
