from_o the_o name_n that_o this_o day_n be_v call_v lord_n day_n but_o how_o they_o will_v frame_v a_o argument_n from_o this_o name_n lord_n day_n to_o prove_v it_o a_o sabbath_n day_n i_o can_v devise_v thouch_v their_o collection_n from_o this_o name_n i_o answer_v 1._o let_v they_o remember_v that_o since_o they_o have_v not_o come_v from_o christ_n for_o this_o day_n &_o therefore_o be_v put_v too_o it_o to_o magnify_v their_o reason_n &_o consequence_n provide_v they_o be_v necessary_a consequence_n as_o they_o speak_v let_v they_o not_o forget_v i_o say_v when_o they_o bring_v we_o a_o reason_n hence_o that_o it_o be_v not_o a_o probable_a one_o but_o one_o of_o their_o necessary_a consequence_n if_o i_o mistake_v i_o nor_o they_o shall_v find_v some_o what_o to_o do_v to_o prove_v necessary_o from_o the_o bare_a name_n of_o a_o thing_n 2._o see_v that_o paul_n do_v voluntary_o omit_v the_o keep_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n when_o he_o may_v have_v keep_v it_o if_o he_o will_v but_o have_v speak_v the_o word_n as_o have_v be_v show_v out_o of_o act._n 13.14.42.44_o there_o be_v no_o probability_n therefore_o to_o think_v that_o any_o thing_n shall_v be_v intimate_v here_o in_o these_o word_n lord_n day_n to_o declare_v this_o day_n now_o to_o be_v a_o sabbath_n day_n 3._o forasmuch_o as_o it_o shall_v hereafter_o be_v prove_v out_o of_o m._n perkins_n that_o sundry_a of_o the_o primitive_a church_n do_v not_o observe_v the_o lord_n day_n for_o 300_o year_n after_o s._n johns_n time_n who_o can_v think_v that_o in_o this_o text_n s._n john_n do_v ratify_v the_o lord_n day_n for_o a_o sabbath_n when_o the_o christian_a church_n which_o immediate_o succeed_v he_o be_v ignorant_a of_o it_o further_o forasmuch_o as_o our_o saviour_n christ_n the_o lord_n of_o this_o lord_n day_n do_v make_v it_o a_o travail_a day_n when_o he_o be_v upon_o the_o earth_n it_o can_v be_v think_v that_o s._n john_n do_v intimate_v by_o these_o word_n lord_n day_n that_o it_o shall_v be_v keep_v as_o a_o rest_a day_n or_o sabbath_n day_n unless_o you_o suppose_v that_o john_n the_o servant_n put_v holiness_n in_o that_o day_n wherein_o christ_n his_o lord_n put_v none_o 4._o you_o have_v a_o text_n in_o mat._n 24.10_o beside_o many_o other_o in_o act._n 13.42.44_o act._n 16.13_o act._n 17.2_o act._n 18.4_o pray_v that_o your_o flight_n be_v not_o in_o the_o winter_n neither_o on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n where_o our_o saviour_n christ_n allow_v a_o conscience_n to_o be_v make_v of_o fly_v &_o travail_v on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n that_o be_v the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n and_o that_o 40_o year_n after_o his_o death_n be_v the_o patroness_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n but_o as_o willing_a to_o embrace_v the_o lord_n sabbath_n as_o they_o be_v to_o uphould_v the_o lord_n day_n here_o be_v a_o text_n for_o they_o that_o have_v by_o far_o more_o probability_n of_o truth_n than_o this_o text_n have_v revel_v 1.10_o but_o they_o bewray_v their_o partiality_n when_o they_o will_v refuse_v that_o which_o have_v better_a ground_n in_o god_n word_n and_o embrace_v that_o which_o have_v worse_a ground_n yea_o no_o ground_n at_o all_o 5._o it_o be_v a_o rule_n in_o expound_v of_o scripture_n that_o word_n that_o be_v some_o what_o ambiguouse_a and_o doubtful_a be_v so_o construe_v and_o expound_v as_o that_o they_o do_v not_o contradict_v some_o other_o plain_a &_o express_v text_n of_o scripture_n now_o in_o the_o four_o com._n we_o have_v a_o most_o express_a &_o plain_a scripture_n never_o yet_o repeal_v six_o day_n shall_v thou_o labour_v now_o this_o lord_n day_n be_v the_o first_o of_o these_o six_o day_n wherefore_o these_o word_n lord_n day_n must_v not_o be_v so_o expound_v as_o if_o we_o shall_v rest_v