in_o james_n his_o epistle_n be_v to_o be_v do_v by_o the_o elder_n of_o the_o church_n and_o therefore_o the_o instance_n do_v not_o reach_v the_o case_n hereupon_o mr._n ives_n ingenuous_o confess_v

one_o that_o stand_v by_o however_o it_o be_v observable_a that_o the_o instance_n of_o anoint_v with_o oil_n be_v not_o a_o sufficient_a instance_n to_o abate_v the_o strength_n of_o the_o syllogism_n for_o the_o intent_n of_o the_o syllogism_n be_v to_o show_v that_o the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n be_v no_o moral_a precept_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o last_o argument_n that_o be_v bring_v to_o prove_v that_o the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n be_v not_o command_v by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n and_o the_o instance_n be_v in_o a_o institution_n that_o be_v not_o moral_a so_o that_o the_o

otherwise_o doubtless_o both_o under_o law_n and_o gospel_n it_o be_v like_o one_o may_v find_v some_o particular_a institution_n that_o we_o read_v of_o which_o we_o shall_v hear_v of_o no_o

instance_n be_v far_o and_o wide_o from_o the_o case_n in_o hand_n for_o the_o intent_n of_o the_o argument_n be_v that_o if_o christ_n have_v enforce_v the_o seven_o day_n upon_o believer_n as_o a_o moral_a law_n to_o be_v constant_o observe_v some_o will_v either_o have_v be_v blame_v for_o break_v or_o commend_v for_o keep_v of_o i●_n and_o this_o be_v true_a of_o all_o moral_a law_n be_v

with_o he_o mr._n ives_n i_o come_v now_o to_o another_o argument_n which_o take_v as_o follow_v if_o believe_v gentile_n by_o a_o apostolical_a toleration_n may_v esteem_v one_o day_n above_o another_o or_o every_o day_n as_o they_o be_v persuade_v in_o their_o own_o mind_n then_o they_o be_v not_o require_v by_o christ_n to_o keep_v the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n but_o believe_v gentile_n

which_o they_o be_v to_o gather_v manna_n and_o express_o command_v the_o rest_v upon_o the_o seventh-day_n but_o in_o the_o 14_o of_o the_o rom._n neither_o god_n nor_o the_o apostle_n put_v any_o

they_o when_o god_n do_v not_o but_o than_o say_v mr._n tillam_n if_o you_o do_v not_o restrain_v this_o word_n every_o day_n than_o you_o do_v overthrow_v the_o keep_n of_o any_o day_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o we_o may_v very_o easy_o deliver_v ourselves_o out_o of_o the_o hand_n of_o this_o absurdity_n if_o that_o be_v the_o business_n in_o question_n as_o for_o instance_n we_o have_v

sabbath_n and_o last_o i_o have_v more_o chief_o insist_v and_o do_v still_o insist_v upon_o this_o reason_n viz._n that_o the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n be_v intend_v by_o the_o apostle_n in_o col._n 2.16_o because_o sabbath_n be_v there_o mention_v with_o new_a moon_n and_o feast_n etc._n etc._n and_o throughout_o the_o whole_a bible_n wherever_o sabbath_n be_v mention_v with_o new_a moon_n and_o

else_o to_o show_v i_o a_o text_n where_o sabbath_n be_v mention_v with_o new_a moon_n and_o the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n not_o intend_v because_o no_o scripture_n be_v of_o a_o private_a

likewise_o the_o sun_n go_v backward_o ten_o degree_n in_o hezekiahs_n time_n which_o be_v almost_o half_a a_o day_n by_o reason_n whereof_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n be_v never_o able_a to_o make_v a_o perfect_a account_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n from_o the_o creation_n three_o a_o man_n can_v know_v the_o seven_o day_n from_o the_o four_o but_o by_o tradition_n therefore_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n be_v not_o moral_a as_o for_o instance_n suppose_v a_o man_n sick_a of_o a_o violent_a distemper_n that_o bereave_v he_o of_o his_o sense_n when_o he_o come_v to_o his_o

law_n be_v in_o force_n to_o require_v any_o thing_n of_o the_o gentile_n that_o be_v not_o express_o and_o particular_o require_v of_o they_o by_o christ_n or_o his_o apostle_n than_o we_o may_v by_o

last_o argument_n viz._n that_o the_o gentile_n be_v not_o require_v by_o christ_n to_o keep_v the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n first_o because_o he_o have_v not_o express_o require_v any_o such_o

