this_o end_n note_n a_o little_a before_o he_o have_v dehort_v the_o magnesian_o that_o they_o will_v not_o suffer_v themselves_o to_o be_v seduce_v or_o deceive_v with_o other_o doctrine_n nor_o with_o fable_n nor_o with_o genealogy_n nor_o with_o jewish_a smoke_n thus_o in_o general_a next_o he_o descend_v to_o particulares_fw-la &_o first_o he_o inveighe_v against_o the_o judicial_a law_n

which_o of_o those_o generalle_n above_o say_v from_o which_o ignatius_n dehort_v the_o magnesian_o these_o word_n have_v relation_n for_o my_o part_n i_o must_v think_v they_o have_v reference_n to_o

cleave_v unto_o christ_n and_o let_v not_o we_o keep_v sabbath_n as_o do_v the_o jew_n etc._n etc._n thus_o he_o count_v their_o sabbatize_v such_o as_o it_o be_v there_o no_o clean_v to_o christ_n but_o a_o vain_a judicial_a vanity_n now_o that_o this_o relation_n must_v stand_v thus_o i_o prove_v 1._o because_o he_o speak_v of_o other_o doctrine_n and_o of_o fable_n now_o its_o fit_a to_o refer_v circumcision_n to_o doctrine_n because_o it_o be_v a_o drctrine_n once_o and_o to_o refer_v those_o thing_n he_o dehorte_v from_o on_o the_o sabbath_n as_o idleness_n and_o daunceinge_n to_o the_o word_n fable_n and_o jewish_a smoke_n 2._o because_o he_o dehort_v they_o from_o observance_n of_o the_o judaical_a law_n now_o those_o fable_n &_o jewish_a vanity_n of_o idleness_n and_o daunceinge_n on_o the_o sabbath_n be_v never_o any_o ceremonial_a law_n and_o therefore_o can_v be_v refer_v to_o that_o forspeak_v of_o the_o law_n now_o if_o ignatius_n in_o this_o passage_n do_v not_o dehorte_a from_o any_o thing_n write_v in_o the_o law_n touch_v the_o sabbath_n but_o from_o other_o fable_n and_o tradition_n of_o their_o own_o than_o ignatius_n do_v not_o dissuade_v from_o keep_v the_o sabbath_n as_o it_o be_v command_v in_o the_o law_n of_o 4_o com_n but_o from_o keep_v of_o it_o according_a to_o their_o fabulouse_a and_o vain_a manner_n let_v these_o two_o thing_n

forbid_v a_o holy_a keep_n of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n such_o as_o stand_v with_o the_o law_n of_o god_n but_o he_o only_o forbid_v that_o carnal_a and_o superstitious_a keep_n of_o it_o fore_o

your_o new_a moon_n nor_o sabbath_n my_o soul_n hate_v your_o appoint_a feast_n etc._n etc._n now_o here_o god_n do_v not_o simple_o forbid_v sabbath_n but_o that_o irreligiouse_a profane_a judicial_a

now_o there_o be_v also_o sabbath_n which_o be_v sign_n of_o the_o creation_n weekly_a sabbath_n every_o 7_o day_n now_o these_o which_o be_v sabbath_n and_o sign_n of_o thing_n past_a as_o be_v the_o

if_o we_o do_v not_o call_v it_o our_o sabbath_n day_n because_o we_o keep_v it_o not_o the_o fault_n be_v only_o in_o ourselves_o wherefore_o to_o avoid_v all_o difference_n about_o the_o name_n

