A17976 Iurisdiction regall, episcopall, papall Wherein is declared how the Pope hath intruded vpon the iurisdiction of temporall princes, and of the Church. The intrusion is discouered, and the peculiar and distinct iurisdiction to each properly belonging, recouered. Written by George Carleton. Carleton, George, 1559-1628. 1610 (1610) STC 4637; ESTC S107555 241,651 329

consecration_n of_o aaron_n and_o his_o son_n be_v do_v altogether_o by_o moses_n these_o thing_n though_o they_o make_v fair_a show_n for_o the_o prince_n jurisdiction_n ecclesiastical_a over_o

the_o right_a of_o priest_n after_o all_o thing_n thus_o perfect_v we_o find_v that_o all_o the_o law_n which_o in_o truth_n proceed_v original_o from_o god_n be_v establish_v by_o the_o authority_n of_o moses_n and_o this_o we_o find_v true_a not_o only_o in_o judicial_a and_o civil_a law_n which_o be_v to_o rule_v that_o state_n but_o even_o in_o ceremonial_a and_o moral_a law_n which_o be_v to_o rule_v the_o church_n there_o be_v not_o so_o much_o as_o one_o ceremonial_a law_n establish_v by_o the_o authority_n of_o aaron_n but_o in_o all_o the_o name_n and_o authority_n of_o moses_n

the_o cause_n civil_a and_o the_o priest_n must_v judge_v the_o cause_n ceremonial_a from_o the_o consideration_n of_o which_o place_n we_o may_v draw_v certain_a inference_n 4._o first_o all_o law_n even_o ceremonial_a that_o be_v law_n whereunto_o spiritual_a or_o canon_n law_n be_v answerable_a be_v establish_v by_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o civil_a magistrate_n this_o take_v away_o all_o

