vanity_n nor_o keep_v our_o place_n of_o profit_n and_o benefit_n which_o be_v necessary_a for_o our_o society_n of_o priest_n ergo_fw-la but_o we_o who_o eye_n god_n have_v open_v do_v see_v that_o all_o his_o book_n tend_v to_o the_o persuade_n of_o people_n to_o swear_v when_o christ_n have_v say_v swear_v not_o at_o all_o and_o that_o which_o he_o now_o will_v swear_v for_o again_o will_v swear_v against_o for_o the_o same_o advantage_n and_o profit_n which_o he_o have_v in_o his_o eye_n yea_o or_o he_o will_v persuade_v all_o man_n not_o to_o swear_v and_o bring_v scripture_n to_o prove_v it_o upon_o the_o same_o account_n so_o that_o what_o he_o do_v in_o this_o kind_n be_v because_o of_o advantage_n for_o two_o year_n since_o he_o do_v not_o preach_v this_o doctrine_n nor_o write_v those_o argument_n now_o it_o be_v prove_v that_o the_o follower_n of_o christ_n and_o believer_n in_o he_o be_v not_o to_o swear_v at_o all_o than_o all_o those_o promissory_a oath_n upon_o which_o john_n tomb_n have_v ground_v his_o other_o proposition_n be_v not_o to_o be_v take_v but_o again_o to_o prove_v a_o oath_n of_o supremacy_n to_o king_n caesar_n he_o bring_v the_o example_n and_o rule_n of_o christ_n and_o argue_v thus_o if_o the_o lord_n christ_n in_o the_o day_n of_o his_o flesh_n do_v accowledge_n caesar_n as_o supreme_a governor_n in_o his_o dominion_n and_o do_v subject_v himself_o to_o his_o jurisdiction_n in_o answer_v before_o the_o roman_a deputy_n and_o be_v obedient_a to_o his_o parant_n real_a or_o suppose_a than_o all_o christian_n even_o the_o high_a ecclesiastical_a prelate_n shall_v be_v subject_a to_o the_o king_n as_o supreme_a governor_n in_o his_o dominion_n and_o for_o proof_n of_o this_o bring_v mat._n 22.21_o when_o the_o pharise_n show_v jesus_n the_o tribute_n money_n christ_n bid_v they_o give_v unto_o caesar_n that_o which_o be_v caesar_n and_o unto_o god_n the_o thing_n that_o be_v god_n so_o than_o it_o be_v the_o tribute_n money_n that_o be_v due_a to_o caesar_n but_o do_v this_o prone_a that_o christ_n do_v swear_v or_o be_v any_o example_n of_o swear_v to_o caesar_n or_o account_n caesar_n the_o head_n of_o the_o church_n and_o ruler_n in_o ecclesiastical_a thing_n so_o that_o this_o scripture_n prove_v the_o contrary_a then_o for_o that_o which_o thou_o bring_v it_o for_o those_o pharisee_n that_o bring_v the_o money_n to_o christ_n say_v they_o know_v that_o he_o respect_v no_o man_n person_n but_o teach_v the_o way_n of_o god_n in_o truth_n so_o than_o if_o christ_n be_v our_o example_n and_o rule_n in_o this_o then_o to_o the_o supreme_a king_n or_o king_n we_o must_v not_o respect_v their_o person_n but_o give_v they_o their_o due_n which_o be_v that_o tribute_n which_o have_v their_o own_o superscription_n upon_o it_o and_o we_o must_v teach_v the_o way_n of_o god_n in_o truth_n and_o give_v unto_o god_n the_o thing_n which_o be_v god_n which_o be_v all_o honour_n glory_n and_o rule_v in_o spiritual_a matter_n and_o give_v to_o christ_n alone_o the_o pre-eminence_n which_o be_v head_n of_o his_o body_n which_o be_v his_o church_n and_o we_o must_v not_o swear_v at_o all_o neither_o for_o nor_o against_o any_o man_n for_o christ_n do_v not_o swear_v neither_o for_o nor_o against_o cesar_n and_o we_o must_v live_v peaceable_o with_o all_o man_n not_o envy_n nor_o fight_v for_o nor_o against_o any_o man_n and_o this_o be_v quite_o contrary_a to_o what_o jo._n tomb_n will_v persuade_v people_n or_o to_o what_o he_o understand_v from_o the_o scripture_n which_o will_v make_v people_n believe_v that_o christ_n be_v a_o example_n of_o the_o oath_n of_o supremacy_n to_o cesar_n so_o that_o people_n may_v well_o be_v blind_a and_o ignorant_a who_o have_v such_o teacher_n but_o we_o also_o shall_v follow_v the_o example_n of_o christ_n as_o 1_o tim._n 6.13_o who_o do_v witness_v a_o good_a confession_n before_o pontius_n pilate_n and_o this_o be_v a_o good_a confession_n before_o any_o king_n or_o ruler_n now_o to_o say_v that_o we_o have_v obey_v the_o truth_n from_o our_o