friendship cōbinations practised among mē that is not done with consideration of the ordinance of God is a conspiracy priuate complotment and confederacie and not a legall society nor religious charity 1. Cor. 13.5 which seeketh not her owne particular profite but executeth her effects outwards For there is no vnion neither in faith nor in charity sauing in IESVS CHRIST alone who is the center and perpetuall end of all good to which purpose saith Saint Paul 1. Cor. 10.31 whether yee eate or drinke or whatsoeuer yee do do all to the glory of God And S. Peter recommending subiection towards the Prince referreth it to his vse 1. Pet. 2.13.14 c. Be yee subiect for the Lords sake Now as the morall vertues of the heathen are sinnes before God in as much as they are not done with hauing regard to his commandement which they know not So the contēpt of the King who hath right ouer the subiect by the law of God ariseth onely in the minde of him that contemneth the authour of the Law And by the same reason it necessarily followeth that such a man hath first violated his faith towards God before he faile in the seruice of the King for so long as hee remaineth faithfull in the first Table hee will not passe to the transgression of the second which is not well obserued but in the consideration of the first of which it is a sequele and necessary dependancy Wherefore wee see ordinarily that idolaters do easily rebell yea boldly attempt against the person of their King on the contrarie Religous soules serue them though they bee froward yea Infidels as wee haue noted some examples but after the transgression of the honour due to God the contempt of the King followeth soone after Thus is Samuel comforted by God They haue not cast thee away 1. Sam. 8.7.8 but they haue cast mee away that I should not raigne ouer them And as they haue forsaken mee seruing strange Gods euen so they forsake thee And Zedechias being tributary King before he came to despise the King hardened himselfe against God 2. Chron. 36.12.13 Zedechias did euill in the sight of the Lord his God and humbled not himselfe for Ieremiah the Prophet speaking in the name of the Lord and also rebelled against King Nebuchadnezar which had caused him to sweare by the name of God Also in another place the Holy Ghost interpreteth rebellion to be an euill as dangerous as to goe to sorcerers and witches Rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft and transgression is wickednesse and idolatry 1. Sam. 15. Thence it commeth that of late some of them that labour to weaken the authority of the King and haue fostered rebellion in this Kingdome of France haue also questioned the Pythonisse woman possessed and examined the Diuell Wherefore wee need not wonder if they that like not the right way directing to Holy Abba Father which art in heauen swerue frō the obedience of our Abimelec that is to say our Father the King which is on earth And as the Iesuites substitute to God our Holy Father another God on earth whom they call Most holy Father and separate IESVS CHRIST from his Body Spouse the Church for to create vnto him a Vicar and Liuetenant generall in all his Kingdomes Bel. lib. 1. de Pontif. cap. 9. etiam Christo secluso So these same Spirits will at this present erect a Monarke aboue Kings which are the fathers and husbands of their people and country to the end they should not enioy their Soueraigneties but so long as they shall please him Thus hauing begunne with disobedience towards God they end with rebellion against the King his Liuetenant on earth Wherefore none will euer defend the Kings rights and prerogatiues as they ought except hee first beginne with the Lawes of God and if hee bee a preuaricator in the first Table he will easiy be perswaded to lay such grounds as ouerthrow the Kings right for hee that granteth the greater will not sticke to giue the lesser This is the cunning deuise Ieroboam vsed who as it is written retained the people to himselfe 1. King 12.26.27 c. and hindred them from returning to the house of Dauid in causing them commit idolatry And for as much as the Article of confession of the reformed Churches aboue rehearsed conteyneth a submission of all the inhabitants of the Kingdome without excepting the Ministers and in as much as the Moderne Clergy-men whē a Priest is cōuerted to their Religion make him renounce among other things that pretēded priuiledge of Clericature Lastly for as much as the honour which we owe vnto the King is for conscience sake Rom. 13. as saith S. Paul and for Gods sake as S. Peter speaketh 1. Pet. 2.13 It followeth that the Cardinall Iesuite maintaineth a formall heresie Bellar. li. 3. recognit de Laicis in making some Christians subiect to the King not for conscience sake but for seruile feare obeying for no other cause but for that they are not the strongest and for feare of punishment not for loue of God For if the conscience be bound by the Law of God to the obedience of the King who is the subiect capable to attempt against the lawes rights or prerogatiues of the King but hee that falsifieth his faith vnto God Of this Saint Iude writing to his beloued of the common saluation saith that certaine men crept in Iud. v. 3.4 which were before of old ordained to this condemnation men without piety turning the grace of God into wantonnes renouncing the onely Dominator IESVS CHRIST our God and Lord.
