Dr. Fern, But we see your party making use of those examples which the Papists being for deposing of Kings, as of Saul, Uzziah, and Athaliah.
1The Papists bring these examples of Uzziah, Atholiah, &c. to show that the High priests did, and so the Pope now may depose Princes, proving that the Pope is above Princes. We say with Chrysostom and others, that every soul, even Priests as they and you call them, are to be subject to higher Powers, That that lies in the power of no Priest to dispose Princes.
