act_v of_o observance_n towards_o god_n we_o be_v upon_o this_o ground_n immediate_o oblige_v unto_o they_o be_v natural_a worship_n due_a to_o god_n as_o our_o creator_n all_o natural_a worship_n

in_o this_o point_n sometime_o the_o word_n in_o this_o case_n be_v take_v by_o they_o that_o use_v it_o for_o that_o which_o be_v of_o perpetual_a right_n but_o that_o this_o be_v not_o the_o

moral_a positive_a and_o that_o moral_a positive_a be_v not_o in_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n perpetual_a be_v unquestionable_a and_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o some_o moral_a positive_a be_v not_o the_o facto_fw-la of_o perpetual_a right_n as_o the_o old_a seventh-day_n sabbath_n concern_v which_o day_n though_o there_o may_v be_v something_o ceremonial_a in_o the_o corporal_a rest_n thereof_o especial_o under_o the_o moysaicall_a dispensation_n yet_o the_o observe_v of_o that_o measure_n of_o time_n and_o that_o special_a day_n every_o week_n set_v a_o part_n for_o god_n solemn_a worship_n be_v not_o ceremonial_a nor_o yet_o natural_a but_o moral_a positive_a yet_o not_o perpetual_a beside_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n to_o hinder_v the_o perpetuity_n of_o some_o ceremonial_a law_n or_o worship_n if_o it_o please_v god_n to_o perpetuate_v it_o yea_o there_o be_v some_o ceremonial_a ordinance_n of_o divine_a worship_n now_o institute_v that_o be_v to_o endure_v to_o the_o consummation_n of_o all_o thing_n namely_o the_o two_o sacrament_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n the_o best_a distinguishing-term_n that_o i_o can_v find_v to_o express_v what_o be_v general_o mean_v by_o moral_a and_o ceremonial_a worship_n be_v that_o the_o former_a be_v substantial_a ●nd_v by_o itself_o divine_a worship_n the_o late_a be_v but_o a_o supplemental_a as_o a_o appurtenance_n to_o the_o former_a the_o better_a to_o express_v it_o and_o set_v it_o off_o and_o external_o to_o complete_a it_o i_o suppose_v the_o term_n complimental_a may_v here_o fit_o enough_o be_v use_v but_o that_o it_o sound_v ill_o from_o the_o sense_n which_o it_o have_v in_o common_a use_n and_o mere_a ceremonial_a person_n do_v indeed_o but_o compliment_n with_o god_n according_a to_o the_o common_a meaning_n of_o that_o word_n though_o ceremonial_a worship_n be_v but_o supplemental_a to_o that_o which_o be_v call_v moral_a and_o substantial_a yet_o be_v appoint_v of_o god_n it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v light_o esteem_v but_o to_o be_v value_v according_a to_o its_o importance_n and_o there_o be_v some_o part_n or_o kind_n thereof_o that_o be_v of_o high_a importance_n in_o religion_n as_o the_o sacrament_n and_o sacrify_v under_o the_o the_o old_a testament_n and_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o new-testament_n §_o 8._o the_o part_n of_o worship_n

that_o go_v to_o the_o make_v up_o of_o one_o entire_a divine_a service_n it_o import_v much_o to_o discern_v and_o distinguish_v right_o between_o worship_n itself_o and_o the_o accident_n thereof_o

these_o thing_n immediate_o and_o direct_o respect_n god_n and_o his_o honour_n to_o who_o the_o worship_n be_v direct_v but_o man_n and_o his_o convenience_n by_o who_o the_o worship_n be_v perform_v
