liberty_n to_o take_v such_o order_n about_o that_o matter_n as_o they_o shall_v think_v good_a who_o see_v not_o in_o this_o a_o manifest_a absurdity_n do_v it_o not_o remain_v always_o be_v not_o the_o situation_n of_o the_o earth_n which_o be_v the_o same_o that_o it_o be_v from_o the_o beginning_n as_o great_a a_o impediment_n under_o the_o new_a testament_n to_o the_o universal_a keep_n of_o a_o seven_o day_n in_o all_o place_n and_o namely_o of_o that_o particular_a seven_o wherein_o christ_n rise_v from_o death_n unto_o life_n which_o be_v the_o first_o of_o the_o seven_o day_n of_o the_o week_n as_o it_o be_v under_o the_o old_a testament_n to_o a_o universal_a observation_n of_o a_o particular_a seven_o in_o those_o time_n to_o wit_n of_o the_o last_o of_o the_o week_n 4_o whatsoever_o be_v moral_a be_v universal_a oblige_v equal_o all_o man_n and_o may_v be_v keep_v of_o all_o likewise_o all_o commandment_n which_o god_n purpose_n be_v to_o give_v to_o all_o man_n be_v

as_o be_v the_o regular_a keep_n of_o a_o set_a day_n and_o how_o be_v it_o say_v that_o the_o commandment_n enjoin_v the_o keep_n of_o a_o particular_a seven_o day_n whether_o the_o last_o or_o the_o first_o of_o seven_o be_v on_o god_n part_n a_o universal_a commandment_n oblige_v all_o man_n see_v it_o be_v far_o more_o impossible_a to_o a_o great_a number_n of_o man_n to_o keep_v it_o because_o they_o dwell_v in_o more_o remote_a climate_n than_o we_o do_v 5_o therefore_o it_o be_v more_o conformable_a to_o reason_n to_o say_v that_o the_o commandment_n which_o under_o the_o old_a testament_n ordain_v the_o keep_n of_o a_o seven_o day_n oblige_v the_o people_n of_o israel_n only_o which_o be_v the_o only_a people_n of_o god_n be_v shut_v up_o within_o the_o narrow_a bound_n of_o a_o little_a corner_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o may_v with_o great_a facility_n keep_v that_o day_n even_o as_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o politic_a and_o ecclesiastical_a regiment_n

of_o god_n service_n according_a to_o the_o circumstance_n of_o place_n and_o of_o fit_a occasion_n chapter_n six_o reason_n 6._o 1._o the_o observation_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v no_o where_o command_v in_o the_o new_a testament_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o moral_a 2._o jesus_n christ_n prescribe_v to_o his_o disciple_n the_o celebration_n of_o the_o sacrament_n of_o his_o body_n and_o blood_n appoint_v not_o a_o particular_a and_o set_a day_n for_o that_o holy_a exercise_n 3._o neither_o do_v he_o by_o himself_o or_o by_o his_o apostle_n appoint_v a_o particular_a time_n for_o the_o other_o exercise_n of_o religion_n 4._o whence_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o keep_n of_o a_o seven_o day_n for_o god_n service_n can_v be_v a_o moral_a point_n 1_o the_o whole_a tenor_n of_o the_o gospel_n confirm_v our_o assertion_n it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o if_o it_o be_v a_o moral_a duty_n to_o keep_v a_o seven_o day_n all_o christian_n shall_v be_v oblige_v unto_o it_o under_o the_o new_a testament_n as_o the_o jew_n be_v under_o the_o old_a testament_n now_o if_o christian_n be_v bind_v unto_o it_o under_o the_o new_a testament_n we_o shall_v find_v some_o express_a ordinance_n concern_v it_o in_o the_o write_n of_o the_o evangelist_n and_o of_o the_o apostle_n for_o if_o all_o the_o moral_a point_n which_o the_o law_n command_v be_v

of_o idol_n and_o of_o all_o service_n of_o man_n invention_n the_o sanctification_n of_o the_o name_n of_o god_n the_o honour_n dew_n to_o father_n to_o mother_n and_o to_o all_o superior_n the_o

