they_o last_o this_o be_v the_o sum_n and_o scope_n of_o all_o the_o 4._o law_n of_o righteousness_n it_o be_v the_o very_a drift_n and_o end_n of_o all_o the_o ten_o commandment_n the_o lord_n have_v set_v down_o in_o the_o decalogue_n his_o whole_a will_n and_o pleasure_n what_o we_o be_v to_o do_v all_o the_o day_n of_o our_o life_n this_o day_n and_o that_o day_n as_o long_o as_o we_o live_v and_o there_o be_v no_o set_a time_n but_o that_o we_o shall_v always_o obey_v it_o and_o this_o be_v the_o practice_n of_o the_o godly_a always_o to_o keep_v his_o commandment_n as_o david_n psal_n 16._o 8._o he_o set_v the_o lord_n always_o before_o he_o that_o be_v every_o day_n he_o do_v make_v it_o a_o holy_a day_n that_o he_o may_v walk_v as_o in_o god_n presence_n and_o live_v as_o in_o god_n court_n that_o he_o may_v do_v all_o his_o worldly_a business_n as_o in_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n the_o four_o proposition_n be_v this_o as_o there_o must_v worship_n be_v a_o set_a time_n every_o day_n and_o we_o be_v to_o keep_v every_o day_n as_o a_o sabbath_n day_n in_o some_o sense_n so_o there_o must_v be_v a_o particular_a special_a day_n set_v apart_o for_o god_n immediate_a worship_n and_o service_n this_o be_v the_o next_o proposition_n i_o will_v prove_v unto_o you_o for_o though_o every_o day_n be_v to_o be_v a_o sabbath_n day_n yet_o we_o have_v particular_a calling_n and_o we_o have_v business_n in_o the_o world_n to_o employ_v ourselves_o about_o so_o that_o we_o can_v be_v every_o day_n hear_v of_o the_o word_n and_o employ_v ourselves_o in_o prayer_n and_o spiritual_a exercise_n though_o every_o day_n we_o be_v to_o keep_v it_o holy_a yet_o we_o can_v be_v vacant_a whole_o and_o total_o every_o day_n now_o therefore_o i_o say_v that_o there_o be_v a_o set_a day_n that_o the_o lord_n have_v call_v for_o to_o be_v devote_v unto_o he_o the_o very_a schoolman_n themselves_o do_v acknowledge_v this_o and_o the_o very_a heathen_a have_v find_v it_o out_o they_o have_v set_v a_o day_n apart_o for_o the_o service_n of_o their_o god_n which_o they_o call_v their_o holy_a day_n wherein_o they_o lie_v aside_o all_o other_o business_n and_o set_v themselves_o a_o part_n to_o honour_n and_o worship_v their_o image_n and_o idol_n according_a to_o their_o manner_n now_o i_o will_v make_v this_o good_a by_o many_o argument_n that_o god_n will_v have_v a_o set_a day_n beside_o the_o every_o day_n sabbath_n he_o will_v have_v a_o set_v particular_a sabbath_n for_o his_o worship_n and_o service_n the_o first_o reason_n be_v because_o he_o will_v have_v a_o little_a 1._o emblem_n and_o picture_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n among_o his_o saint_n and_o child_n in_o this_o life_n in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n there_o be_v no_o buy_v and_o sell_v no_o eat_a and_o drink_v no_o worldly_a business_n there_o be_v nothing_o but_o praise_v and_o glorify_v of_o god_n and_o speak_v of_o god_n and_o sing_v of_o halelujah_o unto_o his_o holy_a name_n there_o be_v nothing_o but_o enjoy_v communion_n with_o the_o lord_n and_o feed_v upon_o he_o continual_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o this_o in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n now_o god_n will_v have_v a_o little_a picture_n of_o this_o among_o his_o saint_n here_o upon_o earth_n you_o know_v there_o remain_v a_o rest_n for_o