A10151 The right of Kings conteyning a defence of their supremacy, over all persons and in all causes, as well ecclesiasticall as civill, within their severall dominions : herewithall is proved by testimony of Holy Scripture, that Christian Kinges are to haue such dignity, and execute such office in the Christian church, as Gods kinges had exercised in the church under the lawe : which part of the mysterie of Gods will, as it hath been wickedly under poperie shut up from men, so it is in our tymes right needfull that the same be opened to all Christian nations.

the_o apostle_n paul_n purposely_o provide_v that_o none_o shall_v conceive_v he_o to_o have_v receive_v his_o doctrine_n of_o man_n or_o by_o man._n and_o as_o for_o building_n upon_o the_o apostle_n peter_n allowance_n or_o approbation_n of_o his_o doctrine_n it_o be_v very_o absurd_a that_o the_o apostle_n paul_n shall_v build_v or_o ground_v himself_o for_o his_o doctrine_n upon_o peter_n allowance_n thereof_o or_o the_o authority_n of_o such_o allowance_n when_o he_o receive_v his_o doctrine_n from_o the_o lord_n himself_o for_o it_o be_v true_o absurd_a to_o seek_v a_o apostle_n allowance_n and_o to_o build_v upon_o the_o authority_n of_o such_o allowance_n for_o that_o receive_v immediate_o from_o the_o lord_n of_o the_o apostle_n so_o likewise_o the_o church_n who_o receive_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o apostle_n paul_n inasmuch_o as_o they_o believe_v that_o he_o receive_v it_o not_o of_o peter_n but_o of_o christ_n how_o seek_v they_o either_o or_o how_o build_v they_o upon_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o apostle_n peter_n approbation_n there_o be_v indeed_o a_o approbation_n gal._n 2.7_o but_o not_o a_o building_n upon_o such_o approbation_n see_v the_o apostle_n have_v a_o high_a warrant_n and_o authority_n for_o his_o doctrine_n last_o see_v it_o be_v very_o apparent_a mark_v 3.14_o that_o our_o lord_n himself_o choose_v the_o apostle_n and_o authorize_v they_o to_o the_o apostolical_a ministration_n &_o see_v the_o apostle_n paul_n gal._n 1.1_o say_v paul_n a_o apostle_n not_o of_o man_n neither_o by_o man_n but_o by_o jesus_n christ_n therefore_o who_o receive_v not_o their_o ministration_n from_o peter_n how_o shall_v they_o receive_v from_o he_o the_o doctrine_n whereof_o they_o be_v apostolical_a minister_n i_o conclude_v therefore_o that_o all_o the_o apostle_n be_v not_o feed_v with_o doctrine_n by_o peter_n &_o consequent_o that_o apostle_n be_v not_o to_o feed_v all_o the_o lord_n sheep_n with_o matter_n of_o doctrine_n and_o as_o for_o feed_v they_o with_o government_n by_o exercise_v a_o supreme_a rule_n over_o they_o this_o also_o appear_v to_o be_v a_o false_a collection_n from_o this_o scripture_n inasmuch_o as_o we_o find_v that_o our_o lord_n express_o forbadd_a unto_o his_o apostle_n any_o one_o of_o they_o to_o rule_v over_o the_o rest_n for_o mark_v 10.42_o our_o lord_n say_v thus_o unto_o the_o apostle_n you_o know_v that_o they_o which_o delight_n to_o bear_v rule_n among_o the_o gentile_n have_v domination_n over_o they_o and_o they_o that_o be_v great_a a-among_a they_o exercise_n authority_n over_o they_o but_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v so_o among_o you_o by_o which_o scripture_n appear_v manifest_o that_o how_o ever_o every_o one_o of_o the_o apostle_n be_v to_o govern_v and_o exercise_v authority_n over_o other_o yet_o none_o of_o they_o be_v to_o govern_v or_o exercise_v authority_n over_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o company_n of_o the_o apostle_n it_o must_v needs_o therefore_o be_v a_o false_a and_o very_o pernicious_a interpretation_n or_o collection_n to_o affirm_v that_o the_o apostle_n peter_n be_v make_v governor_n to_o exercise_v authority_n over_o all_o christ_n sheep_n for_o than_o he_o be_v to_o govern_v and_o exercise_v authority_n over_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n which_o thing_n the_o lord_n express_o forbadd_a now_o if_o the_o generality_n hold_v not_o in_o the_o apostle_n how_o can_v it_o hold_v in_o all_o christ_n sheep_n for_o ever_o if_o peter_n exercise_v not_o such_o universal_a government_n and_o authority_n over_o all_o christ_n sheep_n why_o under_o the_o pretence_n of_o this_o speech_n of_o the_o lord_n shall_v he_o govern_v and_o exercise_v authority_n over_o all_o king_n and_o indeed_o if_o a_o man_n have_v already_o diverse_a shepherd_n say_v to_o one_o of_o they_o feed_v my_o sheep_n shall_v that_o one_o shepherd_n gather_v hereupon_o that_o now_o he_o have_v the_o charge_n of_o all_o his_o master_n sheep_n why_o shall_v he_o not_o rather_o understand_v this_o of_o some_o portion_n of_o sheep_n only_o which_o his_o master_n will_v sure_o allot_v out_o to_o his_o particular_a charge_n for_o he_o may_v well_o think_v with_o himself_o that_o where_o many_o shepherd_n be_v already_o appoint_v there_o all_o the_o sheep_n shall_v not_o be_v commit_v to_o one_o only_a very_o that_o apostle_n excellency_n even_o among_o the_o very_a apostle_n themselves_o be_v such_o &_o such_o will_v be_v acknowledge_v by_o all_o good_a christian_n for_o ever_o that_o it_o need_v not_o to_o be_v help_v with_o unsound_a and_o false_a interpretation_n of_o and_o collection_n from_o holy_a scripture_n thus_o have_v discover_v the_o false_a use_n make_v of_o the_o latter_a of_o the_o two_o scripture_n proceed_v we_o to_o the_o first_o scripture_n as_o for_o the_o first_o scripture_n from_o whence_o some_o will_v collect_v that_o all_o doctrine_n must_v be_v receive_v from_o peter_n and_o all_o power_n or_o office_n or_o at_o least_o wise_a must_v be_v authorise_v by_o the_o authority_n of_o his_o allowance_n or_o approbation_n that_o so_o they_o may_v be_v build_v upon_o the_o rock_n which_o christ_n have_v give_v to_o be_v a_o rock_n whereon_o he_o will_v build_v his_o church_n this_o collection_n appear_v to_o be_v a_o false_a use_n of_o this_o scripture_n in_o asmuch_o as_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n receive_v not_o their_o doctrine_n nor_o power_n of_o apostleship_n from_o the_o apostle_n peter_n but_o from_o christ_n