from_o those_o carnal_a ordinance_n to_o close_o with_o the_o proposal_n of_o a_o more_o spiritual_a law_n but_o yet_o this_o text_n can_v in_o reason_n be_v suppose_v to_o exclude_v the_o body_n because_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d from_o whence_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d and_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d worshipper_n and_o shall_v worship_v do_v come_v signify_v to_o kiss_v which_o imply_v a_o act_n of_o the_o body_n and_o the_o septuagint_n use_v the_o same_o word_n to_o express_v a_o worship_n which_o be_v for_o the_o most_o part_n bodily_a viz._n that_o of_o baal_n 1_o king_n 19.18_o i_o have_v leave_v i_o seven_o thousand_o in_o israel_n all_o the_o knee_n which_o have_v not_o bow_v to_o baal_n and_o every_o mouth_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d that_o have_v not_o kiss_v that_o be_v that_o have_v not_o worship_v he_o and_o why_o the_o same_o word_n shall_v in_o one_o place_n signify_v a_o worship_n which_o be_v most_o bodily_a and_o in_o the_o other_o place_n viz._n this_o of_o s._n john_n shall_v signify_v a_o worship_n pure_o spiritual_a or_o exclusive_a of_o the_o body_n i_o do_v not_o yet_o understand_v but_o it_o be_v a_o common_a rule_n in_o expound_v scripture_n that_o that_o can_v be_v the_o meaning_n of_o one_o text_n which_o contradict_v another_o and_o such_o be_v this_o sense_n which_o exclude_v the_o body_n from_o act_n of_o worship_n for_o in_o exod._n 20.5_o bow_v down_o the_o body_n be_v the_o high_a expression_n of_o our_o inward_a reverence_n and_o therefore_o meet_a for_o the_o worship_n of_o the_o great_a god_n be_v make_v a_o act_n of_o divine_a worship_n and_o for_o that_o very_a reason_n be_v forbid_v to_o be_v pay_v to_o the_o creature_n as_o representation_n of_o the_o deity_n therefore_o if_o we_o must_v not_o bow_v down_o to_o the_o true_a god_n than_o we_o may_v bow_v down_o to_o grave_v image_n and_o contrariwise_o if_o we_o must_v not_o bow_v down_o to_o grave_v image_n than_o we_o must_v bow_v down_o to_o the_o true_a god_n and_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o it_o be_v forbid_v to_o be_v pay_v to_o the_o one_o upon_o this_o very_a account_n that_o it_o be_v reserve_v as_o proper_a and_o peculiar_a to_o the_o other_o and_o therefore_o so_o long_o as_o it_o be_v forbid_v to_o be_v give_v to_o image_n so_o long_o it_o remain_v a_o debt_n to_o god_n which_o be_v for_o ever_o this_o command_n be_v moral_a and_o consequent_o perpetual_o oblige_v it_o must_v needs_o therefore_o be_v that_o those_o man_n who_o bow_v down_o to_o neither_o as_o they_o be_v no_o idolater_n so_o they_o be_v no_o worshipper_n and_o because_o they_o will_v not_o be_v redundant_o will_v therefore_o be_v defective_n in_o their_o religion_n from_o this_o precept_n have_v flow_v those_o exhortation_n psal_n 95.6_o o_o come_v let_v we_o worship_n and_o fall_v down_o and_o kneel_v before_o the_o lord_n our_o maker_n which_o be_v no_o part_n of_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n but_o stream_n from_o this_o fountain_n and_o since_o god_n make_v redeem_v and_o promise_v reward_n to_o the_o body_n as_o well_o as_o the_o soul_n it_o be_v all_o the_o reason_n in_o the_o world_n he_o shall_v be_v worship_v by_o both_o from_o which_o topic_n that_o great_a apostle_n argue_v 1_o cor._n 6.20_o you_o be_v buy_v with_o a_o price_n therefore_o glorify_v god_n in_o your_o body_n and_o your_o spirit_n which_o be_v go_n whence_o we_o proceed_v to_o the_o five_o part_n of_o the_o text_n viz._n the_o meetness_n and_o equity_n of_o the_o thing_n it_o be_v your_o reasonable_a service_n that_o you_o present_v your_o body_n a_o live_a sacrifice_n holy_a acceptable_a to_o god_n which_o be_v your_o reasonable_a service_n that_o be_v a_o service_n agreeable_a to_o the_o reason_n of_o man_n and_o dictate_v of_o nature_n abstract_v from_o her_o corruption_n and_o indeed_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v so_o because_o it_o