the_o people_n of_o god_n heb._n 4._o 9_o it_o be_v a_o express_a place_n the_o word_n in_o the_o original_a be_v there_o remain_v a_o sabbath_n for_o the_o people_n of_o god_n as_o who_o shall_v say_v there_o be_v a_o glorious_a sabbath_n that_o all_o the_o elect_a of_o god_n shall_v have_v and_o they_o be_v preserve_v for_o it_o and_o that_o be_v reserve_v for_o they_o and_o they_o shall_v enter_v into_o it_o when_o this_o body_n of_o death_n be_v lay_v down_o and_o they_o shall_v enjoy_v god_n face_n to_o face_n to_o all_o eternity_n they_o shall_v behold_v he_o as_o he_o be_v and_o have_v communion_n with_o he_o now_o the_o lord_n will_v have_v a_o little_a picture_n of_o this_o here_o in_o this_o life_n we_o can_v have_v it_o altogether_o in_o this_o life_n for_o we_o have_v mortal_a body_n that_o must_v be_v feed_v and_o clothe_v and_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o the_o creature_n for_o man_n sin_n be_v not_o yet_o purge_v away_o but_o there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o rubbish_n still_o leave_v therefore_o this_o can_v be_v complete_a here_o but_o yet_o god_n will_v have_v a_o little_a picture_n ot_fw-mi this_o even_o in_o this_o life_n and_o that_o be_v the_o sabbath_n day_n wherein_o they_o be_v to_o lay_v aside_o all_o the_o work_n of_o their_o ordinary_a calling_n and_o rest_n from_o all_o servile_a labour_n this_o be_v god_n day_n and_o we_o must_v now_o call_v upon_o he_o and_o hear_v what_o he_o say_v and_o whole_o employ_v and_o occupy_v ourselves_o about_o he_o as_o near_o as_o we_o possible_o can_v but_o now_o this_o
we_o can_v do_v every_o day_n for_o we_o have_v child_n to_o look_v after_o and_o family_n to_o provide_v for_o and_o there_o be_v a_o hundred_o occasion_n to_o call_v a_o man_n away_o it_o may_v be_v a_o man_n think_v to_o go_v into_o his_o closet_n and_o seek_v god_n in_o private_a and_o one_o occasion_n or_o other_o call_v he_o aside_o that_o he_o can_v go_v on_o but_o the_o lord_n will_v have_v a_o little_a emblem_n and_o expression_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n upon_o the_o sabbath_n day_n therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v it_o remain_v for_o we_o scil_n in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v the_o second_o reason_n why_o the_o lord_n will_v have_v a_o 2._o set_a day_n for_o his_o worship_n and_o service_n beside_o the_o every_o day_n sabbath_n be_v because_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n do_v so_o require_v it_o do_v require_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o solemn_a day_n for_o god_n service_n as_o king_n though_o their_o subject_n be_v to_o obey_v they_o every_o day_n and_o keep_v their_o law_n every_o day_n and_o if_o a_o subject_n transgress_v the_o law_n at_o any_o time_n he_o be_v in_o danger_n of_o the_o displeasure_n of_o the_o king_n but_o he_o will_v have_v one_o day_n of_o solemnity_n to_o his_o majesty_n so_o god_n almighty_a though_o every_o day_n we_o be_v to_o tremble_v before_o he_o and_o stand_v in_o awe_n of_o his_o word_n and_o take_v heed_n we_o do_v not_o err_v from_o his_o commandment_n yet_o he_o will_v have_v one_o solemn_a day_n for_o the_o honour_n of_o his_o name_n he_o will_v have_v a_o solemn_a day_n wherein_o his_o people_n shall_v have_v nothing_o else_o to_o do_v but_o to_o set_v themselves_o apart_o for_o his_o worship_n therefore_o this_o set_a