A28149	The Saints freedom from tyranny vindicated, or, The power of pagan caesars and antichristian kings examined and they condemned by the prophets and apostles, as no magistrates of God to be obeyed by saints for the Lords sake : being the coppy of an answer to a private letter, wherein the civil power of Satan and antichristian states is soberly debated ... / by a lover of truth.

be_v invest_v by_o the_o father_n etc._n mat._n 28._o 18._o eph._n 1._o 20_o 21_o etc._n etc._n with_o all_o power_n in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n then_o the_o heathen_a king_n from_o christ_n time_n to_o the_o rise_n of_o antichrist_n be_v usurper_n and_o not_o the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n to_o be_v obey_v by_o saint_n in_o civil_a thing_n but_o it_o be_v your_o thought_n as_o i_o take_v it_o that_o antichrist_n in_o his_o civil_a state_n be_v the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n magisterial_a and_o to_o be_v obey_v by_o the_o lord_n people_n in_o civil_a thing_n as_o derive_v from_o the_o heathen_a magistratical_a power_n or_o from_o the_o roman_a state_n your_o word_n be_v these_o i_o take_v the_o dragon_n to_o be_v the_o old_a pagan_a empire_n as_o it_o be_v act_v by_o satan_n in_o

since_o satan_n act_v both_o reply_n to_o this_o i_o make_v my_o humble_a reply_n first_o i_o be_o not_o yet_o convince_v from_o scripture_n or_o argument_n that_o any_o heathen_a emperor_n or_o king_n be_v ordain_v by_o god_n to_o rule_v and_o govern_v his_o people_n from_o he_o as_o his_o magistrate_n or_o minister_n of_o state_n who_o be_v act_v and_o influence_v by_o the_o devil_n and_o answer_v not_o the_o end_n of_o magistracy_n as_o ordain_v by_o god_n second_o it_o be_v my_o understanding_n that_o upon_o christ_n baptism_n he_o enter_v upon_o his_o mediatorship_n and_o upon_o all_o his_o mediatory_a 41._o mat._n 3._o 16_o 17._o john_n 1._o 41._o office_n actual_o and_o visible_o in_o the_o world_n and_o that_o all_o disciple_n believe_v and_o visible_o close_v with_o christ_n as_o mediator_n prophet_n priest_n and_o king_n note_v be_v actual_o dismiss_v and_o disengaged_n from_o the_o curse_n and_o bondage_n of_o that_o heathen_a yoke_n which_o be_v bring_v upon_o god_n covenant-people_n for_o 45._o isa_n 10._o 27._o john_n 1._o 41_o 45._o their_o rebellion_n against_o god_n his_o law_n and_o government_n three_o i_o can_v easy_o grant_v note_v that_o the_o same_o satan_n act_v the_o pagan_a empire_n and_o antichrist_n and_o also_o that_o the_o dragon_n or_o pagan_a empire_n give_v to_o the_o beast_n antichrist_n his_o power_n his_o 2_o ●ev_n 13._o 2_o seat_n and_o great_a authority_n viz._n all_o that_o power_n and_o authority_n in_o the_o roman_a or_o western_a empire_n which_o rest_v in_o the_o dragon_n or_o the_o devil_n to_o give_v and_o this_o power_n and_o authority_n be_v all_o which_o the_o beast_n antichrist_n ever_o have_v note_n but_o it_o be_v not_o prove_v that_o god_n ever_o give_v unto_o the_o devil_n such_o power_n or_o invest_v the_o pagan_a empire_n either_o with_o the_o power_n of_o government_n in_o that_o empire_n or_o with_o power_n and_o authority_n to_o invest_v and_o install_v another_o state_n to_o rule_n as_o god_n minister_n and_o it_o be_v my_o judgement_n that_o neither_o the_o dragon_n have_v power_n of_o authority_n from_o god_n to_o constitute_v a_o new_a state_n or_o to_o divolve_v civil_a power_n and_o authority_n magisterial_a as_o god_n ordinance_n upon_o the_o beast_n antichrist_n or_o that_o christian_a believer_n be_v bind_v from_o god_n to_o receive_v and_o obey_v antichrist_n command_n in_o civil_a thing_n because_o the_o dragon_n give_v he_o his_o power_n i_o humble_o judge_v that_o your_o inference_n can_v be_v bind_v to_o the_o lord_n people_n until_o these_o two_o thing_n be_v prove_v first_o that_o the_o heathen_a dragonical_a state_n be_v the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n entrust_v with_o supreme_a authority_n royal_a in_o all_o the_o world_n as_o lord_n and_o lawgiver_n second_o that_o the_o dragonical_a state_n or_o power_n be_v invest_v and_o entrust_v by_o god_n to_o constitute_v another_o supreme_a royal_a state_n civil_a in_o the_o world_n note_n act_n of_o royalty_n put_v out_o prove_v not_o the_o authority_n to_o be_v from_o god_n but_o it_o be_v ground_n of_o strong_a suspicion_n if_o