seem_v strange_a i_o pray_v consider_v act_n 21.23_o 24_o 25._o where_o it_o be_v observable_a that_o a_o holy_a convocation_n of_o apostle_n and_o elder_n be_v meet_v at_o jerusalem_n do_v enjoin_v paul_n to_o observe_v something_n which_o at_o no_o hand_n they_o will_v have_v the_o gentile_n to_o observe_v but_o give_v they_o a_o solemn_a charge_n to_o the_o contrary_a for_o in_o the_o 23_o and_o 24_o verse_n the_o assembly_n of_o apostle_n and_o elder_n do_v enjoin_v paul_n say_v do_v this_o that_o we_o say_v to_o thou_o we_o have_v four_o man_n which_o have_v a_o vow_n upon_o they_o they_o take_v and_o purify_v thyself_o with_o they_o and_o be_v at_o charge_n with_o they_o that_o they_o may_v shave_v their_o head_n and_o all_o may_v know_v that_o those_o thing_n whereof_o they_o be_v inform_v concern_v thou_o be_v nothing_o but_o that_o thou_o thyself_o walk_v orderly_a and_o keep_v the_o law_n but_o as_o touch_v the_o gentile_n which_o believe_v we_o have_v write_v and_o conclude_v that_o they_o observe_v no_o such_o thing_n etc._n etc._n here_o we_o see_v a_o holy_a convocation_n of_o apostle_n and_o elder_n guide_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n do_v require_v that_o of_o paul_n be_v a_o jew_n that_o they_o express_o command_v the_o gentile_a believer_n not_o to_o observe_v will_v it_o not_o be_v ridiculous_a then_o for_o a_o man_n to_o say_v that_o i_o must_v either_o observe_v all_o the_o apostle_n injunction_n to_o the_o jew_n or_o else_o that_o i_o must_v reject_v all_o the_o injunction_n of_o the_o apostle_n even_o those_o that_o concern_v the_o gentile_n for_o after_o this_o rate_n mr._n tillam_n reason_n viz._n that_o i_o must_v either_o observe_v all_o james_n his_o epistle_n or_o none_o at_o all_o because_o say_v he_o there_o be_v no_o difference_n between_o jew_n and_o greek_n now_o then_o by_o this_o place_n in_o the_o 21_o of_o the_o act_v you_o see_v there_o be_v some_o difference_n by_o order_n from_o the_o apostle_n in_o point_n of_o observation_n but_o no_o difference_n in_o point_n of_o justification_n which_o be_v the_o scope_n of_o the_o apostle_n in_o that_o text_n cite_v by_o mr._n tillam_n rom._n 10.11_o 12._o there_o be_v no_o difference_n between_o jew_n and_o greek_n for_o the_o same_o lord_n over_o all_o be_v rich_a unto_o all_o that_o call_v upon_o he_o so_o that_o the_o argument_n remain_v unanswered_a for_o all_o that_o mr._n tillam_n have_v say_v because_o the_o scripture_n say_v plain_o that_o the_o uncircumcised_a gentile_n be_v not_o bind_v to_o keep_v the_o whole_a law_n therefore_o from_o those_o word_n the_o whole_a law_n the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n can_v reasonable_o be_v infer_v neither_o let_v any_o one_o think_v to_o relieve_v himself_o by_o the_o help_n of_o this_o distinction_n viz._n that_o though_o believer_n be_v not_o to_o keep_v the_o whole_a law_n as_o it_o contain_v moral_n and_o ceremonial_n yet_o they_o be_v bind_v to_o observe_v the_o whole_a law_n as_o it_o contain_v moral_n only_o for_o first_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n make_v no_o such_o distinction_n as_o a_o whole_a and_o a_o whole_a law_n neither_o do_v the_o scripture_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n make_v any_o such_o distinction_n for_o when_o it_o speak_v of_o the_o whole_a law_n with_o reference_n to_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n it_o always_o include_v both_o moral_a ceremonial_a and_o judicial_a law_n which_o be_v all_o but_o several_a part_n of_o the_o israelite_n whole_a law_n but_o second_o suppose_v we_o