day_n be_v call_v the_o honourable_a of_o the_o lord_n isa_n 58_o 13._o that_o be_v we_o must_v count_v the_o sabbath_n day_n a_o honourable_a day_n a_o day_n of_o honour_n wherein_o god_n servant_n shall_v from_o morning_n to_o evening_n fall_v down_o before_o he_o and_o confess_v that_o great_a be_v the_o lord_n god_n we_o shall_v whole_o dedicate_v it_o unto_o he_o seek_v of_o he_o in_o public_a and_o in_o private_a that_o we_o may_v store_v up_o holy_a affection_n for_o all_o the_o week_n follow_v three_o because_o god_n sometime_o call_v for_o a_o 3._o extraordinary_a day_n and_o a_o extraordinary_a day_n have_v ever_o relation_n to_o a_o ordinary_a if_o i_o say_v this_o be_v my_o extraordinary_a food_n and_o diet_n i_o imply_v that_o i_o have_v ordinary_a diet_n so_o if_o the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o that_o god_n call_v for_o extraordinary_a day_n it_o be_v a_o evident_a argument_n that_o there_o be_v ordinary_a day_n which_o he_o call_v for_o now_o that_o god_n call_v for_o extraordinary_a day_n it_o be_v plain_a 1._o first_o he_o call_v for_o extraordinary_a day_n of_o rejoice_v when_o god_n compass_v we_o about_o with_o song_n of_o deliverance_n and_o work_v wonderful_a mercy_n for_o we_o we_o ought_v to_o set_v a_o part_n a_o day_n for_o rejoice_v and_o delight_v in_o his_o goodness_n and_o favour_n towards_o we_o and_o this_o day_n be_v to_o be_v a_o holy_a day_n as_o nehemiah_n 8._o 9_o this_o day_n be_v holy_a unto_o the_o lord_n your_o god_n mourn_v not_o nor_o weep_v so_o that_o when_o we_o be_v to_o rejoice_v towards_o god_n for_o any_o spiritual_a favour_n towards_o we_o we_o ought_v to_o keep_v this_o day_n a_o holy_a day_n we_o ought_v to_o employ_v the_o hour_n of_o the_o day_n in_o labour_v to_o affect_v our_o heart_n with_o his_o kindness_n and_o labour_v to_o make_v his_o goodness_n to_o have_v impression_n upon_o we_o that_o we_o may_v with_o cheerfulness_n run_v over_o all_o our_o day_n afterward_o that_o we_o may_v adhere_v unto_o he_o the_o better_a all_o our_o life_n time_n 2._o second_o as_o he_o call_v for_o extraordinary_a day_n of_o rejoice_v so_o he_o call_v for_o extraordinary_a day_n of_o fast_v and_o humiliation_n and_o that_o in_o four_o case_n 1._o first_o when_o we_o fear_v some_o heavy_a judgement_n to_o come_v upon_o we_o or_o else_o when_o some_o judgement_n be_v already_o upon_o we_o may_v be_v some_o heavy_a judgement_n be_v upon_o we_o or_o else_o we_o fear_v it_o to_o come_v upon_o we_o and_o now_o we_o be_v to_o set_v a_o extraordinary_a day_n apart_o to_o seek_v the_o lord_n as_o 2_o chron._n 20._o jehosaphat_n proclaim_v a_o fast_a when_o the_o land_n be_v in_o danger_n suppose_v the_o lord_n shall_v take_v away_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o foot_n of_o those_o that_o bring_v glad_a tiding_n shall_v be_v turn_v from_o we_o than_o shall_v we_o fast_o in_o those_o day_n we_o shall_v grieve_v before_o god_n and_o bewail_v the_o loss_n of_o his_o mercy_n and_o favour_n that_o we_o may_v have_v his_o goodness_n to_o quicken_v we_o and_o keep_v we_o and_o uphold_v we_o in_o the_o want_n of_o they_o 2._o second_o in_o case_n that_o we_o want_v some_o mercy_n that_o we_o can_v well_o be_v without_o in_o such_o a_o case_n as_o this_o if_o ordinary_a seek_n will_v not_o do_v the_o deed_n we_o ought_v to_o set_v apart_o a_o extraordinary_a time_n to_o prevail_v with_o god_n as_o