from_o labour_n on_o this_o day_n for_o so_o we_o make_v a_o contradiction_n in_o scripture_n by_o set_v this_o text_n against_o the_o 4_o com._n i_o come_v now_o to_o answer_v more_o direct_o &_o first_o for_o this_o name_n lord_n day_n they_o take_v it_o for_o grant_v that_o s._n john_n mean_v it_o of_o our_o sunday_n or_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n but_o it_o may_v bedoubted_a of_o for_o our_o saviour_n christ_n be_v lord_n of_o the_o old_a sabbath_n the_o son_n of_o man_n be_v lord_n even_o of_o the_o sabbath_n mark_n 2.28_o wherefore_o the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n may_v true_o be_v call_v the_o lord_n day_n now_o be_v it_o that_o our_o sunday_n or_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n may_v also_o becal_v lord_n day_n because_o christ_n our_o lord_n rise_v on_o it_o so_o then_o if_o both_o the_o seven_o day_n of_o the_o week_n and_o also_o the_o 8_o day_n of_o the_o week_n may_v both_o be_v call_v lord_n day_n it_o be_v your_o part_n then_o to_o prove_v that_o by_o lord_n day_n s._n john_n mean_v that_o lord_n day_n which_o be_v our_o sunday_n it_o may_v be_v he_o mean_v it_o of_o the_o lord_n day_n which_o be_v saturday_n suppose_v we_o not_o with_o stand_v that_o s._n john_n mean_v it_o of_o our_o sunday_n what_o argument_n can_v thence_o be_v collect_v m._n perkins_n in_o his_o case_n of_o conscience_n chap._n 16._o sect._n 2._o argue_v thus_o that_o this_o day_n be_v call_v the_o lord_n day_n as_o the_o last_o supper_n of_o christ_n be_v call_v the_o lord_n supper_n and_o that_o for_o this_o cause_n that_o as_o christ_n do_v substitute_n the_o last_o supper_n in_o room_n of_o the_o passover_n so_o he_o substitute_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n in_o room_n of_o the_o jew_n sabbath_n to_o be_v a_o day_n set_v a_o part_n for_o his_o own_o worship_n touch_v this_o argument_n i_o shall_v not_o need_n give_v any_o other_o answer_n than_o that_o reverend_a divine_a have_v put_v into_o my_o mouth_n for_o he_o do_v ingenuous_o confess_v it_o in_o the_o same_o place_n that_o this_o be_v but_o a_o probable_a argument_n say_v i_o suppose_v for_o in_o these_o point_n still_o we_o must_v go_v by_o liklihood_n that_o this_o day_n be_v call_v the_o lord_n day_n as_o the_o last_o supper_n of_o christ_n be_v call_v the_o lord_n supper_n etc._n etc._n well_o if_o then_o there_o can_v be_v no_o argument_n draw_v from_o this_o name_n lord_n day_n but_o supposition_n &_o likelihoode_n what_o have_v we_o to_o do_v with_o they_o these_o be_v no_o necessary_a consequence_n for_o how_o shall_v a_o minister_n with_o a_o safe_a conscience_n press_v man_n peremptory_o &_o necessary_o to_o a_o certain_a keep_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n upon_o probable_a supposition_n likelihood_n &_o uncertainty_n can_v a_o uncertain_a &_o doubtful_a argument_n bound_v man_n unto_o a_o certain_a &_o undoubted_a practice_n minister_n must_v have_v a_o care_n and_o make_v a_o conscience_n of_o it_o that_o they_o do_v not_o bound_v man_n conscience_n strait_o than_o god_n word_n do_v when_o god_n speak_v probable_o &_o doubtful_o they_o must_v not_o speak_v peremptory_o &_o certain_o this_o be_v to_o make_v god_n law_n straight_a than_o they_o be_v if_o therefore_o it_o be_v but_o a_o likely_a matter_n that_o the_o lord_n day_n be_v a_o sabbath_n let_v minister_n leave_v it_o &_o deliver_v it_o to_o people_n but_o as_o a_o likely_a thing_n so_o as_o if_o they_o profane_v it_o it_o can_v be_v say_v for_o certain_a that_o they_o sin_n in_o profane_v it_o but_o minister_n now_o a_o day_n be_v go_v beyond_o perkins_n where_o he_o see_v but_o likelihood_n they_o do_v see_v certainty_n &_o dare_v from_o such_o text_n as_o these_o press_v man_n conscience_n to_o the_o certain_a &_o peremptory_a keep_v this_o lord_n day_n upon_o pain_n of_o

