shall_v be_v of_o this_o mind_n for_o if_o he_o do_v as_o he_o profess_v indeed_o love_v god_n above_o all_o ought_v he_o not_o to_o be_v more_o careful_a of_o god_n glory_n then_o of_o his_o own_o commodity_n &_o more_o see_v to_o god_n service_n then_o his_o own_o gain_n now_o we_o know_v that_o master_n suffer_v not_o their_o servant_n to_o be_v idle_a on_o the_o week_n day_n therefore_o if_o he_o love_v god_n he_o shall_v be_v so_o much_o more_o diligent_a over_o they_o that_o they_o neglect_v not_o the_o word_n of_o god_n on_o his_o day_n by_o how_o much_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n be_v more_o dear_a and_o precious_a to_o he_o than_o his_o private_a commodity_n for_o as_o he_o that_o be_v a_o true_a subject_n to_o the_o prince_n &_o love_v he_o indeed_o will_v not_o keep_v such_o a_o man_n in_o his_o house_n that_o will_v not_o be_v subject_a to_o his_o law_n so_o he_o that_o be_v himself_o right_o affect_v to_o god_n and_o his_o glory_n will_v not_o suffer_v such_o a_o profane_a person_n under_o his_o roof_n that_o will_v dishonour_v he_o open_o and_o not_o care_n to_o observe_v his_o sabbath_n second_o if_o one_o bear_v any_o love_n to_o his_o servant_n or_o child_n even_o for_o their_o own_o sake_n he_o must_v see_v to_o they_o that_o they_o break_v not_o the_o sabbath_n but_o that_o they_o come_v to_o such_o exercise_n where_o they_o may_v receive_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o the_o chief_a good_a to_o their_o soul_n always_o a_o good_a governor_n must_v govern_v for_o the_o good_a of_o those_o that_o be_v under_o he_o now_o what_o great_a good_n can_v he_o do_v to_o they_o then_o to_o use_v those_o mean_n whereby_o they_o may_v know_v god_n in_o christ_n jesus_n and_o be_v bring_v to_o salvation_n so_o that_o if_o one_o will_v not_o show_v a_o disloyal_a hart_n against_o god_n and_o unloving_a and_o unfaithful_a hart_n to_o his_o people_n that_o he_o care_v not_o for_o their_o salvation_n he_o must_v see_v that_o they_o keep_v the_o

must_v be_v careful_a over_o their_o servant_n in_o this_o regard_n for_o take_v this_o for_o a_o general_a rule_n he_o that_o will_v not_o be_v faithful_a to_o god_n will_v never_o be_v faithful_a to_o man_n he_o that_o have_v no_o care_n to_o serve_v god_n in_o duty_n of_o religion_n will_v have_v less_o care_n to_o serve_v his_o master_n in_o the_o duty_n of_o his_o call_n as_o indeed_o they_o have_v for_o if_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n and_o their_o own_o salvation_n will_v not_o move_v they_o why_o shall_v they_o be_v move_v for_o their_o master_n profit_n or_o business_n but_o he_o that_o serve_v god_n with_o a_o good_a conscience_n will_v serve_v his_o master_n with_o a_o good_a conscience_n and_o though_o his_o master_n be_v not_o present_a to_o rebuke_v he_o his_o own_o conscience_n will_v check_v he_o and_o when_o the_o fear_n of_o his_o master_n will_v not_o keep_v from_o idleness_n and_o untrustinesse_n the_o fear_n of_o god_n will_v keep_v he_o and_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n will_v restrain_v he_o else_o either_o they_o will_v do_v nothing_o or_o what_o they_o do_v be_v all_o for_o eye_n service_n to_o be_v see_v of_o man_n and_o when_o the_o master_n eye_n be_v off_o then_o by_o idleness_n or_o wastfulnesse_n or_o pilfer_v they_o will_v hurt_v one_o more_o than_o the_o faithful_a keep_n of_o the_o sabbath_n can_v hinder_v they_o for_o that_o will_v not_o hinder_v they_o at_o all_o but_o be_v a_o mean_n to_o bring_v the_o blessing_n of_o god_n on_o their_o labour_n in_o the_o week_n day_n as_o jacob_n a_o faithful_a servant_n to_o

