that_o in_o it_o he_o have_v rest_v from_o all_o his_o work_n why_o then_o say_v some_o man_n it_o matter_n not_o which_o day_n we_o give_v god_n for_o a_o sabbath_n so_o be_v we_o give_v he_o one_o &_o c_o here_o be_v a_o reason_n you_o see_v move_v god_n to_o set_v apart_o saturday_n rather_o than_o sunday_n or_o any_o other_o day_n to_o wit_n because_o he_o have_v rest_v on_o that_o day_n and_o have_v god_n a_o reason_n move_v he_o to_o make_v a_o choice_n of_o day_n then_o &_o be_v there_o no_o reason_n at_o all_o now_o but_o one_o day_n may_v be_v as_o meet_v as_o a_o other_o have_v

magistrate_n and_o then_o it_o conclude_v with_o a_o exhortation_n to_o use_v all_o possible_a and_o lawful_a mean_n for_o a_o public_a &_o general_a reformation_n a_o dispensation_n touch_v the_o present_a practice_n sect_n i._o when_o i_o have_v find_v out_o by_o diligent_a study_n christian_n reader_n that_o this_o most_o ancient_a ordinance_n of_o god_n sabbath_n be_v still_o in_o force_n in_o the_o next_o place_n i_o give_v myself_o serious_o to_o think_v of_o the_o practice_n of_o it_o whither_o to_o fale_v to_o present_a practice_n or_o to_o wait_v some_o more_o fit_a season_n when_o i_o think_v of_o a_o present_a practice_n than_o these_o inconvenience_n present_v themselves_o 1._o if_o we_o fale_v upon_o the_o present_a practice_n than_o the_o magistrate_n will_v be_v offend_v because_o we_o make_v a_o schism_n and_o rend_v in_o the_o church_n 2._o our_o christian_a brethren_n will_v be_v offend_v because_o we_o divid_a &_o separate_v from_o their_o fellowship_n &_o both_o of_o these_o will_v take_v it_o the_o worse_a when_o they_o think_v of_o our_o rashness_n &_o inconsideracy_n that_o we_o will_v forsake_v the_o practice_n &_o fellowship_n of_o the_o church_n before_o we_o have_v give_v they_o time_n sufficient_a to_o consider_v of_o the_o matter_n as_o we_o ourselves_o have_v have_v whereby_o we_o shall_v have_v wait_v for_o their_o approbation_n in_o judgement_n &_o reformation_n together_o with_o we_o in_o practice_n and_o hereupon_o may_v arise_v great_a divisiones_fw-la of_o heart_n &_o much_o hartburn_n betwixt_o brethren_n who_o shall_v live_v in_o amity_n &_o godly_a love_n 3._o as_o in_o the_o two_o former_a we_o shall_v do_v that_o which_o will_v be_v evil_a to_o our_o brethren_n so_o also_o shall_v we_o do_v that_o which_o will_v prove_v evil_a unto_o ourselves_o &_o that_o in_o a_o double_a respect_n 1._o in_o regard_n of_o our_o body_n 2._o in_o respect_n of_o our_o soul_n for_o the_o former_a we_o live_v not_o as_o they_o do_v in_o some_o part_n of_o the_o world_n who_o be_v at_o liberty_n to_o practice_v what_o they_o will_v in_o matter_n of_o conscience_n but_o we_o live_v under_o a_o establish_a government_n where_o we_o can_v transgress_v the_o law_n thereof_o without_o peril_n to_o our_o person_n &_o good_n for_o the_o latter_a if_o we_o enter_v upon_o a_o present_a practice_n of_o the_o sabbath_n than_o we_o run_v into_o this_o spiritual_a inconvenience_n that_o we_o shall_v pine_v our_o soul_n for_o want_v of_o that_o spiritual_a food_n which_o we_o be_v wont_a to_o enjoy_v upon_o the_o lord_n day_n &_o which_o be_v needful_a upon_o the_o sabbath_n day_n for_o the_o law_n of_o our_o kingdom_n will_v not_o permit_v private_a conventicle_n or_o that_o a_o minister_n shall_v preach_v in_o private_a &_o therefore_o we_o can_v have_v the_o benefit_n