to_o it_o it_o may_v still_o remain_v a_o sabbath_n as_o it_o be_v original_o at_o its_o prime_a institution_n it_o may_v remain_v still_o as_o a_o sacred_a time_n for_o god_n worship_n &_o as_o a_o

all_o this_o it_o may_v remain_v still_o as_o a_o sacred_a day_n and_o time_n for_o god_n worship_n as_o a_o day_n to_o keep_v memory_n of_o the_o creation_n still_o as_o a_o fit_a time_n to_o

2.16.17_o the_o which_o other_o man_n do_v make_v to_o fight_v together_o like_o deadly_a enemy_n before_o i_o conclude_v this_o section_n let_v i_o render_v a_o reason_n why_o i_o do_v on_o all_o

than_o the_o yearly_a sabbath_n for_o these_o begin_v but_o after_o the_o give_v of_o the_o law_n but_o that_o begin_v before_o the_o give_n of_o the_o law_n 2._o because_o god_n sanctify_v and_o

that_o also_o by_o precedent_n these_o be_v holy_a but_o by_o destination_n only_o but_o that_o be_v holy_a by_o consecration_n also_o 3._o because_o they_o be_v distinct_a in_o themselves_o the_o one_o be_v once_o every_o week_n the_o other_o once_o every_o year_n 4._o because_o god_n place_v the_o weekly_a seven_o day_n sabbath_n in_o his_o moral_a law_n and_o in_o the_o heart_n or_o first_o table_n thereof_o but_o the_o yearly_a sabbath_n be_v exclude_v thence_o and_o never_o come_v into_o the_o table_n of_o stone_n 5._o because_o the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n be_v a_o sign_n of_o and_o keep_v in_o memory_n of_o the_o creation_n which_o belong_v unto_o all_o man_n alike_o but_o so_o be_v it_o not_o with_o the_o yearly_a sabbath_n there_o be_v good_a reason_n therefore_o why_o i_o

the_o king_n coin_v make_v it_o light_a and_o lesser_a than_o his_o majesty_n coin_v it_o for_o argum_fw-la xviii_o my_o 18_o argument_n for_o the_o maintenance_n of_o the_o ancient_a sabbath_n day_n be_v that_o it_o must_v be_v moral_a and_o still_o in_o use_n because_o it_o be_v observe_v by_o christian_n with_o the_o approbation_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n after_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n and_o abolition_n of_o all_o ceremony_n and_o thus_o i_o argue_v the_o observation_n of_o that_o thing_n by_o christianes_n after_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n and_o abolition_n of_o all_o ceremony_n which_o the_o holy_a ghost_n record_v to_o posterity_n by_o way_n of_o approbation_n and_o commendation_n that_o be_v no_o ceremony_n but_o moral_a and_o still_o in_o force_n but_o the_o observation_n of_o the_o old_a sabbath_n day_n be_v celebrate_v by_o christian_n after_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n and_o abolition_n of_o all_o ceremony_n and_o be_v record_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o all_o posterity_n by_o way_n of_o approbation_n &_o commendation_n therefore_o the_o observation_n of_o the_o old_a sabbath_n day_n be_v no_o ceremony_n but_o a_o moral_a &_o still_o in_o force_n for_o the_o major_n there_o can_v be_v no_o doubt_n of_o it_o for_o since_o that_o all_o ceremony_n have_v their_o period_n and_o last_o date_n at_o christ_n death_n upon_o the_o cross_n it_o can_v be_v think_v that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n will_v give_v the_o least_o commendation_n or_o approbation_n of_o any_o ceremony_n practise_v after_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n at_o which_o time_n all_o ceremony_n have_v their_o end_n unless_o we_o shall_v think_v the_o holy_a ghost_n will_v build_v up_o again_o what_o christ_n have_v throw_v down_o it_o can_v be_v think_v the_o holy_a ghost_n will_v give_v any_o approbation_n of_o a_o ceremony_n unto_o posterity_n and_o the_o christian_a church_n succeed_v wherefore_o the_o observation_n of_o christian_o commend_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n after_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n and_o all_o ceremony_n must_v be_v judge_v a_o moral_a i_o come_v to_o the_o minor_a the_o truth_n of_o which_o i_o prove_v out_o of_o luk._n 23.56_o and_o they_o

