two_o way_n 1._o by_o a_o institution_n of_o god_n 2._o by_o the_o overrule_a power_n of_o a_o man_n misinform_a conscience_n and_o although_o by_o virtue_n of_o a_o institution_n divine_a worship_n be_v acceptable_a to_o god_n by_o christ_n yet_o conscience_n will_v make_v that_o a_o man_n shall_v have_v but_o little_a ease_n if_o such_o rule_n and_o dictate_v as_o it_o impose_v be_v not_o observe_v by_o he_o this_o be_v my_o answer_n upon_o a_o supposition_n that_o the_o seventh-day-sabbath_n be_v in_o this_o text_n intend_v and_o the_o answer_n i_o think_v stand_v firm_a and_o good_a also_o there_o remain_v notwithstanding_o this_o objection_n no_o divine_a sanction_n in_o or_o upon_o the_o old_a seventh-day-sabbath_n some_o indeed_o will_v urge_v that_o christ_n here_o mean_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n which_o here_o he_o put_v under_o the_o term_n of_o sabbath_n but_o this_o be_v foreign_a to_o i_o so_o i_o wave_v it_o till_o i_o receive_v more_o satisfaction_n in_o the_o thing_n quest._n but_o if_o indeed_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v the_o new_a christian_a sabbath_n why_o be_v there_o no_o more_o speak_v of_o its_o iustitution_n in_o the_o testament_n of_o christ_n answ._n no_o more_o what_o need_n be_v there_o of_o more_o than_o enough_o yea_o there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n find_v in_o the_o testament_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n to_o prove_v its_o authority_n divine_a 1._o for_o we_o have_v show_v from_o sundry_a scripture_n that_o from_o the_o very_a day_n our_o lord_n do_v rise_v from_o the_o dead_a the_o church_n at_o jerusalem_n in_o which_o the_o twelve_o apostle_n be_v do_v meet_v together_o on_o that_o day_n and_o have_v the_o lord_n himself_o for_o their_o preacher_n while_o they_o be_v auditor_n and_o thus_o the_o day_n begin_v 2._o we_o have_v show_v that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n the_o third_z person_n in_o the_o trinity_n do_v second_o this_o of_o christ_n in_o come_v down_o from_o heaven_n upon_o this_o day_n to_o manage_v the_o apostle_n in_o their_o preach_n and_o in_o that_o very_a day_n so_o manage_v they_o in_o that_o work_n that_o by_o his_o help_n they_o then_o do_v bring_v three_o thousand_o soul_n to_o god_n 3._o we_o have_v show_v also_o that_o after_o this_o the_o gentile-churche_n do_v solemnize_v this_o day_n for_o holy_a worship_n and_o that_o they_o have_v from_o paul_n both_o countenance_n and_o order_n so_o to_o do_v and_o now_o i_o will_v add_v that_o more_o need_v not_o be_v speak_v for_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o first_o church_n with_o their_o lord_n in_o the_o head_n of_o they_o to_o manage_v they_o in_o that_o practice_n be_v as_o good_a as_o many_o command_n what_o then_o shall_v we_o say_v when_o we_o see_v a_o first_o practice_n turn_v into_o holy_a custom_n i_o say_v moreover_o that_o though_o a_o seventh-day-sabbath_n be_v not_o natural_a to_o man_n as_o man_n yet_o our_o christian_a holy_a day_n be_v natural_a to_o we_o as_o saint_n if_o our_o conscience_n be_v not_o clog_v before_o with_o some_o old_a fable_n or_o jewish_a custom_n but_o if_o a_o old_a religion_n shall_v get_v footing_n and_o root_n in_o we_o though_o the_o ground_n thereof_o be_v vanish_v away_o yet_o the_o man_n concern_v will_v be_v hard_o put_v to_o it_o shall_v he_o be_v save_v to_o get_v clear_a of_o his_o cloud_n and_o devote_v himself_o to_o that_o service_n of_o god_n which_o be_v of_o his_o own_o prescribe_v luther_n himself_o though_o he_o see_v many_o thing_n be_v without_o ground_n which_o he_o have_v receive_v for_o truth_n have_v yet_o work_v hard_a enough_o as_o himself_o intimate_v to_o get_v his_o conscience_n clear_a from_o all_o those_o root_n and_o string_n of_o inbred_a error_n but_o i_o say_v to_o a_o untainted_a and_o well-bred_a christian_a we_o have_v good_a measure_n shake_v together_o and_o run_v over_o for_o our_o christian_a lord_n day_n and_o i_o say_v again_o that_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n and_o the_o spirit_n of_o such_o a_o christian_a suit_n one_o another_o as_o nature_n suit_v nature_n for_o there_o be_v as_o it_o be_v a_o natural_a instinct_n in_o christian_n as_o such_o when_o they_o understand_v what_o in_o a_o first_o day_n be_v bring_v forth_o to_o fall_v in_o therewith_o to_o keep_v it_o holy_a to_o their_o lord_n 1._o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n why_o it_o be_v the_o day_n of_o our_o life_n after_o two_o day_n he_o will_v revive_v we_o and_o in_o the_o three_o day_n we_o shall_v live_v in_o his_o sight_n after_o two_o day_n there_o be_v the_o jew_n

