the_o name_n of_o god_n be_v with_o such_o religion_n regard_v among_o they_o as_o that_o there_o be_v some_o find_v among_o they_o that_o do_v choose_v rather_o to_o die_v than_o to_o break_v their_o

rom._n 3._o the_o last_o verse_n where_o dispute_v of_o justification_n by_o faith_n without_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n he_o put_v apostle_n the_o continuance_n of_o the_o law_n warrant_v by_o

case_n christ_n the_o law_n warrant_v to_o continue_v by_o christ_n but_o he_o follow_v therein_o the_o example_n of_o his_o master_n christ_n who_o express_o affirm_v so_o much_o matth._n 5_o 17._o where_n speak_v of_o the_o moral_a law_n he_o say_v think_v not_o that_o i_o be_o come_v to_o destroy_v the_o law_n or_o the_o prophet_n i_o be_o not_o come_v to_o destroy_v they_o but_o to_o fulfil_v they_o the_o occasion_n of_o this_o doctrine_n as_o it_o shall_v seem_v be_v thus_o because_o he_o have_v find_v fault_n many_o time_n with_o the_o pharisy_n for_o their_o over_o strict_a keep_n of_o the_o sabbath_n prefer_v the_o rest_n of_o the_o day_n before_o the_o good_a of_o man_n as_o if_o man_n have_v be_v make_v for_o the_o sabbath_n and_o not_o the_o sabbath_n for_o man_n the_o pharisy_n therefore_o begin_v to_o accuse_v he_o as_o a_o breaker_n or_o rather_o as_o a_o abolish_a of_o the_o law_n and_o as_o it_o may_v seem_v some_o of_o his_o disciple_n also_o begin_v to_o drink_v in_o this_o opinion_n and_o to_o promise_v liberty_n unto_o themselves_o as_o if_o christ_n have_v come_v to_o put_v a_o end_n unto_o the_o law_n especial_o see_v he_o go_v about_o to_o establish_v justification_n by_o faith_n which_o christ_n observe_v direct_v this_o speech_n unto_o they_o think_v not_o say_v he_o that_o i_o be_o come_v to_o dissolve_v the_o law_n as_o oppose_v this_o his_o speech_n direct_o unto_o their_o conceit_n which_o they_o have_v of_o the_o abolish_n of_o the_o law_n neither_o yet_o do_v he_o here_o rest_v but_o in_o the_o second_o place_n he_o show_v that_o he_o be_v so_o far_o from_o the_o destroy_n of_o it_o as_o that_o he_o come_v to_o a_o quite_o contrary_a end_n namely_o to_o fulfil_v it_o now_o he_o which_o do_v fulfil_v it_o do_v not_o destroy_v it_o for_o these_o be_v oppose_v by_o he_o as_o be_v contrary_a the_o one_o to_o the_o other_o for_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o he_o both_o to_o destroy_v the_o law_n and_o yet_o to_o fulfil_v it_o neither_o yet_o do_v he_o here_o content_v himself_o to_o show_v the_o end_n of_o his_o come_n namely_o to_o fulfil_v the_o law_n but_o when_o he_o have_v do_v he_o show_v in_o the_o three_o place_n the_o durableness_n of_o this_o law_n and_o that_o there_o be_v nothing_o so_o lasting_a as_o it_o no_o not_o the_o heaven_n though_o never_o so_o constant_a in_o their_o motion_n nor_o the_o earth_n though_o never_o so_o fix_v a_o centre_n for_o they_o shall_v both_o pass_v away_o before_o the_o whole_a law_n do_v he_o say_v shall_v pass_v nay_o rather_o than_o the_o least_o jot_n or_o title_n of_o it_o shall_v escape_v or_o fall_v and_o therefore_o whereas_o some_o say_v so_o much_o of_o the_o moral_a law_n shall_v stand_v as_o christ_n have_v reestablish_v in_o the_o new_a testament_n therein_o they_o grant_v the_o very_a thing_n in_o question_n namely_o that_o the_o sabbath_n shall_v remain_v for_o christ_n have_v establish_v the_o whole_a law_n yea_o and_o have_v warrant_v every_o jot_n or_o title_n of_o it_o to_o be_v as_o durable_a as_o the_o heaven_n and_o therefore_o unless_o we_o can_v turn_v heaven_n and_o earth_n upside_o down_o let_v we_o beware_v to_o take_v one_o jot_n or_o title_n from_o the_o law_n of_o god_n four_o that_o we_o may_v certain_o know_v that_o neither_o this_o law_n nor_o any_o part_n of_o it_o be_v dissolve_v he_o show_v that_o he_o that_o shall_v break_v one_o of_o the_o least_o commandment_n be_v as_o in_o luke_n thou_o child_n shall_v be_v call_v the_o prophet_n of_o the_o high_a that_o be_v shall_v be_v and_o teach_v man_n