let_v they_o not_o suffer_v their_o conscience_n to_o be_v snare_v bind_v and_o enthral_v touch_v the_o lord_n day_n by_o such_o argument_n as_o these_o yet_o further_o that_o the_o vanity_n of_o this_o their_o collection_n from_o the_o name_n lord_n day_n may_v appear_v see_v it_o by_o the_o like_a of_o the_o day_n call_v the_o passover_o day_n &_o of_o pentecost_n day_n &_o of_o the_o action_n call_v the_o lord_n supper_n have_v not_o god_n add_v his_o word_n &_o com._n to_o these_o day_n &_o to_o this_o action_n thereby_o declare_v unto_o we_o what_o use_v we_o shall_v make_v of_o these_o day_n &_o of_o this_o action_n who_o can_v from_o these_o name_n only_o have_v collect_v the_o use_n of_o these_o day_n &_o of_o the_o lord_n supper_n even_o so_o it_o be_v here_o s._n john_n

then_o he_o will_v have_v a_o account_n of_o his_o whole_a law_n not_o of_o piece_n and_o parcel_n of_o it_o as_o we_o please_v thus_o we_o see_v what_o the_o duty_n of_o minister_n be_v namely_o to_o teach_v the_o people_n to_o observe_v the_o lord_n seven_o day_n sabbath_n which_o be_v one_o of_o the_o commandment_n though_o you_o make_v it_o the_o least_o and_o it_o be_v their_o duty_n also_o if_o they_o will_v be_v free_v of_o christ_n his_o curse_n to_o observe_v &_o keep_v the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n before_o the_o people_n so_o lead_v they_o by_o lief_a &_o doctrine_n together_o but_o how_o sarre_o off_o be_v the_o practice_n of_o most_o teacher_n from_o observe_v the_o mind_n &_o will_n of_o christ_n in_o stead_n of_o practise_v the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n in_o their_o own_o person_n for_o example_n unto_o other_o they_o can_v be_v content_a to_o persecute_v any_o that_o they_o see_v forward_o this_o way_n oh_o fearful_a in_o stead_n of_o teach_v the_o people_n this_o which_o they_o count_v the_o least_o of_o god_n commandment_n &_o urge_v they_o to_o keep_v every_o jot_n and_o title_n of_o god_n law_n &_o so_o the_o lord_n sabbath_n day_n they_o teach_v open_o &_o public_o the_o quite_o contrary_a as_o namely_o that_o this_o least_o of_o god_n commandment_n it_o be_v abolish_v and_o that_o the_o sabbath_n day_n command_v it_o be_v abolish_v thus_o this_o least_o of_o god_n commandment_n be_v trample_v down_o because_o it_o be_v a_o little_a one_o &_o a_o ceremonial_a one_o &_o a_o circumstantial_a one_o &_o not_o the_o law_n of_o nation_n nor_o find_v now_o in_o the_o heart_n off_o all_o man_n fall_v &_o corrupt_v as_o a_o law_n of_o nature_n and_o because_o command_v to_o the_o jew_n and_o the_o like_a but_o what_o soever_o be_v their_o

wherefore_o who_o soever_o teach_v in_o opposition_n to_o this_o sabbath_n day_n he_o bewray_v himself_o to_o be_v no_o friend_n of_o christ_n and_o that_o he_o regard_v not_o his_o mind_n and_o