shall_v we_o not_o mark_v it_o when_o so_o many_o memorable_a thing_n be_v do_v on_o it_o for_o and_o lo_o and_o in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n let_v saint_n be_v ashamed_a to_o think_v that_o such_o a_o day_n shall_v be_v look_v over_o or_o count_v common_a when_o tempt_v to_o it_o by_o satan_n when_o keep_v to_o religious_a service_n of_o old_a and_o when_o beautifle_v with_o so_o many_o

it_o be_v but_o why_o i_o say_v be_v this_o day_n on_o which_o our_o lord_n rise_v from_o the_o dead_a nominate_v as_o it_o be_v why_o be_v it_o not_o sufficient_a to_o say_v he_o rise_v again_o or_o be_z rose_z again_o the_o three_o day_n without_o a_o specification_n of_o the_o very_a name_n of_o the_o day_n for_o as_o be_v say_v afore_o christ_n appear_v to_o his_o disciple_n after_o his_o resurrection_n on_o other_o day_n also_o yea_o and_o thereon_o do_v miracle_n too_o why_o then_o do_v not_o these_o day_n live_v why_o be_v their_o name_n for_o all_o that_o blot_v out_o and_o this_o day_n only_o keep_v alive_a in_o the_o church_n the_o day_n on_o which_o christ_n be_v bear_v of_o a_o virgin_n the_o day_n of_o his_o circumcision_n the_o day_n of_o his_o baptism_n and_o transfiguration_n be_v not_o by_o their_o name_n commit_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o holy_a writ_n to_o be_v keep_v alive_a in_o the_o world_n nor_o yet_o such_o day_n in_o which_o he_o do_v many_o great_a and_o wonderful_a thing_n but_o this_o day_n this_o day_n be_v still_o nominate_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v the_o day_n i_o say_v why_o be_v thing_n thus_o leave_v with_o we_o but_o because_o we_o as_o saint_n of_o old_a shall_v gather_v and_o separate_v what_o be_v of_o divine_a authority_n from_o the_o rest_n for_o in_o that_o this_o day_n be_v so_o often_o nominate_v while_o all_o other_o day_n lie_v dead_a in_o their_o grave_n it_o be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o god_n shall_v say_v remember_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n to_o keep_v it_o holy_a to_o the_o lord_n your_o god_n and_o set_v this_o aside_o and_o i_o know_v not_o what_o reason_n can_v be_v render_v or_o what_o prophecy_n shall_v be_v fulfil_v by_o the_o bare_a name_n of_o the_o day_n when_o god_n of_o old_a do_v sanctify_v for_o the_o use_n of_o his_o church_n a_o day_n as_o he_o do_v many_o he_o always_o call_v they_o either_o by_o the_o name_n of_o the_o day_n of_o the_o month_n or_o of_o the_o week_n or_o by_o some_o other_o signal_n by_o which_o they_o may_v be_v certain_o know_v why_o shall_v it_o not_o then_o be_v conclude_v that_o for_o this_o very_a reason_n the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v thus_o often_o nominate_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o the_o testament_n of_o christ_n moreover_o he_o that_o take_v away_o the_o first_o day_n as_o to_o this_o service_n leave_v we_o now_o no_o day_n as_o sanctify_v of_o god_n for_o his_o solemn_a worship_n to_o be_v by_o his_o church_n perform_v in_o as_o for_o the_o seventh-day-sabbath_n that_o as_o we_o see_v be_v go_v to_o its_o grave_n with_o the_o sign_n and_o shadow_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n yea_o and_o have_v such_o a_o dash_n leave_v upon_o it_o by_o apostolical_a authority_n that_o it_o be_v enough_o to_o make_v a_o christian_a fly_n from_o it_o for_o ever_o 2_o cor._n 3._o now_o i_o say_v since_o that_o be_v remove_v by_o god_n if_o we_o shall_v suffer_v the_o first_o day_n also_o to_o be_v take_v away_o by_o man_n what_o day_n that_o have_v a_o divine_a stamp_n upon_o it_o will_v be_v leave_v for_o we_o to_o worship_n god_n in_o alas_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v the_o christian_n market-day_n that_o which_o they_o so_o solemn_o trade_n in_o for_o sole_a provision_n for_o all_o the_o week_n follow_v this_o be_v the_o day_n that_o they_o gather_v manna_n in_o to_o be_v sure_a the_o seventh-day-sabbath_n be_v not_o that_o for_o of_o old_a the_o people_n of_o god_n can_v never_o find_v manna_n on_o that_o day_n on_o the_o seven_o day_n say_v moses_n which_o be_v the_o sabbath_n in_o it_o there_o shall_v be_v none_o exod._n 16._o 26._o any_o day_n of_o the_o week_n manna_n can_v be_v find_v but_o on_o that_o day_n it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v

