At the very commencement of the yet infant Church, blessed Peter, Prince of the Apostles, instructing the faithful, exhorted them in these words : Be ye subject to every human creature for God's sake, whether it be to the King as excelling, or to governors as sent by him for the punishment of evil-doers, and for the praise of the good: for so is the will of God, that by doing well you may silence the ignorance of foolish men. The Catholic Church being directed by these precepts, the most renown...ed champions of the Christian name replied to the Gentiles, when raging against them, as enemies of the Empire, with furious hatred : we are constantly praying (Tertullian in Apologet. , chap, xxx) that all the Emperors may enjoy long life, quiet gov- ernment, a loyal household, a brave army, a faithful Senate, an honest people, and general tranquility. The Bishops of Rome, successors of Peter, have not ceased to inculcate this doctrine, especially to missionaries, lest any ill will should be excited against the professors of the Catholic faith in the minds of those who are enemies of the Christian name.
