A86678 The divine right of government: [brace] 1. naturall, and 2. politique. More particularly of monarchie; the onely legitimate and natural spece of politique government. VVherein the phansyed state-principles supereminencing salutem populi above the Kings honour: and legitimating the erection of polarchies, the popular elections of kings and magistrates, and the authoritative and compulsive establishment of a national conformity in evangelical and Christian dutyes, rites, and ceremonies, are manifested to be groundlesse absurdities both in policy and divinity. / By Mich: Hudson.

the_o compliment_n of_o this_o new_a evangelical_n law_n whereupon_o this_o new_a covenant_n of_o grace_n be_v ground_v and_o these_o evangelicall_n work_n be_v as_o necessary_a to_o salvation_n as_o either_o faith_n or_o hope_n from_o which_o it_o can_v possible_o be_v separate_v as_o be_v evident_a in_o the_o convert_a thief_n for_o i_o be_o sure_a the_o salvation_n of_o that_o thief_n be_v

reason_n of_o the_o inseparable_a connexion_n of_o these_o three_o evangelicall_n grace_n the_o holy_a ghost_n do_v sometime_o attribute_v salvation_n to_o one_o of_o they_o alone_o but_o that_o be_v
