the_o grand_a warrant_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o by_o he_o then_o when_o he_o be_v the_o great_a son_n of_o man._n second_o we_o say_v that_o god_n never_o unhallowed_a or_o revoke_v any_o sanction_n which_o himself_o ordain_v during_o the_o time_n and_o purpose_n that_o be_v by_o he_o intend_v for_o they_o to_o continue_v in_o force_n and_o use_v for_o some_o divine_a constitution_n be_v enact_v to_o continue_v but_o for_o a_o set-time_n as_o the_o type_n be_v sacrifice_n circumcision_n passover_n tabernacle_n and_o this_o sabbath_n all_o which_o and_o many_o such_o be_v but_o ceremonial_a sanction_n but_o other_o be_v ordain_v by_o he_o to_o continue_v to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n as_o all_o the_o ten_o commandment_n which_o be_v sanction_n moral_a these_o god_n never_o yet_o revoke_v nor_o never_o will_v but_o the_o other_o sort_n which_o be_v but_o ceremonial_n and_o intend_v to_o last_v but_o during_o the_o pedagogie_n of_o his_o people_n and_o so_o for_o a_o certain_a limit_a time_n viz._n until_o the_o manifestation_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n in_o the_o flesh_n which_o be_v accomplish_v those_o temporary_a ordinance_n be_v to_o cease_v and_o this_o without_o any_o mutability_n on_o god_n part_n or_o sacrilege_n of_o men._n just_o as_o when_o a_o man_n give_v a_o pension_n or_o rend_v to_o a_o pious_a use_n for_o a_o limit_a time_n of_o ten_o twenty_o or_o thirty_o year_n and_o no_o long_o when_o that_o time_n be_v expire_v the_o pension_n may_v cease_v without_o any_o sacrilege_n of_o the_o donor_n hallow_a the_o principal_a question_n in_o this_o hallow_n which_o have_v most_o perplex_v the_o mind_n of_o many_o good_a christian_n be_v concern_v the_o time_n when_o god_n do_v actual_o hallow_v or_o set_v apart_o the_o seven_o day_n whether_o on_o the_o first_o seven_o day_n of_o the_o world_n or_o whether_o not_o before_o the_o day_n of_o moses_n and_o the_o egyptian_a deliverance_n to_o this_o we_o answer_v confident_o and_o resolute_o that_o although_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o god_n do_v rest_n on_o the_o first_o seven_o day_n of_o the_o world_n but_o so_o as_o have_v be_v at_o large_a show_v before_o yet_o he_o never_o appoint_v or_o hallow_v a_o weekly_a seven_o day_n for_o man_n rest_n until_o the_o day_n of_o moses_n our_o reason_n for_o this_o assertion_n be_v these_o first_o if_o the_o weekly_a seven_o day_n have_v be_v hallow_v at_o the_o beginning_n as_o a_o law_n it_o must_v have_v be_v either_o write_v in_o man_n heart_n as_o all_o moral_a law_n of_o god_n be_v ever_o since_o man_n be_v make_v or_o else_o it_o must_v have_v be_v open_o declare_v as_o a_o law_n positive_a but_o the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n be_v not_o write_v in_o man_n heart_n for_o if_o so_o than_o it_o must_v have_v bind_v all_o nation_n in_o all_o age_n which_o as_o yet_o it_o never_o do_v neither_o be_v iâ—_n then_o declare_v overt_o as_o a_o law_n positive_a for_o if_o so_o then_o certain_o we_o shall_v have_v find_v some_o mention_n or_o footstep_n of_o it_o in_o the_o history_n of_o the_o patriarch_n which_o live_v before_o moses_n but_o we_o â—ind_v nothing_o of_o it_o in_o all_o that_o long_a time_n and_o we_o be_v well_o assure_v that_o neither_o adam_n nor_o any_o of_o his_o posterity_n do_v ever_o so_o sabbatise_v until_o the_o day_n of_o moses_n this_o be_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o father_n general_o and_o of_o the_o church_n primitive_a second_o the_o preface_n before_o the_o ten_o moral_a law_n which_o contain_v the_o date_n or_o time_n of_o their_o