therefore_o the_o magistrate_n command_v we_o to_o keep_v it_o we_o must_v keep_v it_o to_o this_o argument_n i_o answer_v 1._o that_o our_o question_n be_v not_o whither_o we_o must_v keep_v the_o lord_n day_n or_o not_o keep_v it_o but_o whither_o christ_n have_v institute_v &_o appoint_v it_o for_o a_o sabbath_n or_o not_o let_v this_o be_v first_o prove_v &_o then_o we_o will_v be_v ready_a to_o keep_v it_o though_o this_o argument_n of_o authority_n be_v want_v 2._o i_o answer_v if_o this_o lord_n day_n have_v no_o high_a authority_n then_o from_o the_o magistrate_n then_o do_v it_o not_o bind_v conscience_n simple_o &_o &_o by_o itself_o but_o as_o all_o indifferent_a thing_n do_v which_o be_v command_v by_o the_o magistrate_n yea_o the_o lord_n day_n itself_o must_v be_v rank_v among_o indifferent_a thing_n where_o of_o the_o magistrate_n may_v proper_o make_v law_n yea_o whereas_o the_o magistrate_n now_o command_v the_o lord_n day_n to_o be_v keep_v if_o it_o have_v no_o high_a authority_n then_o of_o the_o magistrate_n than_o he_o may_v alter_v the_o solemnity_n of_o the_o day_n from_o sunday_n to_o moonday_n to_o tuesday_n or_o to_o any_o other_o day_n of_o the_o week_n yea_o &_o not_o only_o alter_v it_o but_o also_o at_o his_o pleasure_n nullifye_v it_o &_o utter_o forbide_v keep_v of_o it_o any_o more_o and_o so_o the_o tenor_n of_o your_o new_a sabbath_n will_v prove_v but_o a_o fickle_a and_o inconstant_a thing_n 3._o i_o answer_v if_o our_o lord_n day_n stand_v by_o virtue_n of_o the_o magistrate_n they_o be_v it_o not_o keep_v by_o virtue_n of_o the_o four_o come_v but_o by_o virtue_n of_o the_o 5_o com._n for_o it_o be_v the_o 5_o com._n that_o injoin_v obedience_n to_o our_o superioure_n wherefore_o then_o must_v minister_n no_o more_o press_v the_o four_o com._n upon_o the_o lord_n day_n but_o the_o 5_o com._n they_o must_v no_o more_o say_v remember_v the_o sabbath_n day_n but_o now_o they_o must_v say_v honour_v thy_o father_n &_o thy_o mother_n when_o they_o will_v have_v man_n sanctify_v the_o lord_n day_n and_o people_n they_o must_v no_o more_o say_v they_o keep_v the_o lord_n day_n in_o conscience_n of_o the_o four_o com._n but_o in_o conscience_n of_o the_o 5_o com._n and_o thus_o also_o shall_v the_o four_o commandment_n be_v utter_o abolish_v and_o out_o of_o all_o use_n in_o the_o church_n this_o lord_n day_n sabbath_n then_o may_v be_v double_o consider_v of_o as_o it_o be_v command_v by_o god_n or_o as_o it_o be_v command_v by_o the_o magistrate_n as_o it_o be_v command_v by_o the_o magistrate_n so_o i_o do_v no_o way_n oppose_v it_o let_v it_o stand_v so_o such_o as_o it_o be_v in_o that_o respect_n so_o long_o as_o the_o magistrate_n please_v &_o as_o little_a while_n as_o he_o please_v but_o i_o oppose_v our_o minister_n only_o who_o say_v this_o lord_n day_n stand_v by_o divine_a ordination_n from_o god_n &_o so_o entangle_v the_o people_n conscience_n in_o this_o respect_n make_v more_o commandment_n as_o we_o say_v then_o ten_o or_o make_v law_n to_o bind_v conscience_n where_o god_n make_v none_o for_o by_o their_o collection_n &_o consequence_n they_o make_v or_o say_v they_o find_v that_o there_o be_v a_o law_n of_o god_n for_o the_o lord_n day_n which_o be_v most_o false_a sect_n xviii_o thus_o we_o have_v answer_v to_o all_o their_o artificial_a argument_n &_o now_o we_o come_v unto_o their_o testimony_n the_o first_o whereof_o be_v god_n blessing_n of_o this_o day_n &_o god_n curse_v of_o the_o profaner_n of_o it_o &_o first_o of_o the_o former_a say_v they_o god_n blessing_n of_o this_o day_n to_o the_o great_a edification_n of_o the_o church_n be_v a_o sign_n that_o god_n approve_v of_o this_o day_n hereunto_o i_o answer_v it_o be_v one_o thing_n for_o god_n to_o bless_a this_o day_n &_o it_o be_v a_o other_o for_o he_o to_o bless_v his_o ordinance_n in_o the_o day_n god_n ordinance_n in_o the_o day_n be_v preach_v &_o pray_v now_o god_n in_o mercy_n do_v usual_o bless_v these_o ordinance_n of_o he_o be_v conscionable_o use_v upon_o any_o day_n sabbath_n day_n or_o lecture_n day_n now_o we_o must_v careful_o distinguish_v betwixt_o god_n blessing_n of_o the_o day_n wherein_o these_o be_v perform_v &_o god_n blessing_n of_o the_o ordinance_n themselves_o they_o therefore_o mistake_v thing_n that_o argue_v thus_o that_o god_n bless_v the_o day_n when_o they_o shall_v say_v god_n bless_v his_o ordinance_n in_o the_o day_n for_o it_o follow_v not_o that_o because_o god_n bless_v his_o ordinance_n do_v in_o the_o day_n that_o he_o therefore_o bless_v also_o the_o day_n &_o time_n wherein_o these_o ordinance_n be_v do_v no_o more_o than_o god_n bless_v the_o place_n wherein_o these_o ordinance_n be_v perform_v let_v