so_o much_o of_o the_o second_o quaestion_n 66_o the_o three_o quaestion_n and_o the_o last_o concern_v this_o controversy_n of_o the_o christian_a sabbaoth_n be_v this_o whether_o the_o church_n of_o god_n may_v have_v choose_v at_o the_o first_o another_o day_n or_o have_v yet_o authority_n or_o christian_a liberty_n to_o abrogate_v or_o alter_v the_o lord_n day_n into_o any_o other_o certain_a or_o uncertain_a day_n or_o whether_o it_o be_v not_o of_o necessity_n to_o be_v observe_v to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n 67_o this_o quaestion_a because_o it_o depend_v on_o the_o former_a therefore_o the_o affirmation_n and_o proof_n of_o the_o former_a proove_v also_o the_o negation_n of_o the_o former_a part_n hereof_o and_o the_o affirmation_n of_o the_o late_a the_o which_o i_o therefore_o will_v the_o more_o brief_o handle_v as_o a_o point_n sufficient_o confirm_v 68_o the_o first_o reason_n the_o church_n have_v no_o christian_a liberty_n to_o alter_v any_o day_n the_o which_o have_v absolute_a commandment_n in_o the_o word_n the_o christian_a sabbaoth_n or_o lord_n day_n have_v absolute_a commandment_n in_o the_o word_n as_o already_o have_v be_v prove_v therefore_o the_o church_n have_v no_o christian_a liberty_n to_o alter_v the_o lord_n day_n into_o any_o other_o 69_o the_o second_o reason_n the_o church_n can_v never_o alter_v any_o part_n of_o the_o moral_a law_n or_o of_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n nor_o can_v alter_v the_o moral_a ordinance_n and_o constitution_n of_o the_o inspire_a apostle_n the_o observation_n or_o keep_v holy_a of_o one_o day_n of_o every_o seven_o be_v of_o the_o moral_a law_n and_o law_n of_o nature_n and_o beside_o the_o keep_v holy_a of_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v a_o constitution_n and_o commandment_n of_o the_o inspire_a apostle_n therefore_o the_o church_n can_v not_o nor_o can_v alter_v the_o keep_n holy_a of_o one_o day_n of_o seven_o unto_o god_n nor_o the_o keep_n holy_a of_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n to_o christ_n 70_o the_o three_o reason_n whatsoever_o christ_n ascribe_v as_o his_o own_o and_o proper_a to_o himself_o no_o church_n or_o christian_n ought_v or_o may_v ascribe_v unto_o themselves_o but_o christ_n ascribe_v as_o proper_a to_o himself_o that_o he_o be_v the_o lord_n of_o the_o sabbaoth_n therefore_o no_o church_n or_o person_n may_v ascribe_v the_o sabbaoth_n of_o christ_n to_o himself_o and_o so_o by_o consequence_n may_v not_o profane_v nor_o alter_v the_o lord_n day_n into_o any_o other_o 71_o the_o four_o reason_n by_o whatsoever_o only_a power_n the_o jewish_a sabbaoth_n be_v abrogate_a &_o the_o christian_a sabbaoth_n institute_v by_o the_o same_o power_n and_o none_o other_o can_v it_o be_v abrogate_a again_o but_o by_o the_o only_a power_n of_o christ_n his_o consummatum_fw-la est_fw-la or_o sacrifice_n be_v the_o jewish_a sabbaoth_n abrogate_a and_o by_o virtue_n of_o his_o resurrection_n the_o lord_n day_n original_o institute_v and_o by_o apostolical_a power_n and_o authority_n the_o one_o relinquish_v and_o the_o other_o practise_v therefore_o by_o the_o only_a power_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n and_o by_o none_o other_o can_v the_o lord_n day_n be_v abolish_v again_o 72_o the_o five_o reason_n if_o there_o can_v come_v so_o long_o as_o the_o world_n last_v so_o great_a a_o cause_n of_o change_v the_o lord_n day_n as_o the_o apostle_n have_v of_o ordain_v it_o then_o the_o church_n can_v abolish_v the_o lord_n day_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n but_o so_o great_a cause_n of_o abolish_n the_o lord_n day_n the_o church_n can_v never_o have_v as_o the_o apostle_n have_v of_o ordain_v namely_o the_o resurrection_n and_o rest_n of_o christ_n therefore_o the_o church_n can_v abolish_v the_o lord_n day_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n 73_o the_o six_o and_o last_o reason_n if_o the_o church_n have_v no_o far_a authority_n then_o by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n either_o in_o general_a or_o special_a to_o appoint_v or_o alter_v any_o thing_n establish_v than_o the_o church_n can_v never_o alter_v the_o lord_n day_n nor_o appoint_v any_o other_o in_o the_o stead_n thereof_o but_o the_o former_a be_v true_a and_o therefore_o also_o the_o late_a for_o there_o be_v no_o shadow_n of_o authority_n or_o ground_n either_o general_a or_o special_a in_o the_o word_n touch_v the_o alteration_n of_o
