in_o the_o sabbath_n all_o their_o labour_n will_v be_v lose_v as_o i_o trust_v in_o god_n it_o will_v appear_v at_o the_o last_o what_o they_o say_v against_o the_o 7_o day_n sabbath_n i_o reduce_v to_o two_o head_n the_o former_a shall_v consist_v of_o text_n of_o scripture_n and_o artificial_a argument_n the_o latter_a of_o testimony_n and_o authority_n of_o man_n for_o their_o text_n of_o scripture_n whereby_o they_o will_v prove_v the_o 7_o day_n sabbath_n be_v abolish_v 1._o the_o first_o text_n shall_v be_v that_o of_o isai_n 66.23_o from_o month_n to_o month_n or_o from_o new_a

day_n sabbath_n be_v a_o sign_n and_o that_o of_o the_o everlasting_a sabbath_n in_o heaven_n and_o therefore_o the_o ceremonial_a and_o temporary_a hereto_o i_o answer_v 1._o that_o this_o phrase_n of_o speech_n in_o this_o text_n be_v obscure_a and_o dark_a some_o to_o we_o for_o what_o shall_v be_v mean_v by_o these_o word_n from_o month_n to_o month_n whereof_o be_v these_o a_o sign_n now_o it_o be_v unmeet_a that_o so_o plain_a a_o text_n as_o be_v the_o 4_o com_n touch_v the_o sabbath_n which_o be_v deliur_v in_o plain_a and_o proper_a word_n shall_v be_v contradict_v and_o blot_v out_o by_o a_o other_o text_n which_o be_v in_o metaphoricale_n phrase_n &_o of_o a_o doubtful_a sense_n 2._o if_o this_o sabbath_n be_v a_o sign_n of_o heaven_n it_o be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v a_o temporary_a ceremony_n as_o rather_o it_o be_v perpetual_a moral_a to_o last_v till_o heaven_n come_v as_o have_v be_v say_v before_o for_o the_o sign_n or_o shadow_n be_v to_o last_v until_o the_o body_n a_o substance_n be_v come_v or_o admit_v this_o sabbath_n a_o sign_n both_o of_o the_o whole_a time_n of_o the_o church_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n on_o earth_n and_o also_o of_o the_o church_n triumphant_a in_o heaven_n as_o some_o will_v why_o yet_o i_o hope_v the_o body_n of_o heaven_n have_v as_o much_o force_n to_o moralize_v the_o sabbath_n as_o have_v the_o body_n of_o the_o new_a church_n on_o earth_n to_o ceremonialize_v and_o temporize_v it_o yea_o more_o by_o how_o much_o better_o but_o it_o be_v not_o worth_a our_o labour_n to_o spend_v more_o word_n about_o this_o text_n it_o have_v so_o little_a colour_n to_o any_o thing_n in_o it_o for_o their_o purpose_n 2._o a_o 2_o text_n to_o prove_v the_o sabbath_n a_o ceremony_n and_o so_o abolish_v be_v numb_a 28.9.10_o where_o it_o be_v command_v the_o isralite_n to_o offer_v two_o lamb_n for_o for_o a_o sacrifice_n on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n hereto_o i_o answer_v 1._o why_o shall_v the_o sacrifice_a of_o two_o lamb_n on_o the_o sabbath_n make_v the_o sabbath_n a_o ceremony_n and_o abolish_v any_o more_o than_o the_o sacrifice_a of_o one_o lamb_n every_o day_n for_o a_o daily_o burn_v offer_v numb_a 28.4.6_o make_v the_o work_a day_n of_o the_o week_n ceremonial_a and_o abolish_v 2._o have_v not_o the_o moral_a work_n in_o the_o sabbath_n as_o rest_n and_o holiness_n and_o remembrance_n of_o god_n rest_v after_o creation_n as_o much_o and_o more_o power_n over_o the_o time_n and_o day_n wherein_o they_o be_v do_v to_o moralize_v and_o eternize_v the_o sabbath_n as_o have_v the_o sacrifice_a two_o lamb_n to_o ceremonize_v and_o temporize_v the_o sabbath_n or_o if_o sacrifice_n can_v abolish_v the_o time_n of_o the_o sabbath_n which_o be_v command_v why_o do_v they_o not_o also_o abolish_v