i_o show_v you_o the_o vanity_n of_o this_o argue_v by_o the_o like_a case_n god_n blessing_n do_v usual_o accompany_v painful_a labour_n now_o suppose_v some_o profane_a tradesman_n shall_v work_v all_o day_n long_o upon_o the_o sabbath_n day_n or_o lord_n day_n &_o find_v at_o night_n his_o work_n to_o have_v increase_v &_o thrive_v in_o his_o hand_n may_v he_o argue_v thus_o god_n have_v bless_v this_o day_n unto_o i_o for_o a_o work_a day_n &_o therefore_o here_o after_o i_o shall_v use_v it_o for_o a_o work_a day_n for_o god_n blessing_n upon_o my_o labour_n this_o day_n be_v a_o sign_n that_o god_n approve_v my_o action_n &_o allow_v of_o it_o for_o a_o work_a day_n the_o other_o part_n of_o this_o argument_n be_v that_o god_n have_v curse_v the_o profaner_n of_o this_o lord_n day_n and_o this_o be_v a_o sign_n that_o god_n approve_v of_o the_o day_n for_o we_o read_v in_o book_n set_v forth_o by_o some_o divin_n of_o many_o remarkable_a judgement_n of_o god_n which_o have_v befall_v the_o profaner_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n hereunto_o i_o answer_v 1._o that_o in_o controvercy_n about_o point_n of_o religion_n we_o must_v not_o prove_v thing_n by_o the_o argument_n of_o prosperity_n &_o adversity_n for_o these_o be_v no_o certain_a sign_n of_o god_n will_v and_o pleasure_n no_o man_n for_o certain_a know_v love_n or_o hatred_n of_o all_o that_o be_v before_o they_o eccl._n 9.1_o we_o must_v to_o the_o scripture_n in_o this_o case_n for_o there_o god_n have_v manifest_v his_o will_n but_o you_o may_v perceive_v they_o be_v almost_o out_o of_o breath_n in_o as_o much_o as_o they_o be_v enforce_v to_o fly_v the_o scripture_n and_o hale_v in_o any_o thing_n that_o may_v help_v to_o make_v a_o noise_n and_o put_v some_o colour_n upon_o the_o matter_n before_o the_o simple_a by_o this_o argument_n we_o may_v conclude_v that_o the_o palatinate_n his_o cause_n be_v naught_o and_o the_o emperor_n his_o cause_n be_v good_a because_o god_n cross_v the_o palatinate_n 2._o we_o be_v to_o distinguish_v of_o the_o day_n from_o the_o duty_n in_o the_o day_n now_o we_o may_v impute_v those_o curse_n of_o god_n which_o
of_o christ_n his_o resurrection_n the_o friday_n because_o of_o christ_n his_o passion_n loe_o here_o then_o be_v two_o day_n in_o a_o week_n sanctify_v the_o friday_n &_o the_o sunday_n and_o that_o without_o difference_n now_o who_o that_o read_v this_o can_v think_v that_o the_o church_n in_o constantins_n time_n keep_v the_o sunday_n or_o lord_n day_n as_o a_o sabbath_n unless_o he_o shall_v absurd_o think_v that_o they_o keep_v two_o sabbath_n in_o a_o week_n the_o friday_n &_o the_o sunday_n it_o be_v more_o likely_a that_o they_o keep_v they_o both_o but_o as_o we_o keep_v some_o light_a holy_a day_n nor_o do_v the_o memory_n of_o the_o resurrection_n exalte_v the_o lord_n day_n any_o high_a than_o do_v the_o memory_n of_o the_o passion_n exalte_v the_o friday_n thus_o you_o see_v in_o what_o esteem_v the_o church_n of_o god_n have_v the_o lord_n day_n in_o constantins_n time_n iii_o my_o three_o testimony_n shall_v be_v that_o whereof_o we_o read_v in_o socrates_n his_o ecclesiastical_a history_n lib._n 5._o cap._n 21._o where_o he_o thus_o write_v the_o drift_n say_v he_o of_o the_o apostle_n be_v not_o to_o lay_v down_o canon_n &_o decree_n concern_v feast_n &_o holy_a day_n but_o to_o become_v pattern_n unto_o we_o of_o piety_n of_o good_a life_n &_o godly_a conversation_n whereas_o there_o be_v great_a contention_n at_o this_o time_n to_o prove_v the_o lord_n day_n to_o be_v a_o sabbath_n day_n institute_v in_o the_o new_a testament_n by_o christ_n &_o his_o apostle_n this_o historian_n will_v determine_v the_o controversy_n for_o we_o if_o we_o will_v be_v guide_v by_o the_o judgement_n of_o those_o primitive_a church_n for_o he_o say_v plain_o that_o the_o apostle_n make_v no_o decree_n concern_v holy_a day_n of_o which_o number_n the_o lord_n day_n be_v one_o and_o what_o he_o say_v here_o of_o the_o apostle_n the_o same_o also_o in_o the_o same_o chapter_n he_o say_v of_o christ_n namely_o that_o he_o make_v no_o law_n for_o the_o church_n to_o celebrate_v the_o feast_n of_o easter_n etc._n etc._n thus_o you_o see_v it_o be_v the_o judgement_n of_o antiquity_n that_o neither_o christ_n nor_o his_o apostle_n do_v ever_o appoint_v easter_n day_n which_o be_v the_o lord_n day_n nor_o any_o other_o day_n to_o be_v sanctify_v for_o sabbath_n i_o deny_v not_o for_o all_o this_o that_o those_o time_n give_v any_o respect_n unto_o the_o lord_n day_n and_o other_o holy_a day_n but_o this_o only_a i_o deny_v that_o they_o sanctify_v this_o lord_n day_n as_o divine_o institute_v and_o appoint_v by_o christ_n or_o his_o