of_o a_o able_a ministry_n to_o help_v we_o in_o the_o sinctification_n of_o the_o sabbath_n &_o to_o feed_v our_o soul_n with_o the_o bread_n of_o life_n these_o be_v the_o inconvenience_n which_o attend_v upon_o the_o present_a practice_n but_o when_o i_o think_v of_o a_o delay_n and_o to_o wait_v some_o more_o fit_a season_n for_o the_o practice_n than_o this_o evil_n present_v itself_o that_o by_o the_o neglect_n of_o a_o present_a practice_n we_o fale_v into_o sin_n and_o transgression_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n by_o profanation_n of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n &_o we_o shall_v be_v guilty_a thereof_o until_o that_o sit_v season_n of_o reformation_n come_v so_o whither_o soever_o i_o turn_v i_o i_o see_v myself_o in_o a_o strait_n for_o the_o former_a inconvenience_n will_v be_v avoid_v but_o this_o latter_a of_o necessity_n must_v be_v shune_v while_o i_o be_v at_o a_o stand_n it_o please_v god_n to_o cause_v i_o think_v of_o a_o dispensation_n the_o which_o after_o i_o have_v serious_o consider_v of_o i_o resolve_v that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n will_v bear_v a_o dispensation_n in_o this_o case_n &_o so_o it_o shall_v come_v to_o pass_v that_o we_o shall_v shun_v the_o inconvenience_n on_o the_o one_o side_n &_o the_o sin_n on_o the_o other_o &_o so_o we_o may_v walk_v on_o comfortable_o without_o offence_n either_o to_o god_n or_o to_o man_n or_o injury_n to_o ourselves_o let_v we_o now_o therefore_o address_v ourselves_o unto_o this_o dispensation_n touch_v which_o first_o we_o will_v handle_v this_o question_n in_o general_a whither_o a_o man_n be_v bind_v in_o conscience_n to_o conform_v his_o practice_n at_o all_o time_n without_o dispensation_n or_o exception_n to_o the_o do_v of_o that_o which_o the_o word_n of_o god_n say_v must_v be_v do_v &_o he_o know_v must_v be_v do_v or_o no_o 2._o we_o will_v handle_v this_o question_n in_o particular_a whither_o the_o sabbath_n day_n may_v not_o be_v neglect_v in_o a_o case_n of_o necessity_n for_o a_o season_n until_o the_o time_n of_o reformation_n by_o those_o who_o be_v very_o persuade_v that_o it_o be_v still_o in_o force_n if_o in_o case_n they_o give_v god_n for_o it_o a_o other_o day_n in_o the_o mean_a space_n as_o the_o lord_n day_n by_o way_n of_o change_n and_o first_o of_o the_o former_a of_o these_o two_o questiones_fw-la sect_n ii_o in_o this_o section_n i_o shall_v prove_v unto_o you_o &_o that_o by_o sundry_a justifiable_a example_n that_o a_o man_n be_v not_o bind_v at_o all_o time_n without_o dispensation_n &_o exception_n to_o the_o do_v of_o that_o thing_n which_o the_o word_n of_o god_n say_v must_v be_v do_v and_o he_o know_v must_v be_v do_v for_o this_o purpose_n note_n that_o god_n have_v give_v we_o a_o moral_a law_n touch_v wedlock_n to_o wit_n the_o seven_o commandment_n thou_o shall_v not_o commit_v adultery_n now_o our_o saviour_n say_v that_o whosoever_o marry_v a_o divorce_v woman_n commit_v adultery_n &_o the_o woman_n commit_v adultery_n also_o in_o case_n she_o be_v divorce_v for_o any_o thing_n beside_o her_o adultery_n mat._n 5.32_o nevertheless_o for_o the_o hardness_n of_o the_o jew_n heart_n

as_o cry_v out_o say_v what_o a_o dispensation_n from_o a_o moral_a law_n if_o the_o sabbath_n be_v a_o moral_a then_o there_o can_v be_v no_o dispensation_n but_o lo_o here_o they_o see_v the_o