therefore_o if_o we_o will_v show_v our_o love_n to_o god_n and_o to_o they_o and_o desire_v that_o they_o be_v faithful_a to_o we_o and_o god_n shall_v bless_v their_o labour_n in_o our_o affair_n bring_v they_o to_o the_o service_n of_o god_n and_o exercise_n of_o religion_n on_o the_o sabbath_n and_o have_v a_o care_n that_o they_o break_v not_o the_o holy_a day_n of_o the_o lord_n this_o serve_v for_o the_o reproof_n of_o those_o man_n which_o bear_v this_o mind_n towards_o their_o servant_n that_o so_o their_o own_o work_n be_v perform_v they_o care_v not_o how_o god_n work_n be_v

let_v they_o spend_v it_o even_o how_o they_o will_v they_o have_v free_a liberty_n from_o the_o master_n this_o show_v man_n to_o be_v lover_n of_o themselves_o more_o than_o lover_n of_o god_n and_o

that_o with_o a_o true_a hart_n be_v willing_a to_o be_v teach_v and_o to_o confound_v also_o and_o condemn_v and_o leave_v without_o excuse_n before_o god_n judgement_n seat_n such_o as_o will_v not_o yield_v to_o plain_n and_o strong_a reason_n draw_v out_o of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n but_o continue_v obstinate_a in_o their_o false_a conceit_n but_o because_o the_o point_n may_v be_v more_o plain_a and_o manifest_a it_o be_v good_a to_o answer_v some_o of_o their_o objection_n whereby_o they_o will_v overturn_v this_o plain_a truth_n now_o the_o grand_a objection_n be_v because_o we_o keep_v not_o the_o same_o sabbath_n that_o the_o jew_n do_v but_o the_o day_n be_v alter_v therefore_o they_o say_v we_o must_v keep_v none_o this_o be_v their_o argument_n of_o so_o great_a weight_n but_o how_o foolish_a it_o shall_v appear_v easy_o if_o we_o examine_v it_o a_o little_a more_o narrow_o for_o though_o we_o keep_v not_o the_o self_n same_o day_n that_o they_o do_v yet_o we_o have_v the_o same_o commandment_n &_o authority_n for_o our_o day_n that_o that_o they_o have_v for_o they_o therefore_o this_o day_n that_o we_o keep_v be_v call_v the_o lord_n day_n in_o revel_v 1._o where_o john_n say_v he_o be_v in_o the_o spirit_n upon_o the_o lord_n day_n afore_o it_o be_v call_v the_o day_n of_o rest_n because_o god_n rest_v on_o it_o from_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n but_o now_o it_o be_v call_v the_o lord_n day_n because_o christ_n jesus_n institute_v it_o as_o a_o special_a memorial_n of_o his_o resurrection_n &_o perfect_v of_o the_o work_n of_o our_o redemption_n for_o the_o apostle_n by_o the_o authority_n of_o that_o spirit_n which_o always_o assist_v they_o in_o their_o ministerial_a office_n do_v alter_v the_o day_n &_o themselves_o keep_v &_o ordain_v it_o to_o be_v keep_v in_o all_o the_o church_n as_o may_v appear_v 1._o cor._n 16._o 1._o where_o he_o say_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n when_o you_o meet_v together_o etc._n etc._n where_o the_o apostle_n show_v that_o the_o congregation_n of_o christ_n be_v wont_v on_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n to_o meet_v together_o for_o the_o performance_n of_o all_o holy_a duty_n of_o the_o number_n whereof_o collection_n for_o the_o poor_a be_v one_o because_o of_o the_o manifold_a persecution_n wherewith_o in_o the_o primative_a church_n they_o be_v more_o afflict_v and_o have_v