augustins_n judgement_n sanctify_v every_o friday_n and_o every_o thursday_n for_o sabbath_n throughout_o the_o year_n as_o every_o lord_n day_n for_o they_o have_v all_o three_o the_o same_o

have_v find_v out_o so_o many_o scripture_n for_o it_o we_o have_v now_o this_o text_n of_o scripture_n joh._n 20.19.26_o witness_v that_o christ_n do_v often_o appear_v unto_o his_o disciple_n on_o

since_o we_o see_v they_o and_o say_v they_o be_v so_o clear_a to_o prove_v the_o point_n shall_v i_o tell_v you_o my_o opinion_n it_o be_v this_o i_o suppose_v they_o that_o first_o set_v their_o wit_n on_o work_n to_o find_v a_o divine_a institution_n for_o this_o lord_n day_n they_o see_v nothing_o but_o tradition_n of_o the_o church_n for_o it_o as_o for_o the_o rest_n of_o holy_a day_n but_o miselike_v this_o they_o judge_v it_o better_o to_o have_v it_o stand_v by_o a_o divine_a ordinance_n and_o therefore_o have_v use_v their_o wit_n to_o wrest_v these_o scripture_n thitherwards_o so_o now_o they_o have_v father_v the_o matter_n all_o upon_o god_n and_o make_v this_o lord_n day_n a_o divine_a ordinance_n to_o get_v the_o more_o honour_n unto_o it_o this_o dare_v not_o s._n

