have_v the_o spirit_n lord_n take_v not_o thy_o holy_a spirit_n from_o i_o psal_n 51._o 11._o so_o when_o a_o man_n have_v not_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n he_o shall_v pray_v to_o god_n lord_n give_v thy_o holy_a spirit_n to_o i_o and_o send_v down_o thy_o holy_a spirit_n into_o my_o heart_n that_o may_v work_v this_o work_n in_o i_o but_o it_o may_v be_v many_o of_o you_o will_v think_v that_o you_o expect_v this_o and_o desire_v it_o and_o wish_v it_o and_o use_v some_o mean_n i_o answer_v then_o show_v it_o by_o thy_o come_n unto_o god_n for_o it_o from_o day_n to_o day_n will_v any_o

a_o ark_n certain_o we_o may_v just_o say_v that_o he_o do_v not_o look_v that_o god_n will_v deliver_v he_o therefore_o it_o be_v say_v of_o noah_n that_o as_o he_o do_v expect_v that_o god_n shall_v

a_o man_n to_o do_v good_a duty_n a_o natural_a man_n a_o unregenerate_a man_n may_v do_v they_o but_o whether_o be_v it_o natural_a to_o thou_o a_o proud_a man_n may_v do_v the_o action_n of_o

jer._n 31._o 33._o when_o god_n regenerate_v his_o people_n he_o say_v he_o will_v write_v his_o law_n in_o their_o inward_a part_n he_o do_v not_o only_o say_v they_o shall_v do_v these_o duty_n

rom._n 2._o 14._o a_o man_n by_o nature_n may_v do_v the_o thing_n command_v in_o the_o law_n but_o here_o be_v the_o question_n whether_o he_o do_v they_o with_o this_o new_a nature_n this_o

many_o wife_n so_o suppose_v they_o do_v not_o sanctify_v the_o seven_o day_n though_o we_o can_v see_v no_o proof_n that_o they_o do_v not_o yet_o this_o be_v enough_o that_o god_n do_v sanctify_v it_o before_o any_o ceremony_n be_v again_o though_o we_o do_v not_o read_v that_o they_o practise_v this_o yet_o the_o scripture_n do_v intimate_v to_o we_o that_o they_o do_v it_o the_o second_o

may_v see_v that_o the_o sabbath_n be_v speak_v of_o and_o the_o lord_n do_v find_v fault_n with_o israel_n for_o not_o keep_v of_o it_o which_o intimate_v it_o be_v a_o day_n they_o well_o know_v and_o the_o lord_n say_v afterward_o to_o moses_n how_o long_o will_v you_o refuse_v to_o keep_v my_o law_n and_o statute_n as_o in_o the_o 28._o vers_fw-la the_o lord_n there_o speak_v of_o a_o

