A93852	The royal law contended for, or, Some brief grounds serving to prove that the Ten Commandments are yet in full force, and shall so remain till heaven and earth pass away. Also the seventh day Sabbath, proved from the beginning, from the law, from the prophets, from Christ, from his apostles, to be a duty yet incumbent upon saints and sinners. / By a lover of peace with truth Edward Stennet.

and_o as_o god_n do_v rest_v the_o seven_o day_n from_o all_o his_o work_n so_o they_o that_o enter_v into_o rest_n do_v cease_v from_o their_o own_o work_n as_o god_n do_v from_o he_o and_o this_o

have_v the_o sabbath_n a_o type_n from_o this_o scripture_n though_o it_o be_v not_o where_o so_o call_v it_o must_v be_v a_o type_n of_o eternal_a rest_n which_o saint_n do_v enter_v into_o when_o