sanctification_n with_o good_a friday_n hallow_n thursday_n &_o other_o holy_a day_n to_o conclude_v well_o we_o may_v make_v of_o the_o lord_n day_n what_o esteem_v we_o will_v but_o yet_o you_o see_v it_o be_v but_o a_o tradition_n a_o popish_a tradition_n &_o as_o this_o be_v the_o judgement_n of_o s._n augustine_n so_o you_o shall_v see_v it_o confirm_v by_o other_o also_o by_o &_o by_o now_o if_o it_o prove_v but_o a_o tradition_n they_o may_v we_o conclude_v that_o all_o romish_a rubbish_n be_v not_o as_o yet_o clean_o sweep_v out_o of_o the_o reform_a church_n an_o other_o

of_o the_o four_o com._n then_o s._n augustine_n must_v have_v observe_v the_o time_n for_o the_o day_n &_o time_n to_o wit_n the_o seven_o day_n be_v no_o less_o enjoin_v in_o the_o four_o com._n

the_o rest_n he_o repeat_v the_o four_o com._n say_v remember_v the_o sahbath_n day_n to_o keep_v it_o holy_a etc._n etc._n but_o the_o seven_o day_n be_v the_o sabbath_n of_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n in_o it_o thou_o shall_v not_o do_v any_o work_n etc._n etc._n for_o the_o lord_n rest_v the_o seven_o day_n and_o therefore_o the_o lord_n bless_v the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o hallow_v it_o now_o as_o soon_o as_o this_o commandment_n touch_v the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n be_v rehearse_v in_o the_o audience_n of_o the_o people_n it_o be_v by_o our_o church_n order_v that_o the_o whole_a

