in these they are lawful but the moral obseruing of the Sabbath is perpetuall bindeth vs as well as the Iewes as all the other of the â—enne Commandements also doe Q. How may this Commandement bee diuided A. First into the Commandement it selfe secondly reasons inforcing obedience to it Q. What are the duties commanded and sinnes forbidden A. First there is commanded to rest secondly to performe holy duties First 1 To rest to rest from our labours vpon that day the better to attend vpon the other duties commanded as to rest from the workes and labours of our honest and lawfull callings Leuit. 23.3 Exod 34.21 and 31.5 as the husbandmans plowing sowing reaping binding turning or bringing home his corne also from faires chafferings bargaines Neh. 13.15.16.17.19 and from ordinary and vnnecessary iournies Exod. 16.29 yet we must know that in case of necessity and charity a man may doe some of these workes that bee seruile and not breake the Sabbath Mat. 12.1.5.11 Luk. 14.5 Mark 2.27 first iournies to the Prophets and places appointed for Gods seruice are lawfull on this day 2 King 4.23 Psal 84.7 secondly to procure some speciall and necessary good to others so Midwiues and Physitians may trauell to women and them that be sicke and so to help a beast out of a pit Luke 14.15 to giue them meate and water and to prouide meate and drinke Matth. 12.1 but these must be done not as workeâ— of our calling simply but as workes of charity we must know also that wanton Dancings Drinkings Church-ales Stage-plaies great feasts in pampering the flesh hinder the performance of the duties of the Sabbath more then ordinary labour Concerning solemne and sumptuous feasts such as are made at marriages or admitting of men into their ciuill offices although they bee lawfull in themselues yet not on the Sabbath day being dangerous and vnfit to be vsed both because they detaine many from the assemblies and hinder almost all the priuate exercises and duties of the Sabbath In this case Dauids example is worthy of consideration 1 Chro. 11.18.19 so we may say of the meates in those pompous prepaâ—ations for they be not without the hazard of mens soules We must also know that in the thoughts and motions of our hearts the Sabbath is to be kept for the law is spirituall Rom. 7. and bindeth the spirit and soule of a man as well as his body as in all the rest of the Commandements where the action is forbidden the affection is forbidden and that which is vnlawfull to be spoken is vnlawfull to bee thought on this day as discoursing of worldly matters vnnecesâ—arily either in table talke or otherwise is forbidden so the thoughts of thâ— heart although neuer vttered God requireth the whole man Thou shâ—lt serue the Lord thy God with all thy thoâ—ght The sinnes foâ—bidden against the reâ—â— required on the Sâ—bbath bee to doâ— workes or speake words or thinkâ— thoughts about the affaires of this life further then necessity in charity requires 2 Holy duties The second thing commanded iâ— performing holy exercises whereby thâ— day may be sanctified as First preparation which is a sanctifying of our selues and of those that belong to vs to the performing of the workes of the Sabbath by praying to GOD and taking account of our seuerall sinnes and considering the end of the Sabbath with the publike and priuate exercises of the same Exod. 32.5.6 in which respect we rise something the earlier that wee may haue time for this Mark 1.35.39 The sinne forbidden is to omit this preparation to bestow the time about other matters as many that can scarcely get out of the looking-glasse by dinner-time but if they bee ready when the bell ringeth they thinke it well secondly to sleepe out the time Secondly to ioyne with the publike assembly to shew that wee are of the assembly of the Saints there to be ready at the ordinary houres of meeting and to continue from the beginning to the end Act. 20 7. and 13.15 2 King 4.22.23 Ezek. 46.10 The sinne is to refuse the assembly of the Saints and to come negligently to come in the fore-noone and neglect the after-noone as if the whole day were not to be sanctified Thirdly we are commanded to ioyne with the assembly in all the holy duties there to be done as in praiers supplications thanksgiuings of the Church 2 Tim. 2.2.4 The sinne is to separate our selues in priuate prayer from the common affection and prayer wee should haue with the Church Moreouer wee are commanded to heare reuerently and attentiuely the Word Read and Preached 2 King 4.22 Act. 13.15.16 and 20.7 The sinne is to reade or pray as some bring bookes for that purpose while the Minister is in Preaching whereas they should draw neere to heare secondly to sleepe thirdly to talke fourthly to content themselues with the Word read liuing in such Parishes where the Minister cannot Preach or where there is no Preaching long time together and in a manner a famine of the Word and not to seeke those places where it is preached Another duty that wee are to ioyne with the people of God in is to receiue the Sacraments Act. 20.7 another is to gather or giue to the publike gathering for the poore 1 Cor. 16.1 The sinne is to neglect these duties Fourthly wee are bound to priuate duties on the Sabbath that wee may reape profit of the publike as first to conferre of the Word wee haue heard and to meditate of it to labour the conscience and fruit of it in our hearts Mal. 3.16 Psal 119.11.13.14.15 herein the gouernour of the family may profitably to be imployed in calling his family together to require what they haue learned and to help them to further vnderstanding of it and to vrge the practice of it in their life Gen. 18.18 Secondly singing of Psalmes Ephes 5.19 Col. 3.16 Thirdly meditation of the workes of God as of the Creation Redemption preseruation Psal 92. Fourthly admonishing those that fall and exhorting one another Fiftly reconciling such as be at variance Sixtly visiting the sicke The sinnes be to omit these duties 5 Lastly there is commanded that we should account the sabbath a delight and our chiefe ioy our springs being in it Esay 58.13 Therefore although a man exercise both his thoughts and speech in holy duties and yet haue no cheerfulnesse in them but accompteth them wearinesse it is his sinne Q.