gather_v manna_n in_o but_o more_o of_o this_o anon_o nor_o will_v it_o out_o of_o my_o mind_n but_o that_o it_o be_v a_o very_a high_a piece_n of_o ingratitude_n and_o of_o uncomely_a behaviour_n to_o deny_v the_o son_n of_o god_n his_o day_n the_o lord_n day_n the_o day_n that_o he_o have_v make_v and_o as_o we_o have_v show_v already_o this_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v it_o yea_o and_o a_o great_a piece_n of_o unmannerliness_n be_v it_o too_o for_o any_o notwithstanding_o the_o old_a seven_o day_n be_v so_o degrade_v as_o it_o be_v to_o attempt_v to_o impose_v it_o on_o the_o

cor._n 3._o yet_o again_o the_o apostle_n finites_n the_o teacher_n of_o the_o law_n upon_o the_o mouth_n say_v they_o understand_v neither_o what_o they_o say_v nor_o whereof_o they_o affirm_v 1_o

seventh-day-sabbath_n be_v as_o you_o say_v to_o be_v lay_v aside_o by_o the_o church_n of_o the_o gentile_n why_o do_v christ_n say_v to_o he_o pray_v that_o your_o flight_n be_v not_o in_o the_o

of_o it_o abide_v in_o force_n after_o christ_n be_v ascend_v into_o heaven_n answ._n i_o say_v first_o these_o word_n be_v speak_v to_o the_o jewish_a christian_n not_o to_o the_o gentile-churche_n and_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o first_o hint_n you_o will_v see_v clear_a afterward_o the_o jew_n have_v several_a sabbath_n as_o their_o seventh-day-sabbath_n their_o monthly_a sabbath_n their_o sabbath_n of_o year_n and_o their_o jubilee_n levit._n 25._o now_o if_o he_o mean_v their_o ordinary_a sabbath_n or_o that_o call_v the_o seventh-day-sabbath_n why_o do_v he_o join_v the_o winter_n thereto_o for_o in_o that_o he_o join_v the_o winter_n with_o that_o sabbath_n that_o he_o exhort_v they_o to_o pray_v their_o flight_n may_v not_o be_v in_o it_o shall_v seem_v that_o the_o mean_v rather_o their_o sabbath_n of_o year_n or_o their_o jubilee_n which_o do_v better_o answer_v one_o to_o another_o than_o one_o day_n and_o a_o winter_n can_v and_o i_o say_v again_o that_o christ_n shall_v suppose_v that_o their_o flight_n shall_v or_o may_v last_v some_o considerable_a part_n of_o a_o winter_n and_o yet_o that_o then_o they_o shall_v have_v their_o rest_n on_o those_o seventh-day-sabbaths_a be_v a_o little_a beside_o my_o reason_n if_o it_o be_v consider_v again_o that_o the_o gentile_n before_o who_o they_o be_v then_o to_o fly_v be_v enemy_n to_o their_o sabbath_n and_o consequent_o will_v take_v opportunity_n at_o their_o sabbath_n to_o afflict_v they_o so_o much_o the_o more_o wherefore_o i_o will_v that_o they_o who_o plead_v for_o a_o continuation_n of_o the_o seventh-day-sabbath_n from_o this_o text_n will_v both_o better_o consider_v lt_v and_o the_o incoherence_n that_o seem_v to_o be_v betwixt_o such_o a_o sabbath_n and_o a_o winter_n but_o again_o be_v it_o grant_v that_o it_o be_v the_o seventh-day-sabbath_n that_o christ_n here_o intend_v yet_o since_o as_o we_o have_v prove_v the_o sanction_n before_o this_o be_v take_v away_o i_o mean_v before_o this_o flight_n shall_v be_v he_o do_v not_o press_v they_o to_o pray_v thus_o because_o by_o any_o law_n of_o heaven_n they_o shall_v then_o be_v command_v to_o keep_v it_o holy_a but_o because_o some_o will_v through_o their_o weakness_n have_v conscience_n of_o it_o till_o then_o and_o such_o will_v if_o their_o flight_n shall_v happen_v thereon_o be_v as_o much_o grieve_v and_o perplex_v as_o if_o it_o yet_o stand_v obligatory_a to_o they_o by_o a_o law_n this_o seem_v to_o have_v some_o truth_n in_o it_o because_o among_o the_o jew_n that_o believe_v there_o continue_v a_o long_a time_n many_o that_o be_v wed_v yet_o to_o the_o law_n to_o the_o ceremonial_a part_n thereof_o and_o be_v not_o so_o clear_o evangelize_v as_o the_o church_n of_o the_o

5._o ch_n 21._o 20._o of_o these_o and_o such_o weak_a unbelieve_a jew_n perhaps_o christ_n speak_v when_o he_o give_v this_o exhortation_n to_o they_o to_o pray_v thus_o who_o conscience_n he_o
