substance_n be_v come_v the_o sign_n or_o thing_n shadow_v cease_v and_o i_o say_v the_o seventh-day-sabbath_n be_v so_o as_o a_o seventh-day-sabbath_n it_o cease_v also_o see_v again_o exod._n 31._o

but_o that_o though_o time_n as_o to_o worship_v god_n must_v needs_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o bowel_n of_o the_o moral_a law_n as_o moral_a yet_o they_o for_o good_a reason_n forbear_v to_o affix_v the_o seven_o day_n as_o that_o time_n there_o too_o they_o do_v it_o i_o say_v for_o good_a reason_n reason_n draw_v from_o the_o scripture_n or_o rather_o for_o that_o the_o scripture_n draw_v they_o so_o to_o conclude_v yet_o they_o cast_v not_o away_o the_o morality_n of_o a_o sabbath_n of_o rest_n to_o the_o church_n it_o be_v to_o be_v grant_v then_o that_o time_n for_o god_n worship_n abide_v for_o ever_o but_o the_o seven_o day_n vanish_v as_o a_o shadow_n and_o sign_n because_o such_o indeed_o it_o be_v as_o the_o scripture_n above_o cite_v declare_v as_o to_o the_o sanction_n thereof_o as_o a_o sabbath_n the_o law_n of_o nature_n than_o call_v for_o time_n but_o the_o god_n of_o nature_n assign_v it_o and_o have_v give_v power_n to_o his_o son_n to_o continue_v such_o

to_o be_v lord_n even_o of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n matth._n 12._o 9_o six_o i_o find_v by_o read_v god_n word_n that_o paul_n by_o authority_n apostolical_a take_v away_o the_o sanction_n of_o all_o the_o jew_n festival_n and_o sabbath_n this_o be_v manifest_a for_o that_o he_o leave_v the_o observation_n or_o non-observation_n of_o they_o as_o thing_n indifferent_a to_o the_o mind_n and_o discretion_n of_o the_o believer_n one_o man_n esteem_v one_o day_n above_o another_o another_o esteem_v every_o day_n alike_o let_v every_o man_n be_v full_o persuade_v in_o his_o own_o mind_n rom._n 14._o 5._o by_o this_o last_o clause_n of_o the_o verse_n let_v every_o man_n be_v full_o persuade_v in_o his_o own_o mind_n he_o do_v plain_o declare_v that_o such_o day_n be_v now_o strip_v of_o their_o sanction_n for_o none_o of_o god_n law_n while_o they_o retain_v their_o sanction_n be_v leave_v to_o the_o will_n and_o mind_n of_o the_o believer_n as_o to_o whether_o they_o will_v

long_o we_o be_v bind_v not_o to_o our_o mind_n but_o to_o that_o law_n but_o when_o a_o thing_n once_o sacred_a have_v lose_v its_o sanction_n than_o it_o fall_v as_o to_o faith_n and_o conscience_n among_o other_o common_a or_o indifferent_a thing_n and_o so_o the_o seventh-day-sabbath_n do_v again_o seven_o thus_o paul_n write_v to_o the_o church_n of_o coloss._n let_v no_o man_n judge_v you_o in_o meat_n or_o in_o drink_n or_o in_o respect_n of_o any_o holy_a day_n or_o of_o the_o new_a moon_n or_o of_o the_o sabbath_n which_o be_v a_o shadow_n of_o thing_n to_o come_v but_o the_o body_n be_v christ_n coloss._n 2._o 16_o 17._o here_o also_o as_o he_o serve_v other_o holiday_n he_o serve_v the_o sabbath_n he_o give_v a_o liberty_n to_o believer_n to_o refuse_v the_o observation_n of_o it_o and_o command_n that_o no_o man_n shall_v judge_v against_o they_o for_o their_o so_o do_v and_o as_o you_o read_v the_o reason_n of_o his_o so_o do_v be_v because_o the_o body_n the_o substance_n be_v come_v christ_n say_v he_o be_v the_o body_n or_o that_o which_o these_o thing_n be_v a_o shadow_n or_o figure_n of_o the_o body_n be_v christ._n nor_o have_v the_o apostle_n since_o

call_v the_o rest_n of_o god_n in_o it_o god_n rest_v from_o all_o his_o work_n hence_o he_o call_v it_o by_o way_n of_o eminency_n my_o sabbath_n and_o my_o holiday_n isai._n 58._o 13._o yet_o can_v that_o rest_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o typical_a for_o god_n never_o since_o the_o world_n begin_v real_o rest_v but_o in_o his_o son_n this_o be_v he_o say_v god_n in_o who_o i_o be_o well_o

