A62874	Tombes, John, 1603?-1676.	A serious consideration of the oath of the Kings supremacy wherein these six propositions are asserted. 1. That some swearing is lawful. 2. That some promissory oaths are lawful. 3. That a promissory oath of allegiance and due obedience to a king is lawful. 4. That the King in his realm, is the onely supreme governour over all persons. 5. That the king is the governour of the realm, as well in all spiritual or ecclesiastical things, or causes, as temporal. 6. That the jurisdictions, priviledges, preeminences, and authorities in that oath, may be assisted and defended. By John Tombes B.D.	1660.0		.xml	application/xml	10829	482	73	These are express examples of swearing Allegiance to Kings , which is consonant to what our Lord Christ teacheth , that we should render to Caesar the things that are Caesars , as to God the things that are Gods , Matth. Brethren , let every man wherein he is called therein abide with God , that is , his Christian calling doth not bind him to leave the state and condition of life in which he was , nor diminish his Authority which he had when he was called to be a Christian , as not consisting with Christianity ; so is it true concerning Kings and other Magistrates , they have greater obligation to God , and the Lord Christ , no less Authority and power as Kings by their Christianity : but they may abide in their Office , and exercise the lawful Authority they had before .	cache/A62874.xml	txt/A62874.txt
