Rise of Separatists
The Separatists believed that Canterbury was so
defiled by Rome as to be a false Church the
Puritans believed that, while the evidence showed
the Church of England to be inadequately
reformed, it was sufficiently reformed for it to
be, or at least for it to become, a true Church.

That the magistrate is not by virtue of his

conscience, to force or compel men to this or
that form of religion, or doctrine but to leave
Christian religion free, to every mans
conscience, and to handle only civil
transgressions., injuries and wrongs of man
against man, in murder, adultery, theft, etc.,
for Christ only is the king, and lawgiver of the
church and conscience

A Short Declaration of the Mistery of Iniquity
(1612)
the king is a mortal man, and not God therefore
hath not power over ye immortal souls of his
subjects, to make laws and ordinances for them,
and to set spiritual lords over them. If the
king have authority to make spiritual lords and
laws, then he is immortal God, and not a mortal
man.
