can_v be_v no_o obligation_n from_o the_o matter_n have_v it_o not_o be_v revoke_v and_o abolish_v then_o the_o moral_a law_n give_v by_o moses_n must_v still_o oblige_v though_o it_o do_v not_o bind_v in_o respect_n of_o the_o matter_n unless_o we_o can_v show_v where_o it_o be_v repeal_v for_o the_o further_a clear_v of_o this_o you_o may_v consider_v that_o this_o be_v the_o great_a question_n which_o do_v so_o much_o trouble_v the_o church_n in_o her_o infancy_n whether_o gentile_n convert_v be_v bind_v to_o keep_v up_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n whether_o they_o be_v bind_v to_o circumcise_v and_o to_o use_v all_o those_o legal_a purification_n now_o how_o be_v these_o question_n decide_v but_o thus_o that_o they_o be_v but_o the_o shadow_n and_o christ_n the_o fullness_n be_v come_v and_o therefore_o they_o be_v to_o cease_v and_o thus_o for_o the_o judicial_a law_n because_o they_o be_v give_v to_o they_o as_o a_o politic_a body_n that_o polity_n cease_v which_o be_v the_o principal_a the_o accessary_a fall_n with_o it_o so_o that_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n in_o the_o judgement_n of_o all_o have_v still_o bind_v christian_n be_v there_o not_o special_a revocation_n of_o these_o command_n and_o be_v there_o not_o reason_n for_o their_o expiration_n from_o the_o very_a nature_n of_o they_o now_o no_o such_o thing_n can_v be_v affirm_v by_o the_o moral_a law_n for_o the_o matter_n of_o that_o be_v perpetual_a and_o there_o be_v no_o place_n of_o scripture_n that_o do_v abrogate_v it_o and_o if_o you_o say_v that_o the_o apostle_n in_o some_o place_n speak_v of_o the_o law_n seem_v to_o take_v in_o moral_a as_o well_o as_o ceremonial_a i_o answer_v it_o thus_o the_o question_n which_o be_v first_o start_v up_o and_o trouble_v the_o church_n be_v mere_o about_o ceremony_n as_o appear_v act._n 15._o and_o their_o opinion_n be_v that_o by_o the_o usage_n of_o this_o ceremonial_a worship_n they_o be_v justify_v either_o whole_o exclude_v christ_n or_o join_v he_o together_o with_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n now_o it_o be_v true_a the_o apostle_n in_o demolish_n this_o error_n do_v ex_fw-la abundanti_fw-la show_n that_o not_o only_o the_o work_n of_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n but_o neither_o of_o the_o moral_a law_n do_v justify_v but_o that_o benefit_n we_o have_v by_o christ_n only_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n when_o they_o bring_v in_o the_o moral_a law_n in_o the_o dispute_n they_o do_v it_o in_o respect_n of_o justification_n not_o obligation_n for_o the_o main_a question_n be_v whether_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n do_v still_o oblige_v and_o their_o additional_a error_n be_v that_o if_o it_o do_v oblige_v we_o shall_v still_o be_v justify_v by_o the_o performance_n of_o those_o act_n so_o that_o the_o apostle_n do_v not_o join_v the_o moral_a and_o ceremonial_a law_n in_o the_o issue_n of_o obligation_n for_o though_o the_o jew_n will_v have_v hold_v they_o be_v not_o justify_v by_o they_o yet_o they_o may_v not_o have_v practise_v they_o but_o in_o regard_n of_o justification_n and_o this_o be_v the_o first_o argument_n the_o second_o argument_n be_v from_o the_o scripture_n urge_v the_o moral_a argum._n 2_o law_n upon_o gentile_n convert_v as_o oblige_v of_o they_o with_o the_o ground_n and_o reason_n of_o it_o which_o be_v that_o they_o be_v our_o father_n so_o that_o the_o jew_n and_o christian_n believe_v be_v look_v upon_o as_o one_o people_n now_o that_o the_o scripture_n urge_v the_o moral_a law_n upon_o heathen_n convert_v as_o a_o commandment_n heretofore_o deliver_v be_v plain_a when_o paul_n write_v to_o the_o roman_n chap._n 13._o 8_o 9_o he_o tell_v they_o love_n be_v the_o fulfil_n of_o the_o law_n and_o thereupon_o reckon_v up_o the_o commandment_n which_o be_v give_v by_o moses_n thus_o when_o he_o write_v to_o the_o ephesian_n that_o be_v not_o jew_n cap._n 6._o 2._o he_o urge_v child_n to_o honour_v their_o father_n and_o mother_n because_o it_o be_v the_o first_o commandment_n with_o promise_n now_o 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 the_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 argum._n 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 materia_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_a 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 argum._n 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 perpetual_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 and_o thus_o austin_n well_o answer_v porphyrius_n that_o object_v