be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o natural_a law_n for_o as_o cicero_n say_v consensio_fw-la omnium_fw-la gentium_fw-la lex_fw-la naturae_fw-la putanda_fw-la est_fw-la the_o consent_n of_o all_o nation_n in_o any_o one_o thing_n must_v be_v repute_v the_o law_n of_o nature_n and_o true_o as_o what_o nature_n teach_v must_v needs_o be_v know_v and_o spread_v as_o far_o as_o humane_a nature_n itself_o so_o when_o we_o find_v all_o nation_n agree_v in_o any_o one_o thing_n we_o can_v in_o reason_n assign_v any_o other_o teacher_n of_o that_o thing_n but_o the_o same_o nature_n now_o jew_n and_o gentile_n greek_n and_o barbarian_a do_v all_o agree_n in_o this_o according_a to_o their_o several_a mode_n and_o capacity_n that_o it_o be_v a_o most_o meet_a and_o reasonable_a thing_n that_o we_o shall_v present_v our_o body_n a_o live_a sacrifice_n to_o god_n whence_o they_o have_v their_o temple_n their_o priest_n and_o sacreds_n and_o in_o their_o moral_a discourse_n they_o teach_v the_o necessity_n and_o way_n of_o root_a out_o vice_n and_o acquire_v virtue_n in_o order_n to_o their_o make_a themselves_o holy_a and_o acceptable_a to_o god_n neither_o can_v any_o think_v i_o too_o dare_v in_o this_o part_n of_o my_o discourse_n that_o consider_v that_o great_a and_o

because_o they_o find_v some_o shadow_n and_o footstep_n of_o they_o in_o gentile_a write_n as_o purification_n by_o water_n and_o this_o before_o homer_n or_o at_o least_o by_o he_o mention_v and_o

demonstration_n that_o therefore_o the_o gentile_n have_v these_o thing_n mediate_o or_o immediate_o from_o the_o jew_n by_o which_o mean_v i_o dare_v undertake_v to_o make_v out_o to_o the_o reason_n of_o man_n that_o they_o may_v as_o well_o make_v the_o history_n of_o one_o nation_n but_o a_o imitation_n and_o corruption_n of_o the_o history_n of_o another_o whereas_o both_o jew_n and_o gentile_n have_v the_o same_o natural_a light_n may_v be_v direct_v thereby_o to_o many_o the_o same_o notion_n and_o like_a custom_n i_o will_v ask_v whether_o the_o gentile_a by_o the_o natural_a light_n of_o the_o understanding_n may_v not_o hit_v upon_o some_o truth_n else_o to_o what_o purpose_n do_v that_o light_n serve_v o_o what_o benefit_n be_v it_o to_o that_o part_n of_o mankind_n that_o have_v no_o further_a direction_n then_o whether_o the_o jew_n have_v the_o same_o light_n together_o with_o the_o far_a addition_n of_o revelation_n may_v not_o hit_v upon_o the_o same_o truth_n whether_o it_o necessary_o follow_v that_o the_o gentile_n have_v this_o from_o the_o jew_n again_o since_o each_o light_n direct_v mankind_n to_o the_o belief_n and_o worship_n of_o the_o deity_n and_o because_o there_o can_v be_v no_o public_a worship_n without_o the_o appointment_n of_o person_n time_n and_o place_n to_o that_o end_n whence_o they_o must_v descend_v to_o many_o particular_a constitution_n and_o custom_n as_o to_o these_o grand_a requisite_n of_o worship_n whether_o we_o can_v in_o reason_n suppose_v that_o it_o be_v not_o likely_a there_o will_v be_v some_o similitude_n as_o to_o person_n habit_n sacreds_n or_o one_o thing_n or_o other_o between_o the_o worship_n of_o each_o although_o these_o two_o body_n of_o man_n may_v never_o hear_v or_o know_v any_o thing_n one_o of_o another_o whence_o let_v reason_n judge_v what_o a_o irrefragable_a argument_n likeness_n of_o notion_n or_o custom_n be_v to_o prove_v they_o all_o of_o jewish_a original_a though_o indeed_o moderate_a and_o rational_a discourse_n on_o this_o subject_n may_v much_o advance_v the_o glory_n of_o sacred_a write_n yet_o to_o press_v they_o so_o far_o as_o some_o have_v do_v rob_v the_o great_a part_n of_o mankind_n of_o their_o very_a reason_n detrude_v they_o into_o low_a species_n and_o therefore_o make_v they_o like_o the_o beast_n that_o perish_v leave_v they_o without_o light_n without_o any_o rule_n of_o life_n without_o law_n and_o consequent_o without_o any_o thing_n whereby_o they_o may_v be_v judge_v at_o the_o last_o day_n but_o i_o know_v not_o how_o