this_o day_n be_v institute_v by_o god_n in_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o keep_v by_o they_o and_o the_o church_n in_o their_o time_n &_o therefore_o as_o strong_o command_v we_o as_o the_o jew_n and_o be_v of_o no_o less_o force_n now_o then_o before_o then_o second_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o change_n and_o of_o our_o keep_v this_o day_n be_v no_o less_o than_o of_o their_o keep_v that_o day_n for_o when_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n be_v the_o great_a work_n that_o ever_o be_v do_v than_o the_o memorial_n of_o that_o be_v chief_o to_o be_v regard_v but_o now_o that_o a_o great_a &_o more_o excellent_a work_n be_v do_v namely_o the_o redemption_n of_o the_o world_n it_o be_v reason_n that_o the_o great_a work_n shall_v carry_v the_o credit_n of_o the_o day_n they_o rest_v the_o seven_o day_n because_o on_o that_o god_n rest_v from_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n we_o this_o eight_o day_n because_o in_o it_o christ_n rise_v again_o from_o the_o work_n of_o our_o redemption_n which_o be_v a_o great_a work_n cause_v a_o change_n of_o the_o day_n sith_o then_o the_o day_n be_v not_o change_v without_o good_a warrant_n and_o strong_a reason_n that_o alteration_n and_o vary_v of_o the_o day_n detract_v nothing_o from_o the_o truth_n and_o force_n of_o the_o commandment_n and_o whereas_o they_o say_v that_o the_o church_n may_v at_o their_o pleasure_n alter_v it_o that_o be_v not_o so_o for_o there_o can_v never_o be_v a_o authority_n great_a than_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o apostle_n nor_o a_o cause_n great_a than_o the_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o redemption_n of_o the_o church_n and_o therefore_o neither_o can_v the_o day_n be_v change_v for_o to_o make_v a_o new_a day_n where_o no_o such_o warrant_n do_v allow_v nor_o no_o cause_n occasion_n it_o be_v to_o take_v more_o upon_o they_o than_o be_v fit_a for_o if_o the_o jew_n in_o former_a time_n be_v bind_v to_o keep_v it_o holy_a have_v only_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n to_o think_v upon_o and_o to_o remember_v by_o the_o celebrate_n of_o their_o seven_o day_n then_o how_o much_o more_o be_v we_o bind_v to_o this_o reverence_n and_o a_o great_a since_o beside_o this_o benefit_n of_o our_o make_n we_o have_v a_o great_a of_o our_o redeem_n by_o the_o blood_n and_o death_n of_o christ_n add_v unto_o it_o so_o that_o any_o one_o of_o the_o two_o ought_v to_o sanctify_v it_o more_o rather_o than_o to_o cast_v it_o of_o all_o together_o and_o to_o be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o careful_a to_o give_v this_o day_n whole_o to_o god_n by_o how_o much_o he_o have_v show_v a_o great_a mercy_n to_o we_o so_o that_o we_o shall_v never_o speak_v or_o think_v of_o this_o change_n but_o we_o shall_v also_o call_v to_o mind_n this_o great_a benefit_n which_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o it_o if_o adam_n have_v cause_n to_o spend_v a_o day_n in_o praise_v god_n for_o his_o creation_n than_o we_o have_v great_a cause_n see_v beside_o that_o we_o have_v also_o the_o redemption_n to_o be_v thankful_a for_o and_o if_o this_o be_v a_o good_a argument_n we_o keep_v not_o the_o self_n same_o day_n that_o the_o jew_n do_v therefore_o the_o duty_n be_v abollish_v and_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o keep_v none_o then_o by_o the_o same_o reason_n one_o may_v conclude_v thus_o you_o see_v we_o have_v not_o the_o same_o sacrament_n for_o the_o outward_a seal_n that_o the_o jew_n have_v for_o they_o have_v circumcision_n and_o they_o have_v the_o pascall_n lamb_n what_o tell_v you_o i_o of_o the_o consecrate_v water_n and_o of_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n hallow_v the_o jew_n have_v no_o such_o matter_n since_o these_o sign_n be_v alter_v i_o think_v it_o be_v but_o a_o ceremony_n and_o we_o need_v not_o regard_v baptism_n &_o the_o supper_n this_o be_v no_o good_a argument_n in_o this_o case_n for_o though_o the_o shadow_n be_v other_o yet_o the_o substance_n be_v the_o same_o christ_n jesus_n be_v signify_v by_o our_o bread_n and_o wine_n as_o well_o as_o by_o their_o lamb_n and_o our_o baptism_n be_v the_o sacrament_n of_o regeneration_n as_o well_o as_o their_o circumcision_n therefore_o we_o shall_v not_o despise_v they_o but_o so_o much_o the_o more_o be_v careful_a to_o prepare_v ourselves_o for_o they_o because_o the_o service_n be_v more_o easy_a &_o the_o promise_n more_o lightsome_a if_o then_o it_o will_v not_o hold_v that_o we_o have_v no_o sacrament_n because_o the_o outward_a seal_n be_v alter_v than_o it_o be_v as_o weak_a a_o consequence_n that_o we_o have_v no_o seven_o day_n to_o be_v sanctify_v because_o the_o day_n be_v alter_v and_o we_o keep_v not_o the_o same_o that_o they_o do_v so_o that_o no_o proof_n can_v be_v gather_v from_o the_o vary_a of_o the_o day_n that_o the_o duty_n be_v abolish_v because_o the_o authority_n be_v as_o strong_a the_o reason_n as_o good_a and_o the_o same_o reason_n do_v not_o hold_v in_o other_o thing_n again_o they_o object_n that_o to_o a_o christian_n every_o day_n be_v a_o sabbath_n day_n and_o therefore_o we_o shall_v not_o restrain_v it_o to_o one_o day_n more_o than_o another_o but_o the_o answer_n to_o this_o be_v that_o it_o be_v most_o false_a for_o god_n do_v not_o require_v neither_o be_v a_o christian_n able_a to_o keep_v every_o day_n a_o sabbath_n day_n so_o long_o as_o they_o remain_v on_o earth_n indeed_o in_o heaven_n he_o shall_v keep_v a_o continual_a sabbath_n unto_o the_o lord_n but_o now_o so_o long_o as_o we_o live_v there_o be_v as_o much_o difference_n betwixt_o the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o otheir_o day_n as_o betwixt_o the_o consecrate_v bread_n we_o receive_v at_o the_o lord_n table_n and_o the_o common_a bread_n we_o receive_v at_o our_o own_o table_n this_o be_v true_a that_o every_o one_o must_v serve_v god_n on_o the_o six_o day_n and_o all_o his_o life_n long_o but_o on_o the_o seven_o day_n we_o must_v not_o only_o serve_v god_n

