by_o he_o his_o manifest_a declension_n of_o the_o divine_a positive_a law_n and_o imposure_n of_o humane_a law_n in_o opposition_n to_o they_o censure_v the_o law_n of_o nature_n command_v obedience_n to_o the_o positive_a law_n of_o god_n the_o pretension_n of_o all_o nation_n to_o divine_a institution_n observe_v and_o here_o i_o think_v to_o have_v knock_v off_o with_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o the_o first_o quaerie_n but_o as_o i_o say_v before_o he_o make_v two_o inquiry_n the_o first_o concern_v the_o assurance_n of_o these_o revelation_n i_o have_v speak_v to_o that_o the_o second_o be_v how_v a_o man_n can_v be_v bind_v to_o obey_v the_o law_n so_o reveal_v this_o he_o say_v be_v not_o so_o hard_a for_o if_o the_o law_n declare_v be_v not_o against_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n which_o be_v undoubted_o god_n law_n and_o he_o undertake_v to_o obey_v it_o he_o be_v bind_v by_o his_o own_o act_n thus_o far_o mr._n hobbs_n but_o indeed_o he_o utter_v in_o my_o judgement_n a_o most_o obscure_a doctrine_n ●r_o if_o clear_a he_o speak_v very_o weak_o it_o be_v obscure_a for_o although_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n do_v oblige_v yet_o it_o be_v not_o apparent_a to_o every_o man_n what_o this_o law_n of_o nature_n be_v no_o not_o to_o learned_a man_n for_o in_o many_o case_n it_o be_v dispute_v whether_o such_o or_o such_o action_n be_v according_a to_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n or_o no_o and_o therefore_o although_o the_o major_a proposition_n be_v unquestionable_o true_a that_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n be_v institute_v by_o god_n yet_o the_o assume_v of_o a_o minor_a to_o it_o this_o be_v the_o law_n of_o nature_n may_v be_v full_a of_o dispute_n and_o from_o thence_o it_o will_v be_v hard_a to_o conclude_v again_o consider_v that_o when_o the_o question_n be_v put_v in_o the_o former_a page_n it_o be_v concern_v the_o obedience_n to_o the_o reveal_v law_n of_o god_n how_o a_o man_n may_v be_v bind_v to_o obey_v they_o of_o which_o he_o affirm_v that_o we_o can_v have_v no_o assurance_n and_o that_o i_o have_v immediate_o before_o refute_v but_o now_o his_o whole_a discourse_n run_v upon_o man_n obedience_n to_o humane_a law_n thus_o the_o notion_n and_o conceit_n shuffle_v and_o change_v a_o reader_n be_v distract_v and_o while_o he_o find_v something_o seem_o prove_v he_o think_v the_o undertake_v proposition_n be_v clear_a for_o where_o have_v he_o satisfy_v yea_o but_o seem_o this_o question_n how_o a_o man_n can_v be_v bind_v to_o obey_v the_o revelation_n but_o say_v he_o if_o he_o undertake_v to_o obey_v a_o law_n which_o be_v not_o against_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n he_o be_v bind_v by_o his_o own_o act._n that_o be_v that_o act_n by_o which_o he_o say_v rather_o than_o think_v he_o institute_v a_o supreme_a and_o that_o act_n only_o reflect_v upon_o humane_a law_n establish_v by_o the_o supreme_a which_o he_o institute_v but_o i_o do_v not_o find_v this_o express_v there_o in_o that_o latitude_n he_o now_o form_n it_o but_o rather_o i_o think_v that_o he_o will_v have_v suppose_v that_o the_o supreme_a shall_v be_v obey_v in_o such_o thing_n as_o cross_v not_o the_o law_n of_o god_n whatsoever_o either_o natural_a or_o positive_a but_o it_o seem_v now_o he_o must_v be_v obey_v in_o all_o which_o be_v not_o against_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n only_o he_o will_v have_v the_o scripture_n and_o positive_a law_n lay_v aside_o by_o this_o if_o a_o king_n shall_v command_v we_o not_o to_o be_v baptize_v not_o to_o receive_v the_o communion_n or_o like_o darius_n not_o to_o pray_v to_o god_n for_o a_o certain_a time_n not_o to_o repent_v &c._n &c._n which_o be_v not_o act_n of_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n but_o positive_a law_n we_o shall_v not_o do_v they_o which_o must_v needs_o be_v most_o odious_a to_o any_o christian_a man_n but_o indeed_o have_v not_o mr._n hobbs_n distinguish_v these_o two_o the_o positive_a and_o natural_a law_n of_o god_n before_o in_o the_o former_a page_n and_o raise_v these_o doubt_n to_o disgrace_v the_o positive_a law_n of_o god_n i_o can_v have_v answer_v that_o there_o be_v no_o law_n more_o natural_a than_o that_o we_o shall_v obey_v the_o positive_a law_n of_o god_n for_o he_o be_v the_o supreme_a power_n must_v needs_o have_v that_o authority_n to_o make_v law_n for_o the_o government_n of_o man_n and_o this_o be_v universal_o receive_v all_o nation_n in_o the_o world_n pretend_v to_o have_v divine_a law_n for_o their_o direction_n i_o mean_v positive_a divine_a law_n only_a mr._n hobbs_n deny_v it_o clear_o in_o this_o

