by_o god_n under_o the_o jewish_a law_n or_o invent_v by_o men._n for_o 1._o there_o be_v no_o expiation_n or_o satisfaction_n for_o sin_n under_o the_o gospel_n but_o only_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o therefore_o there_o be_v no_o place_n now_o for_o any_o expiatory_a rite_n and_o ceremony_n 2._o the_o gospel_n make_v no_o difference_n between_o legal_a cleanness_n and_o uncleanness_n and_o therefore_o distinction_n of_o meat_n and_o external_n wash_n and_o purification_n be_v now_o out_o of_o date_n 3._o nor_o be_v there_o any_o symbolical_a presence_n of_o god_n

some_o visible_a and_o sensible_a rite_n whereby_o god_n oblige_v himself_o to_o we_o and_o we_o to_o he_o this_o he_o call_v a_o fanatical_a principle_n but_o why_o i_o know_v not_o and_o say_v that_o this_o be_v destroy_v by_o my_o former_a principle_n of_o take_v away_o all_o rite_n that_o be_v act_n of_o religion_n this_o be_v a_o severe_a man_n who_o will_v not_o allow_v i_o to_o make_v

to_o nothing_o else_o that_o a_o institute_v religion_n be_v and_o must_v be_v found_v on_o a_o covenant_n that_o a_o covenant_n must_v be_v transact_v by_o visible_a and_o sensible_a rite_n for_o there_o can_v be_v a_o visible_a covenant_n nor_o a_o visible_a church_n found_v on_o this_o covenant_n without_o visible_a and_o sensible_a rite_n and_o this_o i_o suppose_v he_o will_v think_v a_o sufficient_a answer_n to_o what_o he_o say_v that_o on_o this_o principle_n i_o ought_v to_o teach_v that_o the_o mutual_a stipulation_n betwixt_o god_n and_o we_o must_v be_v make_v by_o his_o

without_o any_o external_a act_n of_o worship_n i_o never_o say_v much_o less_o do_v i_o assign_v it_o as_o my_o reason_n here_o against_o a_o mere_a external_a
he_o himself_o say_v this_o but_o suppose_v they_o neither_o feel_v nor_o own_v it_o may_v it_o not_o be_v as_o intolerable_a as_o the_o jewish_a law_n do_v the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n who_o be_v so_o fond_a of_o the_o rite_n of_o moses_n own_o it_o to_o be_v a_o heavy_a yoke_n and_o yet_o do_v not_o st._n peter_n say_v it_o be_v so_o superstition_n will_v bear_v very_o heavy_a yoke_n of_o

unsupportable_a yoke_n still_o to_o ingenuous_a and_o virtuous_a mind_n hence_o i_o proceed_v to_o a_o more_o particular_a consideration_n of_o their_o worship_n 1._o that_o most_o of_o their_o external_a rite_n be_v profess_o intend_v as_o expiation_n and_o satisfaction_n for_o sin_n this_o he_o dare_v not_o deny_v and_o therefore_o all_o their_o expiatory_a rite_n be_v no_o part_n of_o christian_a worship_n which_o allow_v no_o expiation_n for_o sin_n but_o the_o blood_n of_o christ._n second_o those_o distinction_n between_o meat_n which_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n call_v fast_v for_o a_o canonical_a fast_o be_v not_o to_o abstain_v from_o food_n but_o from_o such_o meat_n as_o be_v forbid_v on_o fast_a day_n can_v be_v no_o part_n of_o christian_a worship_n because_o the_o gospel_n allow_v of_o no_o distinction_n between_o clean_a and_o unclean_a thing_n and_o therefore_o of_o no_o distinction_n of_o meat_n neither_o for_o meat_n commend_v we_o not_o to_o god_n 1_o cor._n 8.8_o here_o be_v another_o misrepresentation_n that_o a_o canonical_a fast_o be_v not_o to_o abstain_v from_o food_n do_v he_o deny_v this_o yes_o he_o say_v this_o be_v most_o false_a 80._o but_o one_o meal_n be_v allow_v of_o on_o fast_v day_n a_o terrible_a penance_n this_o which_o most_o of_o our_o merchant_n and_o citizen_n endure_v all_o the_o year_n round_o and_o eat_v late_a too_o general_o than_o they_o do_v on_o fast_v day_n but_o be_v there_o no_o repast_n of_o wine_n and_o sweetmeat_n to_o be_v have_v at_o night_n for_o those_o who_o can_v purchase_v they_o i_o add_v there_o be_v no_o imaginable_a reason_n why_o it_o shall_v be_v a_o act_n of_o religion_n mere_o to_o abstain_v from_o flesh_n if_o flesh_n have_v no_o legal_a uncleanness_n and_o if_o it_o have_v we_o must_v all_o have_v be_v carthusian_n and_o never_o eat_v flesh_n more_o for_o how_o it_o shall_v be_v clean_o one_o day_n and_o unclean_a another_o be_v not_o easy_a to_o understand_v this_o be_v another_o of_o his_o misrepresentation_n for_o that_o be_v the_o word_n right_a or_o wrong_n he_o say_v i_o will_v insinuate_v that_o they_o judaize_v whereas_o i_o express_o say_v ibid._n that_o they_o do_v not_o judaize_v but_o do_v something_o more_o absurd_a for_o they_o do_v not_o make_v such_o a_o distinction_n between_o clean_a and_o unclean_a beast_n as_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n do_v and_o therefore_o be_v the_o more_o absurd_a in_o forbid_v to_o eat_v flesh_n or_o any_o thing_n that_o come_v of_o flesh._n but_o he_o say_v when_o god_n by_o jeremy_n praise_v the_o rechabite_v for_o abstain_v from_o wine_n be_v it_o because_o wine_n be_v hold_v by_o they_o to_o have_v a_o legal_a uncleanness_n no_o nor_o be_v wine_n flesh._n but_o be_v tame_v of_o the_o flesh_n the_o curb_v of_o sensuality_n no_o reason_n at_o all_o for_o abstinence_n and_o do_v abstinence_n consist_v mere_o in_o abstain_v from_o flesh_n will_v not_o good_a fish_n and_o good_a wine_n pamper_v the_o flesh_n too_o to_o place_v abstinence_n in_o delectu_fw-la ciborum_fw-la as_o in_o abstain_v from_o flesh_n be_v a_o senseless_a piece_n of_o superstition_n if_o it_o serve_v the_o end_n of_o