to_o prove_v the_o 7_o day_n sabbath_n be_v still_o in_o force_n be_v because_o the_o 8_o day_n sabbath_n or_o lord_n day_n be_v not_o in_o force_n and_o thus_o it_o may_v be_v frame_v if_o our_o now_o sabbath_n call_v the_o lord_n day_n which_o be_v eighther_o on_o the_o 8_o or_o on_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v not_o in_o force_n then_o must_v the_o 7_o day_n which_o be_v the_o day_n next_o foregoe_v the_o lord_n day_n be_v now_o in_o force_n but_o our_o now_o sabbath_n call_v the_o lord_n day_n which_o be_v on_o the_o 8_o or_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v not_o in_o force_n therefore_o the_o 7_o day_n which_o be_v next_o foregoe_v the_o lord_n day_n be_v now_o in_o force_n more_o brief_o thus_o if_o the_o 8_o day_n be_v not_o in_o force_n then_z the_o 7_o day_n be_v in_o force_n but_o the_o 8_o day_n be_v not_o in_o force_n ergo_fw-la the_o 7_o day_n be_v in_o force_n i_o prove_v the_o consequence_n to_o be_v good_a because_o eighther_o the_o 7_o or_o the_o 8_o day_n must_v be_v sabbath_n the_o one_o of_o they_o for_o of_o all_o the_o seven_o day_n in_o the_o week_n there_o be_v no_o scruple_n or_o question_n between_o they_o and_o i_o save_v only_o about_o these_o two_o day_n so_o as_o one_o of_o these_o two_o day_n must_v be_v sabbath_n by_o both_o our_o consent_n especial_o since_o we_o all_o hold_v it_o moral_a that_o one_o day_n in_o every_o 7._o must_v be_v a_o sabbath_n which_o to_o deny_v be_v great_a impiety_n i_o prove_v the_o minor_a that_o be_v that_o the_o 8_o day_n or_o lord_n day_n be_v not_o in_o force_n and_o this_o i_o prove_v because_o there_o be_v neither_o precept_n nor_o practice_v neither_o of_o christ_n nor_o of_o any_o of_o his_o apostle_n in_o scripture_n to_o put_v the_o lord_n day_n in_o force_n and_o this_o task_n i_o have_v particular_o and_o large_o make_v good_a in_o the_o first_o part_n of_o my_o book_n where_o i_o have_v show_v by_o way_n of_o answer_n that_o the_o lord_n day_n be_v not_o a_o sabbath_n day_n by_o diviue_v institution_n 2._o my_o 2_o argument_n be_v because_o the_o 7_o day_n sabbath_n be_v not_o abolish_v and_o it_o may_v thus_o be_v frame_v that_o which_o be_v not_o abolish_v that_o be_v now_o in_o force_n but_o the_o 7_o day_n sabbath_n be_v not_o abolish_v therefore_o the_o 7_o day_n sabbath_n be_v now_o in_o force_n i_o need_v not_o prove_v the_o mayor_n since_o it_o be_v plain_a to_o every_o eye_n for_o the_o minor_a this_o i_o have_v prove_v particular_o and_o large_o in_o the_o 3_o part_n of_o my_o book_n where_o by_o way_n of_o answer_n i_o have_v show_v that_o the_o 7_o day_n sabbath_n be_v not_o abolish_v 3._o my_o 3_o argument_n be_v because_o the_o 7_o day_n sabbath_n be_v never_o change_v and_o it_o may_v thus_o be_v frame_v that_o which_o be_v never_o alter_v nor_o change_v by_o christ_n or_o by_o his_o apostle_n that_o be_v still_o in_o force_n to_o this_o day_n but_o the_o 7_o day_n sabbath_n be_v never_o alter_v nor_o change_v by_o christ_n or_o by_o his_o apostle_n therefore_o the_o 7_o day_n sabbath_n be_v still_o in_o force_n to_o this_o day_n the_o mayor_n be_v clear_a of_o itself_o since_o thing_n once_o institute_v by_o

for_o any_o to_o suppose_v christ_n mean_v hereby_o to_o abolish_v the_o sabbath_n be_v a_o simple_a conceit_n for_o christ_n say_v of_o the_o moral_a law_n whereof_o the_o sabbath_n day_n be_v a_o

until_o christ_n death_n so_o than_o these_o thing_n do_v not_o argue_v any_o abolition_n of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n then_o but_o rather_o give_v we_o to_o understand_v how_o we_o christian_n be_v to_o keep_v the_o lord_n sabbath_n to_o the_o world_n end_n not_o in_o any_o superstitious_a strictness_n as_o if_o we_o may_v not_o on_o that_o day_n do_v work_n of_o mercy_n and_o necessity_n but_o the_o contrary_a for_o if_o christ_n allow_v it_o to_o the_o jew_n even_o before_o his_o death_n whilst_o no_o man_n doubt_v but_o all_o law_n moral_a &_o ceremonial_a be_v in_o force_n why_o shall_v

&_o second_o that_o christ_n as_o lord_n of_o the_o day_n do_v abolish_v the_o day_n i_o answer_v first_o to_o the_o former_a say_v i_o shall_v grant_v that_o christ_n the_o lord_n of_o the_o

and_o also_o so_o they_o remain_v ever_o after_o until_o the_o day_n of_o his_o death_n and_o passion_n for_o not_o until_o then_o be_v the_o handwriting_n of_o ordinance_n take_v out_o of_o the_o

of_o this_o text_n mat_n 12.8_o but_o the_o right_a use_n of_o the_o sabbath_n christ_n free_v it_o from_o the_o superstition_n of_o the_o pharise_n who_o hold_v that_o no_o work_n may_v be_v do_v
