that_o with_o a_o true_a hart_n be_v willing_a to_o be_v teach_v and_o to_o confound_v also_o and_o condemn_v and_o leave_v without_o excuse_n before_o god_n judgement_n seat_n such_o as_o will_v

but_o how_o foolish_a it_o shall_v appear_v easy_o if_o we_o examine_v it_o a_o little_a more_o narrow_o for_o though_o we_o keep_v not_o the_o self_n same_o day_n that_o they_o do_v yet_o we_o have_v the_o same_o commandment_n &_o authority_n for_o our_o day_n that_o that_o they_o have_v for_o they_o therefore_o this_o day_n that_o we_o keep_v be_v call_v the_o lord_n day_n in_o revel_v 1._o

for_o the_o apostle_n by_o the_o authority_n of_o that_o spirit_n which_o always_o assist_v they_o in_o their_o ministerial_a office_n do_v alter_v the_o day_n &_o themselves_o keep_v &_o ordain_v

the_o jew_n and_o be_v of_o no_o less_o force_n now_o then_o before_o then_o second_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o change_n and_o of_o our_o keep_v this_o day_n be_v no_o less_o than_o of_o their_o

that_o a_o great_a &_o more_o excellent_a work_n be_v do_v namely_o the_o redemption_n of_o the_o world_n it_o be_v reason_n that_o the_o great_a work_n shall_v carry_v the_o credit_n of_o the_o day_n they_o rest_v the_o seven_o day_n because_o on_o that_o god_n rest_v from_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n we_o this_o eight_o day_n because_o in_o it_o christ_n rise_v again_o from_o the_o work_n of_o our_o redemption_n which_o be_v a_o great_a work_n cause_v a_o change_n of_o the_o day_n sith_o then_o the_o day_n be_v not_o change_v without_o good_a warrant_n and_o strong_a reason_n that_o alteration_n and_o vary_v of_o the_o day_n detract_v nothing_o from_o the_o truth_n and_o force_n of_o the_o commandment_n and_o whereas_o they_o say_v that_o the_o church_n may_v at_o their_o

