for_o a_o perpetual_a ordinance_n but_o to_o we_o in_o the_o new_a testament_n both_o it_o and_o other_o legal_a ceremony_n be_v abrogate_a and_o we_o have_v only_o two_o sacrament_n to_o be_v administer_v and_o receive_v as_o seal_n of_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n and_o part_n of_o his_o worship_n baptism_n and_o the_o supper_n of_o the_o lord_n second_o that_o which_o be_v not_o commend_v unto_o we_o by_o god_n in_o the_o name_n of_o worship_n be_v no_o worship_n to_o us._n now_o the_o ceremony_n of_o the_o jew_n be_v no_o where_o commend_v unto_o we_o in_o that_o name_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v a_o vain_a thing_n for_o any_o man_n to_o vow_v the_o observation_n thereof_o three_o vow_n of_o ceremonial_a duty_n do_v in_o a_o peculiar_a manner_n and_o upon_o special_a respect_n pertain_v to_o the_o jew_n hereupon_o when_o they_o vow_v house_n land_n good_n etc._n etc._n to_o the_o use_n of_o the_o temple_n this_o they_o do_v as_o be_v the_o lord_n tenant_n of_o who_o alone_o they_o hold_v their_o possession_n and_o hereby_o they_o acknowledge_v and_o also_o testify_v their_o homage_n and_o service_n due_a unto_o he_o and_o this_o particular_a respect_n concern_v not_o the_o church_n and_o people_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n whence_o it_o follow_v that_o they_o be_v not_o tie_v by_o the_o same_o bond_n to_o perform_v worship_n unto_o god_n by_o the_o vow_n of_o ceremony_n gift_n oblation_n and_o sacrifice_n the_o three_o and_o last_o part_n of_o the_o answer_n if_o a_o vow_n be_v take_v for_o a_o promise_n of_o some_o bodily_a and_o outward_a work_n or_o exercise_v as_o fast_v give_v of_o alm_n abstain_v from_o certain_a meat_n and_o drink_n etc._n etc._n then_o it_o be_v not_o any_o part_n of_o god_n worship_n but_o only_o a_o help_n stay_v and_o furtherance_n of_o the_o same_o for_o first_o we_o have_v liberty_n of_o conscience_n in_o christ_n to_o use_v or_o not_o to_o use_v all_o indifferent_a thing_n now_o god_n worship_n be_v not_o a_o thing_n of_o that_o nature_n but_o absolute_o necessary_a second_o paul_n 1._o tim._n 4._o 8._o affirm_v that_o bodily_a exercise_n profit_v little_a but_o godliness_n be_v profitable_a for_o all_o thing_n in_o which_o word_n he_o oppose_v godliness_n to_o bodily_a exercise_n and_o therefore_o godliness_n or_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n consist_v not_o in_o they_o but_o the_o word_n of_o david_n be_v allege_v to_o the_o contrary_a psal._n 76._o 11._o vow_n and_o perform_v unto_o the_o lord_n your_o god_n where_o we_o have_v a_o double_a command_n one_o to_o make_v vow_n another_o to_o pay_v they_o to_o which_o i_o answer_v first_o if_o david_n speak_v of_o the_o vow_n of_o all_o moral_a duty_n than_o the_o commandment_n concern_v every_o man_n because_o the_o thing_n command_v be_v a_o part_n of_o god_n worship_n for_o it_o be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v vow_v thankful_a obedience_n unto_o god_n and_o perform_v it_o again_o if_o the_o place_n be_v mean_v of_o the_o vow_n of_o ceremonial_a duty_n than_o it_o be_v a_o commandment_n peculiar_a to_o the_o old_a testament_n and_o so_o bind_v the_o jew_n only_o howbeit_o not_o all_o of_o they_o but_o only_o such_o as_o have_v just_a cause_n to_o make_v a_o vow_n for_o otherwise_o they_o have_v liberty_n to_o abstain_v from_o vow_v deut._n 23._o 22._o when_o thou_o abstain_v from_o vow_v it_o shall_v be_v no_o sin_n unto_o thou_o of_o one_o of_o these_o two_o kind_n must_v the_o place_n allege_v necessary_o be_v understand_v and_o not_o of_o the_o three_o which_o be_v of_o bodily_a exercise_n for_o than_o it_o shall_v reverse_v christian_a liberty_n in_o the_o use_n of_o thing_n indifferent_a which_o no_o commandment_n can_v do_v by_o light_n of_o this_o answer_n we_o may_v discern_v the_o error_n of_o the_o popish_a church_n which_o make_v vow_n a_o part_n of_o religion_n and_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n nay_o further_o it_o teach_v that_o some_o vow_n as_o namely_o those_o of_o poverty_n continency_n regular_a obedience_n to_o this_o or_o that_o order_n be_v work_n of_o merit_n and_o supererogation_n tend_v to_o a_o state_n of_o perfection_n even_o in_o this_o life_n and_o deserve_v a_o further_a degree_n of_o glory_n in_o heaven_n than_o the_o work_n of_o the_o moral_a law_n iii_o question_n when_o a_o vow_v make_v do_v bind_v and_o