worship_v a_o false_a god_n that_o therefore_o magistrate_n be_v bind_v to_o punish_v heretic_n worship_v the_o true_a god_n though_o in_o a_o false_a way_n this_o be_v the_o strength_n of_o their_o exception_n to_o which_o we_o reply_v first_o that_o though_o it_o be_v true_a which_o they_o say_v that_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o king_n of_o israel_n do_v extend_v but_o to_o idolater_n and_o those_o that_o seduce_v and_o draw_v away_o other_o to_o serve_v false_a god_n yet_o it_o do_v not_o follow_v but_o it_o may_v be_v bind_v to_o magistrate_n now_o to_o punish_v heretic_n worship_v a_o true_a god_n in_o a_o false_a way_n and_o that_o because_o of_o this_o rule_n necessary_o to_o be_v admit_v in_o expound_v of_o scripture_n that_o when_o the_o command_n of_o god_n do_v strict_a against_o any_o one_o sin_n most_o usual_a in_o the_o time_n by_o rule_n of_o proportion_n it_o strike_v against_o all_o sin_n of_o that_o kind_n as_o in_o the_o second_o command_n there_o be_v nothing_o express_o forbid_v but_o the_o worship_v of_o god_n by_o grave_a image_n and_o that_o because_o the_o worship_v of_o god_n by_o image_n be_v the_o sin_n most_o in_o use_n at_o that_o time_n yet_o under_o grave_v be_v forbid_v all_o way_n of_o worship_v of_o god_n invent_v by_o man_n and_o so_o although_o it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o practice_n of_o godly_a king_n do_v strict_a but_o against_o idolatry_n yet_o by_o rule_n of_o proportion_n all_o sin_n of_o that_o kind_n shall_v be_v suppress_v to_o which_o add_v that_o when_o the_o high_a degree_n of_o any_o sin_n by_o divine_a law_n be_v to_o be_v punish_v by_o death_n common_a equity_n will_v infer_v that_o lesser_a degree_n of_o sin_n be_v to_o be_v punish_v by_o a_o lesser_a punishment_n at_o least_o second_o to_o what_o they_o say_v that_o the_o magistrate_n do_v only_o punish_v idolatry_n under_o the_o old_a testament_n we_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v false_a they_o do_v punish_v other_o error_n also_o and_o such_o as_o will_v be_v think_v light_n of_o now_o and_o this_o we_o shall_v instance_n in_o several_a particular_n first_o they_o punish_v will_v worship_v in_o serve_v the_o true_a god_n and_o this_o we_o see_v by_o compare_v two_o place_n of_o scripture_n the_o first_o be_v the_o 2_o king_n 23_o 8_o 9_o speak_v of_o josiah_n and_o he_o bring_v all_o the_o priest_n out_o of_o the_o city_n of_o judah_n and_o defile_v the_o high_a place_n where_o the_o priest_n have_v burn_v incense_n so_o he_o employ_v his_o power_n against_o the_o high_a place_n for_o the_o removal_n of_o their_o way_n of_o worship_n the_o other_o place_n of_o scripture_n to_o be_v compare_v with_o be_v the_o 2_o chrov_fw-mi 33._o 17._o which_o tell_v we_o the_o nature_n of_o their_o high_a place_n nevertheless_o the_o people_n do_v sacrifice_v still_o in_o the_o high_a place_n yet_o unto_o the_o lord_n their_o god_n only_o so_o that_o this_o worship_v on_o the_o high_a place_n be_v not_o that_o kind_n of_o idolatry_n whereby_o a_o false_a god_n be_v worship_v but_o a_o way_n of_o their_o own_o whereby_o they_o worship_v the_o true_a god_n and_o yet_o josiah_n suppress_v even_o this_o kind_n of_o false_a worship_n second_o we_o find_v that_o magistrate_n do_v employ_v their_o power_n for_o suppress_v of_o the_o breaker_n of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o and_o punish_v those_o that_o marry_v strange_a wife_n which_o yet_o be_v not_o idolater_n and_o apostat_n from_o the_o true_a god_n a_o noble_a example_n whereof_o be_v in_o nehemiah_n 13._o from_o verse_n 15_o to_o 21._o there_o be_v a_o large_a history_n what_o pain_n he_o take_v to_o reform_v the_o people_n to_o keep_v the_o sabbath_n day_n therefore_o in_o the_o 21._o v._n then_o i_o testify_v against_o they_o and_o say_v unto_o they_o why_o lodge_v you_o about_o the_o wall_n if_o you_o do_v so_o again_o i_o will_v lay_v hand_n on_o you_o he_o threaten_v to_o employ_v the_o civil_a power_n for_o suppress_v of_o that_o error_n and_o this_o be_v not_o idolatry_n and_o second_o we_o find_v that_o the_o magistrate_n employ_v their_o power_n general_o for_o suppress_v any_o error_n that_o be_v contrary_a to_o any_o article_n of_o the_o covenant_n so_o where_o we_o read_v in_o the_o 2_o chron_n 34._o 31_o 32._o and_o the_o king_n stand_v in_o his_o place_n and_o make_v a_o covenant_n before_o the_o lord_n etc._n etc._n and_o he_o cause_v