to_o deal_v against_o the_o enemy_n of_o god_n law_n who_o will_v abolish_v the_o whole_a law_n as_o libertine_n anabaptist_n &_o our_o new_a upstart_n eatonists_n they_o do_v defend_v god_n law_n to_o be_v moral_a &_o perpetual_a by_o this_o text_n for_o one_o math._n 5.18_o nay_o i_o know_v not_o any_o text_n we_o have_v in_o all_o the_o new_a testament_n that_o be_v more_o available_a for_o

these_o libertine_n or_o the_o rest_n make_v the_o same_o answer_n to_o they_o when_o they_o produce_v this_o text_n mat._n 5.18_o to_o defend_v the_o perpetuity_n of_o god_n law_n as_o first_o why_o

but_o until_o christ_n passion_n 3._o and_o why_o may_v they_o not_o answer_v you_o also_o that_o there_o be_v some_o iote_n &_o thing_n in_o the_o law_n that_o belong_v not_o unto_o we_o

may_v not_o profane_v the_o sabbath_n day_n by_o work_v travail_a moile_v &_o toile_v on_o it_o for_o about_o 50_o year_n after_o the_o death_n &_o end_n of_o all_o ceremony_n he_o will_v have_v the_o sabbath_n day_n sanctify_v &_o still_o in_o force_n but_o christ_n command_v his_o disciple_n to_o use_v all_o possible_a mean_n that_o they_o may_v not_o profane_v the_o sabbath_n day_n by_o work_v cravail_a moil_a &_o toil_v on_o it_o for_o about_o 50_o year_n after_o the_o death_n and_o end_n of_o all_o coremony_n therefore_o christ_n will_v have_v the_o sabbath_n day_n sanctify_v and_o still_o in_o force_n for_o the_o major_n or_o first_o proposition_n two_o thing_n be_v there_o in_o considerable_a as_o for_o the_o former_a it_o be_v a_o most_o clear_a case_n for_o he_o that_o will_v not_o have_v the_o sabbath_n day_n profane_v he_o will_v have_v it_o sanctify_v and_o observe_v like_v as_o in_o the_o seven_o come_v in_o that_o god_n will_v not_o have_v a_o man_n commit_v adultery_n it_o follow_v that_o god_n will_v have_v he_o live_v chaste_o the_o remove_n of_o one_o contrary_a be_v the_o bring_n in_o of_o the_o other_o the_o forbid_v of_o a_o sin_n be_v the_o

avoid_v &_o the_o contrary_a good_a bring_v in_o &_o so_o he_o that_o command_v all_o possible_a mean_n to_o be_v use_v that_o the_o sabbath_n day_n may_v not_o be_v profane_v he_o will_v not_o have_v the_o sabbath_n day_n profane_v but_o that_o the_o contrary_a good_a shall_v be_v bring_v in_o which_o be_v that_o the_o sabbath_n day_n shall_v be_v sanctify_v for_o to_o that_o very_a end_n that_o it_o may_v not_o be_v profane_v but_o sanctify_v he_o appoint_v the_o mean_n to_o be_v use_v now_o no_o man_n command_v mean_n to_o be_v use_v for_o the_o obtain_n of_o that_o thing_n which_o he_o will_v not_o obtain_v the_o other_o thing_n considerable_a be_v that_o he_o that_o will_v the_o sabbath_n day_n shall_v be_v sanctify_v and_o keep_v from_o profanation_n 50_o year_n after_o the_o death_n of_o all_o ceremony_n he_o will_v that_o the_o sabbath_n day_n shall_v be_v still_o in_o force_n unto_o this_o day_n the_o reason_n hereof_o be_v because_o there_o be_v but_o one_o proper_a time_n for_o the_o abolish_n of_o all_o ceremony_n &_o all_o ceremony_n they_o be_v abolish_v together_o at_o once_o &_o therefore_o whatsoever_o be_v ratify_v &_o to_o be_v observe_v 40_o or_o 50_o year_n after_o the_o proper_a time_n for_o the_o death_n &_o end_n of_o all_o ceremony_n that_o thing_n be_v no_o ceremony_n for_o if_o it_o be_v it_o shall_v not_o have_v suruive_v all_o ceremony_n neither_o be_v it_o abolish_v with_o ceremony_n as_o a_o ceremony_n for_o than_o no_o care_n shoul_n have_v be_v use_v so_o long_o after_o for_o its_o observation_n now_o if_o it_o be_v not_o a_o bolish_v with_o ceremony_n at_o the_o proper_a time_n when_o all_o ceremony_n be_v abolish_v then_o be_v it_o no_o ceremony_n but_o a_o moral_a &_o consequent_o to_o last_v perpetual_o i_o grant_v that_o many_o ceremony_n be_v in_o use_n in_o the_o church_n long_o after_o they_o be_v abolish_v but_o it_o be_v by_o connivency_n and_o by_o sufferance_n only_o &_o for_o the_o weakness_n of_o those_o time_n but_o never_o by_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o lord_n of_o they_o as_o this_o be_v for_o the_o sabbath_n day_n it_o be_v not_o by_o connivency_n for_o christ_n command_v his_o

