day_n be_v but_o the_o command_n of_o a_o mortal_a die_a man_n my_o esteem_n be_v no_o more_o for_o it_o than_o for_o another_o day_n but_o when_o i_o believe_v and_o be_o persuade_v and_o consider_v that_o it_o be_v the_o command_n of_o the_o god_n that_o make_v i_o the_o god_n that_o redeem_v i_o and_o the_o god_n that_o shall_v short_o come_v to_o judge_v i_o o_o how_o will_v this_o raise_v my_o mind_n and_o enliven_v my_o affection_n and_o check_v my_o floath_n and_o quicken_v my_o zeal_n and_o awaken_v my_o conscience_n to_o a_o sense_n and_o conscionable_a performance_n of_o my_o duty_n and_o therefore_o i_o will_v willing_o fix_v this_o as_o a_o great_a truth_n and_o immovable_a principle_n in_o your_o mind_n that_o to_o observe_v and_o keep_v this_o day_n in_o your_o duty_n and_o that_o in_o obedience_n to_o the_o command_n of_o god_n and_o here_o the_o better_a to_o make_v way_n to_o what_o i_o intend_v i_o must_v premise_v these_o two_o thing_n 1._o that_o the_o four_o commandment_n be_v moral_a i._n e._n of_o perpetual_a obligation_n as_o to_o the_o substance_n of_o it_o 2._o that_o our_o saviour_n christ_n who_o be_v lord_n of_o the_o sabbath_n have_v power_n to_o make_v what_o alteration_n he_o please_v as_o to_o the_o ceremonial_a part_n of_o it_o 1._o that_o the_o four_o commandment_n be_v moral_a i._n e._n of_o perpetual_a obligation_n as_o to_o the_o substance_n of_o it_o though_o ceremonial_a for_o circumstance_n if_o not_o then_o there_o be_v but_o nine_o commandment_n under_o the_o gospel_n for_o what_o be_v pure_o ceremonial_a relate_n to_o the_o jewish_a oeconomy_n be_v abolish_v and_o in_o vain_a be_v we_o teach_v to_o pray_v after_o the_o rehearsal_n of_o this_o commandment_n lord_n have_v mercy_n we_o and_o incline_v our_o heart_n to_o keep_v this_o law_n to_o keep_v some_o time_n holy_a the_o to_o lord_n for_o his_o solemn_a service_n be_v absolute_o moral_a which_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n prompt_v man_n to_o now_o it_o be_v plain_a a_o sabbath_n god_n must_v have_v by_o the_o perpetual_a ordinance_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n remember_v to_o keep_v holy_a the_o sabbath_n day_n i.e._n that_o day_n which_o for_o the_o time_n be_v god_n have_v mark_v out_o and_o appoint_v for_o his_o own_o and_o he_o have_v declare_v his_o will_n concern_v the_o limitation_n of_o it_o six_o day_n shall_v thou_o labour_v and_o do_v all_o that_o thou_o have_v to_o do_v but_o the_o seven_o be_v the_o sabbath_n the_o seven_o from_o the_o creation_n be_v enjoin_v to_o be_v keep_v by_o the_o jew_n in_o remembrance_n of_o the_o creation_n according_a to_o god_n own_o example_n in_o six_o day_n the_o lord_n make_v heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o rest_v the_o seven_o day_n which_o be_v observe_v before_o the_o give_n of_o the_o law_n on_o sinai_n well_o but_o christian_n observe_v not_o this_o seven_o day_n which_o the_o jew_n do_v do_v they_o then_o break_v the_o commandment_n god_n forbid_v no_o they_o do_v not_o break_v the_o commandment_n and_o this_o will_v appear_v by_o the_o second_o thing_n which_o i_o have_v to_o premise_v viz._n 2._o that_o our_o saviour_n christ_n who_o be_v lord_n of_o the_o sabbath_n have_v power_n to_o make_v what_o alteration_n he_o please_v as_o to_o the_o ceremonial_a part_n of_o the_o commandment_n our_o saviour_n tell_v the_o jew_n st._n mark_v 2.28_o that_o the_o son_n of_o man_n be_v lord_n of_o the_o sabbath_n he_o be_v so_o indeed_o for_o it_o be_v he_o that_o make_v the_o world_n and_o give_v the_o law_n on_o sinai_n and_o he_o show_v the_o true_a use_n of_o the_o sabbath_n that_o it_o be_v make_v for_o man_n and_o not_o man_n for_o the_o sabbath_n and_o as_o lord_n of_o it_o he_o have_v power_n to_o make_v what_o alteration_n he_o please_v now_o the_o alteration_n he_o make_v be_v about_o the_o circumstance_n of_o time_n not_o as_o to_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o commandment_n one_o day_n in_o seven_o but_o as_o to_o the_o circumstance_n of_o time_n i._n e._n which_o day_n in_o seven_o he_o please_v now_o if_o i_o can_v prove_v to_o you_o that_o our_o saviour_n christ_n alter_v the_o circumstance_n of_o time_n and_o that_o that_o time_n which_o the_o christian_n now_o observe_v be_v that_o alteration_n i_o hope_v you_o will_v conclude_v with_o i_o that_o the_o observation_n of_o the_o christian_a sabbath_n be_v no_o breach_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n but_o a_o indispensable_a duty_n incumbent_a upon_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n and_o that_o it_o be_v so_o will_v appear_v by_o these_o argument_n 1._o the_o first_o i_o shall_v draw_v from_o the_o immediate_a authority_n of_o our_o saviour_n who_o to_o let_v the_o world_n know_v that_o his_o pleasure_n be_v to_o translate_v the_o jewish_a sabbath_n which_o be_v saturday_n the_o seven_o from_o the_o creation_n to_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v please_v first_o to_o honour_v this_o day_n with_o his_o resurrection_n from_o the_o dead_a which_o be_v on_o