church_n do_v ratify_v the_o sabbath_n day_n by_o pray_v daily_o to_o god_n to_o incline_v our_o heart_n to_o keep_v it_o but_o happy_o some_o may_v say_v our_o church_n do_v not_o intend_v by_o this_o her_o prayer_n to_o ratify_v the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n which_o be_v the_o jew_n sabbath_n hereunto_o i_o reply_v that_o by_o this_o her_o prayer_n she_o must_v be_v understod_a to_o pray_v to_o god_n to_o incline_v our_o heart_n either_o to_o the_o keep_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n or_o to_o the_o keep_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n sabbath_n now_o strong_o i_o be_o persuade_v that_o the_o reverend_a bishope_n of_o our_o church_n will_v not_o say_v that_o the_o four_o come_v do_v command_v we_o to_o keep_v the_o lord_n day_n &_o therefore_o when_o we_o pray_v to_o god_n to_o incline_v our_o heart_n to_o the_o keep_n of_o the_o four_o come_v we_o can_v understand_v our_o prayer_n to_o be_v mean_v of_o the_o lord_n day_n for_o it_o be_v not_o the_o day_n call_v lord_n day_n which_o the_o four_o com._n injoin_v but_o it_o be_v the_o day_n call_v sabbath_n day_n as_o you_o see_v in_o the_o commandment_n and_o it_o be_v not_o the_o lord_n day_n which_o the_o minister_n pronounce_v in_o read_v the_o four_o come_v but_o it_o be_v the_o sabbath_n day_n which_o he_o speak_v of_o neither_o be_v it_o the_o 8_o day_n or_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n which_o the_o four_o come_v speak_v of_o but_o it_o be_v the_o seven_o day_n and_o last_o day_n of_o the_o week_n which_o the_o commandment_n mention_v neither_o be_v it_o the_o 8_o day_n or_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n or_o lord_n day_n where_o in_o god_n rest_v at_o the_o creation_n but_o it_o be_v the_o seven_o day_n wherein_o god_n rest_v as_o the_o commandment_n say_v neither_o be_v it_o the_o lord_n day_n which_o the_o commandment_n say_v god_n bless_v and_o hallow_v but_o it_o be_v the_o day_n call_v sabbath_n day_n which_o god_n bless_a and_o hallow_a as_o the_o four_o commandment_n speak_v wherefore_o when_o the_o minister_n say_v remember_v to_o sanctify_v the_o sabbath_n day_n if_o then_o we_o shall_v pray_v thus_o lord_n incline_v our_o heart_n to_o keep_v the_o lord_n day_n do_v we_o not_o so_o make_v answer_n as_o sometime_o deaf_a man_n do_v who_o when_o a_o man_n cale_v for_o a_o knife_n they_o bring_v he_o the_o sheath_n &_o when_o the_o minister_n tell_v the_o people_n which_o day_n be_v the_o sabbath_n day_n say_v but_o the_o seven_o day_n be_v the_o sabbath_n of_o the_o lord_n if_o then_o we_o shall_v pray_v thus_o lord_n incline_v our_o heart_n to_o keep_v the_o 8_o day_n be_v we_o not_o then_o like_o those_o that_o come_v to_o church_n when_o the_o sermon_n be_v do_v &_o that_o go_v to_o sell_v comodity_n the_o day_n after_o the_o fair_a yea_o be_v not_o this_o to_o babble_n with_o god_n and_o to_o profane_v this_o holy_a ordinance_n of_o prayer_n when_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o church_n can_v be_v take_v but_o ij_o way_n it_o be_v a_o very_a absurd_a thing_n &_o uncharitable_a for_o any_o man_n to_o expound_v they_o in_o the_o worse_a sense_n which_o be_v a_o false_a and_o absurd_a sense_n wherefore_o since_o the_o lord_n day_n can_v be_v mean_v in_o our_o public_a prayer_n therefore_o the_o sabbath_n day_n must_v be_v mean_v for_o there_o be_v none_o other_o but_o one_o of_o these_o two_o that_o can_v be_v imagine_v and_o thus_o i_o have_v prove_v the_o 3d_o branch_n of_o my_o minor_n to_o wit_n that_o our_o church_n do_v pray_v to_o god_n daily_o to_o incline_v our_o heart_n to_o keep_v the_o sabbath_n day_n &_o so_o these_o 3_o point_n be_v prove_v 1._o that_o the_o apostle_n keep_v the_o sabbath_n day_n 2._o that_o the_o primitive_a church_n after_o they_o keep_v it_o 3._o that_o our_o church_n daily_o pray_v to_o god_n to_o keep_v it_o wherefore_o if_o the_o constant_a practice_n of_o the_o apostle_n &_o the_o religiouse_a practice_n of_o the_o most_o ancient_a and_o primi_fw-la tive_a church_n after_o the_o apostle_n &_o the_o daily_a prayer_n of_o our_o church_n will_v any_o thing_n avail_v with_o we_o then_o must_v we_o sanctify_v the_o seven_o day_n saturday_n sabbath_n argum._n xiii_o i_o have_v think_v to_o have_v add_v no_o more_o by_o way_n of_o proof_n for_o confirmation_n of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n but_o further_a search_n have_v minister_v unto_o i_o more_o argument_n &_o these_o they_o be_v which_o follow_v my_o 13_o argument_n for_o confirmation_n of_o the_o seven_o sabbath_n be_v because_o we_o must_v imitate_v god_n who_o keep_v the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n and_o thus_o i_o frame_v it_o whosoever_o must_v imitate_v god_n in_o his_o keep_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n they_o must_v keep_v the_o saturday_n seven_o day_n sabbath_n but_o we_o must_v imitate_v god_n in_o his_o keep_n of_o tho_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n therefore_o we_o must_v keep_v the_o saturday_n seven_o day_n sabbath_n for_o the_o mayor_n it_o be_v clear_a for_o since_o god_n keep_v the_o saturday_n seven_o day_n sabbath_n if_o we_o must_v imitate_v he_o then_o must_v we_o keep_v the_o same_o day_n in_o order_n when_o iâ—_n come_v and_o so_o do_v
that_o day_n we_o shall_v want_v our_o sabbath_n day_n meal_n and_o so_o all_o that_o day_n long_o our_o soul_n shall_v lack_v its_o refreshment_n and_o all_o the_o sabbath_n day_n long_o our_o soul_n shall_v be_v pine_v and_o languish_v wherefore_o the_o supply_v make_v upon_o the_o lord_n day_n will_v no_o more_o help_n for_o the_o sabbath_n day_n when_o it_o be_v past_a than_o a_o meal_n meat_n on_o sunday_n will_v comfort_v a_o man_n on_o saturday_n &_o so_o much_o for_o this_o objection_n there_o be_v other_o objection_n also_o but_o i_o will_v handle_v they_o together_o in_o the_o next_o