to_o keep_v it_o you_o let_v sin_n keep_v dominion_n in_o your_o hart_n all_o the_o week_n and_o then_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v dull_a and_o dead_a to_o all_o goodness_n on_o the_o seven_o day_n

first_o because_o we_o have_v so_o direct_a a_o item_n as_o we_o call_v it_o to_o remember_v this_o day_n second_o because_o whereas_o god_n content_v himself_o in_o all_o the_o other_o commandment_n to_o set_v they_o down_o either_o only_a affirmative_o or_o only_o negativelie_a he_o have_v not_o do_v so_o in_o this_o commandment_n but_o to_o set_v the_o deep_a impression_n in_o our_o heart_n have_v set_v it_o down_o both_o affirmativelie_a and_o negative_o keep_v it_o holy_a say_v he_o and_o as_o though_o that_o be_v not_o enough_o do_v no_o manner_n of_o work_n in_o it_o and_o then_o whereas_o other_o of_o the_o commandment_n for_o the_o most_o part_n have_v no_o reason_n annex_v to_o they_o in_o the_o decalogue_n though_o in_o the_o scripture_n else_o where_o they_o have_v this_o and_o the_o second_o commandment_n have_v diverse_a reason_n add_v unto_o they_o that_o man_n may_v have_v a_o great_a regard_n unto_o it_o therefore_o if_o we_o will_v do_v any_o thing_n for_o god_n

that_o we_o be_v ready_a to_o forget_v it_o but_o he_o will_v have_v we_o strive_v against_o this_o forgetfulness_n and_o then_o because_o we_o shall_v not_o forget_v but_o do_v it_o he_o urge_v it_o with_o many_o reason_n now_o then_o to_o forget_v this_o be_v it_o not_o a_o plain_a contempt_n and_o neglect_n it_o follow_v to_o keep_v it_o holy_a now_o the_o lord_n show_v what_o be_v to_o be_v
