this_o be_v whole_o from_o moses_n and_o can_v be_v no_o other_o way_n and_o this_o be_v further_a evident_a by_o james_n chap._n 2._o 8_o 10._o in_o his_o epistle_n which_o be_v general_a and_o so_o to_o gentile_n convert_v as_o well_o as_o to_o the_o jew_n now_o mark_v those_o two_o expression_n v_o 8._o if_o you_o fulfil_v the_o royal_a law_n according_a to_o the_o scripture_n that_o be_v of_o moses_n where_o the_o second_o table_n contain_v our_o love_n to_o our_o neighbour_n and_o then_o v_o 10._o he_o that_o say_v do_v not_o commit_v adultery_n say_v also_o do_v not_o kill_v where_o you_o see_v he_o make_v the_o argument_n not_o in_o the_o matter_n but_o in_o the_o author_n who_o be_v god_n by_o moses_n to_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n and_o if_o you_o say_v why_o shall_v these_o commandment_n reach_v to_o they_o i_o answer_v because_o as_o it_o be_v to_o be_v show_v in_o answer_v the_o objection_n against_o this_o truth_n the_o jew_n and_o we_o be_v look_v upon_o as_o one_o people_n observe_v that_o place_n 1_o cor._n 10._o the_o apostle_n write_v to_o the_o corinthian_n say_v our_o father_n be_v all_o baptize_v unto_o moses_n in_o the_o cloud_n and_o sea_n etc._n etc._n now_o how_o can_v this_o be_v true_a of_o the_o corinthian_n but_o only_o because_o since_o they_o believe_v they_o be_v look_v upon_o as_o one_o the_o three_o argument_n be_v from_o the_o obligation_n upon_o we_o to_o keep_v the_o 3._o sabbath_n day_n this_o be_v a_o full_a argument_n to_o i_o that_o the_o moral_a law_n give_v by_o moses_n do_v bind_v we_o christian_n for_o suppose_v that_o opinion_n which_o be_v abundant_o prove_v by_o the_o orthodox_n that_o the_o sabbath_n day_n be_v perpetual_a and_o that_o by_o virtue_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n we_o can_v then_o but_o gather_v that_o the_o commandment_n as_o give_v by_o moses_n do_v bind_v we_o for_o here_o their_o distinction_n will_v not_o hold_v of_o bind_v ratione_fw-la materiae_fw-la by_o reason_n of_o the_o matter_n and_o ratione_fw-la ministerii_fw-la by_o reason_n of_o the_o ministry_n for_o the_o seven_o day_n can_v bind_v from_o the_o matter_n of_o it_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o nature_n why_o the_o seven_o rather_o then_o the_o five_o shall_v oblige_v but_o only_o from_o the_o mere_a command_n of_o god_n for_o that_o day_n and_o yet_o it_o will_v not_o follow_v that_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o keep_v the_o jewish_n seven_o day_n as_o the_o learned_a show_n in_o that_o controversy_n now_o then_o those_o that_o deny_v the_o law_n as_o give_v by_o moses_n must_v needs_o conclude_v that_o we_o keep_v the_o sabbath_n day_n at_o the_o best_a but_o from_o the_o ground_n of_o the_o new-testament_n and_o not_o from_o the_o four_o command_n at_o all_o and_o howsoever_o it_o be_v no_o argument_n to_o build_v upon_o yet_o all_o church_n have_v keep_v the_o moral_a law_n with_o the_o preface_n to_o it_o and_o have_v it_o in_o their_o catechism_n as_o suppose_v it_o to_o belong_v unto_o we_o and_o when_o those_o profane_a opinion_n and_o licentious_a doctrine_n come_v up_o against_o the_o sabbath_n day_n do_v not_o all_o learned_a and_o sound_a man_n look_v upon_o it_o as_o take_v away_o one_o of_o the_o commandment_n therefore_o that_o distinction_n of_o they_o the_o moral_a law_n bind_v as_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n but_o not_o as_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n do_v no_o way_n hold_v for_o the_o sabbath_n day_n can_v be_v from_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o determinate_a time_n but_o have_v its_o morality_n and_o perpetuity_n from_o the_o mere_a positive_a commandment_n of_o god_n the_o four_o argument_n from_o reason_n that_o it_o be_v very_o incongruous_a 4._o to_o have_v a_o temporary_a obligation_n upon_o a_o perpetual_a duty_n how_o probable_a can_v it_o be_v that_o god_n deliver_v the_o law_n by_o moses_n shall_v intend_v a_o temporary_a obligation_n only_o when_o the_o matter_n be_v perpetualy_a as_o if_o it_o have_v be_v thus_o order_v you_o shall_v have_v no_o other_o god_n but_o till_o moses_n his_o time_n you_o shall_v not_o murder_v or_o commit_v adultery_n but_o till_o his_o ministry_n last_v and_o then_o that_o obligation_n must_v cease_v and_o a_o new_a obligation_n come_v upon_o you_o why_o shall_v we_o conceive_v that_o when_o the_o matter_n be_v necessary_a and_o perpetual_a god_n will_v alter_v and_o change_v the_o obligation_n none_o can_v give_v a_o probable_a reason_n for_o any_o such_o alteration_n indeed_o that_o they_o shall_v circumcise_v or_o offer_v sacrifice_n till_o moses_n ministry_n last_v only_o there_o be_v great_a reason_n to_o be_v give_v &_o thus_o austin_n well_o answer_v porphyrius_n that_o object_v god_n be_v worship_v otherways_o in_o the_o old-testament_n then_o in_o the_o new_a that_o be_v no_o matter_n say_v austin_n if_o that_o which_o be_v worship_v be_v the_o true_a object_n though_o it_o be_v worship_v divers_a wave_n when_o appoint_v by_o he_o no_o more_o than_o when_o the_o same_o thing_n be_v pronounce_v in_o divers_a language_n the_o five_o argument_n if_o the_o law_n by_o moses_n do_v not_o bind_v we_o than_o 5._o the_o explication_n of_o it_o by_o the_o other_o prophet_n do_v not_o also_o belong_v unto_o we_o for_o this_o you_o must_v know_v that_o moses_n in_o other_o place_n do_v explain_v this_o law_n and_o david_n psalm_n and_o solomon_n proverb_n as_o also_o the_o prophecy_n of_o the_o prophet_n so_o far_o as_o they_o be_v moral_a be_v nothing_o but_o explication_n of_o the_o moral_a law_n now_o what_o a_o wide_a door_n will_v here_o be_v open_a