shall_v allow_v the_o distress_a the_o help_n of_o this_o distinction_n viz._n that_o sometime_o moses_n law_n be_v call_v the_o whole_a law_n with_o reference_n to_o the_o moral_a part_n of_o it_o only_o as_o suppose_v it_o so_o in_o this_o 2_o of_o james_n now_o under_o debate_n do_v it_o therefore_o follow_v that_o the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n be_v part_n of_o the_o moral_a law_n be_v not_o the_o imagination_n of_o such_o a_o conceit_n as_o this_o a_o stranger_n to_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o ingenious_a disputant_n who_o abhor_v to_o beg_v that_o question_n he_o can_v prove●_n for_o can_v that_o be_v but_o prove_v which_o be_v so_o often_o take_v for_o grant_v viz._n that_o the_o keep_n of_o the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n be_v a_o moral_a duty_n than_o the_o controversi●●_n be_v at_o a_o end_n for_o doubtless_o all_o believer_n be_v bind_v to_o keep_v the_o whole_a moral_a law_n mr._n tillam_n whereas_o you_o say_v somewhat_o be_v enjoin_v upon_o the_o jew_n that_o be_v not_o upon_o the_o gentile_n i_o question_v if_o this_o be_v not_o the_o apostle_n weakness_n for_o they_o be_v subject_a to_o like_a passion_n for_o at_o another_o time_n a_o less_o matter_n than_o this_o mention_v by_o you_o act_n 21._o be_v count_v hypocrisy_n second_o james_n be_v speak_v of_o the_o royal_a law_n but_o this_o example_n of_o you_o relate_v to_o the_o law_n of_o ceremony_n three_o if_o this_o epistle_n of_o james_n be_v write_v to_o believe_v jew_n than_o there_o be_v one_o law_n for_o the_o believe_a jew_n and_o another_o for_o the_o believe_a gentile_n and_o if_o so_o believe_v jew_n be_v bind_v to_o keep_v the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n and_o believe_v gentile_n be_v not_o and_o how_o can_v this_o be_v without_o confusion_n mr._n ives_n i_o answer_v to_o the_o last_o first_o that_o then_o your_o book_n be_v full_a of_o confusion_n for_o in_o your_o book_n you_o allow_v both_o day_n to_o be_v observe_v to_o wit_n the_o seven_o day_n and_o the_o first_o day_n and_o second_o the_o scripture_n be_v full_a of_o confusion_n if_o you_o say_v true_a for_o the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o of_o the_o jew_n observation_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n and_o the_o gentile_n of_o the_o first_o day_n but_o second_o it_o follow_v not_o that_o the_o believe_a jew_n be_v bind_v by_o my_o confession_n to_o keep_v the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n see_v that_o your_o term_n whole_a law_n mention_v in_o james_n 2._o do_v not_o prove_v the_o sabbath_n to_o be_v there_o intend_v any_o more_o than_o it_o prove_v circumcision_n or_o any_o other_o jewish_a ceremony_n three_o when_o i_o cite_v a_o text_n to_o show_v that_o the_o apostle_n be_v guide_v by_o god_n holy_a spirit_n do_v order_n paul_n be_v a_o jew_n to_o observe_v some_o thing_n which_o they_o strict_o command_v the_o gentile_n not_o to_o observe_v mr._n tillam_n answer_v that_o this_o be_v the_o apostle_n weakness_n by_o which_o it_o appear_v that_o rather_o than_o mr._n tillam_n will_v be_v account_v weak_a he_o will_v brand_v the_o apostle_n paul_n and_o the_o whole_a council_n of_o apostle_n and_o elder_n assemble_v at_o jerusalem_n with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n with_o weakness_n but_o it_o be_v more_o likely_a that_o mr._n tillam_n shall_v be_v weak_a then_o paul_n and_o all_o that_o assembly_n among_o who_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v present_a in_o so_o solemn_a a_o judgement_n and_o