all_o rea●…on_n and_o rule_n whether_o we_o look_v upon_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n or_o upon_o the_o scripture_n or_o the_o lawful_a practife_n of_o authority_n since_o the_o scripture_n be_v write_v that_o any_o law_n shall_v be_v impose_v upon_o a_o prince_n against_o or_o without_o his_o consent_n as_o the_o pope_n have_v endeavour_v to_o impose_v the_o canon_n law_n upon_o prince_n and_o this_o appear_v in_o the_o practice_n of_o christian_a magistrate_n so_o long_o as_o lawful_a authority_n stand_v up_o without_o confusion_n in_o the_o world_n but_o here_o we_o consider_v the_o fountain_n of_o that_o practice_n which_o be_v from_o god_n law_n wherein_o we_o see_v all_o law_n confirm_v and_o establish_v by_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o civil_a magistrate_n and_o if_o it_o can_v be_v prove_v that_o in_o some_o law_n ceremonial_a the_o authority_n of_o aaron_n be_v requisite_a yet_o this_o help_v they_o nothing_o that_o plead_v for_o the_o pope_n canon_n for_o these_o man_n will_v impose_v these_o canon_n upon_o prince_n without_o their_o consent_n but_o in_o all_o these_o law_n of_o moses_n wherein_o be_v a_o perfect_a pattern_n for_o all_o lawmaker_n they_o can_v show_v one_o law_n though_o never_o so_o near_o concern_v the_o church_n which_o be_v establish_v without_o the_o authority_n of_o moses_n the_o civil_a magistrate_n if_o they_o object_n these_o thing_n be_v all_o do_v by_o a_o especial_a commandment_n of_o god_n i_o answer_v this_o do_v more_o establish_v the_o authority_n of_o prince_n and_o confirm_v our_o purpose_n for_o let_v they_o answer_v why_o god_n will_v have_v all_o these_o thing_n establish_v by_o the_o civil_a magistrate_n and_o not_o by_o the_o priest_n this_o then_o make_v a_o great_a and_o clear_a confirmation_n of_o the_o prince_n right_a then_o the_o church_n may_v interpret_v scripture_n determine_v controversy_n of_o faith_n but_o can_v establish_v a_o law_n the_o reason_n be_v because_o for_o the_o establish_n of_o law_n coactive_a power_n be_v requisite_a which_o be_v in_o the_o civil_a magistrate_n &_o not_o in_o the_o church_n and_o therefore_o the_o canon_n law_n can_v have_v no_o force_n of_o law_n but_o as_o they_o be_v receive_v and_o establish_v by_o prince_n in_o their_o several_a kingdom_n for_o neither_o can_v the_o law_n have_v the_o force_n of_o a_o law_n without_o coactive_a power_n neither_o have_v the_o pope_n any_o coactive_a power_n in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o other_o prince_n but_o only_o in_o such_o place_n where_o himself_o be_v a_o temporal_a prince_n 5._o second_o we_o observe_v that_o the_o high_a priest_n be_v appoint_v by_o god_n a_o judge_n for_o interpretation_n of_o those_o law_n that_o concern_v the_o church_n in_o question_n of_o conscience_n in_o cause_n mix_v or_o doubtful_a this_o may_v moderate_v the_o humour_n of_o some_o who_o in_o love_n to_o innovation_n will_v leave_v no_o place_n of_o judicature_n to_o ecclesiastical_a person_n for_o these_o thing_n be_v insert_v into_o moses_n law_n take_v from_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n and_o not_o as_o thing_n ceremonial_a which_o thing_n be_v apparent_a from_o the_o end_n use_v and_o necessity_n thereof_o for_o the_o thing_n which_o have_v a_o necessary_a use_n before_o the_o write_a law_n and_o must_v have_v a_o necessary_a use_n after_o the_o abrogation_n of_o that_o law_n must_v be_v acknowledge_v to_o be_v take_v from_o a_o perpetual_a law_n because_o there_o must_v be_v a_o perpetual_a rule_n for_o a_o perpetual_a necessity_n this_o then_o be_v perpetual_a and_o necessary_a matter_n of_o question_n and_o of_o ecclesiastical_a audience_n still_o arise_v the_o hear_n and_o judge_v of_o such_o thing_n belong_v to_o such_o as_o be_v most_o skilful_a in_o those_o affair_n and_o hence_o be_v the_o judicature_n of_o fuch_n thing_n assign_v to_o the_o priest_n which_o right_a of_o ecclesiastical_a judgement_n and_o court_n stand_v no_o less_o now_o due_a to_o they_o in_o the_o time_n of_o grace_n than_o it_o be_v under_o the_o law_n because_o this_o office_n in_o iugde_v hear_v and_o determine_v be_v not_o here_o give_v to_o priest_n as_o a_o thing_n ceremonial_a but_o as_o i_o have_v declare_v derive_v from_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n as_o a_o perpetual_a service_n for_o a_o perpetual_a use_n 6._o three_o we_o consider_v that_o the_o law_n ecclesiastical_a be_v establish_v by_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o civil_a magistrate_n but_o for_o interpretation_n of_o they_o the_o priest_n be_v appoint_v to_o judge_v hence_o rise_v the_o ground_n of_o jurisdiction_n both_o temporal_a and_o spiritual_a we_o consider_v jurisdiction_n here_o as_o our_o question_n import_v authority_n coactive_a in_o external_a judicature_n in_o the_o execution_n of_o law_n the_o fountain_n of_o this_o authority_n be_v in_o he_o principal_o by_o who_o authority_n the_o law_n be_v establish_v and_o without_o who_o authority_n it_o be_v not_o the_o execution_n of_o this_o authority_n be_v in_o they_o that_o be_v appoint_v judge_n and_o herein_o there_o be_v no_o difference_n between_o temporal_a and_o ecclesiastical_a authority_n i_o speak_v not_o now_o of_o spiritual_a government_n by_o the_o law_n of_o god_n execute_v within_o the_o court_n of_o conscience_n but_o of_o ecclesiastical_a government_n in_o the_o execution_n of_o law_n ecclesiastical_a wherein_o there_o be_v use_v of_o coactive_a power_n these_o two_o thing_n be_v in_o themselves_o and_o in_o nature_n so_o distinct_a if_o this_o one_o distinction_n may_v be_v remember_v it_o be_v enough_o to_o answer_v all_o the_o confuse_a collection_n of_o that_o catholic_a divine_a who_o write_v of_o late_a against_o the_o five_o part_n of_o report_n of_o the_o lord_n cook_n for_o all_o that_o he_o write_v there_o rest_v upon_o no_o other_o ground_n then_o upon_o the_o confound_a of_o spiritual_a and_o ecclesiastical_a power_n be_v answer_v in_o one_o word_n by_o this_o one_o poor_a distinction_n between_o these_o two_o power_n now_o the_o distinction_n be_v apparent_a because_o in_o spiritual_a government_n there_o be_v no_o coactive_a power_n but_o in_o ecclesiastical_a judicature_n there_o be_v coactive_a power_n which_o make_v a_o evident_a and_o famous_a difference_n in_o jurisdiction_n because_o this_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o all_o that_o jurisdiction_n wherein_o coactive_a power_n be_v use_v be_v from_o the_o civil_a magistrate_n then_o if_o these_o two_o