the_o duty_n in_o the_o time_n as_o rest_n and_o holiness_n 3._o the_o sabbath_n be_v a_o sabbath_n in_o nature_n and_o institution_n before_o there_o be_v any_o sacrifice_n for_o it_o be_v in_o time_n of_o adam_n innocency_n before_o the_o fall_n wherefore_o as_o the_o apostle_n gal._n 3.17_o reason_v of_o the_o promise_n and_o of_o the_o law_n that_o the_o law_n can_v not_o disanulle_v the_o promise_n to_o abraham_n which_o come_v 430._o year_n after_o the_o promise_n so_o say_v i_o sacrifice_n can_v disanulle_v the_o sabbath_n since_o the_o sabbath_n be_v before_o any_o sacrifice_n and_o since_o sacrifice_n come_v after_o the_o sabbath_n as_o therefore_o the_o sabbath_n have_v a_o be_v before_o sacrifice_n and_o ceremony_n so_o may_v it_o have_v its_o be_v after_o all_o sacrifice_n and_o ceremony_n be_v abolish_v 3._o a_o 3_o text_n be_v in_o deuter._n 5.15_o where_o the_o lord_n tell_v the_o israelite_n he_o bring_v they_o out_o of_o egypte_n and_o therefore_o the_o lord_n command_v they_o to_o keep_v the_o sabbath_n whence_o they_o will_v argue_v to_o this_o effect_n since_o that_o the_o sabbath_n be_v a_o effect_n of_o or_o have_v necessary_a dependence_n upon_o their_o deliverance_n out_o of_o egypt_n it_o follow_v if_o that_o deliverance_n out_o of_o egypt_n be_v but_o ceremonial_a as_o a_o thing_n proper_a to_o the_o jew_n then_o so_o be_v the_o sabbath_n also_o i_o answer_v 1._o the_o sabbath_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o effect_n or_o have_v dependence_n of_o a_o other_o thing_n two_o way_n one_o as_o touch_v its_o observation_n the_o other_o as_o touch_v its_o institution_n now_o this_o deliverance_n out_o of_o egypt_n be_v not_o cause_n of_o the_o sabbath_n institution_n for_o the_o sabbath_n be_v before_o they_o ever_o go_v down_o into_o egypt_n genes_n 2.3_o neither_o be_v or_o can_v the_o deliverance_n out_o of_o egypt_n be_v the_o sole_a cause_n nor_o the_o chief_a cause_n of_o the_o sabbath_n institution_n for_o god_n own_o rest_n upon_o that_o day_n genes_n 2.3_o be_v the_o chief_a cause_n and_o next_o the_o sabbath_n be_v make_v for_o man_n mark._n 2.27_o that_o be_v for_o the_o ease_n and_o benefit_n of_o his_o body_n and_o for_o the_o good_a and_o edification_n of_o his_o soul_n in_o duty_n of_o holiness_n but_o as_o touch_v the_o sabbath_n observation_n the_o deliverance_n from_o egypt_n may_v be_v a_o cause_n and_o be_v and_o ought_v to_o be_v a_o motive_n to_o obedience_n in_o observance_n &_o keep_v the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o so_o all_o blessing_n whatsoever_o shall_v be_v motive_n to_o obedience_n as_o deut._n 6.20.21.23.24_o deuter._n 28.47.48_o but_o what_o if_o these_o blessing_n fail_v and_o god_n give_v other_o in_o room_n of_o they_o shall_v our_o obedience_n and_o observance_n fail_v and_o vanish_v what_o and_o if_o we_o christian_n have_v not_o that_o one_o particular_a blessing_n of_o deliverance_n from_o egypt_n which_o the_o jewe_n have_v have_v we_o no_o many_o other_o blessing_n and_o deliverance_n to_o move_v we_o to_o obedience_n as_o from_o that_o armade_a in_o 88_o from_o the_o gunpowder_n plot_n and_o i_o know_v not_o how_o many_o more_o i_o conclude_v that_o since_o the_o deliverance_n out_o of_o egypt_n be_v not_o the_o cause_n of_o the_o sabbath_n institution_n but_o only_o of_o its_o after_o observation_n therefore_o though_o that_o deliverance_n be_v ceremonial_a yet_o be_v not_o