44._o now_o it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o these_o gentile_n be_v convert_v believer_n as_o the_o text_n bewray_v v._o 42.43_o and_o it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v also_o that_o this_o day_n be_v saturday_n on_o which_o they_o thus_o desire_v paul_n &_o barnabas_n to_o preach_v unto_o they_o these_o word_n the_o next_o sabbath_n day_n that_o the_o next_o day_n after_o their_o petition_n be_v sunday_n or_o lord_n day_n this_o be_v the_o christian_a sabbath_n day_n if_o any_o such_o they_o have_v and_o this_o be_v the_o proper_a sabbath_n day_n for_o these_o believe_a gentile_n if_o any_o such_o there_o be_v wherefore_o 1._o it_o seem_v that_o these_o believe_a gentile_n be_v utter_o ignorant_a of_o any_o such_o new_a sabbath_n for_o else_o they_o will_v have_v desire_v paul_n &_o barnabas_n to_o have_v preach_v unto_o they_o the_o next_o day_n not_o the_o next_o sabbath_n day_n the_o next_o lord_n day_n not_o the_o next_o sabbath_n day_n for_o they_o be_v a_o hungry_a &_o find_v a_o sharp_a appetit_fw-la to_o paul_n doctrine_n will_v not_o have_v fast_v for_o it_o 7._o or_o 8._o day_n until_o the_o next_o sabbath_n day_n but_o will_v rather_o have_v be_v feed_v with_o it_o on_o the_o next_o morrow_n the_o day_n after_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n day_n and_o appoint_v for_o sermon_n &_o sabbath_n day_n but_o in_o as_o much_o as_o they_o desire_v it_o not_o on_o the_o lord_n day_n it_o argue_v that_o these_o christian_n know_v not_o of_o any_o such_o new_a sabbath_n as_o now_o we_o know_v &_o keep_v on_o the_o lord_n day_n 2._o see_v it_o be_v the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o apostle_n to_o acquaint_v the_o church_n with_o the_o new_a ordinance_n of_o christ_n upon_o the_o first_o opportunity_n as_o we_o see_v they_o baptize_v those_o that_o be_v but_o new_o convert_v act._n 2.41_o therefore_o we_o be_v to_o think_v that_o if_o these_o believe_a gentile_n have_v neglect_v their_o duty_n or_o have_v not_o former_o be_v teach_v that_o the_o lord_n day_n be_v their_o new_a sabbath_n yet_o now_o paul_n &_o barnabas_n if_o the_o one_o forget_v it_o the_o other_o may_v mind_v it_o they_o have_v a_o most_o fit_a opportunity_n to_o reveal_v to_o these_o believe_a gentile_n their_o new_a sabbath_n day_n they_o may_v have_v take_v a_o fit_a occasion_n to_o have_v answer_v their_o suit_n thus_o what_o do_v you_o desire_v to_o hear_v the_o same_o doctrine_n again_o the_o next_o sabbath_n day_n why_o you_o need_v not_o stay_v so_o long_o that_o be_v 7_o or_o 8_o day_n hence_o and_o that_o be_v judaisme_n &_o the_o jewish_a sabbath_n day_n etc._n etc._n but_o to_o morrow_n that_o be_v the_o lord_n day_n &_o that_o be_v your_o sabbath_n day_n see_v you_o be_v christian_n assemble_v yourselves_o together_o therefore_o to_o morrow_n and_o then_o you_o shall_v hear_v the_o same_o word_n preach_v again_o so_o the_o apostle_n have_v sit_v occasion_n to_o have_v inform_v these_o disciple_n at_o antioch_n of_o their_o new_a sabbath_n if_o there_o have_v be_v any_o nay_o i_o can_v see_v how_o with_o discharge_n of_o their_o function_n they_o can_v have_v omit_v such_o a_o occasion_n beside_o as_o i_o say_v the_o apostle_n may_v have_v keep_v this_o lord_n day_n here_o if_o they_o will_v for_o nothing_o hinder_v forasmuch_o as_o these_o gentile_n be_v suitor_n unto_o the_o apostle_n to_o preach_v unto_o they_o it_o be_v at_o the_o apostle_n liberty_n to_o appoint_v the_o day_n and_o time_n when_o and_o the_o soon_o the_o rather_o if_o therefore_o here_o be_v fit_a opportunity_n &_o also_o it_o be_v at_o the_o apostle_n liberty_n to_o appoint_v the_o lord_n