not_o of_o demonstration_n that_o the_o power_n and_o authority_n which_o be_v act_v 11._o isa_n 10._o 5_o etc._n etc._n 2_o king_n 24._o 1_o 2_o etc._n etc._n 2_o thes_n 2._o 10_o 11._o and_o influence_v from_o the_o devil_n be_v not_o of_o god_n appoint_v or_o ordain_v but_o only_o by_o god_n permission_n and_o suffering_n in_o his_o just_a judgement_n and_o to_o this_o i_o may_v add_v note_v that_o throughout_o the_o book_n of_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n old_a babylon_n and_o mystery_n babylon_n be_v declare_v the_o object_n and_o subject_n of_o divine_a wrath_n and_o vengeance_n and_o therefore_o not_o the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n as_o most_o take_v to_o be_v divine_a i_o can_v grant_v that_o by_o corruption_n evil_a and_o vile_a man_n may_v get_v in_o and_o be_v in_o power_n of_o government_n 4._o psal_n 12._o 8_o hos_fw-la 5._o 1._o and_o 8._o 4._o isa_n 3._o 1_o 4._o which_o be_v appoint_v by_o god_n the_o which_o god_n do_v not_o approve_v but_o threaten_v and_o judge_v where_o such_o offence_n be_v commit_v and_o not_o reform_v now_o this_o be_v the_o evil_a of_o person_n and_o not_o the_o evil_a of_o government_n as_o ordain_v by_o god_n note_n and_o in_o that_o case_n the_o lord_n by_o his_o righteous_a judgement_n may_v and_o do_v punish_v a_o nation_n both_o with_o and_o for_o wicked_a king_n and_o ruler_n god_n also_o preceptive_o and_o providential_o remove_v evil_a king_n and_o ruler_n in_o israel_n and_o judah_n yet_o still_o continue_v magistracy_n as_o his_o ordinance_n but_o both_o babylon_n literal_o 26._o isa_n 1._o 24_o 25_o 26._o and_o babylon_n mystical_o in_o their_o civil_a and_o ecclesist●ical_a state_n shall_v be_v perfect_o destroy_v which_o be_v yet_o remain_v and_o therefore_o &c_n jer._n 25._o 12_o 13._o rev._n 18._o 21_o &c_n &c_n neither_o the_o dragon_n or_o antichrist_n be_v magistrate_n or_o magistracy_n as_o god_n ordinance_n as_o for_o those_o inference_n or_o argument_n draw_v from_o paul_n practice_n and_o from_o peter_n and_o paul_n write_n to_o saint_n or_o church_n i_o have_v give_v my_o understanding_n in_o they_o and_o so_o pass_v they_o but_o to_o what_o i_o have_v say_v i_o humble_o crave_v leave_v to_o offer_v my_o thought_n in_o these_o particular_n follow_v particu_n 1_o first_o i_o see_v it_o not_o clear_o prove_v that_o the_o pagan_a roman_a caesar_n be_v signify_v by_o the_o dragon_n rev._n 12._o 3_o 4_o etc._n etc._n but_o that_o the_o dragon_n may_v rather_o represent_v antichrist_n for_o two_o reason_n first_o the_o man_n of_o sin_n antichrist_n sit_v in_o the_o temple_n of_o god_n 1_o thes_n 2._o 4._o and_o this_o dragon_n appear_v in_o heaven_n rev._n 12._o 3._o viz._n in_o the_o visible_a church_n which_o the_o pagan_a caesar_n do_v not_o second_o this_o dragon_n drive_v the_o woman_n into_o the_o wilderness_n 1260_o day_n the_o same_o time_n with_o the_o witness_n prophesy_v in_o sackcloth_n 5_o rev_n 12_o 6._o and_o 11._o 2_o 3._o &_o 13._o 5_o and_o one_o state_n of_o time_n with_o antichrist_n reign_v therefore_o the_o dragon_n must_v signify_v antichrist_n or_o the_o antichristian_a state_n and_o not_o the_o pagan_a roman_n state_n for_o if_o we_o take_v the_o dragon_n for_o the_o pagan_a empire_n than_o the_o pagan_a persecution_n be_v include_v in_o the_o antichristian_a persecution_n of_o 1260_o day_n or_o else_o john_n only_a hint_n the_o pagan_a persecution_n and_o then_o fall_v into_o and_o state_n the_o antichristian_a persecution_n 1260_o day_n particu_n 2_o second_o it_o be_v not_o clear_a that_o the_o beast_n arise_v out_o of_o the_o sea_n rev._n 13._o 1_o etc._n etc._n and_o daniel_n four_o beast_n be_v one_o beast_n and_o 18._o rev._n 13._o 1._o dan._n 7._o 7._o 2_o thes_n 2_o 7._o rev._n 17_o 18._o both_o represent_v the_o roman_a empire_n i_o humble_o judge_v that_o upon_o the_o fall_n of_o daniel_n four_o beast_n the_o beast_n with_o ten_o horn_n crown_v then_o arise_v over_o who_o the_o woman_n reign_v note_v and_o so_o be_v the_o

son_n sovereignty_n paul_n infer_v that_o the_o pagan_a empire_n cease_v or_o be_v take_v away_o when_o antichrist_n arise_v and_o every_o of_o the_o ten_o horn_n or_o kingdom_n as_o they_o put_v on_o crown_n they_o become_v entire_a and_o distinct_a monarchy_n so_o daniel_n make_v the_o little_a horn_n 8._o dan._n 7._o 8._o antichrist_n to_o be_v