from_o the_o break_n of_o it_o that_o he_o require_v a_o more_o exact_a keep_n of_o it_o for_o say_v he_o if_o your_o righteousness_n exceed_v not_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharisy_n you_o can_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n now_o as_o for_o those_o that_o be_v of_o opinion_n that_o this_o place_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v of_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n which_o christ_n do_v fulfil_v though_o it_o be_v true_a that_o christ_n do_v fulfil_v that_o also_o yet_o that_o he_o mean_v the_o ceremonial_a law_n in_o this_o place_n i_o can_v see_v how_o they_o will_v be_v able_a to_o prove_v unless_o they_o will_v also_o hold_v first_o that_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n be_v not_o abolish_v second_o that_o it_o shall_v last_v as_o long_o as_o the_o world_n

which_o if_o any_o dare_v be_v so_o shameless_a as_o to_o affirm_v of_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n yet_o they_o shall_v be_v undo_v and_o prove_v nothing_o thereby_o against_o we_o but_o all_o for_o we_o namely_o that_o the_o sabbath_n shall_v continue_v it_o be_v as_o they_o say_v ceremonial_a but_o the_o truth_n be_v it_o can_v be_v understand_v of_o any_o other_o law_n than_o of_o the_o decalogue_n or_o ten_o commandment_n as_o i_o have_v already_o show_v and_o yet_o further_o to_o show_v that_o christ_n meaning_n be_v so_o he_o present_o fall_v into_o a_o exposition_n of_o certain_a precept_n of_o the_o decalogue_n wherein_o the_o pharisy_n have_v teach_v amiss_o but_o now_o will_v some_o man_n say_v he_o do_v not_o there_o expound_v the_o sabbath_n and_o therefore_o the_o sabbath_n be_v not_o reestablish_v answ_n beside_o that_o he_o little_o consider_v what_o i_o have_v show_v that_o every_o jot_n and_o title_n thereof_o be_v establish_v as_o firm_a as_o the_o heaven_n and_o that_o he_o that_o break_v the_o least_o commandment_n and_o teach_v man_n so_o shall_v be_v the_o least_o in_o the_o kingdom_n etc._n etc._n beside_o all_o this_o i_o say_v he_o may_v abolish_v by_o this_o reason_n the_o rest_n of_o the_o commandment_n that_o be_v not_o there_o expound_v he_o must_v therefore_o know_v that_o there_o be_v another_o reason_n that_o cause_v christ_n not_o to_o speak_v any_o thing_n of_o the_o sabbath_n for_o it_o be_v christ_n intent_n and_o purpose_n there_o to_o show_v how_o they_o come_v short_a in_o the_o exposition_n of_o the_o law_n and_o

year_n after_o his_o ascension_n shall_v pray_v that_o their_o flight_n may_v not_o be_v upon_o the_o sabbath_n he_o do_v sufficient_o declare_v that_o he_o hold_v not_o this_o commandment_n in_o account_n of_o a_o ceremony_n but_o of_o a_o moral_a precept_n for_o first_o if_o it_o have_v be_v ceremonial_a they_o may_v have_v flee_v without_o any_o care_n for_o it_o have_v be_v abolish_v

and_o last_o of_o all_o have_v he_o hold_v it_o a_o ceremony_n he_o shall_v rather_o have_v teach_v they_o not_o to_o have_v stand_v upon_o the_o keep_n of_o it_o be_v it_o have_v be_v a_o great_a

that_o therefore_o his_o speech_n be_v direct_v unto_o they_o which_o hold_v this_o error_n first_o this_o their_o evasion_n have_v no_o ground_n for_o how_o will_v they_o make_v it_o appear_v that_o

of_o christ_n speech_n be_v alter_v so_o the_o word_n look_v quite_o another_o way_n as_o namely_o unto_o the_o hindrance_n and_o let_n that_o may_v befall_v unto_o they_o and_o first_o to_o the_o
