This audio file contains the second part of Chapter 25.
How the fathers deny the sword is to be used against men for their conscience.
Church censures and rebukes for conscience infer most of all the absurdities the Libertines impute to us.
That there was an immediate response of God's oracle telling who was the false teacher, is an unwarranted forgery of the Libertines.
If heresy be innocence, seducing heretics ought to be praised and rewarded.
The magistrate as magistrate according to prophecies in the Old Testament is to punish seducers.
What Mr. Williams giveth to the magistrate in religion is not sufficient.
Christian kings are no more nurse-fathers, Isaiah 49:23, to the true churches of Christ, than to the synagogue of Antichrist, according to the way of Libertines.
The mind of divers famous authors touching the parable of the tares.
The parable of the tares considered.
Mr. Williams holdeth that the prince owes protection to all idolatrous and bloody churches, if they be his subjects.
How the magistrate is to judge of heresy.
A magistrate and a Christian magistrate are to be differenced, nor can or ought, all magistrates to judge of, or punish all heretics.
Whether peace of civil societies be sure, where there is toleration of all religions.
Peace is commanded in the New Testament, no word of toleration of divers religions, nor precept, promise, or practice therefore,
No ground for abolishing of judicial laws touching that point.
Libertines give us heathenish not Christian peace under many religions.