that_o belong_v to_o we_o have_v not_o christ_n abolish_v the_o law_n be_v not_o moses_n with_o his_o ministry_n now_o at_o a_o end_n it_o be_v therefore_o worth_a the_o inquiry_n whether_o the_o

belong_v to_o we_o christian_n yet_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o antinomian_o will_v not_o hold_v for_o there_o be_v some_o learned_a and_o solid_a divine_n as_o zanchy_a and_o rivet_v and_o many_o

the_o antinomian_a who_o plead_v for_o the_o total_a abrogation_n of_o the_o law_n thus_o you_o see_v that_o if_o this_o shall_v be_v grant_v yet_o the_o law_n shall_v be_v keep_v up_o in_o its_o

write_v this_o down_o for_o the_o church_n of_o god_n do_v by_o this_o intend_v good_a to_o christian_n in_o the_o new-testament_n and_o this_o can_v be_v well_o deny_v by_o any_o that_o do_v hold_v the_o old-testament_n do_v belong_v to_o christian_n for_o why_o shall_v not_o the_o book_n of_o moses_n belong_v to_o we_o as_o well_o as_o the_o book_n of_o the_o prophet_n three_o therefore_o we_o may_v understand_v it_o thus_o that_o god_n when_o he_o give_v the_o ten_o commandment_n by_o moses_n to_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n though_o they_o be_v the_o present_a subject_n to_o who_o he_o

whether_o when_o he_o deliver_v the_o ten_o commandment_n he_o intend_v only_o the_o jew_n and_o not_o all_o that_o shall_v be_v convert_v hereafter_o it_o be_v true_a the_o people_n of_o israel_n

to_o receive_v it_o as_o well_o as_o jew_n so_o that_o we_o must_v conceive_v of_o moses_n as_o receive_v the_o moral_a law_n for_o the_o church_n of_o god_n perpetual_o but_o the_o other_o law_n in_o

so_o whatsoever_o in_o it_o be_v the_o law_n of_o nature_n do_v oblige_v all_o and_o thus_o as_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n it_o do_v bind_v the_o jew_n before_o the_o promulgation_n of_o it_o upon_o