from_o the_o begin_n be_v not_o so_o &_o which_o our_o saviour_n account_v to_o be_v adultery_n &_o so_o against_o the_o seven_o commandment_n but_o we_o shall_v touch_v this_o point_n further_o by_o &_o by_o in_o answer_v to_o a_o objection_n a_o second_o instance_n shall_v be_v that_o of_o david_n it_o be_v a_o law_n of_o god_n that_o whoso_o shed_v man_n blood_n by_o man_n shall_v his_o blood_n

say_v with_o i_o it_o be_v high_a time_n indeed_o to_o seek_v for_o a_o reformation_n for_o this_o purpose_n you_o must_v know_v that_o there_o be_v as_o well_o a_o puritan_n idolatry_n as_o a_o

child_n must_v not_o be_v clock_v neither_o must_v i_o be_v partial_a no_o neither_o must_v i_o deal_v over_o but_o tell_v every_o man_n or_o rank_n of_o man_n of_o their_o sin_n without_o baulk_a i_o cale_fw-la it_o puritan_n idolatry_n because_o these_o be_v the_o great_a patroness_n thereof_o that_o i_o may_v discover_v it_o unto_o you_o first_o we_o will_v begin_v with_o the_o word_n idolatry_n this_o word_n be_v a_o greek_a word_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d &_o it_o be_v compound_v of_o two_o word_n the_o one_o whereof_o signify_v a_o image_n and_o likeness_n of_o a_o thing_n or_o a_o

image_n and_o likeness_n of_o a_o thing_n or_o of_o a_o imagination_n and_o fiction_n of_o the_o brain_n thus_o you_o have_v the_o signification_n of_o the_o word_n idolatry_n now_o when_o divine_a and_o religiouse_a honour_n be_v give_v to_o a_o similitude_n or_o fiction_n of_o the_o mind_n than_o it_o be_v a_o dangerous_a matter_n and_o when_o the_o conscience_n stand_v in_o awe_n of_o a_o similitude_n or_o fiction_n of_o the_o brain_n reverence_v it_o for_o a_o divine_a ordinance_n than_o it_o be_v idolary_a now_o to_o apply_v this_o the_o lord_n day_n be_v this_o idol_n and_o they_o that_o preach_v for_o it_o and_o practice_v it_o be_v the_o idolater_n to_o make_v this_o good_a you_o shall_v see_v how_o fit_o these_o may_v be_v call_v idolater_n and_o their_o practice_n idolatry_n first_o touch_v that_o part_n of_o idolatry_n which_o consist_v in_o imagery_n &_o likeness_n you_o shall_v see_v how_o like_a they_o have_v frame_v the_o lord_n day_n to_o the_o sabbath_n day_n &_o make_v it_o a_o very_a image_n similitude_n &_o likeness_n of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n &_o consequent_o a_o idol_n for_o 1._o they_o have_v give_v the_o very_a name_n the_o proper_a name_n of_o the_o lord_n sabbath_n unto_o it_o for_o do_v they_o not_o usual_o cale_fw-la the_o sunday_n or_o lord_n day_n the_o sabbath_n day_n 2._o they_o sanctify_v and_o keep_v the_o lord_n day_n like_v unto_o the_o sabbath_n day_n with_o a_o rest_n from_o all_o servile_a labour_n &_o with_o preach_v and_o prayer_n and_o the_o like_a 3._o they_o keep_v it_o in_o conscience_n of_o the_o four_o come_v like_o as_o the_o sabbath_n day_n be_v 4._o they_o apply_v all_o those_o text_n of_o scripture_n unto_o the_o lord_n day_n which_o be_v wont_a to_o be_v apply_v to_o the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o which_o indeed_o be_v proper_a to_o the_o sabbath_n day_n as_o neh._n 13.15_o isa_n 58.13_o math._n 12.1.2.3_o etc._n etc._n with_o other_o behold_v then_o if_o they_o have_v not_o make_v the_o lord_n

