be_v from_o a_o plain_a contempt_n of_o god_n and_o his_o church_n in_o so_o slight_v their_o precept_n thus_o if_o the_o rechabite_v have_v drink_v wine_n though_o in_o itself_o good_a they_o have_v defile_v themselves_o because_o it_o be_v against_o the_o command_v of_o their_o father_n and_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o god_n approve_v their_o abstinence_n for_o that_o very_a reason_n and_o pronounce_v a_o blessing_n to_o the_o whole_a family_n for_o be_v obedient_a to_o the_o precept_n of_o jonadab_n their_o â—_z in_o the_o like_a manner_n the_o angel_n gabriel_n foretell_v of_o john_n

say_v the_o apostle_n in_o those_o word_n that_o you_o so_o much_o insist_v upon_o mean_v only_o that_o he_o will_v not_o have_v such_o a_o judicial_a observance_n continue_v among_o christian_n as_o to_o hold_v some_o meat_n absolute_o unlawful_a and_o perpetual_o forbid_v as_o swine_n flesh_n except_v only_o what_o be_v decree_v against_o in_o the_o council_n of_o the_o apostle_n â—_z act_n â—_z but_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n believe_v every_o creature_n of_o god_n to_o be_v good_a though_o for_o a_o while_n and_o to_o mortify_v the_o old_a man_n he_o command_v a_o abstinence_n from_o some_o again_o the_o apostle_n speak_v not_o here_o at_o all_o of_o fast_v or_o mortification_n of_o the_o flesh_n but_o because_o certain_a heretic_n there_o be_v that_o hold_v some_o creature_n to_o proceed_v from_o a_o evil_a principle_n the_o apostle_n go_v about_o to_o beat_v down_o that_o opinion_n and_o tell_v they_o 4._o 1_o tim._n 4._o that_o every_o creature_n of_o god_n be_v good_a to_o

signification_n only_o though_o the_o jew_n be_v so_o sottish_a as_o to_o believe_v that_o they_o be_v so_o in_o their_o one_o nature_n this_o error_n the_o apostle_n go_v about_o to_o destroy_v say_v to_o the_o faithful_a all_o thing_n be_v pure_a and_o so_o by_o consequence_n to_o be_v eat_v in_o their_o season_n but_o that_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a to_o abstain_v from_o a_o sort_n of_o lawful_a meat_n for_o a_o certain_a time_n be_v a_o wonder_n to_o i_o how_o you_o can_v draw_v into_o that_o apostle_n sense_n who_o be_v himself_o as_o he_o say_v so_o often_o in_o fasting_n and_o some_o of_o the_o father_n as_o i_o have_v read_v in_o story_n never_o drink_v wine_n or_o eat_v flesh_n in_o all_o their_o life_n to_o the_o four_o i_o answer_v in_o the_o like_a manner_n that_o the_o holy_a apostle_n will_v not_o have_v his_o collosstan_n nor_o any_o other_o faithful_a christian_n judge_v about_o meat_n and_o drink_n and_o holy_a day_n after_o the_o old_a jewish_a fashion_n and_o not_o a_o word_n of_o fast_v there_o to_o the_o five_o i_o shall_v free_o grant_v to_o you_o that_o it_o be_v by_o the_o spirit_n that_o we_o be_v to_o mortify_v the_o deed_n of_o the_o flesh_n but_o i_o must_v tell_v you_o again_o that_o the_o spirit_n receive_v strength_n from_o the_o weaken_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o crusify_v of_o it_o with_o fast_v as_o the_o apostle_n himself_o who_o you_o urge_v explain_v it_o to_o the_o gallatian_n 5.23.24_o gal._n 5.23.24_o when_o he_o first_o tell_v they_o that_o temperance_n be_v the_o fruit_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o after_o assure_v they_o that_o they_o who_o be_v christ_n have_v crucify_v the_o flesh_n with_o the_o affection_n and_o lust_n etc._n etc._n but_o above_o all_o i_o pray_v you_o observe_v what_o he_o say_v to_o the_o corinthian_n 27._o 1_o cor._n 9.25_o 26_o 27._o and_o every_o man_n that_o strive_v for_o the_o mastery_n be_v temperate_a in_o all_o thing_n etc._n etc._n i_o therefore_o so_o run_v not_o as_o

preach_v to_o other_o i_o myself_o shall_v be_v a_o cast_v away_o thus_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o s._n paul_n think_v that_o he_o advance_v the_o vigour_n of_o his_o spirit_n by_o his_o subjugation_n of_o his_o flesh_n to_o the_o six_o and_o last_o as_o for_o your_o pretence_n of_o christian_a liberty_n i_o have_v show_v you_o plain_o before_o that_o it_o pertain_v not_o a_o jot_n to_o this_o purpose_n as_o for_o what_o you_o say_v that_o jesus_n christ_n himself_o never_o make_v any_o distinction_n of_o meat_n nor_o command_v any_o such_o thing_n i_o grant_v it_o for_o he_o employ_v himself_o whilst_o he_o be_v on_o earth_n in_o matter_n of_o great_a moment_n to_o our_o salvation_n and_o leave_v those_o thing_n which_o be_v to_o expedite_v and_o promote_v our_o way_n to_o heaven_n to_o the_o direction_n and_o government_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n that_o be_v to_o animate_v his_o whole_a church_n beside_o though_o our_o saviour_n say_v nothing_o of_o distinction_n of_o meat_n he_o do_v not_o withstand_v much_o of_o fast_v and_o to_o give_v we_o example_n do_v most_o miraculous_o practice_v it_o in_o his_o own_o person_n so_o now_o i_o presume_v you_o will_v give_v i_o leave_v to_o prove_v my_o part_n and_o first_o i_o prove_v that_o the_o church_n do_v lawful_o forbid_v certain_a meat_n for_o certain_a time_n by_o express_a scripture_n thus_o first_o the_o apostle_n themselves_o be_v assemble_v in_o counsel_n lay_v a_o injunction_n upon_o all_o christian_n solemn_o so_o to_o do_v in_o these_o word_n for_o it_o seem_v good_a unto_o the_o holy_a

be_v evil_a for_o that_o man_n who_o cate_v with_o offence_n it_o be_v good_a neither_o to_o eat_v flesh_n nor_o to_o drink_v wine_n nor_o any_o thing_n whereby_o thy_o brother_n stumble_v or_o be_v
