A33241	The snare is broken wherein is proved by Scripture, law and reason, that the Nationall covenant and oath was unlawfully given and taken ... : here also is vindicated the Parliaments later proceedings, shewing the grounds and principles of the London ministers to be weak and unsound ... : moreover something is said against violence in religion, and the duty of the civill magistrate about worship and church-government / by John Canne.	Canne, John, d. 1667?	1649 (1649)	Wing C442B; ESTC R20321	45,082	54

in such things And their Reasons for it were partly because sundrie wayes of worship and severall religions d tends to the disturbance of the Common-wealth and that civill society which men under the same government do and ought to enjoy And partly because the Gods whom they owned and worshipped were dishonoured and provoked to plague them And having thus made a Law and supported with such reasons as these they proceeded to the execution of the penalty of that Law as unto banishment imprisonment burning drowning torturing in sundr● kinds according to the pleasure of the Judges T is true this the Heathen did and this e power of the Dragon was given over to the Beast and false Prophet and to this day many walk in the same paths with them But I do not read where a Covenant was to be taken and men enjoyned to swear unto their worship and religion and to suffer punishment if they should refuse such a practise for ought I know was not once named among the Gentiles darknesse it seems had not so overtaken them as to act so unreasonablie 4. Seeing the Church of England resolveth that all Councels and Synods whether Provinciall Nationall or Oecumenicall f they may erre and have erred in things pertaining to God And the same professed by all Protestant Churches I would know what reason and ground the Magistrate hath to swear himself much lesse to force another by oath to embrace without all doubt and suspicion of error for so it is presupposed he doth when he swears any constitutions of men Me thinks it is no fair dealing of Ministers to tel● the people Synods and Assemblie of Divines may erre and yet to thrust upon them their decrees and devises in such a way as if they were Apostolicall and infallible and could not erre 5. Not onely is this putting of men to oaths and vows in points of Religion contrary to Gospel way rule and walking but a subtle stratagem and plot used by Hereticks Idolaters and such vile wretches the better to promote and advance their errors lyes blasphemous tenets Of Novatianus it is reported that g before he would give the Sacrament he caused his Adherents to put their hands betwixt his and to swear by the body blood of the Lord they would not forsake him and turn to Cornelius And did not the Prelates usually make their Clergie and others to swear Canonicall obedience to their Articles Injunctions Cannons and why was it but to uphold their superstition and false worship and to hinder the power of godlinesse One would have thought that the perillous Oath which the Bishops made them to take and the trouble of spirit which some of them ever had for it would have made them for the time to come more carefull and tender hearted and not again have run themselves and forced others into the like snare and danger To conclude all seeing it hath been proved that the Covenant both given and taken was unlawful whosoever therfore hath had a hand either way in it he ought to repent truly of it and by this take warning and learn h to fear this glorious and fearfull Name JEHOVAH THY GOD FINIS Some have compared the Covenant to an old Almana●k out of date but it was never in date not good the first yeer when it was made a In the Oath ministred to the present Lord Mayor b Theod. li 4. c 32. hist.