day_n to_o preach_v in_o and_o to_o assemble_v the_o church_n on_o that_o day_n and_o yet_o for_o all_o this_o do_v not_o appoint_v the_o lord_n day_n who_o can_v think_v that_o the_o apostle_n paul_n and_o barnabas_n esteem_v the_o lord_n day_n to_o be_v sabbath_n day_n and_o hereby_o it_o appear_v also_o that_o paul_n keep_v not_o this_o lord_n day_n constant_o at_o all_o time_n and_o in_o all_o place_n which_o be_v a_o argument_n that_o when_o paul_n do_v preach_v on_o the_o lord_n day_n as_o here_o he_o do_v at_o troas_n act._n 20.7_o that_o he_o keep_v it_o not_o for_o a_o sabbath_n day_n for_o than_o he_o will_v have_v keep_v every_o lord_n day_n where_o ever_o he_o come_v as_o well_o as_o this_o one_o at_o troas_n and_o this_o be_v my_o first_o answer_n 2._o i_o answer_v whereas_o the_o patroness_n of_o this_o new_a sabbath_n take_v it_o for_o grant_v that_o paul_n sermon_n and_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v action_n perform_v on_o the_o lord_n day_n or_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n this_o i_o deny_v they_o &_o this_o they_o must_v prove_v for_o it_o will_v be_v find_v that_o both_o the_o sermon_n and_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v do_v in_o the_o night_n time_n which_o be_v no_o part_n of_o the_o day_n and_o consequent_o that_o these_o action_n be_v not_o do_v on_o the_o lord_n day_n i_o confess_v the_o disciple_n meet_v on_o the_o lord_n day_n or_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n but_o it_o follow_v not_o thence_o that_o therefore_o paul_n preach_v &_o administer_v the_o lord_n supper_n on_o this_o first_o day_n wherein_o they_o assemble_v that_o this_o be_v no_o paradox_n you_o shall_v see_v the_o text_n give_v i_o light_a unto_o this_o answer_n as_o for_o paul_n sermon_n that_o this_o be_v perform_v in_o the_o night_n time_n after_o the_o lord_n day_n be_v pass_v see_v the_o text_n which_o say_v there_o be_v many_o light_n in_o a_o upper_a chamber_n where_o they_o be_v assemble_v v._o 8._o ergo_fw-la it_o be_v in_o the_o night_n time_n that_o they_o be_v assemble_v again_o the_o text_n say_v that_o paul_n continue_v his_o preach_n unto_o midnight_n v._o 7._o wherefore_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o paul_n sermon_n be_v in_o the_o night_n further_o as_o for_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n it_o be_v in_o those_o day_n a_o evening_n or_o night_n work_n see_v mark_n 14.17.22_o 1_o cor._n 11.21_o and_o paul_n do_v not_o celebrate_v the_o lord_n supper_n in_o all_o liklihood_n until_o midnight_n after_o his_o sermon_n be_v finish_v see_v act._n 20.11_o so_o both_o the_o sermon_n and_o the_o sacrament_n be_v perform_v in_o the_o night_n it_o be_v lik_o also_o that_o the_o disciple_n here_o at_o troas_n assemble_v not_o in_o the_o morning_n but_o in_o the_o latter_a end_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n about_o the_o shut_n in_o of_o the_o day_n for_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o text_n that_o the_o disciple_n come_v together_o to_o break_v bread_n v._o 7._o that_o be_v to_o receive_v the_o lord_n supper_n now_o forasmuch_o as_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v a_o evening_n or_o night_n work_n in_o those_o day_n as_o have_v be_v prove_v it_o be_v to_o be_v think_v that_o when_o the_o disciple_n meet_v to_o eat_v the_o lord_n supper_n that_o they_o meet_v not_o in_o the_o morning_n or_o at_o breakfast_n time_n to_o eat_v their_o supper_n but_o at_o supper_n time_n and_o at_o evening_n time_n at_o the_o end_n of_o the_o day_n again_o the_o text_n say_v paul_n continue_v his_o preach_n until_o midnight_n now_o it_o be_v a_o