of_o time_n for_o that_o use_n because_o it_o be_v a_o moral_a thing_n that_o god_n be_v serve_v public_o whereunto_o fix_v and_o stint_a time_n be_v necessary_a but_o as_o for_o the_o roll_a and_o stint_v of_o those_o time_n god_n have_v leave_v it_o as_o he_o have_v do_v the_o appoint_v of_o place_n to_o the_o church_n for_o he_o will_v not_o prescribe_v unto_o we_o any_o particular_a place_n nor_o time_n for_o his_o service_n as_o he_o do_v under_o the_o old_a testament_n because_o he_o give_v great_a liberty_n to_o the_o church_n under_o the_o new_a testament_n than_o he_o do_v under_o the_o old_a testament_n to_o who_o bondage_n pertain_v this_o restraint_n of_o a_o certain_a day_n and_o place_n of_o god_n service_n by_o express_a commandment_n as_o also_o because_o the_o greatness_n and_o dilatation_n of_o the_o church_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n which_o be_v catholic_a can_v not_o suffer_v such_o a_o particular_a determination_n nay_o make_v it_o so_o impossible_a that_o of_o absolute_a necessity_n it_o depend_v on_o the_o discretion_n and_o commodity_n of_o the_o church_n 2_o when_o jesus_n christ_n make_v his_o last_o supper_n with_o his_o disciple_n and_o command_v it_o shall_v be_v celebrate_v to_o the_o world_n end_n as_o he_o determine_v the_o use_n and_o practice_v thereof_o with_o certain_a element_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n he_o may_v if_o he_o have_v think_v fit_a allot_v unto_o it_o a_o certain_a time_n such_o as_o be_v of_o old_a the_o time_n of_o passeover_n but_o he_o be_v please_v to_o say_v only_o this_o in_o general_a term_n this_o

for_o the_o solemnize_n thereof_o which_o be_v a_o accidental_a circumstance_n he_o leave_v the_o direction_n thereof_o to_o the_o church_n to_o the_o which_o church_n in_o thing_n concern_v time_n

the_o time_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n for_o see_v they_o be_v please_v to_o say_v of_o the_o holy_a supper_n as_o often_o as_o you_o do_v this_o it_o be_v a_o easy_a matter_n to_o conclude_v thence_o that_o they_o intend_v not_o to_o ordain_v any_o thing_n over_o and_o beside_o belong_v to_o the_o other_o exercise_n but_o to_o say_v only_o as_o often_o as_o you_o shall_v come_v together_o to_o hear_v the_o word_n to_o pray_v public_o etc._n etc._n leave_v the_o determination_n of_o the_o fit_a time_n for_o all_o such_o thing_n to_o the_o church_n and_o therefore_o there_o be_v not_o to_o be_v find_v in_o the_o whole_a gospel_n any_o thing_n enjoin_v to_o that_o purpose_n also_o there_o be_v the_o same_o reason_n for_o all_o other_o exercise_n and_o for_o the_o lord_n supper_n concern_v the_o determination_n of_o a_o set_a ti●●_n for_o if_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v think_v expedient_a to_o appoint_v a_o set_a time_n for_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o word_n there_o have_v be_v as_o good_a cause_n to_o prescribe_v one_o also_o for_o the_o communion_n of_o his_o body_n and_o of_o his_o blood_n i_o know_v that_o some_o passage_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n be_v produce_v which_o be_v pretend_v by_o those_o of_o the_o contrary_a opinion_n to_o enjoin_v express_o a_o set_a day_n of_o the_o week_n for_o the_o exercise_n of_o religion_n but_o i_o shall_v show_v hereafter_o god_n willing_a that_o they_o be_v deceive_v in_o their_o
league_n now_o if_o it_o have_v be_v the_o intention_n of_o jesus_n christ_n to_o ordain_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n for_o a_o sabbath_n day_n and_o to_o enjoin_v to_o all_o christian_n a_o leave_v and_o discontinuance_n of_o all_o ordinary_a work_n on_o that_o day_n it_o be_v likely_a that_o he_o will_v not_o have_v forget_v to_o warn_v his_o two_o disciple_n thereof_o on_o that_o first_o day_n and_o thetwo_o mary_fw-mi to_o who_o he_o show_v himself_o early_o in_o the_o morning_n of_o that_o same_o day_n and_o by_o the_o other_o disciple_n to_o who_o he_o send_v they_o have_v

neither_o do_v we_o find_v that_o he_o do_v it_o at_o any_o other_o occasion_n 14_o in_o the_o twenty_o of_o the_o act_n we_o perceive_v although_o uncertaine_o as_o i_o have_v show_v before_o some_o

it_o be_v appoint_v yet_o all_o these_o law_n show_v that_o before_o they_o be_v publish_v christian_n be_v wont_a save_v the_o hour_n of_o the_o public_a exercise_n of_o religion_n to_o apply_v themselves_o on_o that_o day_n to_o all_o the_o ordinary_a work_n of_o this_o present_a life_n yea_o there_o be_v many_o other_o law_n of_o other_o emperor_n and_o among_o theod._n other_o of_o
