he_o exhort_v they_o to_o this_o duty_n especial_o point_v at_o magistrate_n which_o to_o obey_v he_o count_v a_o good_a work_n be_v ready_a say_v he_o to_o every_o good_a work_n that_o be_v the_o first_o text_n i_o shall_v give_v you_o to_o clear_v this_o point_n i_o need_v not_o stand_v to_o give_v more_o but_o however_o take_v one_o or_o two_o more_o for_o the_o further_o manifest_v this_o truth_n and_o this_o text_n be_v very_o pertinent_a to_o our_o purpose_n 1_o pet._n 2._o 13._o submit_v yourselves_o to_o every_o ordinance_n of_o man_n for_o the_o lord_n sake_n whether_o it_o be_v unto_o the_o king_n as_o supreme_a or_o unto_o governor_n as_o unto_o they_o that_o be_v send_v by_o he_o the_o apostle_n have_v this_o duty_n two_o or_o three_o time_n in_o this_o epistle_n as_o in_o verse_n 17._o of_o the_o same_o chapter_n where_o he_o enjoin_v this_o duty_n with_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n say_v fear_v god_n and_o honour_v the_o king_n and_o then_o sure_o there_o be_v subjection_n or_o aught_o to_o be_v to_o that_o person_n who_o with_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n we_o ought_v to_o honour_n thus_o you_o see_v how_o clear_a this_o doctrine_n be_v by_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o apostle_n for_o the_o apostle_n do_v so_o preach_v and_o teach_v this_o doctrine_n and_o as_o they_o see_v it_o be_v their_o duty_n who_o do_v it_o by_o divine_a inspiration_n then_o sure_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o minister_n now_o so_o to_o teach_v but_o how_o few_o do_v thus_o teach_v i_o leave_v to_o god_n and_o their_o conscience_n for_o instead_o of_o preach_v submission_n to_o government_n we_o have_v such_o nowadays_o which_o preach_v little_a else_o but_o rebellion_n but_o far_o one_o text_n more_o for_o the_o clear_n and_o confirm_v of_o this_o good_a truth_n because_o i_o will_v have_v none_o reflect_v upon_o the_o author_n for_o lay_v down_o every_o man_n duty_n and_o say_v he_o have_v take_v that_o in_o hand_n which_o he_o can_v prove_v take_v heb._n 3._o 17._o obey_v they_o that_o rule_n over_o you_o and_o submit_v yourselves_o thus_o you_o see_v this_o doctrine_n clear_o prove_v by_o the_o example_n of_o the_o apostle_n who_o thus_o teach_v the_o people_n to_o be_v subject_a to_o those_o that_o have_v rule_n and_o authority_n over_o they_o and_o be_v not_o forgetful_a as_o some_o be_v of_o their_o duty_n to_o principality_n and_o power_n and_o therefore_o in_o the_o word_n of_o my_o text_n the_o apostle_n so_o preach_v let_v every_o soul_n be_v subject_a to_o the_o high_a power_n thus_o have_v prove_v the_o doctrine_n by_o the_o example_n of_o the_o apostle_n who_o be_v the_o immediate_a minister_n of_o christ_n and_o speak_v by_o divine_a authority_n and_o immediate_a revelation_n i_o hope_v none_o will_v stand_v to_o oppose_v the_o author_n in_o this_o great_a truth_n which_o be_v both_o for_o the_o benefit_n of_o themselves_o and_o posterity_n the_o settlement_n of_o affair_n and_o the_o trouble_v they_o now_o bring_v upon_o themselves_o so_o much_o for_o the_o confirmation_n of_o the_o first_o doctrine_n i_o shall_v now_o come_v to_o the_o second_o thing_n propound_v which_o be_v this_o why_o minister_n ought_v thus_o to_o preach_v the_o first_o reason_n be_v because_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o people_n be_v much_o upon_o their_o teacher_n and_o be_v too_o apt_a to_o suck_v in_o ill_a principle_n which_o be_v plain_o demonstrate_v by_o achitophel_n who_o have_v no_o soon_o counsel_v young_a absalon_n to_o raise_v rebellion_n against_o his_o father_n david_n but_o present_o the_o poor_a inconsiderate_a multitude_n begin_v to_o associate_v but_o thanks_o be_v to_o god_n the_o council_n of_o our_o modern_a achitophel_n be_v defeat_v he_o be_v flee_v wherefore_o i_o will_v advise_v our_o minister_n not_o to_o go_v this_o way_n to_o work_v to_o raise_v feud_n among_o their_o hearer_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a rather_o exhort_v they_o to_o submission_n and_o obedience_n to_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n and_o to_o the_o honour_n of_o the_o king_n and_o to_o persuade_v they_o from_o rebellious_a murmur_n which_o be_v much_o for_o their_o peace_n and_o advantage_n but_o otherwise_o be_v unavoidable_a destruction_n that_o be_v the_o first_o reason_n a_o second_o reason_n be_v this_o minister_n ought_v to_o teach_v people_n to_o obey_v man_n especial_o magistrate_n because_o they_o do_v due_o