the_o sabbath_n ceremonial_a 2._o i_o answer_v if_o this_o motive_n of_o isralite_n deliverance_n from_o egypt_n because_o not_o belong_v to_o we_o christian_n therefore_o show_v the_o sabbath_n belong_v not_o to_o we_o neither_o then_o may_v we_o by_o as_o good_a reason_n abolish_v not_o the_o sabbath_n alone_o but_o the_o whole_a moral_a law_n also_o and_o then_o as_o we_o will_v none_o of_o the_o jew_n sabbath_n to_o be_v we_o no_o more_o need_n we_o will_v the_o jew_n god_n to_o be_v we_o command_v in_o the_o first_o come_v for_o the_o reason_n to_o induce_v to_o obedience_n and_o have_v the_o true_a god_n for_o their_o god_n be_v this_o i_o law_n as_o therefore_o when_o the_o apostle_n say_v ephes_n 2.15_o christ_n abrogate_a the_o law_n of_o commandment_n we_o understand_v it_o only_o of_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n of_o commandment_n not_o of_o the_o moral_a so_o where_o here_o the_o apostle_n take_v away_o the_o difference_n of_o day_n i_o understand_v he_o to_o abolish_v only_o ceremonial_a day_n but_o not_o the_o moral_a 7_o day_n sabbath_n i_o answer_v 3d._o if_o all_o difference_n of_o all_o day_n be_v abolish_v why_o then_o keep_v we_o the_o lord_n day_n now_o for_o a_o sabbath_n in_o a_o religiouse_a manner_n if_o you_o say_v you_o keep_v it_o not_o as_o a_o ceremony_n or_o type_n &_o shadow_n of_o christ_n to_o come_v which_o be_v the_o reason_n of_o the_o sabbath_n abolition_n but_o in_o other_o respect_n as_o in_o remembrance_n of_o christ_n already_o come_v why_o then_o by_o like_a reason_n may_v not_o the_o 7_o day_n sabbath_n be_v now_o keep_v by_o we_o so_o be_v we_o lie_v aside_o that_o suppose_v typical_a shaddowish_a respect_n which_o it_o have_v of_o christ_n to_o come_v and_o we_o keep_v it_o in_o other_o respect_n as_o in_o remembrance_n of_o
table_n of_o stone_n to_o notify_v its_o perpetuity_n they_o have_v no_o plain_a and_o direct_a text_n of_o scripture_n necessary_o abolish_n it_o it_o can_v be_v nothing_o then_o but_o their_o bare_a will_n and_o pleasure_n to_o have_v it_o abolish_v and_o this_o ground_v upon_o the_o custom_n of_o the_o church_n because_o she_o have_v abolish_v it_o now_o a_o long_a tyme._n they_o have_v not_o thus_o do_v with_o it_o though_o for_o they_o have_v also_o certain_a reason_n &_o argument_n more_o which_o we_o now_o come_v to_o my_o mind_n against_o the_o time_n and_o day_n where_o by_o they_o will_v prove_v the_o sabbath_n day_n abolish_v the_o first_o be_v take_v from_o christ_n himself_o say_v some_o man_n why_o christ_n himself_o abolish_v the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o that_o even_o in_o his_o own_o time_n whilst_o he_o be_v upon_o the_o earth_n for_o he_o give_v leave_v to_o work_n upon_o the_o sabbath_n as_o to_o lead_v beast_n to_o water_n to_o toil_n about_o lift_v a_o beast_n out_o of_o a_o ditch_n yea_o himself_n make_v clay_n on_o the_o sabbath_n to_o open_v the_o eye_n of_o the_o blind_a man_n in_o so_o much_o as_o the_o pharise_n tax_v he_o for_o a_o breaker_n of_o the_o sabbath_n and_o for_o a_o godless_a man_n for_o it_o say_v this_o man_n be_v not_o of_o god_n because_o he_o keep_v not_o the_o sabbath_n day_n joh._n 9.16.14_o hereto_o i_o answer_v 1._o what_o matter_n it_o what_o those_o superstitious_a pharise_n censure_v of_o christ_n who_o be_v the_o blind_a leader_n of_o the_o blind_a and_o of_o envy_n can_v not_o endure_v christ_n shall_v do_v any_o

