member_n of_o every_o society_n shall_v agree_v in_o some_o decent_a rite_n and_o worship_n god_n in_o a_o uniform_a way_n as_o the_o jew_n do_v and_o because_o this_o can_v be_v without_o law_n to_o direct_v and_o oblige_v it_o seem_v no_o less_o agreeable_a to_o common_a sense_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v such_o law_n as_o may_v direct_v and_o oblige_v in_o this_o case_n as_o the_o jew_n have_v and_o because_o law_n signify_v nothing_o but_o to_o make_v disorderly_a person_n despise_v and_o laugh_v at_o their_o lawmakers_n unless_o they_o be_v put_v in_o execution_n and_o because_o they_o can_v be_v execute_v without_o power_n therefore_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o there_o shall_v be_v magistrate_n invest_v with_o sufficient_a power_n for_o that_o work_n as_o there_o be_v among_o the_o jew_n and_o all_o these_o thing_n be_v so_o righteous_a so_o reasonable_a in_o themselves_o and_o so_o agreeable_a to_o the_o universal_a sense_n of_o mankind_n that_o all_o nation_n have_v consent_v to_o they_o and_o reduce_v they_o to_o practice_n thus_o isocrates_n that_o wise_a and_o learned_a athenian_a lawyer_n in_o his_o precept_n to_o demonicus_n among_o other_o important_a advice_n give_v he_o this_o that_o he_o shall_v worship_v god_n always_o but_o especial_o in_o public_a with_o the_o congregation_n and_o he_o give_v this_o reason_n of_o the_o latter_a 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d for_o by_o pay_v your_o attendance_n at_o the_o public_a worship_n you_o will_v at_o once_o say_v he_o both_o pay_v your_o duty_n to_o the_o god_n and_o show_v yourself_o obsequious_a to_o the_o law_n of_o your_o country_n and_o this_o show_v that_o among_o the_o athenian_n the_o ceremonial_a law_n of_o their_o religious_a worship_n be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o civil_a law_n of_o the_o commonwealth_n and_o so_o it_o be_v with_o the_o roman_n and_o i_o conceive_v it_o be_v no_o difficult_a task_n to_o make_v the_o same_o appear_v to_o have_v be_v the_o practice_n of_o most_o or_o all_o other_o nation_n concern_v who_o we_o have_v any_o record_n and_o sure_o there_o be_v much_o of_o conclude_v in_o the_o argument_n of_o universal_a consent_n but_o it_o may_v seem_v more_o material_a to_o the_o present_a case_n as_o it_o concern_v we_o that_o when_o the_o empire_n become_v christian_n the_o ceremonial_a law_n or_o the_o church_n become_v a_o part_n of_o the_o law_n imperial_a till_o the_o pope_n of_o rome_n by_o their_o artifice_n and_o usurpation_n make_v the_o imperial_a truckle_n under_o the_o pontificial_a law_n but_o in_o this_o kingdom_n of_o england_n thing_n be_v put_v into_o the_o ancient_a course_n again_o and_o our_o ceremonial_a law_n be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o civil_a or_o common_a law_n of_o our_o nation_n and_o this_o seem_v to_o i_o much_o more_o agreeable_a to_o the_o christian_a doctrine_n than_o what_o the_o disciple_n of_o rome_n on_o the_o one_o hand_n and_o those_o of_o geneva_n on_o the_o other_o do_v aim_n at_o and_o contend_v for_o in_o their_o write_n and_o have_v do_v some_o of_o they_o with_o their_o arm_n for_o both_o these_o party_n upon_o the_o account_n of_o their_o authority_n in_o spiritual_a thing_n or_o in_o order_n to_o spiritual_a thing_n as_o some_o of_o they_o cunning_o express_v it_o will_v engross_v all_o earthly_a power_n and_o this_o be_v a_o charge_n which_o i_o be_o sure_a might_n without_o much_o difficulty_n be_v make_v good_a against_o both_o these_o party_n if_o it_o have_v not_o by_o diverse_a learned_a pen_n be_v sufficient_o do_v already_o but_o this_o can_v never_o be_v object_v against_o the_o clergy_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n true_o so_o call_v but_o to_o return_v i_o think_v it_o do_v appear_v that_o what_o be_v enjoin_v by_o moses_n concern_v the_o worship_n of_o god_n in_o general_a term_n namely_o that_o god_n shall_v be_v worship_v with_o a_o external_a service_n and_o that_o this_o shall_v be_v perform_v in_o a_o uniform_a way_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v law_n to_o direct_v and_o oblige_v in_o this_o matter_n and_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v power_n to_o execute_v such_o law_n i_o think_v i_o say_v it_o do_v appear_v that_o all_o this_o in_o general_n be_v of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o that_o law_n which_o be_v establish_v by_o the_o gospel_n but_o then_o whatsoever_o in_o the_o particular_a matter_n and_o form_n of_o the_o mosaic_a worship_n be_v righteous_a in_o opposition_n