teach_v people_n or_o at_o leastwise_o ought_v so_o to_o do_v their_o duty_n towards_o god_n and_o as_o there_o be_v a_o duty_n towards_o god_n so_o there_o be_v a_o duty_n towards_o man_n and_o more_o especial_o to_o government_n for_o they_o which_o will_v not_o obey_v man_n who_o they_o see_v daily_o how_o shall_v they_o obey_v god_n who_o they_o have_v not_o see_v beside_o god_n require_v this_o duty_n of_o we_o and_o his_o word_n enjoin_v we_o to_o put_v people_n in_o mind_n of_o those_o that_o rule_n over_o they_o this_o be_v a_o second_o reason_n a_o three_o reason_n be_v this_o due_a subjection_n to_o government_n produce_v peace_n safety_n to_o a_o people_n and_o nation_n pray_v what_o have_v be_v the_o ill_a consequence_n of_o of_o non-submission_n in_o most_o part_n but_o destruction_n and_o ruin_n both_o of_o family_n town_n and_o nation_n where_o prince_n and_o people_n do_v not_o agree_v but_o i_o know_v who_o ought_v to_o submit_v servant_n or_o master_n prince_n or_o people_n reason_n tell_v we_o that_o servant_n ought_v to_o obey_v for_o then_o sure_o people_n ought_v to_o submit_v to_o their_o prince_n therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v servant_n obey_v they_o that_o be_v your_o own_o master_n so_o much_o for_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o doctrine_n now_o to_o the_o three_o thing_n propound_v and_o that_o be_v the_o ill_a consequence_n of_o the_o neglect_n of_o this_o duty_n of_o thus_o teach_v people_n their_o duty_n of_o be_v subject_n the_o ill_a consequence_n be_v these_o first_o it_o tend_v to_o the_o disquiet_n of_o the_o people_n who_o mind_n be_v stir_v up_o to_o feud_n and_o animosity_n one_o among_o another_o for_o there_o be_v some_o turbulent_a preacher_n abroad_o who_o instead_o of_o preach_v submission_n preach_v contrariwise_o instead_o of_o preach_v from_o text_n which_o shall_v humble_v people_n preach_v from_o those_o text_n that_o tend_v to_o nothing_o but_o stir_v they_o up_o to_o feud_n and_o fear_n and_o suggest_v into_o their_o mind_n evil_a thing_n against_o government_n preach_v from_o text_n which_o please_v their_o own_o fancy_n as_o psal_n 149._o ver_fw-la 8._o let_v we_o bind_v their_o king_n in_o chain_n and_o their_o prince_n in_o fetter_n of_o iron_n and_o other_o text_n as_o act_n 4._o ver_fw-la 26._o the_o king_n of_o the_o earth_n stand_v up_o against_o the_o lord_n and_o his_o christ_n these_o text_n man_n be_v too_o apt_a to_o preach_v from_o which_o be_v of_o ill_a consequence_n and_o tend_v to_o nothing_o but_o strife_n as_o they_o handle_v they_o there_o be_v many_o let_v they_o take_v what_o text_n they_o will_v they_o will_v have_v a_o fling_n at_o the_o government_n and_o incense_v people_n with_o one_o passage_n or_o other_o and_o will_v be_v sure_a to_o find_v fault_n with_o both_o prince_n and_o government_n which_o be_v of_o very_o ill_a consequence_n who_o instead_o of_o such_o preach_n ought_v otherwise_o to_o preach_v and_o to_o preach_v from_o such_o text_n as_o tend_v to_o peace_n as_o that_o of_o the_o apostle_n which_o counsel_v to_o follow_v peace_n with_o all_o man_n and_o holiness_n without_o which_o no_o man_n shall_v see_v god_n instead_o of_o rail_v against_o government_n shall_v support_v it_o which_o have_v far_o better_a consequence_n in_o they_o 2_o the_o neglect_n of_o not_o teach_v people_n this_o duty_n of_o subjection_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a to_o unsettle_v the_o mind_n of_o people_n it_o have_v this_o ill_a consequence_n in_o it_o as_o murder_v one_o of_o another_o what_o be_v the_o consequence_n of_o our_o former_a contention_n in_o the_o late_a time_n of_o rebellion_n but_o murder_v of_o one_o another_o pray_v god_n keep_v we_o from_o it_o now_o in_o these_o our_o day_n and_o let_v not_o rebellion_n that_o sin_n of_o witchcraft_n be_v sow_v among_o we_o now_o as_o it_o be_v among_o those_o which_o our_o former_a good_a prince_n have_v who_o take_v the_o government_n by_o violence_n into_o their_o own_o hand_n man_n which_o be_v very_a ill-minded_n that_o neither_o will_v obey_v god_n nor_o man_n but_o will_v be_v all_o master_n and_o no_o servant_n all_o king_n and_o no_o subject_n from_o which_o sort_n of_o pretender_n to_o religion_n good_a lord_n deliver_v we_o so_o much_o for_o the_o ill_a consequence_n which_o be_v the_o three_o thing_n propound_v now_o i_o come_v to_o the_o four_o and_o last_o thing_n which_o be_v the_o application_n of_o this_o doctrine_n in_o which_o i_o shall_v do_v these_o