sabbath_n yet_o it_o appear_v it_o be_v but_o envy_n &_o but_o superstition_n in_o they_o for_o christ_n approve_v his_o own_o fact_n of_o heal_v on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n by_o a_o common_a practice_n among_o the_o jew_n themselves_o at_o that_o day_n of_o the_o like_a say_n what_o man_n among_o you_o if_o his_o sheep_n fall_v on_o the_o sabbath_n into_o a_o pit_n do_v not_o take_v it_o and_o lift_v it_o out_o mat._n 12.10.11_o yea_o it_o appear_v the_o pharise_n and_o doctoures_fw-la of_o the_o law_n even_o under_o the_o law_n allow_v other_o man_n though_o not_o christ_n nor_o his_o disciple_n to_o do_v work_n of_o charity_n and_o necessity_n on_o the_o sabbath_n as_o to_o lift_v a_o sheep_n out_o of_o the_o ditch_n and_o for_o the_o priest_n to_o kill_v the_o sacrifice_n on_o the_o sabbath_n matt._n 12.5.11_o i_o answer_v 2._o let_v not_o we_o attend_v to_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharise_n censure_n but_o harken_v we_o to_o christ_n the_o true_a expounder_n &_o observer_n of_o the_o law_n now_o he_o allow_v work_n of_o mercy_n and_o work_n of_o necessity_n to_o be_v do_v on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n as_o those_o instance_n afore_o mention_v do_v prove_v but_o for_o any_o to_o suppose_v christ_n mean_v hereby_o to_o abolish_v the_o sabbath_n be_v a_o simple_a conceit_n for_o christ_n say_v of_o the_o moral_a law_n whereof_o the_o sabbath_n day_n be_v a_o branch_n he_o come_v not_o to_o destroy_v the_o law_n but_o to_o fulfil_v it_o mat._n 5.17_o but_o suppose_v the_o sabbath_n have_v be_v a_o branch_n of_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n why_o yet_o it_o be_v absurd_a to_o think_v that_o christ_n will_v abrogate_v any_o thing_n of_o it_o so_o long_o as_o he_o live_v for_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n be_v equal_o in_o force_n with_o the_o moral_a law_n until_o christ_n death_n so_o than_o these_o thing_n do_v not_o argue_v any_o abolition_n of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n then_o but_o rather_o give_v we_o to_o understand_v how_o we_o christian_n be_v to_o keep_v the_o lord_n sabbath_n to_o the_o world_n end_n not_o in_o any_o superstitious_a strictness_n as_o if_o we_o may_v not_o on_o that_o day_n do_v work_n of_o mercy_n and_o necessity_n but_o the_o contrary_a for_o if_o christ_n allow_v it_o to_o the_o jew_n even_o before_o his_o death_n whilst_o no_o man_n doubt_v but_o all_o law_n moral_a &_o ceremonial_a be_v in_o force_n why_o shall_v we_o think_v but_o that_o he_o allow_v as_o much_o liberty_n to_o christian_n to_o the_o world_n end_n 2._o a_o 2_o reason_n be_v fetch_v from_o that_o phrase_n mat._n 12.8_o the_o son_n of_o man_n be_v lord_n of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n whence_o it_o be_v think_v that_o since_o christ_n be_v call_v the_o lord_n of_o the_o sabbath_n that_o therefore_o christ_n may_v change_v the_o sabbath_n day_n &_o second_o that_o christ_n as_o lord_n of_o the_o day_n do_v abolish_v the_o day_n i_o answer_v first_o to_o the_o former_a say_v i_o shall_v grant_v that_o christ_n the_o lord_n of_o the_o sabbath_n may_v or_o may_v change_v the_o sabbath_n what_o be_v that_o to_o our_o question_n we_o dispute_v not_o of_o what_o christ_n may_v or_o may_v do_v but_o what_o christ_n do_v do_v i_o answer_v to_o the_o latter_a that_o neither_o the_o context_n nor_o yet_o the_o phrase_n of_o christ_n be_v lord_n of_o the_o sabbath_n will_v afford_v any_o such_o matter_n see_v the_o absurdety_n of_o such_o collection_n from_o a_o like_a phrase_n rom._n 14.9_o christ_n die_v and_z rise_v again_o that_o he_o may_v be_v lord_n both_o of_o the_o dead_a and_o of_o the_o live_n can_v any_o hence_o