when_o not_o before_o i_o give_v answer_n to_o the_o question_n i_o will_v lay_v down_o this_o ground_n in_o make_v of_o a_o lawful_a vow_n four_o condition_n be_v to_o be_v observe_v the_o first_o concern_v the_o person_n of_o he_o that_o vow_v that_o he_o be_v a_o fit_a person_n his_o fitness_n may_v be_v discern_v by_o two_o thing_n first_o if_o he_o be_v at_o his_o own_o liberty_n as_o touch_v the_o thing_n whereof_o he_o make_v his_o vow_n and_o not_o under_o the_o government_n of_o a_o superior_a thus_o in_o the_o old_a testament_n if_o a_o daughter_n have_v make_v a_o vow_n without_o the_o consent_n or_o allowance_n of_o her_o father_n it_o may_v not_o stand_v in_o effect_n numb_a 30._o 4_o 5._o second_o if_o the_o party_n keep_v himself_o within_o the_o compass_n of_o his_o call_n general_a and_o particular_a hence_o it_o follow_v that_o vow_n of_o go_v a_o pilgrimage_n to_o worship_v this_o or_o that_o idol_n in_o this_o or_o that_o place_n for_o example_n s._n james_n of_o compostella_n and_o the_o lady_n of_o loretto_n etc._n etc._n be_v utter_o unlawful_a because_o such_o person_n by_o this_o practice_n do_v leave_v their_o call_n and_o condition_n of_o life_n and_o take_v upon_o they_o a_o calling_n not_o warrant_v by_o the_o lord_n the_o second_o condition_n be_v concern_v the_o matter_n of_o a_o vow_n it_o must_v be_v lawful_a possible_a and_o acceptable_a to_o god_n hereupon_o it_o follow_v that_o there_o be_v four_o thing_n which_o can_v be_v the_o matter_n of_o a_o vow_n the_o first_o be_v sinne._n thus_o the_o jew_n bind_v themselves_o with_o a_o vow_n that_o they_o will_v neither_o eat_v nor_o drink_v till_o they_o have_v kill_v paul_n act._n 23._o 12_o 14._o this_o their_o vow_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o threaten_n of_o god_n himself_o and_o therefore_o utter_o unlawful_a second_o trifle_n and_o light_a matter_n as_o when_o a_o man_n vow_v not_o to_o take_v up_o a_o straw_n or_o such_o like_a and_o this_o be_v a_o plain_a mock_n of_o god_n three_o thing_n impossible_a as_o to_o fly_v or_o to_o go_v on_o foot_n to_o jerusalem_n four_o thing_n mere_o necessary_a as_o to_o die_v which_o can_v be_v avoid_v the_o three_o be_v touch_v the_o form_n of_o a_o vow_n it_o must_v be_v voluntary_a and_o free_a and_o that_o it_o may_v be_v so_o three_o thing_n be_v necessary_o require_v first_o that_o it_o be_v make_v in_o judgement_n that_o be_v with_o reason_n and_o deliberation_n next_o that_o it_o be_v do_v with_o consent_n of_o will_n and_o three_o with_o liberty_n of_o conscience_n hence_o it_o appear_v that_o the_o vow_n of_o child_n madman_n and_o fool_n or_o such_o as_o be_v take_v upon_o rashness_n or_o constraint_n also_o the_o vow_n of_o perpetual_a abstinence_n from_o thing_n simple_o indifferent_a be_v all_o utter_o unlawful_a for_o the_o first_o sort_n be_v not_o do_v upon_o judgement_n the_o next_o without_o due_a consideration_n and_o the_o last_o be_v great_o prejudicial_a to_o christian_a liberty_n the_o four_o concern_v the_o end_n which_o be_v not_o to_o be_v a_o part_n of_o god_n worship_n but_o only_o a_o stay_n and_o prop_v to_o further_o and_o help_v we_o in_o the_o same_o now_o there_o be_v three_o particular_a end_n of_o a_o vow_n first_o to_o show_v ourselves_o thankful_a to_o god_n for_o blessing_n receive_v second_o to_o prevent_v sin_n to_o come_v by_o keep_v so_o brietie_n and_o moderation_n three_o to_o preserve_v and_o increase_v our_o faith_n prayer_n repentance_n and_o obedience_n this_o ground_n be_v lay_v the_o answer_n to_o the_o question_v propound_v be_v this_o when_o in_o vow_v we_o observe_v the_o condition_n praerequired_n the_o vow_n be_v lawful_a and_o consequent_o bind_v the_o party_n vow_v so_o as_o if_o he_o keep_v it_o not_o he_o dishonour_v god_n but_o when_o the_o say_a condition_n do_v not_o concur_v in_o the_o action_n of_o vow_v it_o become_v unlawful_a and_o the_o party_n remain_v free_a and_o not_o bind_v to_o performance_n here_o by_o the_o way_n a_o question_n of_o some_o moment_n be_v make_v whether_o jephte_n upon_o his_o vow_n do_v offer_v his_o daughter_n in_o sacrifice_n or_o no_o consider_v that_o it_o be_v plain_a even_o by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n as_o also_o by_o the_o doctrine_n before_o teach_v that_o a_o man_n be_v bind_v by_o the_o vow_n which_o he_o make_v this_o question_n admit_v sundry_a answer_n according_a to_o the_o diverse_a opinion_n
