Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Exhortation Concerning Good Order, and Obedience to Rulers and Magistrates For this forenamed state and order, as it is written of God in the Book of the Proverbs, Through me hings do reign, through me counsellors make just laws, through me do princes bear rule, and all judges of the earth execute judgment I am loving to them that love me. Prov. Viii. Here let us mark well, and re member, that the high power and authority of kings, with their making of laws, judgments, and offices, are the ordinances, not of man, but of God; and therefore is this word (through me) so many times repeated. Here is also well to be considered and remembered, that this good order is appointed by God's wisdom, favour, and love, especially for them that love God; and therefore he saith, I love them that love me. Also in the Book of wisdom we may evidently learn, that a king's power, authority, and strength is a great benefit of God; given of his great mercy, to the comfort of our great misery. Wisd. Vi. For thus we read there spoken to kings, Hear, O ye kings, and understand. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
