given to the Gentiles Did not Isaiah cry against them that polluted the Sabbath the seventh day but not the first day Isaiah 56 The Lord said to Ezekiel they greatly have polluted my Sabbath and so broken his Commandement he did not say they have polluted the first day and they walked not in his Statutes see 20 of Ezekiel So they that wrought and do work upon the Sabbath day the seventh day prophaned it and broken the Statutes of God 12 Ezekiel and 13 Ezekiel Now the Jews that had the sign as kept the Covenant of God that was a perpetual Covenant with them the outward Jews Now Christ when he came the substance they accused him to be a Sabbath-breaker and his Disciples who was the everlasting Covenant of God that ended the first that Covenant of the Sabbath day Christ the rest Now Christ did not bid the Jews take his Disciples and stone them to death when they plucked off the ears of corn when they were walking up and down Sabbath dayes journeyes they was not fined or imprisoned or goods strained by the Jews as the Christians do now such as go up and down to the service and worship of God for the Jews said it was not lawful for the Disciples to gather meat to gather corn on the Sabbath day And Christ asked them whether they had not read what David did when he eat of the shew-bread Matth. 1● 4 5. and was blameless And what the Priests did in the Temple and was blameless And told them again that he the Son of man was Lord of the Sabbath that he had power which was as much as to say his Disciples were blameless and did not find fault with them nor did not rebuke them And the Jews did not accuse Christ for doing any thing on the first day of the week nor the Disciples And then after the Jews had accused Christ and his Disciples for plucking ears of corn on the Sabbath day and then after Christ himself healed a man on the Sabbath day they accused him as a Sabbath-breaker see 12. Matth and 2. Mark and so he said unto them was it not lawful to do good on the Sabbath day And this is just now like our Professors and Teachers and corrupt Magistrates that will persecute friends that go to Meetings to edifie one another in the things of God on the first dayes and tell them that they break the Sabbath and the Jewes laugh at them and know that that was never commanded and they keep Markets and Fairs on the seventh day which was the Sabbath day the Covenant between God and the Jewes Which Covenant Christ the everlasting Rest ends And those Jewes who were so mad about the outward day and did not know the everlasting Covenant Christ Jesus they took up stones to stone him as ye may read the 8th of John and the Jewes said it was not lawful for the man that was healed to carry his bed upon the Sabbath day Now the Law had forbidden the carrying of burthens dressing of meat and kindling of fire on the Sabbath day the first Covenant between God and the Jews But the second Covenant was come the Lord of the Sabbath that healed that gave rest and said take up thy bed and walk Is the day made for the man or the man for the day Is the man above the day or the day above the man The Son of man also is Lord of the Sabbath Therefore the Jews went about to slay him and persecuted him for doing good on the Sabbath day the seventh day Not the first day as the Christian Magistrates do now Fines and persecutes such as go to the worship and service of God on the first day and sets open their shops and keeps Markets and Fairs on the seventh day the Sabbath and keeps them shut on the first day The Jews sought to kill Christ because he had not onely broken the Sabbaths day but that he had made himself equal with God see Joh. 6. And this was a great crime accounted that he who was the substance broke the Sabbath day which was the seventh day which the world calls Saturday the Heathen calls it Saturday and all the Christians that be in the Heathenish nature and Fryday and Thursday and Wedensday and Tuesday and Monday that day they worship the Moon and Sunday that day they did worship the Sun Here is the old Heathens Nature and names that knew not God nor Scriptures nor the Law of God For they are onely the Heathen not Christians nor true Jews that calls the dayes Sun and Moon and Twes and Woden and Thur. and Fryday and Saturns day for the true Christians said first day and second day c. to the seventh and that they call Sabbath the Jews But the false Christians they call the first day of the week Sabbath which they call Sunday and Moonday the Christians that is in the Heathenish nature since the dayes of the Apostles as ye may read in the Almanacks And so ye may see how after the Jews outward to whom the first Covenant was the Sabbath the sign outward of Christ the everlasting Covenant John 7. And they said this man Christ he was not of God and a sinner because he kept not the Sabbath therefore was a sinner John 9. 16. Christ Jesus the Covenant who came to end the first Covenant and the day he that did give rest who was the everlasting Covenant of God between God and the people strangers Jews Gentiles and the rest to servant men and maides and cattel and strangers Christ the substance of the first the everlasting Covenant though the first was given not to the Gentiles but onely to a particular people the Jews the Covenant of God between him and them which was to observe a day which was a sign of the everlasting Covenant Christ Jesus so Christ who was the Covenant of God that gave rest unto the Creation did not set forth to the Christians that they should keep another Sabbath day and imprison strain the goods of such as went up and down to private meetings to worship God or as laboured on the first day of the week He did not set up Lawes to oppresse the Creation but he brake them and ended the Law and the first Covenant Christ who Rules himself and hath all power in Heaven and Earth given unto him of the Father And now all ye Christians Teachers and Magistates and Professors If ye will have a Sabbath and cry up a Sabbath ye must offer on the Sabbath dayes two Lambs of the first year without spot two tenth deals of flower for a meat-offering mingled with oil and a drink-offering thereof And this is the burnt-offering in every Sabbath besides the continual burnt-offering and drink-offerings So where is your offerings if ye will have a Sabbath why do ye not cry up offerings as well as the Sabbath why do ye not cry up the day and do none of the work that is to
