    The answer is James I believed that he owed his authority to God-given right, that the law (s) of, and in, "His" Kingdom were only an extension of his royal prerogative, and that Parliament was in essence a lower Court to him, its laws and opinions always subject to his oversight and review; and that he was free to revise or overrule them completely whenever he wished. In the areas Royal administration and governmental policy, the King saw no role for Parliament or to be informally bound by its opinions at all.
