A91309 Truth triumphing over falshood, antiquity over novelty. Or, The first part of a just and seasonable vindication of the undoubted ecclesiasticall iurisdiction, right, legislative, coercive power of Christian emperors, kings, magistrates, parliaments, in all matters of religion, church-government, discipline, ceremonies, manners: summoning of, presiding, moderating in councells, synods; and ratifying their canons, determinations, decrees: as likewise of lay-mens right both to sit and vote in councells; ... In refutation of Mr. Iohn Goodwins Innocencies Triumph: my deare brother Burtons Vindication of churches, commonly called Independent: and of all anti-monarchicall, anti-Parliamentall, anti-synodicall, and anarchicall paradoxes of papists, prelates, Anabaptists, Arminians, Socinians, Brownists, or Independents: whose old and new objections to the contrary, are here fully answered. / By William Prynne, of Lincolnes Inne, Esquire. Prynne, William, 1600-1669. 1645 (1645) Wing P4115; Thomason E259_1; ESTC R212479 202,789 171

breach_n of_o god_n law_n with_o temporal_a punishment_n yet_o by_o this_o god_n law_n become_v not_o temporal_a and_o unobligatory_a to_o the_o conscience_n so_o god_n on_o the_o other_o side_n may_v

text_n take_v not_o away_o the_o power_n of_o make_v necessary_a temp●rall_n or_o ecclesiastical_a law_n for_o then_o no_o such_o law_n can_v possible_o be_v make_v by_o any_o but_o the_o meaning_n

in_o point_n of_o religion_n or_o conscience_n and_o to_o change_v the_o mere_a indifferency_n of_o it_o into_o a_o thing_n simple_o good_a or_o evil_n and_o not_o humane_a lawgiver_n therefore_o we_o

of_o scandal_n or_o contempt_n of_o humane_a law_n to_o engage_v we_o to_o use_v or_o not_o to_o use_v they_o but_o it_o reach_v not_o to_o such_o humane_a law_n civil_a or_o ecclesiastical_a which_o
