A17418 The doctrine of the Sabbath vindicated in a confutation of a treatise of the Sabbath, written by M. Edward Breerwood against M. Nic. Byfield, wherein these five things are maintained: first, that the fourth Commandement is given to the servant and not to the master onely. Seecondly, that the fourth Commandement is morall. Thirdly, that our owne light workes as well as gainefull and toilesome are forbidden on the Sabbath. Fourthly, that the Lords day is of divine institution. Fifthly, that the Sabbath was instituted from the beginning. By the industrie of an unworthy labourer in Gods vineyard, Richard Byfield, pastor in Long Ditton in Surrey. Byfield, Richard, 1598?-1664. 1631 (1631) STC 4238; ESTC S107155 139,589 186

be_v a_o law_n of_o nature_n and_o remain_v but_o as_o the_o speciality_n of_o that_o commandment_n impli_v plain_a contradiction_n with_o the_o sabbaticall_a of_o the_o lord_n day_n so_o the_o

or_o that_o such_o a_o act_n have_v be_v establish_v by_o the_o church_n which_o i_o be_o sure_a you_o can_v never_o do_v neither_o of_o both_o for_o see_v that_o all_o divine_n acknowledge_v that_o the_o single_v out_o of_o such_o a_o day_n to_o be_v sanctify_v namely_o the_o seven_o rather_o than_o any_o other_o be_v mere_o ceremonial_a although_o it_o be_v god_n own_o designation_n i_o hope_v that_o you_o will_v confess_v the_o special_a designment_n of_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n to_o that_o honour_n before_o other_o day_n be_v make_v only_o by_o the_o church_n to_o be_v