proposition_n &_o this_o i_o prove_v out_o of_o mat._n 24.20_o but_o pray_v that_o your_o flight_n be_v not_o in_o the_o winter_n neither_o on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n which_o word_n of_o our_o saviour_n do_v full_o prove_v my_o minor_n for_o 1._o these_o word_n be_v a_o commandment_n of_o christ_n in_o that_o he_o bid_v they_o pray_v but_o pray_v etc._n etc._n 2._o this_o commandment_n it_o be_v direct_v unto_o his_o disciple_n as_o you_o may_v see_v mat._n 24.1.2_o three_o this_o commandment_n be_v that_o they_o shall_v use_v all_o possible_a mean_n to_o avoid_v their_o flight_n upon_o the_o sabbath_n day_n for_o there_o be_v none_o other_o mean_n to_o be_v use_v for_o the_o avoid_v of_o this_o flight_n but_o only_a prayer_n to_o god_n for_o their_o study_n &_o care_n and_o other_o humane_a &_o natural_a mean_n can_v do_v nothing_o in_o this_o matter_n for_o the_o prevention_n of_o this_o flight_n so_o then_o prayer_n be_v all_o the_o mean_n that_o possible_o can_v be_v use_v christ_n command_v his_o disciple_n to_o use_v all_o mean_n that_o be_v possible_a to_o be_v use_v yea_o since_o prayer_n must_v be_v accompany_v with_o all_o mean_n &_o indeavore_n of_o man_n if_o more_o mean_n can_v have_v be_v use_v christ_n will_v have_v have_v more_o use_v 4._o this_o mean_n of_o prayer_n to_o god_n which_o christ_n command_v they_o to_o use_v be_v to_o this_o end_n that_o they_o may_v not_o profane_v the_o sabbath_n day_n for_o so_o say_v the_o text_n pray_v that_o your_o flight_n be_v not_o on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n whereby_o you_o
by_o week_n the_o seven_o &_o last_o thing_n they_o have_v that_o have_v any_o likelihood_n to_o prove_v this_o constancy_n be_v the_o frequent_a apparition_n of_o christ_n evermore_o upon_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n or_o lord_n day_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v as_o before_o suppose_v we_o that_o christ_n his_o apparition_n upon_o a_o day_n can_v make_v that_o day_n a_o sabbath_n day_n or_o declare_v it_o to_o be_v so_o as_o fond_o they_o imagine_v yet_o it_o can_v be_v prove_v that_o christ_n appear_v frequent_o and_o every_o week_n upon_o the_o lord_n day_n i_o grant_v that_o christ_n appear_v to_o his_o disciple_n upon_o one_o sunday_n or_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n to_o wit_n on_o that_o very_a day_n whereon_o he_o ●ose_v joh._n 20.14.19_o but_o it_o cannot_v be_v prove_v that_o he_o appear_v any_o more_o upon_o any_o lord_n day_n than_o this_o one_o day_n where_o then_o be_v the_o constancy_n and_o frequency_n of_o christ_n appear_v evermore_o on_o the_o lord_n day_n whereon_o minister_n &_o people_n boast_v so_o much_o if_o there_o can_v be_v find_v but_o one_o lord_n day_n wherein_o he_o appear_v i_o confess_v there_o be_v