it_o be_v not_o a_o ceremonial_a law_n but_o a_o positive_a law_n equipollent_a with_o the_o moral_a law_n a_o three_o reason_n be_v because_o it_o be_v write_v by_o 3._o the_o finger_n of_o god_n in_o tabel_n of_o stone_n and_o put_v into_o the_o ark_n exod._n 31._o 18._o and_o deut._n 10._o 12._o the_o commandment_n be_v write_v upon_o two_o table_n of_o stone_n and_o by_o the_o finger_n of_o god_n now_o all_o divine_n in_o all_o age_n agree_v upon_o this_o that_o the_o write_n of_o this_o commandment_n in_o the_o two_o table_n of_o stone_n be_v a_o evident_a argument_n of_o the_o morality_n of_o it_o for_o as_o a_o reverend_n divine_a say_v not_o to_o think_v the_o four_o commandment_n to_o be_v moral_a be_v the_o way_n to_o all_o atheism_n for_o if_o one_o shall_v say_v the_o four_o commandment_n be_v not_o moral_a but_o ceremonial_a another_o may_v step_v up_o the_o next_o year_n and_o say_v the_o second_o and_o the_o five_o be_v not_o so_o that_o whereas_o the_o law_n be_v write_v by_o the_o finger_n of_o god_n in_o table_n of_o stone_n if_o we_o root_v it_o out_o of_o the_o table_n of_o stone_n we_o shall_v root_v it_o out_o of_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n therefore_o the_o writing_n of_o it_o in_o the_o table_n of_o stone_n be_v a_o evident_a argument_n of_o the_o morality_n of_o it_o to_o all_o age_n a_o four_o argument_n be_v this_o the_o lord_n do_v urge_v 4._o this_o commandment_n more_o than_o any_o other_o commandment_n in_o the_o decalogue_n so_o that_o a_o man_n may_v question_v the_o first_o or_o second_o or_o any_o of_o the_o ten_o as_o well_o as_o this_o for_o first_o we_o know_v that_o god_n have_v make_v this_o commandment_n large_a than_o any_o of_o the_o rest_n second_o he_o have_v make_v it_o strong_a and_o urge_v it_o with_o more_o argument_n than_o any_o of_o the_o rest_n 3._o he_o have_v fix_v a_o memento_n remember_v before_o it_o as_o who_o shall_v say_v be_v careful_a of_o this_o and_o take_v heed_n of_o forget_v it_o take_v heed_n of_o those_o that_o shall_v teach_v you_o the_o contrary_a that_o this_o commandment_n be_v not_o moral_a 4._o it_o be_v negative_o deliver_v and_o affirmative_o the_o other_o deliver_v only_o one_o way_n either_o affirmative_o only_a as_o the_o five_o honour_v thy_o father_n and_o mother_n or_o else_o negative_o only_a as_o all_o the_o rest_n there_o be_v never_o a_o commandment_n deliver_v both_o negative_o and_o affirmative_o but_o only_o the_o four_o as_o remember_v the_o sabbath_n day_n to_o keep_v it_o holy_a there_o it_o be_v deliver_v affirmative_o and_o afterward_o it_o be_v deliver_v negative_o in_o it_o thou_o shall_v do_v no_o manner_n of_o work_n thou_o nor_o thy_o son_n nor_o thy_o daughter_n etc._n etc._n the_o lord_n have_v deliver_v it_o both_o way_n note_v that_o this_o commandment_n be_v equal_a and_o equipollent_a with_o the_o other_o and_o the_o lord_n do_v this_o in_o infinite_a wisdom_n because_o he_o have_v not_o write_v this_o commandment_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n therefore_o the_o lord_n do_v urge_v it_o more_o with_o argument_n that_o what_o be_v want_v in_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n may_v be_v supply_v by_o the_o press_n of_o argument_n 5._o another_o argument_n be_v because_o if_o this_o be_v 5._o not_o moral_a than_o we_o have_v not_o ten_o moral_a commandment_n there_o be_v but_o nine_o now_o this_o be_v false_a for_o the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o that_o the_o commandment_n be_v ten_o as_o deut._n 10._o 4._o it_o be_v not_o a_o ecclesiastical_a thing_n but_o the_o lord_n have_v say_v it_o as_o you_o may_v see_v there_o and_o he_o write_v upon_o the_o table_n according_a to_o the_o first_o writing_n the_o ten_o commandment_n which_o the_o lord_n speak_v unto_o you_o in_o the_o mount_n out_o of_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o fire_n the_o lord_n speak_v ten_o commandment_n now_o if_o the_o four_o commandment_n be_v not_o moral_a there_o be_v not_o ten_o commandment_n and_o you_o may_v as_o well_o deny_v the_o article_n of_o the_o faith_n and_o the_o petition_n of_o the_o lord_n prayer_n as_o the_o ten_o commandment_n the_o six_o argument_n be_v this_o christ_n tell_v we_o 6._o plain_o that_o it_o be_v a_o moral_a commandment_n matth._n 24._o 20._o pray_v say_v he_o that_o your_o flight_n be_v not_o in_o the_o winter_n nor_o on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n our_o saviour_n christ_n here_o prophesy_v of_o the_o destruction_n of_o jerusalem_n which_o be_v forty_o year_n after_o christ_n ascension_n when_o all_o ceremony_n be_v cease_v as_o