hereunto_o i_o answer_v brief_o that_o these_o text_n as_o any_o man_n may_v see_v by_o the_o context_n speak_v only_o of_o burden_n bear_v in_o a_o ordinary_a &_o common_a case_n as_o a_o servile_a

joh._n 5.8.9.10_o see_v therefore_o that_o god_n do_v not_o forbid_v a_o man_n to_o carry_v a_o burden_n on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n in_o his_o necessity_n where_o be_v there_o any_o ground_n then_o here_o for_o any_o man_n to_o say_v the_o jeweish_a rest_n be_v strict_a and_o rigorouse_a i_o never_o yet_o can_v see_v but_o that_o god_n allow_v the_o jew_n as_o much_o liberty_n on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n as_o he_o allow_v christianes_n and_o as_o much_o liberty_n as_o minister_n grant_v unto_o christian_n on_o the_o lord_n day_n &_o therefore_o it_o be_v but_o a_o mere_a slander_n to_o

of_o mercy_n and_o work_n of_o necessity_n may_v be_v do_v by_o the_o jew_n on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n as_o well_o as_o by_o we_o christianes_n now_o loe_o these_o device_n wise_a man_n have_v to_o

will_v not_o have_v his_o disciple_n to_o do_v no_o not_o such_o necessary_a work_n as_o may_v save_v their_o life_n on_o the_o sabbath_n if_o they_o may_v be_v prevent_v &_o thus_o i_o have_v sufficient_o prove_v the_o four_o thing_n in_o my_o minor_n the_o 5_o and_o last_o thing_n to_o be_v prove_v in_o my_o minor_n be_v that_o this_o flight_n on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n be_v speak_v of_o to_o be_v about_o 50_o year_n after_o the_o death_n &_o end_n of_o all_o ceremony_n that_o the_o destruction_n of_o jerusalem_n by_o vespasian_n be_v a_o matter_n of_o 40_o or_o 46._o year_n after_o

it_o follow_v that_o the_o sabbath_n be_v to_o be_v observe_v near_o 50_o year_n after_o the_o end_n of_o all_o ceremony_n and_o thus_o i_o have_v prove_v and_o confirm_v both_o propositiones_fw-la in_o my_o argument_n yet_o ay_o cale_fw-la to_o mind_n iij_o objection_n more_o that_o may_v be_v make_v against_o this_o argument_n the_o one_o be_v that_o christ_n have_v not_o respect_v so_o much_o unto_o the_o religion_n &_o conscience_n of_o the_o sabbath_n as_o rather_o to_o this_o that_o he_o have_v a_o care_n to_o the_o safeguard_n of_o the_o life_n of_o those_o besiege_a for_o if_o they_o shall_v fly_v in_o the_o winter_n they_o shall_v be_v hinder_v by_o the_o foulness_n of_o the_o way_n and_o if_o on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n they_o shall_v be_v hinder_v by_o their_o superstitiouse_a &_o needless_a conscience_n which_o they_o will_v make_v of_o the_o sabbath_n &_o so_o it_o may_v come_v to_o pass_v that_o their_o enemy_n shall_v surprise_v they_o because_o they_o can_v not_o make_v that_o speed_n that_o be_v fit_v in_o such_o a_o time_n of_o danger_n hereunto_o janswer_n 1._o it_o be_v agrosse_v conceit_n of_o any_o to_o account_v that_o obedience_n superstitiouse_a &_o

four_o come_v to_o be_v abolish_v 2._o i_o have_v before_o show_v that_o christ_n when_o he_o speak_v of_o slight_a on_o the_o sabbath_n he_o speak_v it_o in_o a_o religiouse_a respect_n but_o admit_v that_o christ_n speak_v these_o word_n for_o the_o safeguard_n of_o their_o life_n yet_o so_o it_o will_v come_v to_o the_o same_o still_o that_o christ_n ratify_v the_o sabbath_n day_n for_o as_o in_o the_o winter_n the_o deepness_n of_o the_o way_n the_o shortness_n of_o the_o day_n &_o tediousness_n of_o the_o weather_n will_v aggravate_v their_o cross_n &_o hinder_v their_o speedy_a