a_o text_n allege_v for_o a_o second_o lord_n day_n wherein_o he_o appear_v &_o it_o be_v joh._n 20.26_o and_o eight_o day_n after_o again_o his_o disciple_n be_v within_o and_o thomas_n with_o they_o etc._n etc._n to_o this_o text_n i_o answer_v 1._o suppose_v this_o text_n can_v prove_v a_o second_o apparition_n upon_o a_o second_o lord_n day_n yet_o this_o be_v not_o a_o constant_a practice_n of_o christ_n every_o lord_n day_n 2._o but_o this_o text_n be_v nothing_o to_o their_o purpose_n for_o they_o suppose_v that_o this_o phrase_n eight_o day_n after_o compare_v with_o joh._n 20.19_o where_o be_v mention_v of_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n do_v note_n unto_o we_o christ_n second_o day_n apparition_n to_o be_v on_o the_o same_o day_n seven-night_n after_o that_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n whereon_o christ_n rise_v joh._n 26.1.19_o and_o so_o consequent_o upon_o the_o lord_n day_n also_o but_o let_v the_o word_n of_o the_o text_n be_v better_o consider_v of_o and_o they_o will_v afford_v no_o such_o collection_n for_o the_o text_n say_v not_o upon_o the_o same_o day_n seven-night_n wherein_o christ_n rise_v etc._n etc._n but_o it_o say_v eight_o day_n after_o the_o day_n wherein_o he_o rise_v etc._n etc._n now_o 8_o day_n after_o sunday_n can_v fall_v upon_o the_o sunday_n again_o the_o same_o day_n seven-night_n but_o on_o the_o monday_n seven-night_n after_o for_o the_o word_n after_o do_v exclude_v the_o first_o sunday_n whereon_o christ_n rise_v that_o it_o must_v not_o be_v count_v for_o any_o one_o of_o these_o 8_o day_n for_o than_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v upon_o the_o 8_o day_n etc._n etc._n but_o he_o say_v after_o 8_o day_n etc._n etc._n the_o new_a translation_n read_v it_o thus_o and_o after_o eight_o day_n etc._n etc._n now_o after_o 8_o day_n must_v be_v on_o the_o 9th_o day_n or_o 10_o day_n etc._n etc._n and_o so_o not_o on_o the_o same_o day_n seven-night_n as_o they_o imagine_v it_o be_v true_a they_o bring_v a_o text_n wherein_o be_v a_o like_a phrase_n as_o mark._n 8.31_o and_o after_o 3_o day_n rise_v again_o etc._n etc._n which_o must_v be_v understand_v say_v they_o thus_o and_o upon_o the_o three_o day_n rise_v again_o etc._n etc._n according_a to_o 1._o cor._n 15.4_o which_o say_v he_o rise_v the_o three_o day_n etc._n etc._n but_o i_o answer_v howbeit_o i_o can_v give_v other_o answer_n yet_o this_o shall_v suffice_v for_o this_o that_o be_v it_o in_o a_o case_n of_o necessity_n to_o reconcile_v two_o text_n of_o scripture_n we_o be_v necessitate_v to_o depart_v from_o the_o proper_a sense_n of_o the_o one_o yet_o where_o be_v no_o necessity_n as_o here_o be_v none_o there_o to_o depart_v from_o the_o proper_a sense_n of_o word_n be_v unsufferable_a by_o the_o judgement_n of_o all_o

