What were John Locke's ideas about gorvernment different from the theory of the divine right of monarchs?

He supported the principle of popular sovereignity. He claimed that the source of all political powershould be the people: the legitimacy of the state is created and maintained by the will and consent of its people. The monarchs do not have a divine right to rule, they get their power from the people and consequeently should rule for the good of the people.