himself_o but_o what_o they_o receive_v from_o the_o lord_n himself_o it_o be_v absurd_a to_o seek_v to_o build_v it_o upon_o the_o authority_n of_o peter_n allowance_n or_o approbation_n the_o apostle_n paul_n as_o i_o have_v before_o note_v speak_v of_o the_o power_n of_o his_o apostleship_n say_v paul_n a_o apostle_n not_o of_o man_n neither_o by_o man_n but_o by_o jesus_n christ_n why_o say_v he_o this_o but_o to_o teach_v we_o that_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o believe_v that_o he_o be_v such_o by_o virtue_n of_o the_o allowance_n or_o approbation_n of_o any_o man_n whatsoever_o and_o whilst_o the_o apostolical_a power_n be_v neither_o receive_v from_o peter_n nor_o build_v nor_o ground_v upon_o the_o authority_n of_o his_o permission_n approbation_n or_o allowance_n why_o shall_v this_o be_v require_v of_o king_n and_o prince_n these_o scripture_n therefore_o what_o ever_o they_o intend_v yet_o this_o which_o papist_n collect_v may_v not_o be_v believe_v to_o be_v the_o thing_n which_o they_o intend_v for_o you_o see_v that_o that_o which_o be_v collect_v from_o they_o by_o papist_n be_v direct_o contrary_a to_o a_o most_o plain_a commandment_n of_o our_o lord_n to_o his_o apostle_n and_o to_o the_o testimony_n of_o the_o apostle_n paul_n thus_o have_v by_o testimony_n of_o several_a scripture_n confute_v these_o collection_n make_v by_o some_o from_o these_o scripture_n i_o think_v it_o sufficient_a to_o oppose_v both_o against_o tradition_n and_o also_o against_o the_o great_a father_n or_o bishop_n this_o testimony_n of_o holy_a scripture_n by_o which_o be_v prove_v that_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n be_v not_o feed_v by_o the_o apostle_n peter_n in_o matter_n of_o doctrine_n and_o that_o he_o be_v not_o to_o exercise_v authority_n or_o rule_n over_o they_o but_o if_o the_o scripture_n thus_o witness_n that_o the_o apostle_n peter_n himself_o may_v not_o lawful_o claim_v this_o supreme_a government_n or_o rule_n over_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n nor_o consequent_o over_o all_o christ_n sheep_n how_o much_o less_o lawful_o than_o may_v his_o successor_n claim_v this_o for_o as_o no_o apostle_n can_v make_v a_o other_o man_n a_o apostle_n so_o no_o successor_n can_v be_v make_v a_o apostle_n by_o the_o apostle_n peter_n and_o not_o be_v so_o much_o as_o a_o apostle_n how_o shall_v he_o claim_v the_o chief_a singularity_n of_o the_o apostle_n peter_n and_o that_o no_o apostle_n can_v make_v a_o apostle_n i_o gather_v from_o the_o apostle_n paul_n who_o gal._n 1.1_o say_v paul_n a_o apostle_n not_o of_o man_n neither_o by_o man_n but_o by_o jesus_n christ_n for_o this_o argue_v that_o a_o apostle_n shall_v not_o be_v of_o man_n neither_o by_o man_n but_o by_o jesus_n christ_n i_o conclude_v therefrom_o that_o no_o successor_n can_v be_v in_o all_o thing_n like_o the_o apostle_n to_o who_o he_o succee_v and_o much_o less_o than_o in_o those_o thing_n by_o which_o if_o by_o any_o thing_n the_o apostle_n peter_n be_v prefer_v unto_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n if_o the_o successor_n have_v confer_v upon_o he_o all_o the_o gift_n and_o prerogative_n of_o a_o apostle_n what_o be_v he_o then_o but_o a_o apostle_n but_o such_o gift_n and_o prerogative_n as_o by_o which_o apostle_n be_v apostle_n can_v not_o be_v give_v by_o man_n but_o by_o christ_n only_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n peter_n neither_o might_n nor_o can_v confer_v upon_o his_o successor_n all_o the_o power_n
do_v the_o proper_a duty_n of_o their_o episcopal_a or_o priestly_a ministration_n or_o which_o occasion_n their_o over_z seldom_o or_o negligent_a do_v the_o same_o that_o be_v ill_o do_v by_o prince_n and_o god_n will_v visit_v they_o both_o for_o draw_v his_o minister_n of_o the_o word_n from_o perform_v their_o proper_a duty_n of_o such_o ministration_n and_o also_o for_o suffer_v unpunished_a any_o such_o omission_n or_o neglect_v of_o these_o duty_n these_o thing_n i_o think_v good_a here_o to_o touch_v at_o because_o it_o may_v occasion_v our_o prince_n to_o hold_v god_n priest_n to_o the_o duty_n proper_a to_o their_o ministration_n and_o to_o punish_v in_o they_o any_o omission_n or_o over_o negligent_a performance_n of_o the_o same_o but_o now_o to_o conclude_v this_o point_n prince_n be_v not_o bare_o as_o executioner_n to_o reward_v the_o good_a and_o punish_v evil_a doer_n but_o they_o be_v costitute_v also_o judge_n by_o the_o lord_n that_o they_o also_o may_v judge_v in_o all_o thing_n to_o which_o the_o word_n already_o reveal_v from_o god_n stretch_v and_o very_o even_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o word_n already_o reveal_v be_v preach_v the_o same_o to_o they_o to_o preach_v as_o to_o god_n judge_n of_o doctrine_n preach_v not_o that_o they_o be_v all_o alike_o capable_a of_o judgement_n in_o such_o thing_n but_o that_o this_o be_v the_o right_n of_o their_o office_n which_o also_o for_o conscience_n towards_o god_n must_v be_v have_v in_o reverence_n thus_o have_v i_o prove_v that_o king_n under_o the_o gospel_n be_v to_o exercise_v such_o dignity_n and_o ministration_n as_o with_o god_n bless_a approbation_n we_o find_v in_o scripture_n that_o god_n king_n exercise_v under_o the_o law_n as_o therefore_o under_o the_o law_n the_o king_n be_v over_o the_o church_n in_o the_o nation_n of_o the_o jew_n as_o moses_n say_v if_o thou_o say_v i_o will_v set_v a_o king_n over_o i_o etc._n etc._n which_o manner_n supremacy_n the_o king_n under_o the_o law_n do_v in_o fact_n exercise_n and_o hold_v and_o as_o under_o the_o law_n the_o king_n do_v not_o only_o reward_v the_o good_a and_o punish_v the_o evil_a but_o do_v also_o judge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_a by_o the_o direction_n of_o the_o word_n give_v he_o restore_v pure_a doctrine_n and_o set_v the_o priest_n and_o levit_n to_o their_o due_a office_n and_o order_v the_o divine_a service_n so_o be_v the_o king_n under_o the_o gospel_n likewise_o to_o do_v be_v over_o the_o church_n in_o their_o several_a dominion_n and_o judge_v of_o what_o be_v good_a and_o