proper_o as_o that_o christ_n appear_v 8_o day_n after_o the_o day_n of_o his_o resurrection_n upon_o the_o monday_n so_o then_o notwithstanding_o all_o their_o wrest_n this_o text_n can_v make_v nothing_o for_o christ_n apparition_n upon_o a_o second_o lord_n day_n where_o then_o be_v those_o apparition_n of_o christ_n so_o constant_o upon_o every_o lord_n day_n there_o can_v but_o one_o day_n apparition_n be_v show_v and_o so_o consequent_o there_o can_v be_v prove_v but_o one_o sabbath_n day_n as_o namely_o once_o in_o a_o year_n upon_o easter_n day_n for_o christ_n apparition_n be_v upon_o easter_n day_n be_v the_o day_n he_o rise_v on_o hitherto_o then_o they_o can_v prove_v a_o weekly_a sabbath_n upon_o every_o lord_n day_n for_o all_o this_o i_o deny_v not_o but_o that_o it_o may_v be_v prove_v that_o christ_n appear_v upon_o every_o lord_n day_n after_o his_o resurrection_n because_o he_o appear_v on_o every_o day_n for_o 40_o day_n together_o act._n 1.3_o but_o this_o text_n i_o know_v they_o dare_v not_o bring_v against_o i_o lest_o whilst_o they_o prove_v the_o frequent_a apparition_n of_o christ_n upon_o every_o lord_n day_n they_o disprove_v their_o