to_o the_o believe_a gentile_n but_o this_o argument_n do_v meet_v with_o two_o objection_n the_o one_o be_v that_o this_o can_v not_o be_v understand_v of_o every_o day_n according_a to_o the_o letter_n of_o the_o text_n because_o the_o apostle_n give_v a_o toleration_n to_o eat_v all_o thing_n and_o yet_o the_o holy_a ghost_n act._n 15._o forbid_v the_o eat_n of_o blood_n and_o thing_n strangle_v etc._n etc._n in_o like_a manner_n say_v they_o must_v we_o restrain_v the_o word_n every_o day_n to_o be_v understand_v of_o every_o day_n but_o the_o sabbath_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v put_v a_o restriction_n upon_o the_o word_n every_o thing_n but_o neither_o christ_n the_o holy_a ghost_n nor_o the_o apostle_n have_v put_v a_o restriction_n upon_o this_o word_n every_o day_n therefore_o no_o mortal_a man_n ought_v to_o take_v that_o liberty_n to_o restrain_v the_o word_n of_o a_o text_n when_o the_o holy_a spirit_n do_v not_o restrain_v they_o the_o second_o thing_n object_v against_o this_o argument_n from_o rom._n 14._o be_v this_o viz._n that_o if_o we_o be_v at_o liberty_n and_o under_o no_o restraint_n but_o may_v keep_v every_o day_n alike_o then_o there_o be_v no_o reason_n to_o observe_v any_o day_n the_o answer_n to_o this_o objection_n make_v way_n for_o the_o last_o thing_n intend_v which_o be_v to_o show_v that_o though_o christ_n have_v set_v we_o at_o liberty_n from_o those_o moysaicall_a institution_n for_o the_o observation_n of_o day_n and_o have_v make_v all_o day_n alike_o in_o respect_n of_o any_o moysaicall_a sanctity_n yet_o it_o do_v not_o therefore_o follow_v that_o we_o may_v spend_v every_o day_n to_o the_o service_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o choose_v whether_o we_o will_v set_v apart_o any_o time_n to_o the_o service_n of_o god_n as_o i_o have_v already_o hint_v page_n 90._o for_o first_o god_n have_v free_v we_o from_o that_o place_n of_o worship_n by_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n unto_o which_o both_o jew_n and_o proselyte_n be_v enjoin_v to_o come_v up_o to_o worship_n which_o be_v in_o the_o temple_n at_o jerusalem_n and_o now_o christ_n have_v make_v every_o place_n alike_o in_o that_o one_o place_n have_v no_o more_o legal_a or_o moysaicall_a sanctity_n than_o another_o do_v it_o therefore_o follow_v that_o christian_n may_v abuse_v this_o liberty_n and_o choose_v whether_o they_o will_v meet_v to_o worship_n god_n in_o any_o place_n or_o no_o no_o more_o do_v it_o follow_v that_o because_o christ_n have_v make_v all_o day_n alike_o in_o respect_n of_o any_o moysaicall_a sanctity_n that_o therefore_o we_o may_v choose_v whether_o we_o will_v keep_v any_o day_n at_o all_o again_o second_o christ_n have_v set_v we_o free_a from_o those_o moysaicall_a law_n which_o god_n make_v for_o the_o maintenance_n of_o the_o levitical_a priesthood_n and_o legal_a ministry_n and_o have_v not_o enjoin_v we_o how_o much_o or_o how_o little_a the_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n shall_v be_v allow_v do_v it_o therefore_o follow_v that_o we_o may_v choose_v whether_o we_o will_v allow_v they_o any_o thing_n or_o nothing_o in_o like_a manner_n it_o do_v not_o follow_v because_o christ_n have_v take_v away_o the_o moysaicall_a institution_n for_o the_o observation_n of_o day_n that_o therefore_o we_o may_v choose_v whether_o we_o will_v observe_v any_o day_n or_o any_o time_n for_o the_o worship_n and_o service_n of_o god_n but_o to_o this_o it_o be_v object_v that_o though_o christ_n have_v take_v away_o that_o kind_n of_o maintenance_n yet_o he_o have_v ordain_v that_o they_o which_o preach_v the_o gospel_n shall_v live_v of_o the_o gospel_n 1_o cor._n 9.1_o i_o answer_v in_o like_a manner_n that_o though_o he_o have_v take_v away_o those_o moysaicall_a observation_n of_o day_n and_o time_n yet_o we_o be_v under_o a_o command_n to_o observe_v a_o time_n to_o worship_n as_o well_o as_o a_o maintenance_n for_o minister_n my_o reason_n be_v first_o because_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n have_v teach_v all_o people_n to_o set_v apart_o some_o time_n to_o worship_n and_o serve_v their_o god_n for_o if_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n do_v enjoin_v man_n to_o worship_n it_o do_v also_o enjoin_v they_o to_o observe_v some_o time_n in_o which_o they_o ought_v to_o worship_n after_o this_o manner_n the_o apostle_n argue_v in_o the_o forecited_a scripture_n for_o the_o maintenance_n of_o the_o gospel-ministery_n show_v that_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n teach_v that_o they_o which_o plant_v a_o vineyard_n ought_v to_o eat_v of_o the_o fruit_n thereof_o and_o that_o they_o which_o plough_n shall_v plough_v in_o hope_n to_o be_v partaker_n of_o their_o hope_n the_o like_a reason_n if_o not_o much_o great_a he_o urge_v why_o they_o that_o sow_v spiritual_a thing_n shall_v partake_v of_o temporal_a thing_n so_o that_o though_o god_n have_v free_v we_o from_o that_o maintenance_n of_o minister_n and_o that_o place_n of_o worship_n that_o be_v command_v in_o the_o law_n yet_o there_o remain_v a_o moral_a obligation_n upon_o we_o to_o observe_v some_o place_n to_o worship_n god_n in_o and_o also_o to_o provide_v a_o competent_a maintenance_n for_o those_o that_o administer_v spiritual_a thing_n unto_o we_o in_o like_a manner_n there_o remain_v a_o moral_a obligation_n upon_o we_o to_o observe_v a_o time_n to_o worship_n god_n though_o we_o be_v free_v from_o all_o those_o day_n and_o time_n that_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n command_v his_o disciple_n to_o observe_v but_o 2._o this_o do_v not_o only_o appear_v from_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n but_o from_o the_o scripture_n also_o which_o command_n that_o we_o shall_v not_o forsake_v the_o assemble_v of_o ourselves_o together_o as_o the_o manner_n of_o some_o

not_o command_v any_o thing_n contrary_a &_o the_o command_n of_o christ_n in_o command_v we_o to_o observe_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n appear_v because_o christ_n have_v not_o leave_v