distinct_o set_v in_o two_o person_n moses_n keep_v the_o civil_a government_n and_o aaron_n the_o priesthood_n the_o government_n of_o moses_n and_o his_o successor_n be_v more_o civil_a the_o priesthood_n of_o aaron_n &_o his_o successor_n ceremonial_a it_o follow_v that_o this_o ancient_a ordinance_n of_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n be_v alter_v by_o such_o positive_a law_n of_o god_n which_o be_v either_o civil_a or_o ceremonial_a and_o consequent_o that_o this_o alteration_n take_v not_o away_o the_o ancient_a right_n 6._o if_o i_o may_v therefore_o in_o a_o matter_n of_o this_o nature_n declare_v my_o poor_a opinion_n leave_v the_o censure_n hereof_o to_o the_o learned_a that_o be_v able_a to_o judge_v i_o take_v it_o that_o as_o it_o be_v not_o simple_o unlawful_a that_o a_o king_n may_v be_v a_o priest_n and_o nevertheless_o keep_v his_o kingdom_n so_o i_o suppose_v this_o thing_n can_v be_v do_v without_o not_o only_o a_o lawful_a but_o also_o a_o ordinary_a call_n from_o god_n and_o from_o 4._o the_o church_n for_o no_o man_n take_v this_o honour_n to_o himself_o but_o he_o that_o be_v call_v thereto_o as_o be_v aaron_n and_o this_o can_v be_v do_v without_o a_o ordinary_a call_n for_o when_o king_n be_v priest_n and_o the_o first_o bear_v sacrificer_n as_o in_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n then_o they_o have_v a_o ordinary_a call_n thereto_o for_o that_o be_v then_o the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n &_o ordinary_a in_o the_o church_n which_o now_o be_v not_o but_o if_o a_o man_n be_v first_o ●…_n priest_n and_o afterward_o advance_v to_o a_o kingdom_n by_o some_o temporal_a right_n in_o this_o case_n it_o be_v assure_o unlawful_a for_o he_o to_o shake_v off_o his_o holy_a estate_n and_o betake_v himself_o whole_o and_o only_o to_o his_o temporal_a government_n as_o some_o cardinal_n have_v do_v then_o by_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n the_o king_n have_v both_o the_o power_n of_o order_n and_o jurisdiction_n and_o howsoever_o this_o be_v alter_v by_o a_o positive_a ordinance_n of_o god_n yet_o all_o be_v not_o take_v away_o there_o remain_v still_o that_o part_n of_o jurisdiction_n so_o far_o as_o it_o stand_v in_o power_n coactive_a in_o respect_n whereof_o the_o common_a law_n of_o this_o land_n 18._o say_v the_o king_n be_v persona_fw-la mixta_fw-la because_o he_o have_v both_o ecclesiastical_a and_o temporal_a jurisdiction_n 7._o this_o example_n of_o melchisedeck_v both_o king_n and_o priest_n have_v much_o lift_v up_o the_o pope_n and_o his_o flatterer_n for_o of_o this_o they_o take_v especial_a hold_n and_o think_v hereby_o to_o prove_v the_o pope_n to_o be_v king_n of_o the_o church_n because_o melchisedeck_v be_v both_o king_n and_o priest_n but_o to_o this_o we_o answer_v melchisedeck_v have_v both_o these_o honour_n by_o a_o lawful_a and_o ordinary_a call_n but_o so_o have_v not_o the_o pope_n for_o his_o priesthood_n we_o grant_v he_o have_v once_o thereto_o a_o lawful_a call_n both_o by_o local_a and_o doctrinal_a succession_n which_o doctrinal_a succession_n irenaeus_n call_v successionem_fw-la principalem_fw-la tertullian_n doctrinae_fw-la consanguinitatem_fw-la cum_fw-la apostolica_fw-la ecclesia_fw-la prescript_n but_o now_o have_v they_o forsake_v that_o principal_a succession_n and_o have_v nothing_o leave_v to_o glory_n in_o but_o bare_a personal_a and_o local_a succession_n then_o to_o the_o office_n of_o a_o bishop_n the_o pope_n may_v show_v some_o colour_n though_o the_o colour_n be_v now_o wear_v threadbare_a but_o to_o the_o princely_a office_n which_o he_o claim_v over_o the_o church_n he_o can_v show_v neither_o calling_n nor_o colour_n so_o that_o the_o example_n of_o melchisedek_n which_o the_o pope_n parasite_n draw_v with_o such_o violence_n to_o he_o do_v help_v he_o nothing_o but_o rather_o help_v the_o cause_n of_o christian_a king_n against_o he_o for_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o king_n be_v priest_n by_o a_o ordinary_a call_n before_o these_o two_o office_n be_v distinguish_v but_o it_o can_v never_o be_v prove_v that_o priest_n be_v king_n by_o such_o a_o ordinary_a call_n after_o that_o these_o two_o office_n be_v set_v in_o distinct_a person_n if_o any_o man_n suppose_v that_o we_o have_v stretch_v the_o example_n of_o melchisedeck_v too_o far_o because_o he_o be_v a_o type_n of_o christ_n i_o answer_v this_o be_v nothing_o against_o my_o purpose_n that_o melchisedeck_v be_v a_o type_n of_o christ._n for_o many_o man_n in_o their_o ordinary_a stand_n and_o execute_v ordinary_a function_n do_v also_o bear_v some_o type_n extraordinary_a thus_o do_v moses_n joshua_n david_n solomon_n and_o other_o i_o speak_v of_o melchisedeck_v as_o i_o find_v he_o in_o his_o ordinary_a place_n a_o king_n and_o a_o priest_n 8._o by_o all_o which_o we_o conclude_v that_o under_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n king_n be_v in_o the_o beginning_n invest_v with_o all_o power_n ecclesiastical_a both_o of_o order_n and_o jurisdiction_n and_o therefore_o these_o thing_n be_v not_o incompatible_a by_o nature_n all_o this_o time_n which_o last_v about_o the_o space_n of_o two_o thousand_o and_o five_o hundred_o year_n king_n have_v ecclesiastical_a jurisdiction_n without_o question_n and_o therefore_o this_o jurisdiction_n of_o prince_n which_o we_o have_v undertake_v to_o examine_v be_v find_v answerable_a to_o the_o first_o government_n of_o the_o world_n until_o the_o time_n of_o the_o law_n give_v by_o moses_n chap._n iii_o all_o external_a jurisdiction_n coactive_a be_v a_o right_n belong_v to_o king_n under_o the_o

