have_v god_n command_v every_o day_n of_o our_o life_n to_o be_v whole_o devote_v to_o he_o it_o have_v be_v but_o reason_n and_o equity_n and_o since_o that_o out_o of_o regard_n to_o our_o

it_o be_v most_o irrational_a not_o to_o give_v he_o that_o beside_o our_o merciful_a lord_n have_v a_o regard_n in_o this_o commandment_n even_o to_o the_o beast_n themselves_o as_o a_o part_n of_o his_o creation_n which_o sure_o be_v not_o to_o be_v worse_o use_v now_o under_o the_o gospel_n than_o under_o the_o law_n but_o have_v as_o much_o reason_n to_o be_v rest_v on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n now_o as_o they_o have_v then_o 3._o since_o that_o this_o be_v reasonable_a what_o fit_a day_n can_v we_o pitch_v upon_o than_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n on_o which_o our_o bless_a

we_o to_o solemnize_v the_o christian_a sabbath_n with_o they_o indeed_o to_o celebrate_v the_o goodness_n wisdom_n and_o power_n of_o god_n in_o make_v of_o all_o thing_n in_o remember_v the_o

hell_n and_o the_o grave_a and_o wrought_v a_o mighty_a salvation_n for_o mankind_n 4._o that_o as_o god_n do_v then_o so_o christ_n have_v transmit_v his_o power_n to_o they_o the_o apostle_n and_o succeed_a church_n of_o god_n now_o may_v very_o reasonable_o dispose_v of_o we_o in_o matter_n of_o this_o nature_n and_o direct_v all_o its_o member_n into_o some_o uniform_a way_n at_o such_o set_a

the_o christian_a sabbath_n remember_v to_o keep_v holy_a the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o lest_o any_o man_n shall_v say_v that_o this_o command_n be_v give_v by_o moses_n and_o so_o at_o a_o end_n and_o therefore_o that_o christian_n be_v not_o bind_v by_o it_o let_v he_o take_v this_o for_o a_o answer_n and_o consider_v it_o well_o and_o then_o he_o will_v see_v there_o be_v no_o weight_n in_o the_o

it_o be_v answer_v that_o this_o be_v already_o strict_o observe_v among_o the_o jew_n even_o unto_o superstition_n and_o therefore_o there_o need_v rather_o a_o relaxation_n than_o a_o addition_n