all_o that_o be_v present_a in_o jerusalem_n and_o benjamin_n to_o stand_v to_o it_o and_o the_o head_n of_o the_o covenant_n be_v not_o only_o against_o those_o who_o be_v seducer_n but_o also_o against_o those_o that_o be_v seduce_v so_o we_o find_v it_o in_o exodus_fw-la 32_o v_o 20._o in_o that_o idolatry_n of_o worship_v the_o golden_a calf_n when_o moses_n come_v down_o from_o the_o mount_n in_o his_o zeal_n to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n he_o not_o only_o punish_v aaron_n but_o also_o the_o people_n and_o more_o than_o this_o he_o arm_n the_o levit_n as_o the_o avenger_n of_o god_n justice_n and_o proclaim_v that_o every_o man_n shall_v avenge_v the_o lord_n upon_o his_o very_a brother_n thus_o we_o have_v make_v out_o in_o the_o first_o argument_n take_v from_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o king_n of_o israel_n and_o judah_n and_o have_v vindicate_v it_o by_o scripture_n from_o their_o exception_n bring_v against_o it_o the_o second_o argument_n shall_v yet_o be_v ground_v on_o the_o old_a testament_n and_o it_o be_v take_v from_o the_o many_o command_n and_o precept_n that_o be_v give_v in_o scripture_n to_o godly_a king_n and_o magistrate_n and_o other_o to_o punish_v blasphemer_n false_a prophet_n and_o idolater_n heretic_n sabbath_n breaker_n and_o seducer_n from_o whence_o we_o form_n this_o argument_n that_o whatever_o be_v command_v to_o be_v do_v by_o magistrate_n under_o the_o old_a testament_n as_o a_o part_n of_o their_o duty_n this_o magistrate_n under_o the_o new_a testament_n be_v oblige_v to_o as_o a_o part_n of_o their_o duty_n also_o but_o magistrate_n be_v command_v under_o the_o old_a testament_n to_o suppress_v idolatry_n blasphemy_n and_o heresy_n and_o that_o they_o be_v to_o do_v as_o a_o part_n of_o their_o duty_n as_o magistrate_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v a_o duty_n lie_v on_o magistrate_n under_o the_o new_a the_o thing_n we_o have_v to_o prove_v be_v that_o this_o be_v a_o command_n give_v to_o magistrate_n under_o the_o old_a testament_n and_o that_o as_o a_o part_n of_o their_o duty_n as_o magistrate_n and_o for_o this_o look_n over_o these_o place_n of_o scripture_n exod._n 22._o 20._o he_o that_o sacrifice_v unto_o any_o god_n save_v unto_o the_o lord_n only_o he_o shall_v be_v utter_o destroy_v there_o be_v a_o command_n give_v to_o the_o magistrate_n and_o so_o in_o levit_fw-la 24_o 15._o and_o thou_o shall_v speak_v unto_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n say_v whosoever_o curse_v his_o god_n shall_v bear_v his_o sin_n v_o 16._o and_o he_o that_o blaspheme_v the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n he_o shall_v sure_o be_v put_v to_o death_n so_o in_o the_o 13._o of_o deut_n 1._o if_o there_o arise_v among_o you_o a_o prophet_n or_o dreamer_n of_o dream_n and_o give_v thou_o a_o sign_n or_o a_o wonder_n etc._n etc._n through_o the_o whole_a chapter_n there_o be_v command_v give_v to_o the_o magistrate_n to_o punish_v false_a worship_n we_o shall_v only_o add_v another_o and_o that_o be_v take_v from_o the_o four_o command_n where_o a_o charge_n be_v lay_v on_o the_o magistrate_n as_o well_o as_o the_o master_n of_o a_o family_n to_o make_v use_n of_o his_o power_n for_o keep_v of_o the_o sabbath_n and_o to_o see_v to_o the_o keep_n of_o it_o by_o other_o also_o thou_o shall_v do_v no_o manner_n of_o work_n thou_o nor_o they_o son_n nor_o they_o daughter_n this_o command_n be_v give_v to_o the_o magistrate_n as_o well_o as_o to_o the_o master_n of_o the_o family_n as_o appear_v from_o those_o thing_n first_o by_o virtue_n of_o this_o command_n nehemiah_n the_o magistrate_n of_o god_n people_n do_v make_v use_n of_o his_o power_n to_o punish_v sabbath_n breaker_n in_o that_o place_n we_o cite_v in_o nehemiah_n 13._o 21._o second_o it_o appear_v from_o this_o that_o the_o gate_n speak_v of_o their_o nor_o any_o thing_n that_o be_v within_o thy_o gate_n be_v a_o term_n which_o aggrege_v not_o to_o a_o single_a family_n but_o a_o whole_a city_n even_o to_o the_o circuit_n of_o a_o whole_a kingdom_n of_o the_o word_n gates_n be_v take_v in_o scripture_n gene●_n 22._o 17_o and_o thy_o seed_n shall_v possess_v the_o gate_n of_o his_o enemy_n it_o follow_v as_o in_o that_o respect_n therefore_o he_o speak_v to_o the_o magistrate_n no_o master_n of_o a_o family_n have_v such_o large_a power_n and_o three_o the_o power_n there_o speak_v of_o be_v