whereas_o mr._n tillam_n tell_v we_o that_o peter_n play_v the_o hypocrite_n gal._n 2.13_o in_o that_o he_o compel_v the_o gentile_n to_o live_v as_o do_v the_o jew_n i_o answer_v that_o this_o be_v nothing_o to_o our_o purpose_n first_o because_o the_o text_n cite_v by_o i_o act._n 21._o only_a speak_v of_o jew_n that_o be_v advise_v to_o live_v as_o jew_n and_o of_o gentile_n that_o be_v forbid_v so_o to_o live_v vers_fw-la 25._o but_o the_o text_n in_o gal._n 2._o speak_v of_o gentile_n that_o peter_n do_v compel_v to_o live_v as_o do_v the_o jew_n which_o be_v clear_o another_o thing_n now_o then_o if_o this_o text_n cite_v by_o mr._n tillam_n gal._n 2._o in_o which_o it_o be_v say_v peter_n be_v to_o blame_v for_o compel_v the_o gentile_n to_o live_v as_o do_v the_o jew_n i_o say_v if_o this_o text_n serve_v any_o thing_n to_o the_o present_a controversy_n it_o be_v to_o show_v that_o mr._n tillam_n play_v the_o hypocrite_n in_o that_o he_o be_v as_o he_o call_v himself_o a_o minister_n of_o the_o gentile_n do_v command_v the_o gentile_n to_o live_v as_o do_v the_o jew_n in_o keep_v the_o saturday_n for_o a_o sabbath_n and_o last_o the_o second_o of_o the_o galatian_n blame_v peter_n sharp_o for_o compel_v the_o gentile_n to_o live_v as_o do_v the_o jew_n but_o there_o be_v none_o but_o mr._n tillam_n that_o 〈◊〉_d ever_o hear_v of_o that_o ever_o presume_v to_o blame_v not_o only_a paul_n in_o what_o he_o do_v act._n 21._o but_o also_o the_o whole_a assembly_n of_o apostle_n in_o which_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v present_a a_o piece_n of_o such_o great_a presumption_n that_o scarce_o can_v be_v parallel_v in_o any_o story_n and_o whereas_o he_o say_v the_o instance_n act_v 21._o be_v of_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n and_o not_o of_o the_o royal_a law_n i_o answer_v that_o all_o god_n law_n be_v royal_a but_o second_o though_o the_o instance_n in_o
the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n but_o there_o be_v text_n that_o require_v the_o people_n of_o god_n and_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n to_o observe_v it_o and_o therefore_o by_o consequence_n believe_v gentile_n be_v to_o observe_v it_o if_o they_o be_v god_n people_n and_o servant_n mr._n ives_n sir_n what_o proof_n you_o have_v you_o may_v spare_v it_o till_o we_o be_v agree_v how_o to_o dispute_v however_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n let_v i_o tell_v you_o though_o you_o prove_v the_o people_n of_o god_n and_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n be_v require_v to_o keep_v the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n this_o will_v not_o reach_v our_o difference_n because_o the_o jewe_n be_v call_v both_o god_n servant_n and_o people_n who_o we_o say_v be_v bind_v to_o keep_v it_o but_o this_o do_v not_o prove_v that_o all_o believe_a gentile_n be_v bind_v to_o it_o mr._n tillam_n well_o if_o i_o make_v it_o appear_v by_o those_o or_o the_o like_a consequence_n that_o believer_n in_o gospel-time_n be_v to_o keep_v the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n i_o hope_v it_o will_v suffice_v mr._n ives_n i_o wonder_v that_o mr._n tillam_n shall_v be_v destitute_a of_o plain_a scripture_n to_o prove_v his_o practice_n especial_o consider_v that_o he_o blame_v man_n in_o his_o book_n page_n 96._o for_o set_v up_o ordinance_n by_o consequence_n and_o call_v such_o a_o practice_n philosophy_n and_o vain_a deceit_n of_o man_n whenas_o now_o himself_o have_v no_o plain_a text_n to_o prove_v his_o practice_n by_o mr._n tillam_n i_o think_v god_n