abolish_v the_o sabbath_n day_n as_o a_o ceremony_n be_v altogether_o growndlesse_a for_o both_o at_o this_o time_n when_o christ_n speak_v these_o word_n all_o ceremony_n be_v in_o full_a force_n and_o also_o so_o they_o remain_v ever_o after_o until_o the_o day_n of_o his_o death_n and_o passion_n for_o not_o until_o then_o be_v the_o handwriting_n of_o ordinance_n take_v out_o of_o the_o way_n col._n 2.14_o nor_o until_o his_o death_n do_v christ_n ever_o abolish_v any_o ordinance_n former_o in_o use_n in_o the_o jewish_a church_n to_o conclude_v no_o more_o can_v be_v gather_v out_o of_o this_o text_n mat_n 12.8_o but_o the_o right_a use_n of_o the_o sabbath_n christ_n free_v it_o from_o the_o superstition_n of_o the_o pharise_n who_o hold_v that_o no_o work_n may_v be_v do_v

the_o true_a sense_n and_o exposition_n of_o the_o commandment_n and_o to_o have_v show_v they_o the_o right_a use_n of_o a_o sabbath_n day_n as_o if_o he_o have_v thus_o say_v since_o i_o be_o lord_n of_o the_o sabbath_n do_v not_o you_o pharisy_n think_v that_o i_o will_v give_v way_n no_o not_o to_o my_o disciple_n to_o do_v any_o unlawful_a fact_n on_o this_o day_n nor_o suffer_v they_o to_o

of_o the_o week_n and_o one_o day_n in_o 7._o for_o a_o sabbath_n for_o this_o be_v jewish_a as_o it_o be_v call_v and_o to_o imitate_v god_n in_o the_o creation_n but_o we_o christian_n have_v a_o other_o pattern_n that_o be_v christ_n the_o lord_n and_o redeemer_n to_o imitate_v and_o that_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o work_n of_o redemption_n so_o as_o if_o we_o hold_v it_o best_a to_o

since_o the_o first_o lord_n day_n whereon_o christ_n rise_v the_o lord_n day_n let_v it_o fale_v upon_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n or_o on_o the_o 2_o or_o 3_o or_o 4_o etc._n etc._n one_o any_o day_n of_o the_o week_n my_o reason_n be_v because_o the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o that_o our_o lord_n christ_n rise_v upon_o the_o 3_o day_n as_o god_n rest_v on_o the_o 7_o day_n so_o then_o

must_v imitate_v christ_n in_o the_o work_n of_o redemption_n as_o do_v the_o jew_n god_n in_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n then_o look_v as_o god_n work_v 6._o day_n and_o rest_v the_o 7_o the_o

keep_v it_o for_o a_o sabbath_n so_o we_o shall_v not_o then_o keep_v these_o we_o now_o call_v lord_n day_n for_o our_o sabbath_n but_o other_o nor_o keep_v a_o sabbath_n once_o in_o 7._o day_n but_o on_o it_o once_o every_o 3._o day_n i_o answer_v now_o to_o the_o reason_n whereby_o they_o will_v choose_v out_o the_o lord_n day_n afore_o any_o other_o of_o the_o 6._o day_n for_o a_o sabbath_n because_o on_o that_o day_n we_o receive_v the_o lord_n from_o the_o dead_a the_o great_a work_n and_o mercy_n that_o ever_o we_o receive_v &c._n &c._n here_o unto_o i_o answer_v if_o the_o great_a

the_o work_n of_o creation_n i_o answer_v 1._o the_o reason_n be_v not_o the_o same_o and_o therefore_o it_o follow_v not_o for_o the_o jew_n they_o do_v not_o set_v up_o a_o sabbath_n on_o their_o

stay_v for_o a_o commandment_n from_o the_o god_n of_o the_o creation_n to_o command_v they_o a_o sabbath_n by_o his_o 4_o comm_n and_o to_o tell_v they_o which_o day_n of_o the_o 7._o to_o keep_v &_o it_o be_v god_n commandment_n principal_o that_o set_v they_o one_o work_n to_o keep_v a_o sabbath_n now_o this_o which_o be_v the_o main_a for_o the_o keep_n of_o a_o sabbath_n day_n be_v leave_v on_o it_o in_o their_o argument_n as_o if_o god_n comm_n be_v but_o a_o by_o thing_n and_o not_o necessary_o presuppose_v in_o every_o sabbath_n wherefore_o let_v they_o put_v into_o their_o