do_v allow_v nor_o no_o cause_n occasion_n it_o be_v to_o take_v more_o upon_o they_o than_o be_v fit_a for_o if_o the_o jew_n in_o former_a time_n be_v bind_v to_o keep_v it_o holy_a have_v only_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n to_o think_v upon_o and_o to_o remember_v by_o the_o celebrate_n of_o their_o seven_o day_n then_o how_o much_o more_o be_v we_o bind_v to_o this_o reverence_n and_o a_o great_a since_o beside_o this_o benefit_n of_o our_o make_n we_o have_v a_o great_a of_o our_o redeem_n by_o the_o blood_n and_o death_n of_o christ_n add_v unto_o it_o so_o that_o any_o one_o of_o the_o two_o ought_v to_o sanctify_v it_o more_o rather_o than_o to_o cast_v it_o of_o all_o together_o and_o to_o be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o careful_a to_o give_v this_o day_n whole_o to_o god_n by_o how_o much_o he_o have_v show_v a_o great_a mercy_n to_o we_o so_o that_o we_o shall_v never_o speak_v or_o think_v of_o this_o change_n but_o we_o shall_v also_o call_v to_o mind_n this_o great_a benefit_n which_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o it_o if_o adam_n have_v cause_n to_o spend_v a_o day_n in_o praise_v god_n for_o his_o creation_n than_o we_o have_v great_a cause_n see_v beside_o that_o we_o have_v also_o the_o redemption_n to_o be_v thankful_a for_o and_o if_o this_o be_v a_o good_a argument_n we_o keep_v not_o the_o self_n same_o day_n that_o the_o jew_n do_v therefore_o the_o duty_n be_v abollish_v and_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o keep_v none_o then_o by_o the_o same_o reason_n one_o may_v conclude_v thus_o you_o see_v we_o have_v not_o the_o same_o sacrament_n for_o the_o outward_a seal_n that_o the_o jew_n have_v for_o they_o have_v circumcision_n and_o they_o have_v the_o pascall_n lamb_n what_o tell_v you_o i_o of_o the_o consecrate_v water_n and_o of_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n hallow_v the_o jew_n have_v no_o such_o matter_n since_o these_o sign_n be_v alter_v i_o think_v it_o be_v but_o a_o ceremony_n and_o we_o need_v not_o regard_v baptism_n &_o the_o supper_n this_o be_v no_o good_a argument_n in_o this_o case_n for_o though_o the_o shadow_n be_v other_o yet_o the_o substance_n be_v the_o same_o christ_n jesus_n be_v signify_v by_o our_o bread_n and_o wine_n as_o well_o as_o by_o their_o lamb_n and_o our_o baptism_n be_v the_o sacrament_n of_o regeneration_n as_o well_o as_o their_o circumcision_n therefore_o we_o shall_v not_o despise_v they_o but_o so_o much_o the_o more_o be_v careful_a to_o prepare_v ourselves_o for_o they_o because_o the_o service_n be_v more_o easy_a &_o the_o promise_n more_o lightsome_a if_o then_o it_o will_v not_o hold_v that_o we_o have_v no_o sacrament_n because_o the_o outward_a seal_n be_v alter_v than_o it_o be_v as_o weak_a a_o consequence_n that_o we_o have_v no_o seven_o day_n to_o be_v sanctify_v because_o the_o day_n be_v alter_v and_o we_o keep_v not_o the_o same_o that_o they_o do_v so_o that_o no_o proof_n can_v be_v gather_v from_o the_o vary_a of_o the_o day_n that_o the_o duty_n be_v abolish_v because_o the_o authority_n be_v as_o strong_a the_o reason_n as_o good_a and_o the_o same_o reason_n do_v not_o hold_v in_o other_o thing_n again_o they_o object_n that_o to_o a_o christian_n every_o day_n be_v a_o sabbath_n day_n and_o therefore_o we_o shall_v not_o restrain_v it_o to_o one_o day_n more_o than_o another_o but_o the_o answer_n to_o this_o be_v that_o it_o be_v most_o false_a for_o god_n do_v not_o require_v neither_o be_v a_o christian_n able_a to_o keep_v every_o day_n a_o sabbath_n day_n so_o long_o as_o they_o remain_v on_o earth_n indeed_o in_o heaven_n he_o shall_v keep_v a_o continual_a sabbath_n unto_o the_o lord_n but_o now_o so_o long_o as_o we_o live_v there_o be_v as_o much_o difference_n betwixt_o the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o otheir_o day_n as_o betwixt_o the_o consecrate_v bread_n we_o receive_v at_o the_o lord_n table_n and_o the_o common_a bread_n we_o receive_v at_o our_o own_o table_n this_o be_v true_a that_o every_o one_o must_v serve_v god_n on_o the_o six_o day_n and_o all_o his_o life_n long_o but_o on_o the_o seven_o day_n we_o must_v not_o only_o serve_v god_n
oppress_v he_o will_v not_o suffer_v that_o his_o sacred_a name_n shall_v be_v thus_o wicked_o abuse_v to_o be_v make_v a_o shelter_n for_o lie_n and_o slander_n but_o when_o the_o good_a time_n come_v he_o will_v let_v the_o world_n see_v how_o vild_o and_o shameful_o they_o deal_v and_o though_o now_o whilst_o god_n hold_v his_o peace_n they_o flatter_v themselves_o and_o care_v not_o a_o jot_n to_o profane_v his_o name_n so_o they_o may_v effect_v their_o malicious_a purpose_n and_o matter_n go_v on_o their_o side_n yet_o god_n will_v have_v a_o care_n that_o their_o wickedness_n

