apostle_n but_o all_o the_o minister_n of_o christ_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n have_v power_n to_o do_v this_o and_o that_o the_o people_n be_v bind_v to_o do_v their_o part_n when_o the_o minister_n have_v do_v he_o how_o they_o will_v excuse_v themselves_o from_o a_o open_a breach_n of_o our_o saviour_n commandment_n who_o do_v not_o do_v this_o in_o remembrance_n of_o he_o i_o can_v imagine_v there_o be_v nothing_o that_o he_o enjoin_v with_o more_o solemnity_n and_o particular_a care_n than_o this_o action_n and_o therefore_o the_o same_o necessity_n lie_v upon_o we_o for_o the_o performance_n of_o it_o that_o there_o do_v for_o obedience_n to_o other_o of_o his_o command_n if_o there_o be_v any_o difference_n it_o be_v such_o as_o shall_v rather_o make_v we_o exceed_o careful_a about_o this_o duty_n than_o otherways_o for_o it_o be_v a_o command_n whereby_o our_o love_n and_o affection_n to_o christ_n jesus_n our_o ever_o bless_a redeemer_n be_v more_o than_o ordinary_o try_v and_o prove_v there_o be_v no_o other_o reason_n for_o perform_v it_o but_o mere_o our_o respect_n to_o his_o will_n and_o pleasure_n to_o most_o other_o duty_n in_o our_o religion_n there_o be_v something_o in_o nature_n to_o prompt_v we_o or_o to_o show_v we_o the_o reason_n of_o they_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v just_a and_o merciful_a and_o sober_a and_o grateful_a etc._n etc._n we_o can_v derive_v from_o a_o reason_n within_o ourselves_o but_o this_o duty_n to_o which_o i_o be_o exciting_a you_o be_v one_o of_o the_o thing_n for_o which_o there_o be_v no_o other_o ground_n but_o his_o divine_a commandment_n and_o appointment_n we_o have_v no_o other_o reason_n why_o we_o shall_v do_v this_o but_o because_o he_o will_v have_v we_o and_o therefore_o the_o do_v of_o it_o be_v a_o piece_n of_o pure_a obedience_n arise_v whole_o out_o of_o our_o respect_n and_o affection_n to_o he_o and_o his_o injunction_n it_o be_v indeed_o design_v for_o the_o keep_v he_o in_o memory_n his_o appointment_n of_o it_o for_o that_o purpose_n have_v add_v a_o good_a reason_n to_o it_o which_o do_v mighty_o enforce_v our_o duty_n if_o we_o have_v any_o love_n to_o the_o memory_n of_o so_o dear_a a_o saviour_n and_o desire_v to_o perpetuate_v the_o story_n of_o so_o rare_a a_o love_n and_o make_v it_o know_v to_o all_o succeed_a generation_n by_o this_o it_o be_v apparent_a that_o the_o thing_n which_o make_v most_o man_n negligent_a of_o this_o duty_n be_v that_o which_o if_o they_o be_v understand_v believer_n shall_v make_v they_o most_o zealous_o affect_v it_o natural_a conscience_n not_o reprove_v they_o for_o not_o do_v this_o as_o it_o do_v for_o injustice_n cheat_v lie_a and_o such_o like_a sin_n they_o live_v secure_o in_o their_o neglect_n of_o it_o and_o this_o be_v the_o very_a reason_n why_o the_o people_n know_v by_o the_o name_n of_o quaker_n have_v so_o little_a or_o rather_o no_o regard_n to_o it_o but_o if_o christian_a faith_n be_v plant_v and_o deep_o root_v in_o man_n heart_n they_o will_v upon_o this_o very_a account_n be_v the_o more_o forward_o to_o do_v it_o because_o it_o be_v a_o peculiar_a mark_n of_o a_o christian_a a_o work_n proper_a to_o he_o alone_o who_o be_v move_v to_o this_o not_o by_o nature_n and_o the_o common_a light_n of_o mankind_n but_o pure_o by_o his_o religion_n and_o devotion_n to_o his_o saviour_n for_o there_o be_v no_o piece_n of_o divine_a service_n in_o which_o he_o be_v interest_v so_o much_o as_o this_o it_o be_v more_o proper_o christian_a worship_n than_o any_o other_o all_o the_o world_n think_v their_o religion_n bind_v they_o to_o pray_v to_o god_n to_o praise_v he_o and_o give_v he_o thanks_o but_o to_o acknowledge_v he_o and_o render_v thanks_o to_o he_o by_o do_v this_o belong_v only_o to_o believer_n in_o jesus_n and_o that_o be_v one_o cause_n i_o make_v no_o question_n that_o the_o first_o disciple_n of_o christ_n make_v this_o so_o great_a a_o part_n of_o their_o devotion_n which_o be_v the_o next_o consideration_n primitive_a use_n and_o practice_n upon_o this_o command_n of_o our_o saviour_n do_v very_o much_o explain_v his_o intention_n and_o tell_v
