they_o be_v call_v god_n john_n 10.35_o because_o the_o word_n of_o god_n come_v to_o they_o that_o be_v his_o word_n of_o commission_n to_o execute_v the_o word_n of_o his_o judgement_n but_o if_o they_o do_v the_o quite_o contrary_a as_o this_o wicked_a ruler_n they_o represent_v the_o devil_n and_o not_o god_n and_o as_o i_o hint_v before_o be_v more_o fit_o term_v devil_n than_o god_n 5._o this_o text_n which_o paul_n mention_n do_v not_o forbid_v any_o just_a and_o plain_a reprehension_n of_o wicked_a ruler_n to_o speak_v the_o truth_n to_o or_o of_o they_o