sabbath_n day_n nay_o the_o image_n &_o similitude_n which_o papist_n make_v of_o god_n of_o christ_n or_o of_o saintes_n be_v not_o so_o like_a unto_o god_n &_o christ_n &_o saint_n as_o this_o lord_n day_n be_v make_v &_o fashion_v like_o the_o lord_n sabbath_n day_n like_a as_o idolatrouse_v jeroboam_n make_v a_o feast_n unto_o his_o calf_n like_v unto_o the_o feast_n that_o be_v in_o

where_o it_o be_v take_v for_o a_o imagination_n or_o fiction_n of_o the_o mind_n or_o brain_n and_o in_o this_o sense_n a_o idol_n be_v nothing_o as_o the_o apostle_n speak_v 1._o cor._n 8.4_o a_o

for_o they_o never_o find_v it_o so_o name_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n 2._o that_o the_o lord_n day_n shall_v be_v keep_v like_o the_o sabbath_n day_n with_o a_o rest_n from_o labour_n all_o day_n long_o be_v a_o imaginary_a conceit_n for_o they_o find_v no_o such_o observation_n of_o it_o by_o christ_n nor_o by_o his_o apostle_n 3._o that_o the_o lord_n day_n shall_v be_v observe_v by_o virtue_n of_o the_o four_o come_v be_v not_o only_o a_o fiction_n but_o a_o absurd_a foolery_n 4._o that_o christ_n institute_v the_o lord_n day_n be_v a_o mere_a forgery_n and_o fancy_n of_o man_n brain_n as_o have_v be_v former_o show_v and_o thus_o you_o see_v that_o the_o lord_n day_n be_v a_o mere_a idol_n or_o a_o very_a nothing_o that_o be_v nothing_o but_o a_o fancy_n &_o fiction_n of_o man_n brain_n of_o this_o day_n therefore_o we_o may_v say_v as_o the_o lord_n say_v of_o jeroboames_n month_n which_o he_o have_v consecrate_v unto_o his_o idol_n that_o it_o be_v the_o month_n which_o he_o have_v forge_v of_o his_o own_o heart_n 1_o king_n 12_o 33._o so_o this_o lord_n day_n be_v the_o sabbath_n day_n which_o man_n have_v forge_v of_o their_o own_o heart_n and_o thus_o we_o have_v clear_v and_o make_v apparent_a the_o two_o first_o thing_n in_o this_o idolatry_n to_o wit_n that_o the_o lord_n day_n be_v a_o image_n and_o likeness_n and_o that_o the_o lord_n day_n be_v a_o imagination_n and_o fiction_n or_o a_o idol_n and_o nothing_o i_o come_v now_o to_o the_o three_o thing_n which_o make_v complete_a idolatry_n and_o that_o be_v honour_n and_o reverence_n for_o that_o be_v proper_o idolatry_n when_o religiouse_a honour_n and_o reverence_n be_v attribute_v unto_o image_n and_o similitude_n or_o unto_o imagination_n and_o fiction_n of_o the_o brain_n or_o unto_o idol_n and_o nothing_o as_o when_o man_n reverence_v these_o as_o divine_a thing_n and_o as_o ordinance_n of_o god_n now_o i_o shall_v easy_o demonstrate_v unto_o you_o that_o man_n give_v honour_n &_o reverence_n unto_o this_o lord_n day_n yea_o no_o civil_a honour_n but_o divine_a &_o religiouse_a honour_n for_o 1._o the_o patroness_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n they_o do_v esteem_v one_o

it_o above_o all_o other_o day_n yea_o by_o hold_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o institution_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n to_o be_v great_a than_o the_o cause_n of_o the_o institution_n of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n they_o must_v hold_v that_o the_o lord_n day_n be_v a_o high_a &_o more_o honourable_a day_n than_o be_v the_o sabbath_n day_n for_o they_o say_v that_o the_o work_n of_o the_o redemption_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o institution_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n now_o the_o work_n of_o redemption_n they_o hold_v to_o be_v a_o great_a work_n than_o be_v the_o work_n of_o the_o creation_n which_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o institution_n of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o thus_o you_o see_v they_o must_v have_v the_o lord_n day_n in_o more_o honour_n than_o the_o sabbath_n day_n be_v
