true_a that_o they_o make_v the_o division_n from_o the_o catholic_n church_n but_o do_v it_o right_o and_o worthy_o for_o the_o intolerable_a error_n and_o damnable_a doctrine_n which_o then_o

under_o a_o picture_n that_o the_o people_n were-bound_a to_o do_v it_o in_o his_o annotation_n upon_o the_o same_o place_n he_o call_v himself_o in_o question_n for_o antilogy_n in_o this_o particular_a for_o in_o n._n 14._o he_o have_v teach_v that_o to_o worship_n god_n by_o a_o picture_n or_o any_o image_n be_v to_o limit_v god_n to_o a_o certain_a term_n which_o be_v against_o the_o

the_o obeyer_n by_o reason_n they_o worship_v he_o thus_o upon_o compulsion_n he_o add_v that_o if_o god_n shall_v special_o forbid_v to_o be_v worship_v by_o the_o use_n of_o a_o image_n that_o then_o such_o a_o command_n can_v not_o be_v obey_v as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o decalogue_n be_v express_o idolatry_n be_v prohibit_v afterward_o in_o the_o 16._o chapter_n n._n 10._o treat_v of_o the_o

he_o confess_v that_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v according_a to_o reason_n he_o confess_v also_o in_o his_o annotation_n cite_v that_o to_o worship_n god_n under_o a_o image_n be_v against_o reason_n because_o idolatry_n not_o only_o because_o now_o god_n have_v forbid_v it_o as_o he_o say_v but_o in_o itself_o namely_o because_o as_o he_o say_v before_o it_o be_v to_o prescribe_v a_o term_n to_o his_o infinity_n and_o consequent_o to_o make_v god_n to_o be_v finite_a whence_o it_o follow_v first_o that_o though_o idolatry_n be_v against_o the_o light_n of_o reason_n and_o therefore_o intrinsical_o wicked_a yet_o know_o i_o may_v do_v it_o if_o command_v by_o a_o magistrate_n so_o that_o a_o inferior_a power_n namely_o a_o power_n derive_v from_o myself_o can_v command_v i_o that_o which_o be_v absolute_o prohibit_v by_o the_o high_a power_n as_o be_v that_o of_o nature_n and_o i_o be_o bind_v to_o obey_v it_o with_o neglect_n of_o the_o other_o though_o supreme_a yet_o the_o magistrate_n can_v command_v it_o but_o against_o reason_n and_o therefore_o such_o a_o command_n can_v be_v obligatory_a because_o in_o his_o 5._o chapter_n and_o n._n 17._o reason_n be_v the_o limit_n of_o that_o power_n be_v not_o these_o inconsistence_n again_o he_o say_v that_o moral_a compulsion_n for_o a_o command_n be_v no_o more_o will_v render_v a_o act_n of_o idolatry_n lawful_a because_o it_o will_v exempt_v it_o from_o idolatry_n this_o be_v destructive_a of_o all_o religion_n and_o true_o of_o reason_n in_o all_o school_n of_o philosophy_n where_o aristotle_n in_o his_o ethic_n and_o all_o other_o teach_v that_o we_o must_v lose_v our_o life_n for_o virtue_n itself_o again_o he_o say_v that_o if_o god_n make_v a_o positive_a law_n to_o the_o contrary_a as_o he_o suppose_v he_o have_v that_o then_o i_o may_v not_o obey_v the_o former_a command_n of_o a_o magistrate_n how_o this_o be_v reconcilable_a to_o his_o former_a tenet_n that_o worship_v god_n by_o image_n be_v against_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n and_o yet_o only_o unlawful_a if_o command_v by_o magistracy_n because_o in_o the_o decalogue_n or_o positive_a law_n it_o be_v again_o forbid_a i_o