though_o they_o be_v not_o to_o neglect_v not_o the_o advice_n only_o but_o authority_n also_o of_o the_o bishop_n and_o priest_n yet_o they_o be_v not_o to_o take_v for_o their_o direction_n whatsoever_o they_o shall_v advise_v and_o press_v but_o they_o ought_v themselves_o to_o read_v and_o meditate_v in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o to_o judge_v by_o it_o of_o that_o advise_v and_o urge_v by_o the_o bishop_n these_o thing_n concern_v the_o supremacy_n and_o government_n of_o king_n i_o have_v here_o press_v upon_o the_o observation_n of_o prince_n partly_o to_o stir_v they_o up_o to_o mind_v their_o own_o authority_n in_o the_o church_n partly_o to_o instruct_v all_o christian_a subject_n what_o to_o believe_v concern_v their_o duty_n towards_o prince_n but_o now_o have_v this_o do_v i_o think_v it_o fit_a to_o answer_v in_o the_o next_o place_n one_o or_o two_o objection_n which_o either_o be_v or_o may_v peradventure_o be_v make_v against_o this_o which_o former_o i_o have_v write_v the_o first_o objection_n against_o the_o supremacy_n of_o king_n and_o their_o judge_n in_o all_o cause_n and_o govern_v over_o all_o person_n within_o their_o several_a dominion_n