in_o this_o example_n which_o god_n have_v propose_v we_o may_v consider_v something_o of_o the_o power_n of_o god_n in_o the_o creation_n and_o in_o that_o he_o spend_v no_o long_a time_n than_o six_o day_n in_o create_v the_o whole_a world_n we_o must_v understand_v by_o this_o doctrine_n that_o god_n be_v able_a to_o bring_v to_o pass_v great_a matter_n in_o a_o short_a time_n and_o by_o

for_o he_o can_v have_v do_v it_o with_o as_o much_o ease_n in_o a_o hour_n yea_o in_o a_o minute_n as_o in_o these_o six_o day_n but_o he_o have_v divide_v the_o whole_a into_o six_o day_n work_n because_o we_o may_v have_v a_o fit_a occasion_n and_o be_v better_o move_v to_o consider_v of_o every_o one_o for_o if_o he_o have_v fold_v up_o altogether_o as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o compass_n of_o a_o hour_n than_o it_o have_v not_o be_v so_o fit_a and_o easy_a for_o our_o meditation_n in_o this_o then_o we_o general_o see_v what_o wonderful_a work_n &_o great_a thing_n god_n can_v bring_v to_o

the_o people_n of_o god_n say_v in_o the_o psalm_n the_o sword_n and_o bow_n do_v not_o bring_v they_o into_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n but_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o his_o promise_n make_v to_o

his_o gift_n for_o else_o they_o can_v not_o have_v stand_v before_o those_o huge_a and_o waste_a giant_n and_o he_o say_v they_o shall_v have_v it_o still_o so_o that_o god_n both_o put_v and_o keep_v man_n in_o possession_n for_o he_o give_v they_o power_n and_o then_o giant_n can_v not_o keep_v they_o out_o so_o in_o the_o psal_n the_o earth_n be_v the_o lord_n and_o he_o give_v a_o reason_n he_o have_v make_v it_o and_o found_v it_o on_o the_o water_n all_o man_n in_o the_o world_n can_v make_v nothing_o be_v when_o be_v it_o make_v they_o have_v no_o power_n to_o preserve_v

yet_o he_o never_o put_v himself_o out_o but_o he_o will_v have_v the_o dispose_n of_o all_o no_o man_n have_v the_o fee_n simple_a of_o his_o life_n the_o best_a tenure_n be_v tenant_n at_o will_n and_o if_o god_n call_v the_o soul_n it_o must_v not_o take_v day_n with_o he_o sith_o then_o the_o earth_n be_v the_o lord_n and_o he_o be_v the_o right_a owner_n of_o it_o this_o use_n we_o must_v make_v of_o it_o thankful_o to_o acknowledge_v whence_o we_o receive_v all_o these_o thing_n that_o we_o enjoy_v and_o man_n will_v say_v why_o who_o be_v so_o simple_a but_o he_o know_v and_o

two_o thing_n will_v always_o follow_v first_o such_o a_o one_o so_o far_o as_o he_o be_v thus_o persuade_v will_v never_o be_v proud_a for_o he_o can_v say_v to_o himself_o what_o have_v thou_o that_o thou_o have_v not_o receive_v and_o than_o he_o will_v be_v the_o more_o humble_a rather_o when_o he_o know_v that_o he_o be_v more_o indebt_v to_o god_n and_o have_v a_o great_a reckon_n to_o

have_v it_o from_o god_n will_v use_v that_o he_o have_v to_o god_n glory_n else_o if_o one_o will_v say_v why_o i_o know_v that_o what_o need_v you_o tell_v i_o that_o i_o have_v my_o wealth_n from_o god_n i_o know_v it_o well_o enough_o but_o how_o do_v you_o use_v it_o to_o serve_v your_o own_o lust_n so_o that_o you_o think_v it_o nothing_o to_o bestow_v twenty_o pound_n upon_o your_o filthy_a

be_v the_o lord_n though_o he_o for_o a_o while_n have_v permit_v the_o use_n of_o it_o to_o the_o son_n of_o man_n therefore_o let_v they_o learn_v to_o use_v god_n as_o a_o landlord_n &_o let_v