of_o your_o own_o conscience_n if_o you_o regard_v or_o fear_n god_n name_n it_o will_v grieve_v you_o to_o fly_v on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n whereby_o you_o shall_v be_v deprive_v of_o the_o

not_o have_v wish_v they_o to_o pray_v that_o it_o may_v not_o be_v upon_o that_o day_n now_o whereas_o our_o saviour_n do_v so_o often_o condemn_v the_o pharisee_n in_o regard_n of_o their_o

very_a 7._o heathen_a themselves_o have_v ever_o keep_v a_o sabbath_n day_n though_o they_o can_v not_o tell_v which_o the_o day_n be_v some_o keep_v the_o eight_o day_n and_o some_o the_o nine_o yet_o they_o ever_o keep_v a_o sabbath_n day_n yea_o it_o be_v certain_a many_o of_o the_o heathen_a themselves_o keep_v the_o sabbath_n after_o their_o manner_n alexandrinus_n a_o godly_a father_n that_o live_v but_o a_o little_a after_o christ_n say_v that_o the_o heathen_a do_v count_v the_o seven_o day_n a_o holy_a day_n and_o it_o be_v relate_v of_o alexander_n severus_n emperor_n of_o rome_n though_o he_o be_v a_o pagan_a and_o infidel_n yet_o every_o sabbath_n day_n he_o retire_v from_o his_o warlike_a affair_n and_o go_v up_o into_o the_o capitol_n to_o worship_v his_o god_n and_o it_o be_v report_v again_o in_o heathen_a history_n our_o boy_n go_v not_o to_o school_n upon_o the_o sabbath_n day_n neither_o be_v humane_a art_n teach_v on_o that_o day_n but_o we_o have_v a_o rest_n upon_o that_o day_n nay_o some_o of_o the_o heathen_n tell_v we_o that_o they_o keep_v it_o from_o the_o creation_n therefore_o philo_n tell_v we_o that_o the_o sabbath_n day_n be_v the_o creation_n day_n and_o divers_a other_o poor_a people_n that_o never_o have_v scripture_n or_o prophet_n or_o minister_n among_o they_o but_o go_v mere_o by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n and_o what_o they_o have_v learn_v from_o their_o ancestor_n and_o father_n they_o do_v keep_v the_o sabbath_n day_n nay_o one_o of_o they_o say_v that_o on_o the_o seven_o day_n all_o the_o host_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n be_v finish_v therefore_o see_v the_o very_a heathen_a have_v learned_a to_o keep_v this_o day_n holy_a it_o be_v a_o evident_a argument_n that_o this_o be_v a_o moral_a commandment_n i_o conclude_v the_o proof_n of_o this_o point_n with_o the_o say_n of_o our_o saviour_n christ_n mat._n 5._o 18._o heaven_n and_o earth_n shall_v pass_v away_o but_o not_o one_o jot_n or_o title_n of_o the_o law_n shall_v pass_v away_o mark_v our_o saviour_n say_v there_o that_o there_o shall_v not_o one_o jot_n or_o title_n of_o the_o decalogue_n pass_v away_o as_o for_o the_o ceremonial_a and_o judicial_a law_n they_o stand_v not_o still_o but_o the_o whole_a compass_n of_o they_o be_v remove_v the_o ceremonial_a law_n be_v quite_o and_o clean_o abolish_v and_o the_o judicial_a law_n in_o many_o particular_n therefore_o our_o saviour_n mean_v it_o not_o of_o those_o two_o law_n but_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o decalogue_n and_o he_o say_v heaven_n and_o earth_n shall_v pass_v away_o before_o one_o jot_n of_o it_o shall_v pass_v away_o much_o less_o a_o whole_a branch_n be_v root_v out_o and_o gal._n 3._o 10._o the_o apostle_n say_v curse_v be_v every_o one_o that_o continue_v