ezra_n he_o be_v in_o danger_n of_o the_o enemy_n and_o if_o he_o shall_v go_v to_o jerusalem_n the_o enemy_n will_v set_v upon_o he_o now_o think_v he_o if_o i_o shall_v go_v to_o the_o king_n though_o he_o be_v very_o great_a with_o the_o king_n of_o persia_n at_o that_o time_n yet_o think_v he_o if_o i_o shall_v go_v to_o the_o king_n for_o a_o band_n of_o soldier_n he_o will_v think_v our_o god_n be_v a_o weak_a god_n i_o have_v tell_v he_o what_o a_o strong_a god_n we_o have_v and_o that_o he_o be_v ready_a to_o help_v all_o those_o that_o trust_v in_o he_o now_o if_o i_o shall_v go_v to_o he_o for_o a_o band_n of_o soldier_n he_o may_v think_v that_o our_o god_n be_v not_o able_a to_o deliver_v we_o and_o it_o will_v be_v a_o great_a dishonour_n to_o god_n therefore_o he_o set_v a_o day_n a_o part_n for_o a_o fast_a and_o labour_v to_o get_v aid_n and_o help_v from_o heaven_n ezra_n 8._o 21._o so_o when_o a_o child_n of_o god_n be_v exceed_o afflict_v with_o any_o cross_n or_o temptation_n and_o he_o shall_v wonderful_o dishonour_v god_n and_o cast_v a_o snare_n upon_o they_o that_o fear_v his_o name_n in_o this_o case_n he_o be_v bind_v to_o seek_v god_n extraordinary_o and_o if_o the_o ordinary_a mean_n that_o god_n have_v appoint_v will_v not_o prevail_v he_o be_v to_o set_v a_o part_n a_o fast_a to_o seek_v he_o extraordinary_o 3._o three_o if_o we_o be_v assault_v from_o hell_n and_o satan_n and_o our_o own_o heart_n with_o strong_a temptation_n than_o we_o be_v to_o seek_v god_n extraordinary_o as_o it_o be_v with_o paul_n when_o the_o messenger_n of_o satan_n be_v send_v to_o buffet_v he_o when_o he_o lie_v under_o some_o heavy_a temptation_n either_o unto_o pride_n or_o lust_n or_o uncleanness_n some_o prick_n in_o the_o flesh_n that_o the_o lord_n send_v upon_o he_o and_o let_v he_o be_v encounter_v withal_o then_o paul_n seek_v god_n in_o a_o solemn_a manner_n more_o than_o ever_o he_o do_v at_o other_o time_n 2_o cor._n 12._o 8._o for_o this_o i_o beseech_v god_n thrice_o 4._o four_o in_o case_n a_o man_n be_v to_o do_v some_o notable_a service_n he_o be_v to_o enter_v into_o some_o new_a call_v or_o if_o the_o lord_n do_v put_v he_o upon_o some_o new_a service_n that_o do_v require_v some_o more_o than_o ordinary_a help_n now_o a_o man_n be_v to_o seek_v god_n by_o fast_v and_o prayer_n as_o you_o may_v see_v it_o be_v with_o barnabas_n and_o paul_n when_o they_o enter_v into_o the_o ministry_n act_v 13._o 3._o now_o the_o reason_n why_o i_o name_v these_o thing_n be_v to_o show_v you_o that_o sometime_o god_n will_v have_v a_o extraordinary_a set_a day_n for_o his_o immediate_a worship_n and_o service_n when_o we_o be_v to_o lay_v aside_o all_o other_o business_n and_o set_v ourselves_o apart_o to_o call_v upon_o his_o name_n and_o seek_v he_o the_o thing_n i_o gather_v from_o hence_o be_v this_o if_o there_o be_v a_o extraordinary_a set_a day_n than_o there_o must_v be_v a_o ordinary_a set_a day_n for_o god_n immediate_a service_n another_o argument_n be_v take_v from_o the_o equity_n of_o 4._o it_o and_o that_o stand_v two_o way_n 1._o first_o it_o be_v very_o equal_a when_o as_o we_o have_v six_o day_n to_o provide_v for_o ourselves_o and_o for_o the_o maintenance_n of_o our_o body_n god_n give_v we_o divers_a day_n for_o that_o now_o equity_n do_v require_v that_o we_o shall_v give_v one_o day_n to_o he_o we_o have_v several_a day_n it_o be_v