that_o day_n wherein_o they_o be_v wont_v sweet_o to_o rest_n with_o the_o people_n of_o god_n &_o to_o praise_n god_n in_o the_o assembly_n of_o the_o saint_n &_o for_o that_o they_o be_v enforce_v to_o profane_v the_o sabbath_n which_o they_o will_v glad_o have_v sanctify_v in_o obedience_n to_o god_n four_o come_v these_o thing_n will_v aggravate_v the_o cross_n and_o stick_v so_o in_o their_o mind_n as_o it_o will_v make_v their_o heart_n to_o fail_v they_o and_o so_o hinder_v their_o speedy_a flight_n thus_o the_o winter_n will_v be_v a_o impediment_n to_o their_o body_n and_o the_o sabbath_n will_v be_v a_o impediment_n to_o their_o soul_n &_o so_o the_o whole_a man_n will_v be_v disable_v for_o a_o speedy_a flight_n and_o for_o the_o safeguard_n of_o their_o life_n further_o more_o as_o touch_v their_o superstitiouse_a conscience_n what_o reason_n can_v be_v imagine_v that_o it_o shall_v be_v more_o unfit_a to_o fly_v on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n then_o on_o a_o week_n day_n or_o why_o shall_v their_o speedy_a flight_n be_v more_o hinder_v on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n then_o on_o a_o other_o day_n if_o not_o for_o this_o cause_n that_o they_o make_v a_o conscience_n of_o fly_v &_o travail_v on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n more_o than_o on_o any_o other_o day_n now_o forasmuch_o as_o our_o saviour_n command_v they_o to_o pray_v to_o god_n that_o they_o may_v not_o fly_v on_o that_o day_n for_o the_o offence_n of_o their_o conscience_n thereby_o he_o allow_v of_o &_o approve_v of_o their_o make_a conscience_n of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n suppose_v our_o saviour_n

steal_v he_o shall_v thereby_o approve_v of_o agurs_n fear_v of_o grow_v proud_a &_o of_o steal_v &_o so_o it_o be_v in_o our_o case_n for_o in_o that_o christ_n bid_v they_o pray_v that_o they_o may_v not_o fly_v on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n lest_o thereby_o their_o conscience_n shall_v be_v offend_v &_o their_o heart_n fill_v with_o sorrow_n for_o profane_v god_n sabbath_n thereby_o christ_n allow_v of_o their_o conscience_n of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n &_o of_o their_o sorrow_n for_o profane_v it_o and_o so_o it_o be_v no_o superstitiouse_a conscience_n have_v the_o sabbath_n day_n be_v abolish_v long_o before_o this_o siege_n as_o this_o objection_n suppose_v &_o so_o the_o conscience_n of_o christ_n disciple_n be_v but_o superstitiouse_a then_o will_v christ_n never_o have_v

they_o spend_v divine_a prayer_n for_o the_o satisfy_a the_o desire_n of_o a_o superstitiouse_a &_o needless_a conscience_n &_o have_v not_o this_o be_v a_o abuse_n of_o holy_a prayer_n and_o of_o the_o majesty_n of_o god_n to_o beg_v of_o he_o thing_n for_o their_o lust_n &_o vain_a desire_n if_o their_o conscience_n be_v a_o vain_a &_o needless_a conscience_n than_o they_o shall_v pray_v to_o

christ_n disciple_n be_v superstitiouse_a touch_v the_o sabbath_n day_n then_o will_v christ_n have_v reprove_v they_o for_o it_o and_o rather_o have_v rectify_v their_o judgement_n &_o teach_v they_o now_o before_o hand_n that_o as_o touch_v the_o sabbath_n if_o it_o fall_v out_o that_o they_o must_v fly_v on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n they_o shall_v then_o take_v no_o care_n for_o that_o for_o he_o

never_o care_v what_o become_v of_o god_n sacred_a sabbath_n nor_o when_o a_o reformation_n be_v make_v object_n ii_o some_o who_o be_v enemy_n to_o god_n sabbath_n and_o friend_n to_o the_o lord_n

at_o all_o of_o it_o in_o the_o dispensation_n it_o be_v allow_v for_o man_n to_o keep_v the_o new_a sabbath_n or_o lord_n day_n for_o the_o old_a sabbath_n and_o in_o stead_n of_o it_o for_o a_o season_n which_o do_v imply_v that_o they_o have_v rather_o keep_v the_o old_a sabbath_n than_o the_o new_a &_o that_o they_o have_v a_o conscience_n of_o the_o old_a sabbath_n still_o and_o that_o
