dinner_n now_o since_o the_o practice_n of_o christ_n himself_o do_v not_o make_v a_o law_n to_o be_v keep_v of_o necessity_n much_o less_o can_v the_o practice_n of_o his_o disciple_n impose_v such_o a_o law_n upon_o us._n therefore_o if_o it_o be_v grant_v that_o the_o apostle_n keep_v their_o sabbath_n upon_o the_o first_o of_o the_o week_n as_o this_o day_n we_o observe_v and_o that_o very_o laudable_o yet_o may_v we_o for_o our_o christian_n liberty_n alter_v the_o day_n and_o keep_v it_o upon_o another_o second_o because_o christ_n celebrate_v the_o holy_a communion_n of_o his_o body_n

in_o force_n the_o answer_n i_o answer_v that_o the_o memory_n of_o the_o creation_n be_v indeed_o a_o perpetual_a cause_n of_o a_o perpetual_a sabbath_n but_o not_o of_o a_o perpetual_a precise_a

19.30_o that_o it_o be_v the_o consummation_n of_o every_o thing_n needful_a for_o man_n salvation_n but_o doubtless_o where_o one_o oblation_n once_o make_v make_v man_n salvation_n perfect_a and_o
