have_v to_o meditate_v both_o upon_o our_o creation_n redemption_n and_o sanctification_n now_o upon_o all_o these_o reason_n the_o apostle_n change_v the_o sabbath_n into_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n now_o have_v they_o do_v it_o because_o they_o may_v do_v it_o by_o their_o authority_n apostolic_a for_o they_o be_v lead_v into_o all_o truth_n by_o that_o spirit_n which_o can_v not_o

therefore_o hold_v the_o mean_a which_o the_o apostle_n have_v keep_v and_o in_o truth_n which_o ever_o have_v be_v keep_v namely_o one_o day_n of_o seven_o holy_a §_o sect._n 6_o yea_o but_o will_v some_o man_n say_v all_o this_o while_n we_o see_v no_o apostolical_a institution_n for_o this_o day_n a_o strange_a case_n when_o we_o plead_v the_o institution_n of_o the_o sabbath_n to_o prove_v the_o perpetuity_n of_o the_o sabbath_n then_o man_n call_v for_o the_o practice_n thereof_o now_o we_o urge_v the_o practice_n of_o the_o apostle_n for_o the_o change_n of_o the_o day_n they_o call_v for_o the_o institution_n but_o as_o christ_n answer_v the_o pharisy_n when_o they_o accuse_v he_o false_o of_o break_v the_o sabbath_n have_v you_o not_o read_v what_o david_n do_v how_o that_o when_o he_o be_v hungry_a etc._n etc._n thereby_o defend_v that_o his_o do_v by_o the_o example_n of_o david_n in_o the_o like_a case_n so_o may_v we_o answer_v those_o that_o accuse_v we_o for_o the_o keep_n of_o the_o sabbath_n upon_o this_o day_n have_v you_o not_o read_v what_o the_o apostle_n and_o the_o church_n do_v how_o they_o do_v assemble_v upon_o this_o day_n to_o hear_v the_o

yea_o but_o yet_o the_o doubt_n be_v behind_o for_o how_o come_v we_o say_v they_o to_o translate_v it_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n when_o the_o word_n seem_v rather_o to_o signify_v some_o

be_v most_o certain_a that_o in_o the_o scripture_n there_o be_v not_o any_o other_o day_n mention_v than_o this_o and_o therefore_o it_o must_v consequent_o be_v understand_v of_o this_o it_o be_v then_o keep_v as_o i_o have_v show_v in_o the_o apostle_n time_n and_o the_o other_o day_n then_o not_o observe_v but_o bring_v in_o afterward_o and_o that_o it_o be_v so_o it_o will_v appear_v yet_o