of_o govern_v the_o church_n for_o ever_o this_o opinion_n they_o fortify_v partly_o by_o scripture_n partly_o by_o tradition_n partly_o by_o the_o say_n of_o doctor_n of_o great_a authority_n in_o the_o church_n the_o scripture_n which_o they_o common_o make_v use_v of_o be_v first_o math._n 16.18_o where_o the_o lord_n say_v thus_o unto_o peter_n i_o say_v unto_o thou_o that_o thou_o be_v

thou_o i_o and_o he_o say_v unto_o he_o lord_n thou_o know_v all_o thing_n thou_o know_v that_o i_o love_v thou_o jesus_n say_v unto_o he_o feed_v my_o sheep_n from_o both_o these_o scripture_n they_o collect_v that_o the_o apostle_n peter_n shall_v feed_v all_o the_o lord_n sheep_n for_o ever_o both_o with_o doctrine_n and_o government_n therefore_o all_o the_o lord_n sheep_n must_v receive_v from_o this_o apostle_n their_o doctrine_n and_o power_n or_o office_n that_o so_o they_o may_v be_v build_v upon_o the_o rock_n of_o this_o apostle_n approbation_n or_o allowance_n and_o because_o

the_o pope_n approbation_n of_o all_o doctrine_n and_o receive_v their_o episcopal_a authority_n from_o he_o yea_o king_n also_o receive_v kingdom_n of_o he_o but_o now_o i_o will_v in_o the_o next_o

fit_a to_o write_v first_o of_o the_o latter_a scripture_n because_o the_o false_a use_n make_v thereof_o be_v discover_v it_o will_v the_o more_o easy_o appear_v that_o they_o make_v a_o false_a use_n of_o the_o first_o scripture_n also_o if_o from_o the_o lord_n word_n in_o say_v to_o peter_n feed_v my_o lamb_n feed_v my_o sheep_n it_o be_v collect_v that_o peter_n must_v feed_v all_o christ_n sheep_n and_o this_o also_o both_o with_o doctrine_n and_o government_n than_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n as_o well_o as_o any_o other_o must_v be_v thus_o feed_v by_o peter_n see_v they_o also_o be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o lord_n sheep_n but_o see_v feed_v be_v take_v in_o matter_n of_o doctrine_n for_o the_o receive_n of_o doctrine_n from_o he_o or_o ground_v upon_o the_o authority_n of_o his_o approbation_n and_o see_v feed_v in_o matter_n of_o government_n be_v take_v for_o a_o bear_a rule_n over_o all_o christ_n sheep_n and_o that_o all_o power_n or_o office_n ecclesiastical_a and_o civil_a be_v to_o be_v derive_v from_o he_o or_o ground_v upon_o the_o authority_n of_o his_o approbation_n therefore_o i_o be_o to_o prove_v by_o testimony_n of_o holy_a scripture_n that_o we_o be_v not_o thus_o to_o understand_v the_o lord_n in_o this_o speech_n of_o he_o for_o matter_n of_o doctrine_n it_o be_v well_o know_v that_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n receive_v not_o their_o doctrine_n from_o peter_n but_o from_o the_o lord_n christ_n even_o as_o peter_n himself_o do_v neither_o be_v they_o to_o ground_n or_o build_v that_o upon_o the_o