most_o unreasonable_a thing_n to_o imagine_v that_o paul_n shall_v begin_v his_o sermon_n in_o the_o morning_n about_o 8_o of_o the_o clock_n &_o continue_v his_o preach_n until_o midnight_n it_o be_v never_o hear_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o sermon_n make_v of_o sixteen_o hour_n long_o wherefore_o it_o be_v the_o most_o likely_a that_o paul_n may_v begin_v his_o sermon_n after_o supper_n about_o 9_o or_o 10_o a_o clock_n at_o night_n &_o so_o hold_v on_o till_o midnight_n there_o be_v no_o likely_a hood_n therefore_o that_o paul_n preach_v in_o the_o day_n time_n much_o less_o that_o he_o begin_v in_o the_o morning_n unless_o you_o will_v absurd_o imagine_v that_o the_o disciple_n meet_v at_o breakfast_n time_n to_o go_v to_o supper_n and_o also_o that_o paul_n preach_v a_o sermon_n of_o 16._o hour_n long_o which_o no_o auditor_n can_v bear_v with_o patience_n &_o profit_n neither_o will_v that_o hinder_v this_o in_o that_o the_o text_n say_v that_o the_o disciple_n meet_v on_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n v._n 7._o for_o as_o a_o man_n may_v be_v say_v to_o pay_v a_o sum_n of_o money_n on_o such_o a_o day_n though_o he_o
pay_v it_o not_o till_o a_o quarter_n of_o a_o hour_n before_o sune_n set_v so_o may_v they_o be_v say_v to_o mete_v on_o the_o first_o day_n albeit_o it_o be_v not_o till_o the_o very_a last_o point_n of_o the_o day_n now_o i_o hold_v that_o the_o night_n be_v no_o part_n of_o the_o day_n as_o former_o i_o have_v show_v in_o the_o exposition_n of_o the_o four_o comm_n nor_o be_v the_o night_n to_o be_v count_v &_o reckon_v for_o any_o part_n of_o the_o day_n go_v before_o it_o so_o then_o this_o text_n make_v nothing_o at_o all_o for_o the_o lord_n day_n all_o that_o they_o can_v hence_o collect_v be_v no_o more_o but_o this_o that_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o keep_v every_o 8_o day_n night_n or_o every_o lord_n day_n night_n for_o a_o sabbath_n night_n and_o that_o we_o must_v preach_v as_o paul_n do_v till_o midnight_n etc._n etc._n wherefore_o if_o they_o will_v have_v it_o that_o paul_n sermon_n &_o their_o assemble_v begin_v in_o the_o morning_n let_v they_o prove_v it_o for_o the_o text_n have_v no_o such_o thing_n in_o it_o i_o know_v they_o be_v ready_a to_o say_v these_o be_v time_n of_o persecution_n and_o they_o can_v not_o meet_v till_o night_n for_o fear_n etc._n etc._n but_o the_o text_n have_v nothing_o of_o any_o persecution_n now_o at_o troas_n and_o again_o since_o they_o meet_v to_o receive_v the_o lord_n supper_n there_o be_v no_o need_n for_o they_o to_o meet_v in_o the_o day_n time_n or_o morning_n for_o that_o the_o evening_n be_v soon_o enough_o let_v they_o prove_v that_o the_o disciple_n will_v have_v meet_v soon_o but_o for_o fear_n if_o they_o can_v and_o last_o have_v fear_n of_o persecution_n hinder_v they_o than_o will_v they_o not_o have_v meet_v on_o the_o first_o day_n etc._n etc._n in_o the_o day_n time_n lest_o they_o shall_v be_v see_v walk_v in_o the_o street_n &_o enter_v into_o the_o common_a house_n of_o assembly_n they_o then_o will_v rather_o have_v meet_v er_o before_o day_n light_n or_o late_o after_o the_o day_n be_v shut_v in_o lest_o they_o shall_v be_v see_v etc._n etc._n but_o they_o assemble_v in_o the_o day_n time_n &_o therefore_o no_o fear_n of_o persecutor_n 3._o i_o answer_n admit_v that_o they_o meet_v in_o the_o morning_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n &_o that_o the_o sermon_n &_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v administer_v in_o the_o day_n time_n yet_o what_o make_v this_o for_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

