A93852	The royal law contended for, or, Some brief grounds serving to prove that the Ten Commandments are yet in full force, and shall so remain till heaven and earth pass away. Also the seventh day Sabbath, proved from the beginning, from the law, from the prophets, from Christ, from his apostles, to be a duty yet incumbent upon saints and sinners. / By a lover of peace with truth Edward Stennet.

faith_n in_o christ_n see_v adam_n have_v not_o sin_v and_o so_o have_v no_o need_n of_o a_o saviour_n and_o why_o shall_v we_o run_v into_o such_o

and_o as_o god_n do_v rest_v the_o seven_o day_n from_o all_o his_o work_n so_o they_o that_o enter_v into_o rest_n do_v cease_v from_o their_o own_o work_n as_o god_n do_v from_o he_o and_o this_o be_v not_o as_o soon_o as_o man_n believe_v for_o the_o apostle_n provoke_v himself_o and_o other_o to_o labour_n to_o enter_v into_o it_o which_o be_v believer_n and_o therefore_o if_o you_o will_v have_v the_o sabbath_n a_o type_n from_o this_o scripture_n though_o it_o be_v not_o where_o so_o call_v it_o must_v be_v a_o type_n of_o eternal_a rest_n which_o saint_n do_v enter_v into_o when_o they_o cease_v from_o their_o own_o work_n as_o god_n do_v from_o his_o and_o that_o will_v not_o be_v till_o they_o lie_v down_o this_o tabernacle_n which_o will_v not_o hurt_v the_o thing_n assert_v and_o indeed_o i_o can_v deny_v but_o the_o sabbath_n be_v a_o earnest_n of_o that_o rest_n and_o saint_n that_o be_v spiritual_a in_o the_o observation_n of_o it_o find_v it_o so_o and_o of_o great_a

this_o be_v a_o day_n of_o rest_n and_o delight_n be_v strip_v of_o all_o worldly_a encumbrance_n and_o devote_v to_o the_o lord_n to_o pray_v unto_o he_o and_o to_o praise_v his_o holy_a name_n and_o