to_o the_o letter_n whatsoever_o be_v substantial_a in_o opposition_n to_o little_a accidental_a circumstance_n whatsoever_o be_v useful_a for_o all_o mankind_n and_o not_o proper_a to_o the_o present_a state_n and_o condition_n of_o the_o jew_n only_o be_v establish_v by_o christ_n in_o specie_fw-la thus_o prayer_n in_o all_o its_o part_n of_o confession_n petition_n and_o thanksgiving_n be_v a_o part_n of_o their_o external_a worship_n and_o the_o tongue_n be_v so_o apt_a and_o ready_a a_o instrument_n to_o be_v use_v in_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n that_o all_o nation_n by_o the_o direction_n of_o their_o own_o reason_n have_v use_v it_o as_o well_o as_o the_o jew_n and_o this_o duty_n be_v always_o useful_a fit_a and_o good_a for_o all_o people_n of_o all_o age_n and_o all_o nation_n our_o saviour_n have_v make_v it_o of_o as_o large_a extent_n as_o his_o religion_n which_o be_v design_v to_o be_v the_o religion_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n and_o which_o we_o hope_v will_v one_o day_n be_v so_o but_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o mosaic_a law_n fall_v into_o disuse_n of_o themselves_o for_o they_o be_v only_o intend_v to_o be_v use_v for_o a_o time_n as_o type_n and_o shadow_n of_o that_o great_a sacrifice_n which_o christ_n be_v to_o offer_v for_o the_o whole_a world_n and_o when_o that_o be_v offer_v they_o have_v their_o end_n and_o accomplishment_n and_o be_v therefore_o no_o long_o of_o any_o use_n to_o conclude_v this_o point_n then_o i_o say_v our_o saviour_n have_v establish_v the_o righteousness_n and_o substance_n of_o the_o ritual_a law_n of_o moses_n 1._o by_o enjoin_v some_o thing_n that_o be_v command_v by_o that_o 2._o by_o institute_v some_o other_o as_o baptism_n and_o the_o euch●…ist_n which_o be_v derive_v from_o that_o too_o 3._o by_o put_v it_o into_o the_o power_n of_o his_o apostle_n and_o their_o successor_n to_o direct_v such_o other_o form_n and_o ceremony_n of_o outward_a worship_n as_o they_o shall_v see_v most_o conduce_v to_o the_o great_a end_n of_o all_o religion_n i._n e._n the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o the_o good_a of_o man_n at_o the_o time_n and_o in_o the_o place_n where_o they_o shall_v be_v concern_v and_o 4._o by_o invest_v the_o secular_a christian_a magistrate_n with_o power_n to_o confirm_v such_o direction_n by_o the_o sanction_n of_o such_o temporal_a penalty_n as_o they_o shall_v see_v fit_a in_o order_n to_o the_o same_o ends._n and_o if_o we_o consider_v that_o in_o the_o time_n of_o king_n david_n and_o solomon_n when_o certain_o the_o public_a worship_n of_o god_n be_v in_o its_o high_a glory_n among_o the_o jew_n as_o well_o as_o in_o after_o age_n we_o find_v many_o thing_n practise_v in_o their_o divine_a worship_n which_o seem_v to_o have_v no_o warrant_n at_o all_o from_o any_o express_a command_n in_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n which_o yet_o appear_v to_o have_v be_v very_o acceptable_a to_o god_n i_o say_v if_o we_o consider_v this_o and_o the_o consequent_a of_o it_o which_o be_v that_o even_o in_o the_o jewish_a oeconomy_n many_o thing_n pertain_v to_o the_o outward_a worship_n of_o god_n be_v leave_v to_o be_v dispose_v and_o order_v by_o the_o discretion_n of_o those_o that_o be_v to_o govern_v we_o shall_v have_v no_o reason_n to_o wonder_v that_o christ_n have_v leave_v it_o in_o the_o power_n of_o christian_a governor_n to_o appoint_v what_o they_o shall_v see_v expedient_a decent_a and_o orderly_o in_o the_o external_a worship_n who_o have_v so_o much_o great_a light_n from_o his_o revelation_n to_o guide_v they_o in_o it_o and_o so_o i_o come_v to_o show_v 2._o how_o the_o christian_a religion_n and_o the_o apostle_n in_o my_o text_n and_o all_o other_o preacher_n of_o the_o true_a doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n do_v by_o the_o authority_n of_o that_o and_o its_o author_n establish_v the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o mosaic_a law_n which_o be_v design_v to_o govern_v the_o outward_a carriage_n of_o man_n towards_o one_o another_o now_o it_o be_v of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o this_o law_n that_o we_o shall_v do_v by_o all_o man_n in_o all_o thing_n and_o all_o circumstance_n as_o honest_o as_o faithful_o and_o as_o fair_o as_o we_o will_v be_v do_v by_o ourselves_o it_o be_v of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o it_o that_o they_o who_o do_v any_o thing_n contrary_a to_o that_o royal_a law_n as_o st._n james_n call_v it_o shall_v be_v punish_v according_a to_o