matter_n of_o doctrine_n moreover_o the_o apostle_n paul_n galat._n 1.11_o testify_v say_v i_o certify_v you_o brethren_n that_o the_o gospel_n which_o be_v preach_v of_o i_o be_v not_o after_o man_n

peter_n feed_v not_o the_o apostle_n paul_n with_o doctrine_n but_o rather_o
the_o pope_n excommunication_n indeed_o change_v condition_n in_o the_o excommunicate_a but_o not_o in_o this_o measure_n nor_o to_o this_o effect_n for_o than_o we_o must_v not_o do_v as_o the_o

this_o objection_n also_o i_o will_v now_o conclude_v this_o treatise_n with_o a_o exhortation_n to_o subject_n a_o exhortation_n to_o subiest_n see_v god_n reveil_v his_o will_n by_o his_o apostle_n declare_v himself_o to_o accept_v gracious_o of_o the_o king_n and_o prince_n already_o among_o the_o gentile_n as_o king_n and_o prince_n already_o provide_v for_o the_o church_n among_o the_o

approve_a of_o dignity_n and_o government_n of_o god_n king_n in_o the_o church_n under_o the_o law_n therefore_o it_o behove_v all_o man_n to_o yield_v they_o due_a subjection_n obey_v they_o willing_o as_o god_n minister_n in_o all_o thing_n wherein_o we_o find_v god_n king_n under_o the_o law_n obey_v with_o the_o lord_n approbation_n as_o under_o the_o law_n therefore_o king_n be_v over_o the_o priest_n exercise_v authority_n over_o they_o both_o in_o set_v they_o to_o their_o due_a office_n if_o they_o neglect_v they_o and_o also_o in_o punish_v they_o for_o evil_a do_v 1._o chron._n 2.26_o so_o if_o king_n in_o the_o christian_a church_n do_v likewise_o christian_a people_n ought_v to_o acknowledge_v that_o the_o king_n be_v by_o god_n ordinance_n thus_o to_o do_v again_o if_o christian_a king_n take_v care_n of_o doctrine_n also_o see_v to_o it_o that_o bishop_n and_o teacher_n teach_v according_a to_o god_n word_n or_o if_o they_o order_v the_o divine_a service_n according_a to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n reveil_v in_o his_o word_n and_o in_o a_o word_n if_o they_o see_v the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n observe_v aswell_o in_o ecclesiastical_a as_o civil_a affair_n punish_v also_o aswell_o the_o clergy_n as_o other_o offend_v we_o ought_v to_o acknowledge_v that_o the_o king_n be_v by_o god_n ordinance_n such_o a_o minister_n as_o have_v right_a to_o use_v this_o ministration_n in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n within_o his_o own_o dominion_n let_v not_o man_n be_v lead_v away_o of_o that_o romish_a delusion_n by_o which_o king_n be_v debar_v from_o exercise_v in_o the_o church_n the_o dignity_n &_o office_n of_o god_n king_n in_o the_o church_n under_o the_o law_n disobey_v their_o prince_n in_o their_o use_v their_o authority_n in_o these_o thing_n see_v in_o all_o these_o thing_n the_o scripture_n witness_v that_o god_n king_n under_o the_o law_n exercise_v their_o authority_n but_o rather_o let_v man_n with_o comfort_n of_o conscience_n acknowledge_v this_o supreme_a dignity_n and_o office_n in_o king_n that_o so_o they_o be_v not_o find_v resister_n of_o the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n if_o any_o say_v shall_v we_o not_o make_v conscience_n of_o thing_n as_o our_o teacher_n teach_v we_o then_o i_o answer_v that_o if_o you_o by_o evil_a teacher_n be_v lead_v to_o do_v evil_a in_o disobey_v the_o lawful_a thing_n do_v by_o your_o king_n it_o will_v not_o serve_v for_o defence_n of_o the_o evil_a to_o say_v your_o teacher_n teach_v you_o so_o for_o by_o what_o mean_v soever_o you_o do_v evil_a the_o king_n be_v god_n minister_n to_o punish_v you_o for_o evil_n do_v you_o must_v beware_v therefore_o of_o false_a teacher_n that_o you_o be_v not_o lead_v by_o they_o as_o their_o disciple_n into_o error_n act._n 20.30_o and_o you_o have_v a_o charge_n give_v you_o by_o the_o apostle_n 2_o thes_n 2._o 15_o that_o you_o be_v not_o move_v by_o any_o from_o that_o which_o in_o scripture_n be_v receive_v from_o