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

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

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

another_o argument_n to_o prove_v that_o it_o 5._o be_v by_o divine_a institution_n and_o not_o by_o humane_a ordinance_n be_v this_o because_o the_o wisdom_n of_o jesus_n christ_n will_v never_o

may_v well_o conclude_v it_o be_v to_o be_v find_v in_o scripture_n by_o ordination_n of_o god_n for_o mark_v what_o the_o apostle_n say_v as_o moses_n be_v faithful_a in_o all_o his_o house_n so_o

they_o delight_n in_o this_o and_o sanctify_v it_o and_o count_v it_o holy_a to_o the_o lord_n and_o the_o more_o a_o man_n fear_v god_n the_o more_o careful_a he_o be_v of_o the_o keep_n of_o this_o

this_o day_n no_o man_n do_v sanctify_v this_o day_n conscionable_o but_o he_o shall_v find_v a_o blessing_n therefore_o it_o be_v sure_o from_o the_o lord_n the_o first_o use_n be_v this_o be_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n 1._o the_o sabbath_n by_o divine_a institution_n then_o here_o we_o see_v that_o we_o be_v to_o keep_v a_o whole_a day_n the_o devil_n if_o he_o can_v make_v man_n

the_o word_n and_o divine_a service_n morning_n and_o evening_n be_v not_o this_o to_o keep_v the_o sabbath_n but_o if_o the_o lord_n have_v institute_v this_o day_n then_o certain_o he_o have_v institute_v a_o whole_a day_n it_o be_v madness_n and_o want_v of_o reason_n for_o a_o man_n to_o think_v the_o contrary_n suppose_v i_o hire_v a_o man_n to_o labour_n with_o i_o for_o a_o day_n do_v i_o not_o make_v account_n he_o shall_v work_v one_o whole_a day_n suppose_v i_o hire_v a_o servant_n for_o a_o year_n do_v i_o not_o mean_v a_o whole_a year_n though_o i_o put_v not_o in_o the_o

day_n and_o they_o meet_v together_o on_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n it_o be_v a_o day_n therefore_o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o scripture_n be_v that_o it_o shall_v be_v a_o whole_a day_n and_o it_o be_v so_o in_o reason_n and_o therefore_o we_o be_v to_o keep_v a_o whole_a day_n therefore_o we_o shall_v not_o curtail_v the_o lord_n day_n as_o the_o servant_n of_o hanun_n do_v the_o

and_o we_o give_v he_o but_o a_o part_n we_o shall_v bring_v vengeance_n upon_o our_o own_o head_n there_o be_v divers_a argument_n for_o it_o first_o the_o 1._o week_n consist_v of_o seven_o day_n and_o he_o have_v give_v six_o to_o we_o and_o reserve_v one_o day_n to_o himself_o now_o we_o will_v grant_v that_o we_o have_v not_o part_v of_o six_o day_n but_o six_o whole_a day_n if_o you_o

saint_n of_o god_n have_v always_o keep_v a_o whole_a day_n so_o saint_n austin_n say_v it_o be_v not_o enough_o that_o we_o keep_v three_o or_o four_o hour_n of_o the_o day_n but_o that_o we_o rest_v
