“God doth set men over us in such sort with power that he keepeth still his own authority safe and sound. Therefore, we must obey rulers so far, that the commandment of God be not broken...Yea, man is nothing else but an instrument of God....But so soon as rulers do lead us away from the obedience of God, because they strive against God with sacrilegious boldness, their pride must be abated, that God may be above all in authority.”
