Read the speech James I made to Parliament in 1609.

The state of monarchy is the supremest thing upon earth, for kings are not only God's lieutenants upon earth and sit upon God's throne, but even by God himself they are called gods. . . .

[Y]ou do not meddle with the main points of government; that is my craft . . . to meddle with that were to lessen me.What argument was the king making?

Kings should not believe in God, for they are gods themselves.
Kings are God’s representatives on Earth, and they should not be challenged.
Kings should agree that it is Parliament’s job to run the government.
Kings need to be more respectful of Parliament.