you_o please_v for_o obedience_n to_o divine_a or_o humane_a law_n he_o can_v be_v bind_v to_o obey_v none_o when_o he_o have_v no_o belief_n for_o he_o can_v have_v a_o obligation_n to_o divine_a

the_o operation_n of_o god_n they_o therefore_o be_v not_o subject_a to_o command_n as_o charity_n and_o all_o the_o restraint_n of_o exorbitant_a lust_n be_v subject_a to_o his_o operation_n be_v they_o not_o therefore_o subject_a to_o command_n this_o be_v a_o pitiful_a inference_n but_o then_o consider_v further_o that_o faith_n and_o the_o cogitation_n of_o man_n be_v command_v by_o god_n that_o faith_n be_v command_v first_o heb._n 11.6_o without_o faith_n it_o be_v impossible_a to_o please_v god_n for_o he_o that_o come_v to_o god_n must_v believe_v that_o he_o be_v and_o that_o he_o

these_o may_v reply_v that_o our_o saviour_n have_v institute_v a_o new_a law_n mat._n 5.33_o where_o in_o the_o 34_o verse_n he_o say_v but_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o swear_v not_o at_o all_o it_o be_v

diverse_a time_n swear_v yea_o in_o his_o epistle_n which_o be_v a_o great_a fault_n than_o in_o ordinary_a discourse_n because_o it_o be_v do_v upon_o consideration_n nay_o in_o those_o epistle_n which_o he_o be_v direct_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o write_v for_o the_o good_a of_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n so_o you_o may_v observe_v rom_n 1.9_o god_n be_v my_o witness_n so_o likewise_o 2._o cor._n 1.23_o i_o call_v god_n for_o record_n upon_o my_o soul_n phil_n 1.8_o god_n be_v my_o record_n and_o now_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a for_o any_o man_n to_o think_v that_o so_o virtuous_a

lie_v in_o these_o two_o phrase_n the_o negative_a in_o the_o 34_o verse_n and_o the_o affirmative_a in_o the_o 37_o verse_n first_o for_o the_o negative_a swear_v not_o at_o all_o to_o apprehend_v this_o consider_v that_o these_o universal_a as_o also_o indefinite_a term_n be_v with_o much_o caution_n to_o be_v extend_v and_o to_o be_v expound_v in_o scripture_n according_a to_o that_o

whosoever_o kill_v shall_v be_v in_o danger_n of_o the_o judgement_n and_o yet_o sure_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o a_o executioner_n to_o hang_v according_a to_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n and_o so_o to_o kill_v any_o man_n who_o be_v condemn_v when_o he_o have_v receive_v a_o command_n to_o do_v it_o so_o likewise_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o a_o soldier_n in_o defence_n of_o his_o country_n and_o

all_o that_o ever_o come_v before_o i_o be_v thief_n and_o robber_n here_o be_v as_o full_a and_o large_a word_n as_o possible_o can_v be_v but_o a_o man_n may_v say_v what_o be_v the_o patriarch_n