the_o week_n asmuch_o a_o sabbath_n as_o be_v the_o lord_n day_n because_o christ_n appear_v aswell_o upon_o every_o day_n as_o upon_o the_o lord_n day_n yea_o he_o appare_v the_o three_o time_n upon_o a_o fish_n day_n when_o they_o go_v a_o fish_n joh._n 21.1.3.6_o which_o they_o make_v a_o work_v day_n for_o all_o christ_n apparition_n to_o they_o on_o that_o day_n loe_o what_o poor_a stuff_n here_o be_v to_o prove_v the_o constant_a practice_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n &_o yet_o i_o have_v hear_v some_o grave_a divin_n affirm_v that_o this_o one_o argument_n of_o christ_n constant_a appear_v on_o the_o lord_n day_n do_v abundant_o satisfy_v they_o for_o proof_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n sabbath_n do_v you_o not_o think_v therefore_o that_o it_o be_v poor_a stuff_n that_o will_v

have_v answer_v all_o their_o text_n and_o yet_o no_o constant_a continue_a practice_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n appear_v but_o happy_o they_o may_v think_v that_o albeit_o none_o of_o these_o text_n

thus_o much_o for_o this_o objection_n the_o second_o objection_n be_v this_o that_o by_o the_o word_n sabbath_n mention_v in_o the_o text_n may_v be_v mean_v not_o the_o seven_o day_n and_o weekly_a sabbath_n but_o some_o one_o of_o their_o yearly_a sabbath_n &_o so_o then_o if_o christ_n have_v ratify_v any_o thing_n in_o this_o text_n it_o have_v not_o be_v the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n but_o a_o ceremonial_a sabbath_n etc._n etc._n and_o the_o rather_o they_o think_v thus_o because_o it_o be_v think_v that_o when_o the_o jew_n flee_v out_o of_o jerusalem_n it_o be_v not_o upon_o the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n but_o upon_o a_o festival_n sabbath_n but_o hereunto_o i_o reply_v 1._o that_o it_o be_v no_o yearly_a sabbath_n whereof_o christ_n speak_v for_o the_o yearly_a sabbath_n be_v all_o ceremony_n and_o to_o be_v abolish_v long_o before_o that_o siege_n of_o jerusalem_n if_o christ_n disciple_n have_v make_v conscience_n of_o those_o than_o their_o conscience_n have_v be_v superstitiouse_a but_o their_o conscience_n be_v not_o superstitiouse_a as_o have_v be_v show_v &_o therefore_o the_o sabbath_n whereof_o christ_n speak_v and_o they_o make_v conscience_n it_o be_v no_o yearly_a &_o ceremonial_a sabbath_n but_o the_o seven_o day_n and_o weekly_a sabbath_n 2._o the_o word_n sabbath_n when_o in_o scripture_n it_o be_v put_v absolute_o without_o any_o addition_n &_o when_o the_o context_n give_v no_o light_n to_o the_o contrary_a it_o be_v to_o be_v understod_a of_o the_o seven_o day_n &_o weekly_a sabbath_n for_o this_o be_v the_o most_o frequent_a &_o ordinary_a sabbath_n &_o christ_n his_o speech_n be_v to_o be_v understod_a in_o a_o ordinary_a &_o not_o in_o a_o extraordinary_a sense_n and_o of_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v usual_a rather_o than_o of_o those_o which_o be_v rare_a &_o seldom_o as_o for_o their_o reason_n that_o it_o be_v think_v they_o flee_v upon_o a_o yearly_a sabbath_n day_n &_o not_o upon_o the_o weekly_a sabbath_n day_n this_o prove_v not_o that_o therefore_o their_o conscience_n be_v not_o of_o the_o weekly_a sabbath_n day_n but_o rather_o that_o their_o conscience_n be_v of_o the_o weekly_a sabbath_n day_n for_o inasmuch_o as_o christ_n command_v his_o disciple_n to_o pray_v that_o they_o may_v not_o fly_v upon_o a_o sabbath_n day_n it_o be_v to_o be_v believe_v that_o they_o do_v pray_v according_o &_o further_o it_o be_v to_o be_v believe_v that_o since_o they_o pray_v at_o christ_n commandment_n and_o be_v christ_n disciple_n that_o they_o pray_v in_o faith_n and_o that_o therefore_o they_o obtain_v their_o prayer_n whence_o it_o may_v be_v collect_v that_o they_o pray_v against_o flight_n on_o the_o weekly_a seven_o day_n sabbath_n because_o they_o do_v not_o fly_v on_o the_o weekly_a seven_o day_n sabbath_n for_o god_n hear_v their_o prayer_n but_o to_o think_v they_o make_v conscience_n of_o a_o yearly_a ceremonial_a sabbath_n &_o pray_v against_o it_o and_o yet_o be_v drive_v to_o fly_v on_o it_o be_v absurd_o to_o suppose_v that_o god_n crose_v their_o prayer_n and_o deny_v their_o petition_n and_o thus_o much_o for_o the_o 2d_o objection_n the_o last_o objection_n or_o rather_o answer_n be_v that_o by_o the_o name_n sabbath_n day_n christ_n may_v understand_v the_o lord_n day_n but_o why_o may_v they_o not_o as_o well_o say_v when_o christ_n speak_v of_o winter_n

day_n name_v sabbath_n day_n in_o scripture_n sure_a i_o be_o the_o holy_a ghost_n put_v a_o plain_a difference_n betwixt_o the_o sabbath_n day_n &_o the_o lord_n day_n or_o first_o day_n of_o the_o

to_o keep_v it_o and_o it_o may_v be_v thus_o frame_v that_o day_n which_o the_o apostle_n of_o christ_n do_v constant_o observe_v and_o keep_v after_o christ_n death_n and_o which_o the_o primitive_a

to_o keep_v that_o day_n be_v still_o in_o force_n but_o the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n the_o apostle_n of_o christ_n do_v constant_o observe_v and_o keep_v after_o christ_n death_n and_o the_o primitive_a church_n do_v observe_v and_o keep_v it_o after_o the_o day_n of_o the_o apostle_n for_o 300_o or_o 400_o year_n &_o our_o church_n do_v daily_o pray_v to_o god_n to_o incline_v our_o