have_v a_o design_n to_o promote_v my_o poor_a book_n therefore_o if_o any_o body_n have_v a_o desire_n to_o it_o they_o may_v have_v it_o at_o livewel_n chapman_n in_a popes-head-alley_n or_o at_o mr._n eversden_v in_o paul_n churchyard_n mr._n ives_n sir_n we_o meet_v not_o here_o to_o procure_v customer_n for_o your_o book_n but_o to_o dispute_v and_o therefore_o if_o you_o will_v prove_v your_o practice_n by_o plain_a scripture_n do_v for_o since_o you_o have_v cry_v down_o all_o other_o way_n both_o syllogistical_a and_o consequential_a i_o see_v no_o reason_n why_o you_o shall_v not_o keep_v to_o your_o own_o rule_n prescribe_v by_o yourself_o in_o your_o book_n however_o that_o we_o may_v not_o spend_v time_n to_o no_o purpose_n i_o shall_v be_v content_a so_o you_o prove_v the_o proposition_n take_v what_o way_n you_o will_v provide_v that_o you_o prove_v either_o the_o antecedent_n or_o the_o consequence_n by_o plain_a text._n mr._n tillam_n well_o then_o i_o will_v proceed_v to_o prove_v that_o all_o believe_a gentile_n be_v bind_v to_o keep_v the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n thus_o if_o that_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o all_o man_n to_o keep_v the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n than_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o every_o believe_a gentile_a but_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o all_o man_n to_o keep_v the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n ergo_fw-la it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o every_o believe_a gentile_a to_o keep_v the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n it_o be_v worthy_a observation_n that_o though_o mr._n tillam_n have_v profane_v the_o rule_n of_o syllogistical_a disputation_n and_o cry_v down_o all_o consequential_a way_n of_o prove_v the_o

before_o profane_v by_o make_v use_n of_o it_o to_o prove_v his_o practice_n though_o he_o have_v before_o cry_v it_o down_o as_o profane_v mr._n ives_n sir_n you_o argue_v thus_o viz._n if_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o all_o to_o keep_v the_o seventh-day_n than_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o all_o believe_a gentile_n but_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o all_o man_n etc._n etc._n ergo._n i_o deny_v

with_o he_o mr._n ives_n i_o come_v now_o to_o another_o argument_n which_o take_v as_o follow_v if_o believe_v gentile_n by_o a_o apostolical_a toleration_n may_v esteem_v one_o day_n above_o

a_o certain_a portion_n of_o the_o manna_n every_o day_n etc._n etc._n to_o this_o i_o answer_v first_o that_o it_o do_v not_o follow_v that_o because_o a_o general_a word_n be_v restrain_v in_o

which_o they_o be_v to_o gather_v manna_n and_o express_o command_v the_o rest_v upon_o the_o seventh-day_n but_o in_o the_o 14_o of_o the_o rom._n neither_o god_n nor_o the_o apostle_n put_v any_o

they_o when_o god_n do_v not_o but_o than_o say_v mr._n tillam_n if_o you_o do_v not_o restrain_v this_o word_n every_o day_n than_o you_o do_v overthrow_v the_o keep_n of_o any_o day_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o we_o may_v very_o easy_o deliver_v ourselves_o out_o of_o the_o hand_n of_o this_o absurdity_n if_o that_o be_v the_o business_n in_o question_n as_o for_o instance_n we_o have_v

which_o indeed_o be_v the_o scope_n of_o the_o apostle_n in_o
it_o no_o breach_n of_o a_o law_n and_o so_o likewise_o upon_o the_o sabbath-day_n a_o man_n may_v lead_v a_o ox_n or_o a_o ass_n to_o water_v and_o not_o break_v it_o though_o it_o be_v a_o moral_a