heart_n and_o have_v not_o break_v the_o command_n of_o christ_n by_o swear_v for_o nor_o against_o any_o neither_o have_v we_o transgress_v the_o example_n of_o christ_n in_o respect_v any_o man_n person_n neither_o do_v we_o in_o our_o heart_n envy_v any_o man_n king_n ruler_n nor_o people_n but_o have_v love_n even_o to_o our_o enemy_n and_o can_v do_v good_a to_o they_o that_o hate_v we_o and_o can_v pray_v for_o they_o that_o persecute_v we_o and_o do_v desire_n and_o daily_a labour_n that_o all_o man_n may_v come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n that_o they_o may_v be_v save_v and_o this_o good_a confession_n we_o can_v witness_v before_o the_o king_n or_o any_o in_o authority_n and_o say_v that_o god_n be_v our_o witness_n and_o our_o conscience_n also_o bear_v we_o witness_v in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n as_o the_o apostle_n do_v and_o we_o can_v say_v also_o that_o we_o speak_v the_o truth_n before_o god_n and_o lie_v not_o for_o our_o eye_n be_v not_o blind_v with_o gift_n and_o reward_n neither_o have_v we_o take_v oath_n covenant_n nor_o protestation_n for_o party_n power_n or_o religion_n but_o since_o we_o know_v the_o way_n of_o christ_n we_o have_v walk_v in_o it_o and_o keep_v to_o his_o commandment_n and_o oath_n which_o be_v yea_o and_o nay_o in_o all_o thing_n and_o so_o have_v not_o enter_v into_o condemnation_n with_o those_o that_o be_v give_v to_o change_v but_o the_o unchangeable_a priest_n the_o unchangeable_a covenant_n and_o unchangeable_a law_n have_v be_v our_o rule_n and_o of_o this_o we_o need_v not_o be_v ashamed_a but_o in_o god_n power_n and_o authority_n can_v we_o hold_v up_o our_o head_n when_o other_o do_v bow_v down_o their_o back_n always_o crouch_v under_o every_o power_n and_o change_v of_o government_n as_o david_n enemy_n do_v psal._n 69.23_o for_o that_o be_v their_o place_n and_o condition_n as_o the_o apostle_n do_v witness_n rom._n 11.10_o again_o jo._n tomb_n say_v that_o paul_n a_o saint_n be_v subject_a to_o the_o judgement_n of_o caesar_n and_o appeal_v to_o he_o than_o he_o acknowledge_v he_o supreme_a etc._n etc._n ergo_fw-la ans._n paul_n be_v a_o prisoner_n for_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o testimony_n of_o jesus_n and_o appeal_v to_o caesar_n for_o justice_n because_o he_o be_v unjust_o accuse_v and_o have_v not_o do_v any_o thing_n worthy_a of_o bond_n or_o of_o death_n therefore_o according_a to_o their_o law_n he_o ought_v to_o be_v set_v free_a but_o paul_n do_v not_o call_v caesar_n the_o supreme_a head_n of_o the_o church_n and_o chief_a ruler_n in_o ecclesiastical_a thing_n for_o if_o caesar_n have_v be_v the_o supreme_a head_n of_o the_o church_n of_o which_o paul_n be_v a_o member_n he_o will_v but_o have_v need_v little_a appeal_n unto_o for_o set_v of_o he_o at_o liberty_n but_o in_o such_o argument_n as_o tomb_n have_v use_v be_v manifest_v the_o ignorance_n of_o foolish_a man_n wherein_o their_o folly_n appear_v to_o all_o man_n as_o the_o scripture_n say_v 2_o tim._n 3.9_o and_o whereas_o thou_o say_v that_o there_o be_v holy_a and_o harmless_a christian_n and_o many_o upright_a soul_n who_o conscience_n be_v very_o tender_a and_o many_o godly_a person_n that_o have_v except_v against_o that_o

these_o that_o be_v so_o be_v in_o a_o better_a condition_n than_o thyself_o and_o to_o such_o thy_o ministry_n if_o receive_v will_v beget_v they_o from_o their_o holy_a and_o harmless_a state_n into_o transgression_n of_o christ_n command_n and_o from_o the_o tenderness_n of_o conscience_n into_o hardness_n of_o heart_n and_o now_o to_o answer_v their_o objection_n thou_o tell_v they_o that_o it_o be_v impose_v for_o exclude_v of_o the_o pope_n jurisdiction_n etc._n etc._n if_o so_o why_o do_v thou_o preach_v it_o up_o to_o be_v impose_v upon_o the_o holy_a harmless_a godly_a

all_o such_o oath_n thou_o be_v a_o miserable_a comforter_n to_o tender_a conscience_n but_o thy_o end_n be_v see_v and_o therefore_o thou_o can_v deceive_v many_o but_o for_o those_o that_o thou_o
