the_o 8_o day_n on_o the_o saturday_n or_o on_o the_o sunday_n this_o point_n never_o come_v into_o their_o mind_n to_o study_v it_o well_o then_o if_o it_o have_v not_o be_v study_v by_o the_o

the_o say_n of_o these_o man_n against_o this_o point_n of_o the_o lord_n sabbath_n be_v to_o be_v regard_v when_o as_o it_o be_v a_o point_n which_o never_o so_o much_o as_o come_v in_o to_o their_o

verdict_n of_o our_o minister_n in_o this_o point_n because_o it_o want_v one_o of_o the_o property_n of_o a_o warrantable_a testimony_n to_o wit_n the_o use_n of_o their_o wisdom_n &_o learning_n &_o hereby_o it_o appear_v also_o upon_o what_o poor_a ground_n our_o common_a people_n have_v hither_o to_o go_v in_o rely_v their_o soul_n in_o this_o matter_n upon_o their_o minister_n zeal_n

and_o so_o i_o come_v to_o the_o 3d_o property_n namely_o good_a will_n this_o property_n of_o a_o warrantable_a testimony_n our_o minister_n want_v for_o they_o have_v no_o good_a will_n at_o all_o to_o the_o cause_n but_o all_o evil_a will_n that_o may_v be_v witness_v all_o their_o word_n and_o deed_n in_o &_o about_o this_o matter_n if_o a_o man_n have_v a_o cause_n to_o be_v try_v before_o

will_n be_v not_o esteem_v a_o fit_a man_n to_o determine_v of_o a_o controversy_n now_o that_o there_o be_v cause_n for_o we_o to_o suspect_v most_o minister_n to_o have_v evil_a will_n to_o this_o cause_n of_o god_n sabbath_n appear_v 1._o by_o their_o word_n and_o deed_n to_o the_o contrary_a among_o other_o let_v those_o many_o slander_n &_o reproachful_a speech_n and_o hard_a usage_n which_o they_o have_v use_v against_o i_o for_o defend_v this_o cause_n of_o god_n let_v these_o i_o say_v testify_v whither_o they_o be_v friend_n or_o enemy_n to_o the_o cause_n 2._o there_o be_v great_a cause_n to_o suspect_v they_o will_v be_v no_o friend_n to_o the_o cause_n because_o all_o their_o life_n long_o hitherto_o they_o have_v teach_v the_o people_n to_o the_o contrary_a to_o wit_n that_o

history_n of_o the_o church_n for_o saturday_n the_o seven_o day_n thus_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o sabbath_n day_n be_v a_o proper_a name_n signify_v our_o saturday_n and_o saturday_n then_o be_v the_o day_n which_o god_n mean_v and_o speak_v of_o in_o those_o word_n remember_v the_o sabbath_n day_n second_o we_o may_v know_v that_o saturday_n be_v the_o day_n which_o god_n mean_v by_o these_o word_n sabbath_n day_n because_o god_n have_v in_o his_o 4_o come_v plain_o deciphr_v out_o the_o day_n which_o he_o call_v sabbath_n day_n and_o that_o in_o these_o word_n but_o the_o seven_o day_n be_v the_o sabbath_n etc._n etc._n and_o see_v exod._n 35.2_o and_o exod._n 23.12_o leu._n 23.3_o so_o then_o the_o seven_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v the_o very_a day_n which_o god_n understand_v

that_o our_o saviour_n be_v crucify_v on_o good_a friday_n and_o that_o he_o lie_v in_o his_o grave_n all_o our_o saturday_n be_v the_o jew_n sabbath_n day_n and_o rise_v on_o our_o sunday_n whereby_o

c_o in_o which_o word_n they_o confess_v that_o saturday_n be_v the_o sabbath_n day_n mention_v in_o the_o four_o come_v what_o need_v of_o further_a proof_n have_v find_v out_o particular_o which_o be_v the_o day_n of_o the_o week_n to_o which_o the_o four_o come_v have_v respect_n namely_o saturday_n now_o we_o may_v be_v bold_a to_o make_v a_o more_o particular_a description_n of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o thus_o it_o may_v be_v desribe_v the_o sabbath_n day_n be_v that_o sacred_a time_n call_v saturday_n count_v the_o seven_o day_n from_o the_o creation_n which_o be_v sanctify_v and_o hollow_v by_o god_n and_o appoint_v to_o be_v sanctisied_a by_o man_n i_o call_v it_o a_o sacred_a time_n and_o that_o in_o a_o double_a respect_n 1._o by_o destination_n 2._o by_o

and_o make_v it_o a_o holy_a day_n and_o this_o he_o do_v two_o way_n 1._o by_o his_o personal_a and_o exemplary_a rest_n upon_o this_o day_n and_o the_o seven_o day_n he_o rest_v from_o all_o his_o

his_o four_o come_v how_o dangerous_a then_o be_v the_o case_n of_o such_o minister_n as_o have_v by_o their_o vain_a distinctiones_fw-la and_o fond_a objection_n not_o only_o abolish_v the_o lord_n

and_o that_o partly_o from_o their_o distinction_n and_o partly_o from_o their_o objection_n first_o for_o their_o distinction_n they_o do_v distinguish_v of_o the_o time_n in_o the_o four_o come_v and_o of_o the_o duty_n of_o rest_n and_o holiness_n in_o the_o time_n now_o for_o the_o time_n the_o seven_o day_n and_o the_o sabbath_n day_n these_o be_v jewish_a out_o they_o ceremonial_a and_o abolish_v but_o the_o duty_n in_o the_o time_n they_o only_o be_v moral_a and_o perpetual_a and_o to_o this_o head_n come_v all_o their_o other_o distinction_n and_o from_o hence_o they_o be_v derive_v upon_o this_o distinction_n thus_o i_o argue_v if_o that_o time_n that_o be_v all_o that_o time_n which_o be_v command_v to_o the_o jew_n and_o comprise_v in_o these_o word_n the_o seven_o

that_o be_v all_o that_o time_n once_o command_v to_o the_o jew_n and_o comprise_v in_o these_o word_n the_o seven_o day_n and_o the_o sabbath_n day_n be_v a_o ceremony_n and_o abolish_v as_o jew_n sh_n therefore_o there_o be_v no_o time_n leave_v in_o the_o four_o come_v for_o any_o sabbath_n day_n and_o by_o consequence_n no_o four_o come_v for_o the_o minor_a they_o can_v deny_v it_o for_o it_o be_v a_o limb_n of_o their_o own_o distinction_n for_o they_o say_v the_o seven_o day_n be_v abolish_v and_o the_o sabbath_n day_n to_o wit_n that_o ancient_a sabbath_n day_n command_v to_o the_o

be_v no_o time_n leave_v in_o the_o garden_n why_o so_o it_o be_v in_o our_o case_n take_v away_o that_o time_n that_o be_v command_v and_o there_o be_v no_o time_n that_o be_v no_o command_v time_n thus_o you_o see_v that_o by_o their_o abolish_n of_o that_o very_a day_n and_o time_n which_o the_o jew_n keep_v to_o wit_n that_o sabbath_n day_n and_o that_o seven_o day_n they_o have_v abolish_v
