Paragraph

 1 3 |        is created immediately by God, and, far surpassing the
 2 6 |      that the infinitely perfect God, although supremely free,
 3 6 |      perfection of liberty, then God, Jesus Christ, and the angels
 4 8 |        bur the eternal reason of God, the Creator and Ruler of
 5 8 |     action and restraint of evil God has vouchsafed to give special
 6 10|          that the eternal law of God is the sole standard and
 7 11|      other than the authority of God, commanding good and forbidding
 8 11|      this most just authority of God over men diminishing, or
 9 11|     human liberty must aspire is God.~
10 12|           bringing man nearer to God, they make him at once the
11 13|        men. Lawful power is from God, "and whosoever resisteth
12 13|       resisteth the ordinance of God' ;6 wherefore, obedience
13 13|          or to some ordinance of God, obedience is unlawful,
14 13|         we become disobedient to God. Thus, an effectual barrier
15 15|     obedience to the commands of God, and substitutes a boundless
16 15|    society, on the one hand, and God the Creator and consequently
17 16|        to tyranny. The empire of God over man and civil society
18 17|      being is bound by no law of God except such as He makes
19 17|        man is under the power of God, and tends toward Him as
20 17|         the nature and extent of God's rights and its own duties,
21 17|      authority and providence of God. Man must, therefore, take
22 17|          one of those laws which God, in His infinite wisdom
23 17|         embody the government of God, who graciously guides and
24 17|          right reason itself-let God be dutifully and obediently
25 18|          affairs the commands of God may be passed over, and
26 18|         according to the laws of God. For, since God is the source
27 18|          laws of God. For, since God is the source of all goodness
28 18|         than the laws which have God for their author; and, therefore,
29 18|       the most wise ordinance of God, there must necessarily
30 20|          commands him to worship God with devotion and piety.
31 20|         are ever in the power of God, are ever guided by His
32 20|       those things which lead to God as man's supreme and ultimate
33 20|          practice that one which God enjoins, and which men can
34 21|       should offer any homage to God, or should desire any public
35 21|       State has no duties toward God, or that such duties, if
36 21|         but that, by the will of God, men are united in civil
37 21|         which it renders to man. God it is who has made man for
38 21|         society must acknowledge God as its Founder and Parent,
39 22|          all power directly from God Himself, with grave authority
40 22|           as to the ministers of God; and it binds them to their
41 23|          matter of opinion which God leaves to man's free discussion,
42 26|     treasure of the truths which God Himself has taught us. By
43 26|     things have been revealed by God; that the onlybegotten Son
44 26|          the onlybegotten Son of God was made flesh, to bear
45 26|       best and surest teacher is God, the Source and Principle
46 26|      they shall all be taught of God."8~
47 27|        the teaching of morality, God Himself made the Church
48 27|      mission entrusted to her by God; unconquered by the difficulties
49 28|      believe on the authority of God. The Church, truly, to our
50 30|           as he chooses, worship God or not, it is sufficiently
51 30|     State may follow the will of God and, from a consciousness
52 30|    liberty worthy of the sons of God, which nobly maintains the
53 30|        and most just dominion of God over man, and to the chief
54 30|       supreme duty of man toward God. It has nothing in common
55 30| accordance with the authority of God, and is within the measure
56 30|        variance with the will of God, there is a wide departure
57 31|      altogether independently of God, the liberty of which We
58 33|    preserving some greater good. God Himself in His providence,
59 33|         must endeavor to imitate God, who, as St. Thomas teaches,
60 34|          duty assigned to her by God of providing for the eternal
61 36|        and everenduring power of God; and that, as a consequence,
62 36|        consists in submission to God and in subjection to His
63 36|   existence of this authority in God, or to refuse to submit
64 36|        obedience which is due to God or to those who share the
65 37|         the supreme authority to God, and to cast off all obedience
66 38|        the duty of submitting to God, the Creator and Ruler of
67 38|     revealed by the authority of God; or who at least impudently
68 40|         to subject the Church of God to the empire and sway of
69 41|      ever be maintained; and, as God has intrusted these great
70 42|    lawful to refuse obedience to God, and there would be no restraint
71 47|          eyes in supplication to God, and earnestly beseech Him