law_n then_o we_o find_v by_o a_o especial_a commandment_n of_o god_n these_o two_o office_n of_o king_n and_o priest_n be_v distinguish_v and_o set_v in_o two_o several_a person_n the_o one_o in_o

office_n and_o the_o priest_n be_v thus_o distinguish_v we_o must_v consider_v what_o thing_n do_v proper_o belong_v to_o each_o office_n 2._o first_o we_o find_v that_o moses_n who_o have_v the_o

think_v extraordinailry_n to_o belong_v to_o moses_n as_o god_n apostle_n or_o ambassador_n and_o lawgiver_n unto_o israel_n for_o in_o such_o great_a change_n as_o be_v from_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n to_o the_o write_a law_n somewhat_o must_v be_v admit_v extraordinary_a and_o this_o i_o can_v be_v well_o content_a to_o understand_v so_o though_o many_o doubt_n arise_v for_o the_o prince_n right_a against_o the_o priest_n for_o first_o it_o may_v be_v object_v see_v there_o be_v a_o prince_n and_o a_o priest_n set_v up_o distinct_a one_o from_o the_o other_o why_o shall_v the_o prince_n consecrate_v the_o priest_n and_o not_o the_o priest_n the_o prince_n but_o here_o we_o find_v that_o aaron_n do_v not_o consecrate_v moses_n to_o be_v prince_n but_o moses_n do_v consecrate_v aaron_n to_o be_v priest_n another_o doubt_n may_v be_v move_v why_o moses_n shall_v consecrate_v not_o only_a aaron_n but_o his_o son_n also_o for_o though_o we_o shall_v admit_v the_o

the_o
power_n of_o the_o spirit_n take_v upon_o they_o power_n above_o the_o civil_a magistrate_n practise_v whole_o coactive_a power_n which_o they_o call_v spiritual_a when_o they_o have_v forsake_v the_o