i_o bide_v they_o prove_v likewise_o that_o we_o christian_n have_v such_o strong_a reason_n to_o keep_v our_o lord_n day_n a_o sabbath_n as_o jew_n have_v for_o their_o day_n that_o be_v i_o require_v to_o show_v i_o where_o christ_n or_o his_o apostle_n leave_v we_o a_o express_a commandment_n to_o sanctify_v the_o lord_n day_n as_o god_n do_v to_o the_o jew_n to_o sanctify_v the_o 7_o day_n and_o then_o i_o say_v indeed_o if_o the_o jew_n keep_v the_o 7_o day_n we_o christian_n ought_v keep_v the_o 8_o day_n or_o thus_o be_v great_a than_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n if_o it_o be_v great_a the_o answer_n will_v be_v to_o the_o elect_a and_o to_o the_o redeem_v it_o be_v great_a well_o be_v it_o so_o but_o what_o be_v this_o to_o our_o question_n which_o be_v general_a of_o all_o christian_n that_o live_v with_o in_o the_o pale_a of_o the_o church_n affirm_v that_o if_o jew_n that_o be_v all_o jew_n keep_v a_o sabbath_n for_o the_o creation_n then_o ought_v christian_n

be_v it_o that_o such_o as_o have_v no_o part_n in_o christ_n as_o a_o redeemer_n shall_v weekly_o celebrate_v on_o whole_a day_n neglect_v their_o profit_n and_o calling_n in_o memory_n of_o christ_n the_o redeemer_n of_o right_n therefore_o only_o such_o a_o day_n shall_v be_v a_o sabbath_n as_o bind_v all_o and_o every_o man_n one_o as_o well_o as_o a_o other_o and_o such_o be_v the_o 7_o day_n

call_v the_o jew_n lord_n god_n i_o can_v see_v no_o reason_n but_o that_o the_o one_o may_v be_v so_o call_v as_o well_o as_o the_o other_o nor_o any_o reason_n but_o if_o we_o may_v call_v the_o

fault_n be_v only_o in_o ourselves_o wherefore_o to_o avoid_v all_o difference_n about_o the_o name_n let_v it_o not_o be_v call_v the_o jew_n sabbath_n day_n nor_o the_o christian_n sabbath_n day_n as_o proper_a to_o eighther_n but_o let_v we_o call_v it_o the_o lord_n sabbath_n day_n as_o common_a to_o jew_n and_o to_o christian_n both_o and_o as_o appertain_v unto_o all_o nation_n unto_o who_o

