observe_v the_o thing_n contain_v in_o the_o jew_n law_n which_o require_v man_n not_o to_o kill_v and_o steal_v do_v it_o follow_v that_o therefore_o the_o people_n in_o america_n observe_v the_o jew_n seventh-day_n sabbath_n be_v not_o these_o kind_n of_o arguing_n the_o same_o with_o mr._n coppinger_n for_o he_o say_v that_o the_o gentile_n do_v by_o nature_n the_o thing_n contain_v in_o the_o jew_n law_n and_o therefore_o they_o keep_v the_o jew_n sabbath_n but_o do_v not_o the_o contrary_a to_o this_o appear_v for_o be_v there_o not_o thousand_o of_o good_a people_n in_o england_n

the_o observation_n of_o that_o day_n be_v not_o moral_a the_o reason_n i_o shall_v give_v be_v because_o if_o a_o man_n be_v sick_a of_o a_o violent_a distemper_n that_o have_v bereave_v he_o of_o

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

first_o you_o say_v that_o there_o may_v be_v a_o absolute_a necessity_n to_o commit_v murder_n adultery_n and_o steal_v etc._n etc._n to_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o this_o be_v such_o a_o piece_n

consequent_o no_o necessity_n to_o break_v a_o law_n in_o nature_n by_o hate_v either_o god_n or_o their_o neighbour_n but_o second_o god_n give_v israel_n favour_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o

compute_v the_o seven_o day_n from_o the_o creation_n by_o reason_n that_o the_o sun_n stand_v still_o in_o joshua_n time_n and_o haste_v not_o to_o go_v down_o for_o a_o whole_a day_n and_o 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

case_n put_v a_o absolute_a necessity_n upon_o the_o world_n to_o be_v ignorant_a of_o this_o law_n therefore_o it_o can_v be_v moral_a the_o second_o argument_n which_o i_o urge_v to_o prove_v that_o the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n be_v not_o in_o force_n to_o the_o believe_a gentile_n be_v because_o they_o be_v not_o command_v by_o moses_n law_n to_o keep_v the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n my_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

that_o if_o the_o commadment_n be_v sign_n they_o must_v either_o be_v between_o god_n and_o israel_n or_o else_o between_o they_o and_o the_o devil_n but_o how_o do_v this_o appear_v may_v not_o it_o

the_o law_n shall_v be_v as_o frontlet_n between_o their_o eye_n etc._n etc._n plain_o show_v that_o god_n will_v distinguish_v this_o people_n by_o their_o law_n and_o privilege_n from_o all_o

to_o be_v high_o in_o favour_n with_o god_n and_o last_o their_o law_n some_o of_o they_o be_v call_v sign_n because_o they_o do_v signify_v something_o to_o come_v and_o so_o do_v their_o sabbath_n therefore_o the_o apostle_n call_v it_o a_o shadow_n col._n 2.17_o but_o i_o never_o hear_v that_o their_o law_n be_v sign_n between_o they_o and_o the_o devil_n mr._n tillam_n if_o the_o creation_n
