The divine right of church-government and excommunication

Yea, and if there be murdering of a weak brother in the fact, it cannot come under the compass of the matter of an humane law, and the Scandal maketh it no obedience to men, but disobedience to God. 4. You retort bravely, but Popishly, the argument back upon us; But we bring our argument from the law of Nature (Thou shalt not murder, nor scandalize) and we bring it not so much against the obedience to the Commandment of Superiors, as against the law and Commandment of Superiors, and this Argument is against the Ceremonies, as if they had not been commanded, and as they were before the Assembly of Perth, and therefore the consideration of a lawful Commandment to take away the scandal, is not to any purpose. And so 5. I may invite Papists, Jesuits, and all the Patrons of the Pope, to thank you, and kiss your pen, for these words we say that the lawful Commandment of Superiors (of Prelates commanding things indifferent) may make that scandal of our weak brethren not to be imputed unto us, which otherwise would be imputed unto us, as a matter of our guiltiness. What ever (my brethren) may be imputed to you otherwise, & before the law of Perth Assembly was made, as the matter of your guiltiness, was your sin, for nothing can be imputed to Men or Angels, as guiltiness, but fin. But if the Commandments of Prelates may make that not to be imputed to you, which otherwise and before, or without that law of Superiors, would have been imputed as the matter of your guiltiness, then the law of Superiors and Prelates may make that, which without that law, would have been sin, to be no sin at all. I know no more said by ^cBellarmine of the Universal Prelate of the world, but that he can make sin to be no sin, and no sin to be sin. And ^dthat the Pope cannot command virtue as vice, and vice as virtue, for if he should do so, the Church should be obliged to believe virtue to be vice, and vice to be virtue. But much good do it you, Masters of Arts.

Yea, and if there be murthering of a weake brother in the fact, it cannot come under the compasse of the matter of an humane law, and the Scandall maketh it no obedience to men, but disobedience to God. 4. You retort bravely, but Popishly, the argument back upon us; But we bring our argument from the law of Nature (Thou shalt not murther, nor scandalize) and we bring it not so much against the obedience to the Commandement of Superiours, as against the law and Commandement of Superiours, and this Argument is against the Ceremonies, as if they had not been commanded, and as they were before the Assembly of Pearth, and therefore the consideration of a lawfull Commandement to take away the scandall, is not to any purpose. And so 5. I may invite Papists, Jesuites, and all the Patrons of the Pope, to thanke you, and kisse your pen, for these words we say that the lawfull Commandement of Superiours (of Prelates commanding things indifferent) may make that scandall of our weake brethren not to be imputed unto us, which otherwise would be imputed unto us, as a matter of our guiltiness. What ever (my brethren) may be imputed to you otherwise, & before the law of Pearth Assemblie was made, as the matter of your guiltiness, was your sinne, for nothing can be imputed to Men or Angels, as guiltiness, but fin.