say_v the_o 7_o day_n be_v the_o sabbath_n of_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n 1._o my_o first_o argument_n to_o prove_v the_o 7_o day_n sabbath_n be_v still_o in_o force_n be_v because_o the_o 8_o day_n sabbath_n or_o lord_n day_n be_v not_o in_o force_n and_o thus_o it_o may_v be_v frame_v if_o our_o now_o sabbath_n call_v the_o lord_n day_n which_o be_v eighther_o on_o the_o 8_o or_o on_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v not_o in_o force_n then_o must_v the_o 7_o day_n which_o be_v the_o day_n next_o foregoe_v the_o lord_n day_n be_v now_o in_o force_n but_o our_o now_o sabbath_n call_v the_o lord_n day_n which_o be_v on_o the_o 8_o or_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v not_o in_o force_n therefore_o the_o 7_o day_n which_o be_v next_o foregoe_v the_o lord_n day_n be_v now_o in_o force_n more_o brief_o thus_o if_o the_o 8_o day_n be_v not_o in_o force_n then_z the_o 7_o day_n be_v in_o force_n but_o the_o 8_o day_n be_v not_o in_o force_n ergo_fw-la the_o 7_o day_n be_v in_o force_n i_o prove_v the_o consequence_n to_o be_v good_a because_o eighther_o the_o 7_o or_o the_o 8_o day_n must_v be_v sabbath_n the_o one_o of_o they_o for_o of_o all_o the_o seven_o day_n in_o the_o week_n there_o be_v no_o scruple_n or_o question_n between_o they_o and_o i_o save_v only_o about_o these_o two_o day_n so_o as_o one_o of_o these_o two_o day_n must_v be_v sabbath_n by_o both_o our_o consent_n especial_o since_o we_o all_o hold_v it_o moral_a that_o one_o day_n in_o every_o 7._o must_v be_v a_o sabbath_n which_o to_o deny_v be_v great_a impiety_n i_o prove_v the_o minor_a that_o be_v that_o the_o 8_o day_n or_o lord_n day_n be_v not_o in_o force_n and_o this_o i_o prove_v because_o there_o be_v neither_o precept_n nor_o practice_v neither_o of_o christ_n nor_o of_o any_o of_o his_o apostle_n in_o scripture_n to_o put_v the_o lord_n day_n in_o force_n and_o this_o task_n i_o have_v particular_o and_o large_o make_v good_a in_o the_o first_o part_n of_o my_o book_n where_o i_o have_v show_v by_o way_n of_o answer_n that_o the_o lord_n day_n be_v not_o a_o sabbath_n day_n by_o diviue_v institution_n 2._o my_o 2_o argument_n be_v because_o the_o 7_o day_n sabbath_n be_v not_o abolish_v and_o it_o may_v thus_o be_v frame_v that_o which_o be_v not_o abolish_v that_o be_v now_o in_o force_n but_o the_o 7_o day_n sabbath_n be_v not_o abolish_v therefore_o the_o 7_o day_n sabbath_n be_v now_o in_o force_n i_o need_v not_o prove_v the_o mayor_n since_o it_o be_v plain_a to_o every_o eye_n for_o the_o minor_a this_o i_o have_v prove_v particular_o and_o large_o in_o the_o 3_o part_n of_o my_o book_n where_o by_o way_n of_o answer_n i_o have_v show_v that_o the_o 7_o day_n sabbath_n be_v not_o abolish_v 3._o my_o 3_o argument_n be_v because_o the_o 7_o day_n sabbath_n be_v never_o change_v and_o it_o may_v thus_o be_v frame_v that_o which_o be_v never_o alter_v nor_o change_v by_o christ_n or_o by_o his_o apostle_n that_o be_v still_o in_o force_n to_o this_o day_n but_o the_o 7_o day_n sabbath_n be_v never_o alter_v nor_o change_v by_o christ_n or_o by_o his_o apostle_n therefore_o the_o 7_o day_n sabbath_n be_v still_o in_o force_n to_o this_o day_n the_o mayor_n be_v clear_a of_o itself_o since_o thing_n once_o institute_v by_o god_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n if_o ever_o they_o be_v alter_v it_o must_v be_v by_o christ_n or_o his_o apostle_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n for_o the_o minor_a note_v that_o the_o word_n change_n intimate_v two_o thing_n the_o one_o be_v the_o abolish_n of_o the_o old_a other_o be_v the_o bring_n in_o of_o a_o new_a as_o david_n 2._o sam._n 12.20_o he_o change_v his_o apparel_n that_o be_v he_o leave_v or_o lay_v of_o his_o mourn_a apparel_n and_o he_o put_v on_o other_o

than_o he_o be_v towards_o jew_n about_o the_o sabbath_n of_o the_o passeover_n one_o objection_n more_o what_o and_o if_o we_o can_v have_v public_a assembly_n in_o the_o congregation_n may_v be_v we_o not_o bind_v to_o keep_v the_o sabbath_n as_o we_o can_v private_o every_o man_n in_o his_o own_o family_n i_o answer_v since_o god_n have_v ordain_v the_o sabbath_n to_o be_v keep_v with_o public_a assembly_n and_o with_o the_o help_n of_o priest_n or_o minister_n as_o have_v be_v show_v therefore_o i_o judge_v it_o better_a to_o alter_v the_o day_n until_o the_o time_n of_o

day_n that_o this_o opinion_n be_v justifiable_a see_v the_o like_a practice_n of_o the_o good_a king_n hezekiah_n fore_o mention_v 2._o chron._n 30.1.2.3_o who_o because_o the_o priest_n be_v not_o

thus_o answer_v 1._o to_o the_o latter_a touch_v the_o reason_n of_o our_o change_n they_o be_v not_o the_o same_o indeed_o every_o way_n yet_o if_o they_o be_v as_o they_o be_v as_o necessary_a to_o