it_o cease_v and_o be_v no_o long_o of_o obligation_n to_o bind_v the_o conscience_n to_o the_o observation_n thereof_o or_o of_o the_o sabbath_n he_o distinct_o single_v out_o this_o seven_o day_n as_o that_o which_o be_v a_o most_o noble_a shadow_n a_o most_o exact_a shadow_n and_o then_o put_v that_o with_o the_o other_o together_o say_v they_o be_v a_o shadow_n of_o thing_n to_o come_v and_o that_o christ_n have_v answer_v they_o all_o the_o body_n be_v christ._n eight_o no_o man_n will_v i_o think_v deny_v but_o that_o heb._n 4._o 4._o intend_v the_o seventh-day-sabbath_n on_o which_o god_n rest_v from_o all_o his_o work_n for_o the_o text_n do_v plain_o say_v so_o yet_o may_v the_o observe_a reader_n easy_o perceive_v that_o both_o it_o and_o the_o rest_n of_o canaan_n also_o make_v mention_n of_o vers_fw-la 5._o be_v typical_a as_o to_o a_o day_n make_v mention_v of_o vers_fw-la 7_o and_o 8._o which_o day_n he_o call_v another_o he_o will_v not_o afterward_o have_v make_v mention_n of_o another_o day_n if_o joshuah_n have_v give_v they_o rest_n he_o will_v not_o now_o if_o they_o have_v not_o that_o rest_n in_o joshuah_n day_n be_v sure_a they_o have_v it_o not_o by_o moses_n for_o he_o be_v still_o before_o all_o the_o rest_v therefore_o that_o moses_n give_v they_o and_o that_o joshua_n give_v they_o too_o be_v but_o typical_a of_o another_o day_n in_o which_o god_n will_v give_v they_o rest_n vers_n 9_o 10._o and_o whether_o the_o day_n to_o come_v be_v christ_n or_o heaven_n it_o make_v no_o matter_n it_o be_v enough_o that_o they_o before_o do_v fail_v as_o always_o shadow_n do_v and_o that_o therefore_o mention_v by_o david_n be_v and_o that_o afterward_o make_v of_o another_o day_n there_o remain_v therefore_o a_o rest_n to_o the_o people_n of_o god_n a_o rest_n to_o come_v of_o which_o the_o seven_o day_n in_o which_o god_n rest_v and_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n be_v a_o type_n which_o rest_n begin_v in_o christ_n now_o and_o shall_v be_v

a_o rest_n which_o stand_v not_o now_o in_o sign_n or_o shadow_n in_o the_o seven_o day_n or_o canaan_n but_o in_o the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o his_o kingdom_n to_o who_o and_o to_o which_o the_o

six_o nor_o be_v that_o altogether_o to_o be_v slight_v when_o he_o say_v when_o he_o bring_v his_o first_o beget_v into_o the_o world_n let_v all_o the_o angel_n of_o god_n worship_v he_o to_o wit_n at_o that_o very_a time_n and_o day_n heb._n 1._o 6._o i_o know_v not_o what_o our_o expositor_n say_v of_o this_o text_n but_o to_o i_o it_o seem_v to_o be_v mean_v of_o his_o resurrection_n from_o the_o dead_a both_o because_o the_o apostle_n be_v speak_v of_o that_o vers_n 5._o and_o close_v that_o argument_n with_o this_o text_n thou_o be_v my_o son_n this_o day_n have_v i_o beget_v thou_o and_o again_o i_o will_v be_v his_o father_n and_o he_o shall_v be_v my_o son_n and_o again_o when_o he_o bring_v his_o first-begotten_a into_o the_o world_n he_o say_v and_o let_v all_o the_o angel_n of_o god_n worship_v he_o so_o then_o for_o god_n bring_v of_o his_o first-begotten_a now_o into_o the_o world_n be_v by_o his_o raise_v he_o again_o from_o the_o dead_a after_o they_o by_o crucify_a of_o he_o have_v turn_v he_o out_o of_o the_o same_o thus_o than_o god_n bring_v he_o into_o the_o world_n never_o by_o they_o to_o be_v hurry_v out_o of_o it_o again_o for_o christ_n be_v now_o raise_v from_o the_o dead_a die_v no_o more_o death_n have_v no_o more_o dominion_n over_o he_o now_o say_v the_o text_n when_o he_o bring_v he_o thus_o into_o the_o world_n he_o require_v that_o worship_n be_v do_v unto_o he_o when_o that_o very_a day_n and_o that_o by_o all_o the_o angel_n of_o god_n and_o if_o by_o all_z than_o minister_n be_v not_o exclude_v and_o if_o not_o minister_n then_o not_o church_n for_o what_o be_v say_v to_o the_o angel_n be_v say_v to_o the_o church_n itself_o rev._n 2._o 1_o 7._o ch_z 2._o 8_o 11._o ch_z 2._o 12_o 17._o ch_z 2._o 18_o 29._o ch_z 3._o

the_o first_o let_v they_o also_o be_v ashamed_a to_o santasticalize_v the_o last_o the_o lord_n day_n be_v doubtless_o the_o day_n in_o which_o he_o rise_v from_o the_o dead_a to_o be_v sure_a it_o be_v not_o the_o old_a seven_o day_n for_o from_o the_o day_n that_o he_o arise_v to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o bible_n we_o find_v not_o that_o he_o do_v hang_v so_o much_o as_o one_o twist_n of_o

day_n for_o divine_a worship_n in_o the_o church_n of_o the_o saint_n and_o now_o i_o come_v to_o the_o text_n that_o be_v more_o express_a second_o then_o first_o this_o be_v the_o day_n in_o the_o

on_o which_o he_o rise_v from_o the_o dead_a he_o visit_v his_o people_n both_o when_o together_o and_o apart_o over_z and_o over_o and_o over_o as_o both_o luke_n and_o john_n do_v testify_v luk._n
