Now is it clear made that we cannot resist this temporal power in no wise by vi•lenc•• but if we have wrong either we must do the thing that is commanded us, or else fly, but if any thing be commanded us that is against 1the word of God whereby our faith is hurt, that we should not do in any wise: but rather suffer per secution and also death. But against this power goeth not our article, for it commandeth nothing as concerning the conscience, but all only as concerning the ordering of worldly things, and therefore, it ministereth a temporal pain over the body only and therewith is content. Wherefore we will now speak of the other power which men call spiritual.
