that_o these_o two_o regiment_n be_v not_o confound_v lest_o that_o any_o infer_v or_o conclude_v a_o civil_a liberty_n against_o politic_a government_n by_o this_o spiritual_a liberty_n which_o christ_n have_v purchase_v for_o us._n xxi_o again_o in_o constitution_n &_o law_n concern_v spiritual_a government_n we_o must_v careful_o discern_v between_o order_n lawful_o and_o unlawful_o establish_v for_o constitution_n and_o order_n lawful_a be_v consonant_a to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n but_o the_o unlawful_a be_v contrary_a to_o the_o same_o xxii_o and_o whereas_o paul_n 13._o paul_n rom._n 13._o command_v to_o obey_v the_o magistrate_n for_o conscience_n sake_n he_o do_v not_o therein_o bind_v conscience_n to_o law_n politic_a but_o this_o he_o mean_v only_o that_o we_o must_v obey_v the_o magistrate_n so_o far_o and_o so_o long_o as_o he_o command_v thing_n lawful_a and_o honest_a for_o that_o god_n also_o command_v we_o such_o obedience_n &_o we_o can_v not_o with_o good_a conscience_n neglect_v any_o of_o his_o decree_n therefore_o the_o apostle_n do_v not_o here_o make_v the_o conscience_n subject_a to_o any_o law_n of_o man_n but_o unto_o the_o law_n of_o god_n command_v we_o to_o obey_v the_o law_n of_o man_n so_o far_o forth_o as_o they_o do_v not_o repugn_v the_o holy_a law_n of_o god_n xxiii_o this_o may_v yet_o be_v understand_v if_o we_o

bind_v a_o man_n simple_o without_o respect_n or_o consideration_n of_o man_n xxvii_o final_o the_o law_n of_o god_n which_o command_v in_o the_o use_n of_o indifferent_a thing_n to_o regard_v the_o