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 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

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

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

miracle_n for_o this_o purpose_n ij_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v consider_v the_o one_o be_v that_o it_o be_v a_o duty_n which_o god_n require_v of_o we_o to_o magnify_v &_o praise_v the_o name_n of_o

wherefore_o as_o we_o will_v approve_v &_o testify_v our_o thankfulness_n to_o god_n for_o so_o great_a a_o blessing_n as_o the_o creation_n be_v unto_o we_o and_o as_o we_o desire_v to_o give_v god_n

the_o doctrine_n which_o teach_v &_o affirm_v that_o that_o ancient_a ordinance_n of_o god_n the_o old_a sabbath_n day_n be_v a_o ceremony_n &_o abolish_v be_v erroniouse_a &_o false_a for_o the_o

i_o come_v therefore_o unto_o the_o minor_a to_o show_v that_o they_o which_o hold_v the_o old_a sabbath_n day_n to_o be_v a_o ceremony_n they_o make_v one_o of_o god_n ten_o command_n &_o by_o name_n

read_v of_o god_n word_n for_o we_o have_v they_o enjoin_v in_o the_o affirmative_a part_n of_o the_o second_o commandment_n thus_o for_o the_o first_o point_n you_o see_v that_o as_o touch_v the_o duty_n of_o holy_a exercise_n the_o four_o come_v injoin_v nothing_o but_o what_o be_v before_o enjoin_v in_o the_o 2th_o come_v and_o so_o the_o four_o command_n in_o thes_n respect_n be_v but_o a_o

be_v enjoin_v in_o the_o sixth_o commandment_n in_o the_o affirmative_a part_n thereof_o but_o if_o you_o consider_v it_o as_o a_o spiritual_a rest_n it_o be_v a_o vacancy_n from_o corporal_a labour_n that_o so_o way_n may_v be_v make_v for_o holy_a exercise_n then_o so_o it_o be_v enjoin_v in_o the_o second_o commandment_n also_o for_o when_o the_o second_o commandment_n injoin_v god_n worship_n it_o necessary_o infer_v a_o rest_n and_o cessation_n from_o how_o shall_v and_o field_n work_v from_o merchandize_v buy_v and_o sell_v that_o so_o man_n may_v be_v at_o liberty_n &_o freedom_n to_o

the_o four_o con_v in_o this_o point_n be_v but_o a_o tautology_n and_o needless_a repetition_n of_o what_o be_v else_o where_o enjoin_v in_o other_o of_o the_o 10_o commandment_n the_o three_o &_o

nor_o can_v they_o show_v we_o any_o thing_n in_o it_o as_o now_o which_o be_v not_o else_o where_o command_v in_o the_o decalogue_n thus_o you_o see_v if_o you_o hold_v the_o old_a sabbath_n day_n to_o be_v abolish_v
not_o as_o lord_n day_n but_o as_o pentecost_n day_n be_v our_o new_a sabbath_n day_n suppose_v we_o that_o upon_o a_o friday_n there_o fall_v ij_o holy_a day_n the_o one_o gowry_n day_n the_o other_o
