apart_o long_o before_o eleven_o whatsoever_o be_v a_o simple_a moral_a precept_n or_o one_o of_o the_o ten_o commandment_n as_o material_o so_o the_o holy_a ghost_n do_v convince_v all_o believer_n of_o now_o under_o the_o gospel_n as_o i_o have_v show_v before_o and_o also_o he_o reprove_v they_o for_o the_o neglect_n or_o breach_n of_o all_o such_o precept_n but_o the_o holy_a ghost_n do_v not_o convince_v believer_n it_o be_v their_o duty_n to_o observe_v the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n for_o reprove_v they_o for_o the_o neglect_n or_o breach_n of_o ●t_a though_o they_o work_v and_o bear_v burden_n on_o that_o as_o well_o as_o on_o any_o other_o day_n of_o the_o week_n therefore_o it_o be_v no_o moral_a precept_n twelve_o that_o which_o be_v a_o pure_a moral_a precept_n be_v

a_o law_n to_o we_o as_o in_o the_o hand_n of_o jesus_n christ_n sermon_n vi._n prove_v that_o the_o law_n of_o the_o decalogue_n be_v give_v to_o no_o people_n but_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n

this_o i_o have_v prove_v by_o twelve_o argument_n i_o shall_v now_o proceed_v and_o give_v you_o the_o next_o reason_n why_o it_o be_v not_o the_o duty_n of_o believe_a gentile_n to_o keep_v the_o
